+Abstract
+========
+
+This document compiles the release notes for the Colorado 1.0 release of
+OPNFV when using Fuel as a deployment tool, with an AArch64 (only) target
+node pool.
+
+===============
+Important notes
+===============
+
+These notes provides release information for the use of Fuel as deployment
+tool for the AArch64 Colorado 1.0 release of OPNFV.
+
+The goal of the AArch64 Colorado release and this Fuel-based deployment process
+is to establish a lab ready platform accelerating further development
+of the OPNFV on AArch64 infrastructure.
+
+Due to early docker and nodejs support on AArch64, we will still use an
+x86_64 Fuel Master to build and deploy an AArch64 target pool.
+
+Although not currently supported, mixing x86_64 and AArch64 architectures
+inside the target pool will be possible later.
+
+Carefully follow the installation-instructions provided in *Reference 13*.
+
+=======
+Summary
+=======
+
+For AArch64 Colorado, the typical use of Fuel as an OpenStack installer is
+supplemented with OPNFV unique components such as:
+
+- `OpenDaylight <http://www.opendaylight.org/software>`_ version "Beryllium SR3" [1]_ - 'http://www.opendaylight.org/software'
+
+- `Open vSwitch for NFV <https://wiki.opnfv.org/ovsnfv>`_ 'https://wiki.opnfv.org/ovsnfv'
+
+- `BGPVPN <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/networking-bgpvpn>`_ 'http://docs.openstack.org/developer/networking-bgpvpn/'
+
+The following OPNFV plugins are not yet ported for AArch64:
+
+- `ONOS <http://onosproject.org/>`_ version "Drake" - 'http://onosproject.org/'
+
+- `Service function chaining <https://wiki.opnfv.org/service_function_chaining>`_ 'https://wiki.opnfv.org/service_function_chaining'
+
+- `SDN distributed routing and VPN <https://wiki.opnfv.org/sdnvpn>`_ 'https://wiki.opnfv.org/sdnvpn'

+
+As well as OPNFV-unique configurations of the Hardware- and Software stack.
+
+This Colorado artifact provides Fuel as the deployment stage tool in the
+OPNFV CI pipeline including:
+
+- Documentation built by Jenkins
+
+ - overall OPNFV documentation
+
+ - this document (release notes)
+
+ - installation instructions
+
+ - build-instructions
+
+- The Colorado Fuel installer image AArch64 (.iso) built by Jenkins
