## SUMMARY (please correct me if I'm wrong)
##

python-rtslib-fb - lib: object API for managing Linux LIO kernel target
python-configshell-fb - lib: framework for building CLI-based apps

MIR #1)

ceph-iscsi - LIO gateways for Ceph (logic and CLI tools)

deps:
  python3-configshell-fb - (see below in this summary)
  python3-rtslib-fb - (see below in this summary)
  python3-urwid - lib: curses-based UI lib for python (cli)
  tcmu - userland portion of Linux LIO (ceph, qcow2)

MIR #2)

targetcli-fb - Linux LIO kernel target command line interface

deps:
  python3-configshell-fb - (see below in this summary)
  python3-rtslib-fb - (see below in this summary)

----

## DONE

- urwid should have security review
  - emitorino gets to itself urwid review (2020-01-08)

- tcmu is high-impact target (because of Werror disablement)
  - comments from jamespage about portability (cyphermox concerns on Werror)

- python3-configshell-fb was reviewed by paelzer (2019-12-05) MIR
- python3-configshell-fb was reviewed by alexmurray (2020-02-21) SECURITY

----

Note: The next 3 items are orthogonal:

## MISSING (for both MIRs to happen at same time):

- python3-rtslib-fb needs MIR and SECURITY review
- python3-urwid needs MIR and SECURITY review (emitorino to finish ?)
- tcmu needs MIR and SECURITY review
- ceph-iscsi needs MIR and SECURITY review
- targetcli-fb needs MIR and SECURITY review

## MISSING (for ceph-iscsi MIR to happen):

- python3-rtslib-fb needs MIR and SECURITY review
- python3-urwid needs MIR and SECURITY review (emitorino to finish ?)
- tcmu needs MIR and SECURITY review
- ceph-iscsi needs MIR and SECURITY review

## MISSING (for targetcli-fb MIR to happen):

- python3-rtslib-fb needs MIR and SECURITY review
- targetcli-fb needs MIR and SECURITY review

----------------------------

Request: If there is no urgent need for ceph-iscsi to be LIO based on 20.04, would it be possible to prioritize the last MISSING item described above ? This way I would be able to have targetcli-fb in 20.04 and have an interface for LIO.

Observation: Let me know if there is anything on my side I can do to help in accelerating either ceph-iscsi and/or targetcli-fb MIRs.

Thanks a lot!
