+Casablanca Progress and Milestones
+==================================
+
+The CIA project has met a number of milestones:
+
+| -Contributed code changes to the VNSDK and produced an arm container
+  image. -Migrated OOF/HAS project to ONAP Normative image which reduced
+  the image size by 70%. -Developed, reviewed and published 8 general
+  guidelines for building container images -Developed, reviewed, and
+  published 12 container build instructions -Developed, reviewed, and
+  published 6 image minimization guidelines to reduce image footprint
+  -Developed and coded three tutorials to educate ONAP projects and PTLs
+  on how to apply image minimization guidelines. -Defined a generic
+  build process for ONAP that will be container images-friendly.
+  -Defined a set of platform-agnostic ONAP Normative Base Images that
+  will contribute to the minimization of ONAP container images'
+  footprint
+| -Analyzed 150 Dockerfiles and developed a migration path from the 53
+  large base images to 21 smaller, normative, platform-agnostic base
+  images. -Performed an assessment of the SO project and identified
+  opportunities for improvement.

+Description
+-----------
+
+The container build processes used by ONAP projects generates container
+images that are larger than they should be. As a result, the
+develop-build-test-deploy workflow takes a long time and consumes a lot
+of resources.
+
+The ONAP community has identified this delay as one of the main pain
+points.
+
+Furthermore, large image size has a detrimental effect on deployability.
+In fact,operators consider image minimization as one of the main
+priorities.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+The image minimization tutorials introduce a set of guidelines for the
+minimization of container images.
+
+Users may choose to simply read through the tutorial or run the
+experiments; which is highly recommended.
+
+Each tutorial guides the user through an experiment that demonstrates,
+in a tangible manner, the benefits of following each guideline.
+
+The expectation is that, with each experiment, userss will gain insight
+into the value of the guideline and the positive impact on reducing
+ONAP's footprint.
