This would be my third +release as PTL and am happy to continue leading this great project. + +As I look back at the last two releases we have gotten some +good things done. The implementation of multi-attach has +been a goal of Cinder for quite some time and I am glad to +have been able to help make this happen. We have also seen +a change from trying to get new features implemented in Cinder +to fixing bugs and making Cinder more user friendly and stable. +During the Rocky release we have continued to improve our +documentation, have worked on improving HA support and removed +a lot of old code that did not need to remain in tree. +I think this is an important evolution in the Cinder project: +to focus on stability, usability and maintainability of our code. + +With that said I think the Stein release is going to be a challenging +release for Cinder. We have the following issues that are going +to need to be addressed: + +* Migration to Storyboard +* Dwindling review support +* Making decisions around the Placement Service and Cinder +* Continuing discussion around Cinder as a Stand-alone service + +I am hoping that I will be able to use my experience over +the last two releases to move the above issues forward. + +Sincerely, +Jay Bryant (jungleboyj)
