Therefore, I think the upcoming cycle +should be strongly focused on increasing stability, this would be done by +looking at the following + +- Simplifying scenarios for usage and testing +- Using integrated repository for testing and dropping role tests +- Progress on switching all deployments to use Python3 +- Eventual addition of CentOS 8 option +- Reduction in number of config variables (encouraging overrides) +- Increase cooperation with other deployment projects (i.e. TripleO) + +I would like us to aim at a cycle where we stabilize things and make sure +that things chug along smoothly. This will help reduce our overhead +and allow us to focus on the stability and robustness of the deployment +project as I believe that at this point, there's not much more 'features' +to be added in the deployment tool. + +In doing this, we should hopefully drive down the time of deployment and +increase the reliability of the deployment. + +Thank you for your consideration.
