8. We are hoping that all partners work together to build the healthy
ecosystem and accelerate the maturity of SDN and NFV.
We are expecting that ONAP and other open source projects and SDOs
strengthen corporation to promote industrial innovation and transformation.
We are waiting for more participants to join this project and promote ONAP
to be a successful open source community.
