-=== TO BE UPDATED ===
+ONAP is a comprehensive collection of Network Automation functions, including
+orchestration, management, and automation of network and edge computing
+services for network operators, cloud providers, and enterprises.
+
+The ONAP Oslo release continues the ONAP Streamlining evolution, advancing
+individual ONAP components and clusters, enhancing security, modernizing
+environments, and supporting intent-based declarative solutions and GenAI
+capabilities.
+
+The Oslo key features as follows:
+
+- **Security Enhancements**: ONAP projects have addressed critical security
+ concerns by converting ports to HTTPS, removing hard-coded passwords,
+ enabling Kubernetes pods to operate with non-root privileges, and mitigating
+ Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs). These measures have
+ significantly bolstered the platform’s security. Additionally, by leveraging
+ industry-standard/de facto security protocol and mechanisms such as
+ Istio Service Mesh and Ingress Gateway, ONAP ensures secure inter- and
+ intra-component communications.
+- **Platform Modernization**: Components such as the Common Controller Software
+ Development Kit (CCSDK), Configuration Persistence Service (CPS),
+ Usecase User Interface (UUI), Portal-NG and Policy Framework were upgraded
+ to Java 17. Additionally, various software versions updates ensure that ONAP
+ leverages the latest software development frameworks.
+- **ONAP Streamlining Evolution**: This initiative makes ONAP components
+ modular and independent through interface abstraction, loose coupling and
+ CI/CD. As a result, ONAP has evolved into a collection of individual network
+ orchestration functions, allowing the industry to pick and choose specific
+ components and enabling flexible and dynamic function adoption.
+- **Intent-based Declarative and GenAI Solutions**: Supports generative AI
+ solutions powered by large language models (LLMs), and includes data service
+ enhancements (domain-specific datasets) of Intent-driven networks and
+ Model-As-A-Service (MAAS).
+- **Industry Standard-Based Network Interface Upgrade**: CCSDK/SDNC now
+ supports an RFC8040-compliant network interface.
+- **OpenSSF Gold Standard Achievement**: The CPS and Policy Framework projects
+ have achieved the Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) Gold Badging
+ standard, demonstrating ONAP’s commitment to high-quality, secure, and
+ reliable open-source software development.
-ONAP is evolving. We took efforts in streamlining processes and roles and
-NewDelhi release is the first one with agreed simplified software development
-life cycle governance.
-
-OpenSSF Gold Standard
----------------------
-
-We are proud to announce that first ONAP project achieved OpenSSF Gold
-standard. It will give ONAP consumers great confidence in the quality,
-security, and reliability of CPS.
-
-Java 17
--------
-
-First ONAP projects (CCSDK, CPS, UUI and Policy) completed their upgrades to
-Java 17. Spring boot (uplift to v3.1.2) and OpenApi 3 upgrades were also
-performed. These upgrades allow benefits of patched vulnerabilities and
-software efficiencies in the latest versions.
-
-CPS
----
-
-ONAP CPS project continued efforts in improvement of read/write, query
-operations, and huge reduction of memory consumption allowing for improved
-query performance and improve stability.
-
-Modeling
---------
-
-Modeling project added provision of YANG modules automation tools, which helps
-improve the YANG development efficiency and check the version update of the
-YANG model.
-
-OOM
----
-
-OOM project team added support for Gateway-API in Ingress template (13.0.1) as
-well as support for mariadb-operator (13.0.2). All ONAP MariaDB instances will
-now be created with the latest version by default using the mariaDB-operator.
-Added Galera clients (e.g. SO, SDNC) will use access to "primary" pod to avoid
-"Deadlocks". Additionally added default role creation to ServiceAccount for
-better access management.
-
-SDC
----
-
-SDC implemented-services update capability directly in yaml was added, more
-comprehensive support for defining behavior of interface operations and
-adaptability to define CSAR structure and content to suit the requirements of
-individual models.
-
-CCSDK
------
-
-CCSDK continued maintaining alignment with OpenDaylight release schedule by
-upgrading to OpenDaylight Argon version, Service Release 2. This allows latest
-ONAP user to make use of latest OpenDaylight software when they use latest
-release of ONAP.
-
-Portal-NG
----------
-
-We introduced new Portal-NG as a maintained alternative to the unmaintained
-Portal project. Allows ONAP user to make informed decisions on software use of
-maintained and unmaintained projects.
