+Cross Community Continuous Integration

+This document will contain the overview, the pipelines, and stuff.
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+OPNFV has an advanced Continuous Integration (CI) machinery that provides support
+to OPNFV community to develop, integrate, test and release the integrated
+reference platform for NFV.
+
+During the past releases, OPNFV integrated, deployed and tested different
+flavors (scenarios) of the platform in an entirely automated fashion, resulting
+in feedback to OPNFV itself and the communities OPNFV works with. This enabled
+communities to implement new features directly in the upstream, identify bugs
+and issue fixes for them.
+
+
+The development and release model employed by OPNFV uses stable versions of
+upstream components. This helps developers and users who are after the stability
+however it slows down the speed of development, testing, resulting in slower pace
+in innovation.
+
+In order to provide means for developers to work with OpenStack master
+branch, cutting the time it takes to develop new features significantly and
+testing them on OPNFV Infrastructure
+ enable OPNFV developers to identify bugs earlier, issue fixes faster, and
+get feedback on a daily basis
+ establish mechanisms to run additional testing on OPNFV Infrastructure to
+provide feedback to OpenStack community
+ make the solutions we put in place available to other LF Networking Projects
+OPNFV works with closely
+ embrace the change and apply Continuous Delivery and DevOps principles and
+practices to OPNFV
