+
+Important notes
+===============
+
+OPNFV Doctor project started as a requirement project and identified gaps
+between "as-is" open source software (OSS) and an "ideal" platform for NFV.
+Based on this analysis, the Doctor project proposed missing features to
+upstream OSS projects. After those features were implemented, OPNFV installer
+projects integrated the features to the OPNFV platform and the OPNFV
+infra/testing projects verified the functionalities in the OPNFV Labs.
+
+For Euphrates release, the Doctor project focused primarily on extending to
+network state and refactoring testing code by python.
+
+New features
+============
+
+Doctor now supports network state handling where VIM tells you the actual data
+plane port state, utilizing the new feature called `port-dp-status`_ developed
+in OpenStack Neutron as the result of our upstreaming efforts.
+
+.. _port-data-plane-status: https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/neutron-specs/specs/backlog/ocata/port-data-plane-status.html
+
+Installer support and verification status
+=========================================
+
+Integrated features
+-------------------
+
+The testing code for doctor test cases are enhanced by refactoring in python,
+and supporting collectd monitor.
+
+The python refactoring improves readability and maintainability of the testing
+code in the Doctor repository. This would help Doctor developers as well as
+engineers who are referring OPNFV.
+
+From the Euphrates release, key integrated feature is:
+
+* **collectd as Doctor Monitor**
+
+ This is experimental, as CI job is not enabled yet. But, you can see and test
+ with collectd integrated in Doctor reference architecture.
+
+OPNFV installer support matrix
+------------------------------
+
+(TBC)
+
+In the Brahmaputra release, only one installer (Apex) supported the deployment
+of the basic Doctor framework by configuring Doctor features. In the Euphrates
+release, integration of Doctor features progressed in other OPNFV installers.

+our own test scenario running in OPNFV CI pipeline yet.
+
+Documentation updates
+=====================
+
+* **maintenance detailed spec**
+
+  The maintenance design document was filed, including suggestions how to
+  leverage features in OpenStack while developing automated maintenance
+  capability.
+
+* **Inspector design guideline**
+
+Known issues
+============
+
+* Testing code for `port-data-plane-status` in Doctor repository was disabled
+  in 5.0, as we have problem in neutron client load in CI job container.
