+
+Cluster Object Wrapper
+----------------------
+
+`Watcher Decision Engine`_  must provide a way to get cluster objects that can
+be used directly within a `Strategy`_ . These objects will be refreshed
+periodically.
+
+Persistent Audit Param
+----------------------
+
+Watcher must ensure that the Audit parameters are persistent in Db.
+
+Watcher Policies
+----------------
+
+Admin can use policies to allow or not users to invoke Watcher API
+methods.
+
+Nova Policies
+-------------
+
+Watcher `Strategy`_  must conform with the Nova polices.
+
+Define Audit Scope
+------------------
+
+Watcher python clients must validate resources instead of Heat.
+
+Scoring module
+--------------
+
+Watcher scoring module is a generic machine learning service. It will provide
+for example predictions or classifications that can be used by the selected
+`Strategy`_.
+
+Auto Triggering  Audit
+----------------------
+
+Watcher will carry out 'Action Plans'_ automatically during Continous
+Optimization.
+
+Dynamic Action Desc
+-------------------
+
+'Watcher Decision Engine'_ must support Strategy with new customized
+actions.
+
+Planner Storage Action
+----------------------
+
+Watcher must store 'Action Plans'_ as a directed graph or Directed Acyclic
+Graph in its database. The 'Watcher Applier'_ can then run each independent
+Action in the graph in parallel when its dependencies have been satisfied.
+
+Notifications
+-------------
+
+Watcher must be compliant with the new notification logic (versionned
+payload and one topic).
+
+Action Plan Conso
+-----------------
+
+Watcher must support a consolidation mechanism which combine all
+'Action Plans'_ generated from an Audit into a single flow of Actions
+to be executed.
+
+Uniform Airflow Strategy
+------------------------
+
+This `Strategy`_ trigger migration of VMs based on the airflow of
+servers. This strategy makes decisions to migrate VMs to make the
+airflow uniform.
+
+Overload Strategy
+-----------------
+
+This 'Strategy'_ chooses the pair VM:dest_host that minimizes the
+standard deviation in a cluster best.
+
+Plugins parameters
+------------------
+
+Watcher must give the possibility to the developer to add some
+parameters depending on the configuration of OpenStack cluster
+on the plugins
+
+Get Goal from Strategy
+----------------------
+
+Achieved goal should be returned by each `Strategy`_
+
+Efficacy Indicator
+------------------
+
+Provide efficacy indicators
+
+Default Planner Generic
+-----------------------
+
+An admin needs to be able to add a new Action without having
+to amend the source code of the default planner.
+
+Continuous Optimization
+-----------------------
+
+Watcher Audit must support an active mode
