+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+* Danube 1.0 release of the KVM4NFV RPM and debian for kvm4nfv
+
+* Added the following scenarios as part of D-Release:
+
+ * os-nosdn-kvm_nfv_ovs_dpdk-noha
+
+ * os-nosdn-kvm_nfv_ovs_dpdk_bar-noha
+
+ * os-nosdn-kvm_nfv_ovs_dpdk-ha
+
+ * os-nosdn-kvm_nfv_ovs_dpdk_bar-ha
+
+* Configured influxdb and `Graphana_dashboard`_ for publishing kvm4nfv test results
+
+.. _Graphana_dashboard: http://testresults.opnfv.org/grafana/dashboard/db/kvmfornfv-cyclictest
+
+* Cyclictest test case is successfully implemented, it has the below test types.,
+
+ * idle-idle
+
+ * CPUstress-idle
+
+ * IOstress-idle
+
+ * Memorystress-idle
+
+* Implemented Noisy Neighbour feature ., cyclictest under stress testing is implemented
+
+* Packet forwarding test case is implemented and it supports the following test types currently,
+
+ * Packet forwarding to Host
+
+ * Packet forwarding to Guest
+
+ * Packet forwarding to Guest using SRIOV
+
+* Ftrace debugging tool is supported in D-Release. The logs collected by ftrace are stored in artifacts for future needs
+
+* PCM Utility is part of D-Release. The future scope may include collection of read/write data and publishing in grafana
+
+* Either Apex or Fuel can be used for deployment of os-nosdn-kvm-ha scenario
+
