+FD.io CSIT High-Level Development Plan
+======================================
+
+Proposed Work Organisation
+--------------------------
+
+* Each work area is covered by owners.
+ - Technical Lead (TL) - overall responsibility incl. design, detailed
+ work plan, DT coordination, managing dependencies.
+ - Development Team (DT) - doing work following the TL.
+ - Project Lead (PL) - involved in all work areas at higher level,
+ focusing on requirements definitions, design and work reviews,
+ acceptance.
+ - For work areas with large number of deliverables there could be
+ multiple TLs e.g. for operations, framework or test refactor.
+ - FD.io CSIT owners' initials listed with suffix strings:
+ "[TL;DT1..DTn;PL]", contact details at the end of this note.
+
+* Actual work breakdown tracked in FD.io CSIT jira:
+ - Tasks tracked in Jira under CSIT Epics.
+
+Plan Timeline
+-------------
+
+* Current release cycle:
+ - FD.io CSIT rls18.07, associated with VPP-18.07.
+* Sub-sequent releases:
+ - FD.io CSIT rls18.10, rls1812, ..
+ - Work not completed fully in current release cycle marked as backlog
+ for follow-on release(s).
