Re: CNCF SIG "App Delivery"

To be clear, I totally agree that "trying to address every project in that space" is not a goal, and neither can it be for almost any of the CNCF SIGs (Storage, Security, Traffic/Networking clearly also suffer from a similar problem).  

However, like CNCF SIG Storage did, a white paper clarifying the landscape and terminology, and helping to prioritize which specific points in the space are most interesting and of highest priority is useful, and one of the primary purposes of CNCF SIGs.

I believe they are by nature in scope - but also trying to address every project in those spaces is boiling the ocean.

Is there a doc that gives a more detailed explanation of what "App Delivery" is meant to cover?
I honestly do not know what it means for both PaaS and Serverless to be out of scope when I believe all of them are (probably) based on containers and therefore will leverage container images as part of "App Delivery".

Doug - no, I'm just saying that both PaaS and Serverless are out of
scope for CNCF SIG App Delivery.

I know in general Kubernetes has tried to stay unopinionated "up the stack" but it seems unless we define an "application" in a more formal way, having App Delivery as a SIG is premature. Am I making sense?
