No specific deliverables are created, as SFC is included with Apex and Compass4NFV.
The Gambia 2.0 release has a few limitations:

1 - When tacker is deployed without Mistral, there is an ERROR in the logs and the VIM is always in ‘PENDING’ state because tacker cannot monitor its health. However, everything works and SFs can be created.
