+OPNFV Fuel Release Notes
+************************
+
Abstract
========
-This document compiles the release notes for the Fraser release of
-OPNFV when using Fuel as a deployment tool. This is an unified documentation
-for both x86_64 and aarch64 architectures. All information is common for
-both architectures except when explicitly stated.
+This document provides the release notes for ``Gambia`` release with the Fuel
+deployment toolchain.
+Starting with this release, both ``x86_64`` and ``aarch64`` architectures
+are supported at the same time by the ``fuel`` codebase.

Important Notes
===============
-These notes provides release information for the use of Fuel as deployment
-tool for the Fraser release of OPNFV.
+This is the OPNFV ``Gambia`` release that implements the deploy stage of the
+OPNFV CI pipeline via Fuel.
-The goal of the Fraser release and this Fuel-based deployment process is
+Fuel is based on the `MCP`_ installation tool chain.
+More information available at `Mirantis Cloud Platform Documentation`_.
+
+The goal of the ``Gambia`` release and this Fuel-based deployment process is
to establish a lab ready platform accelerating further development
of the OPNFV infrastructure.
-Carefully follow the installation-instructions.
+Carefully follow the installation instructions.
-=======
Summary
=======
-For Fraser, the typical use of Fuel as an OpenStack installer is
-supplemented with OPNFV unique components such as:
-
-- `OpenDaylight <https://www.opendaylight.org/software>`_
-- `Open vSwitch for NFV <https://wiki.opnfv.org/ovsnfv>`_
+``Gambia`` release with the Fuel deployment toolchain will establish an OPNFV
+target system on a Pharos compliant lab infrastructure. The current definition
+of an OPNFV target system is OpenStack Queens combined with an SDN
+controller, such as OpenDaylight. The system is deployed with OpenStack High
+Availability (HA) for most OpenStack services.
-As well as OPNFV-unique configurations of the Hardware and Software stack.
+Fuel also supports non-HA deployments, which deploys a
+single controller, one gateway node and a number of compute nodes.
-This Fraser artifact provides Fuel as the deployment stage tool in the
-OPNFV CI pipeline including:
+Fuel supports ``x86_64``, ``aarch64`` or ``mixed`` architecture clusters.
-- Documentation built by Jenkins
+Furthermore, Fuel is capable of deploying scenarios in a ``baremetal``,
+``virtual`` or ``hybrid`` fashion. ``virtual`` deployments use multiple VMs on
+the Jump Host and internal networking to simulate the ``baremetal`` deployment.
- - overall OPNFV documentation
+For ``Gambia``, the typical use of Fuel as an OpenStack installer is
+supplemented with OPNFV unique components such as:
- - this document (release notes)
+- `OpenDaylight`_
+- Open Virtual Network (``OVN``)
- - installation instructions
+As well as OPNFV-unique configurations of the Hardware and Software stack.
-- Automated deployment of Fraser with running on baremetal or a nested
- hypervisor environment (KVM)
+This ``Gambia`` artifact provides Fuel as the deployment stage tool in the
+OPNFV CI pipeline including:
-- Automated validation of the Fraser deployment
+- Automated (Jenkins, RTD) documentation build & publish (multiple documents);
+- Automated (Jenkins) build & publish of Salt Master Docker image;
+- Automated (Jenkins) deployment of ``Gambia`` running on baremetal or a nested
