Since n-tuple requirements are straightforward, below is timeline in mind,
1. Requirements agree and drafted by June-30
2. Design and its review to finish by July-30
3. Spec to review by Aug-30

First draft was this v0 one.

Slightly unrelated to question, let's call this feature as: "receive flow filters", instead of "flow director".
