 **Other**
 
 - Limitations, Constraints and other worthy notes
 
-  - It is impossible for us to test all aspect of the application. Scope of testing done in Beijing is captured on the following wiki: https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/APPC+Beijing+Testing+Scope+and+Status
-  - Currently APPC only supports OpenStack
-  - OpenStack Hypervisorcheck is turned off by default. If you want to invoke this functionality via the appc.properties, you need to enable it and ensure you have Admin level access to OpenStack.
-  - Integration with MultiCloud is supported for Standalone Restart (i.e., not via DGOrchestrator). For any other action, such as Stop, Start, etc.. via MultiCloud requires the MultiCloud identity URL to be either passed in the payload or defined in appc.properties.
-  - APPC needs Admin level access for Tenant level operations. 
-  - Currently, the "ModifyConfig" API and the implementation in the Master Directed Graph is only designed to work with the vFW Closed-Loop Demo.
