Hey everyone,
|
|
|
|
I'd like to continue to serve as the PTL of the keystone project for the Ocata
|
|
release. I served as PTL of the keystone project for the Mitaka and Newton
|
|
development cycles. I find the role to be extremely rewarding, and would be
|
|
honoured to continue to serve in the same capacity, if you'll have me.
|
|
|
|
During the Mitaka development cycle we accomplished many blueprints and hit
|
|
some important goals, here are a few off the top of my head:
|
|
|
|
- Python 3 compatibility (for unit tests)
|
|
- Credential encryption
|
|
- PCI support for passwords
|
|
- Running migration tests on non-sqlite backends
|
|
- API docs are migrated and fully updated
|
|
- Introduced the `keystone doctor` helper
|
|
|
|
For the Ocata release I'd like to take advantage the short development cycle
|
|
to aggressively pay down some of the technical debt we've accumulated and
|
|
also improve user and operator experience. I'd like to limit new features to a
|
|
minimum (maybe 3-5) my short list is the following:
|
|
|
|
- Multi Factor Auth (MFA) support
|
|
- Improving the federated identity mapping engine
|
|
- Tackle the issue with long running operations timing out
|
|
- Handle federated authentication without apache libraries
|
|
- Functional tests with non-standard deployments (ldap, federated identity)
|
|
|
|
With the exception of MFA support, all the features listed above match the
|
|
theme of paying down technical debt or improving user experience.
|
|
|
|
From a non-technical perspective, I'd like to do the following:
|
|
|
|
- Improve communication and engagement with our direct downstream consumers
|
|
(OSA, tripleo, etc)
|
|
- Continue to work with operators. Create specifications based on real world
|
|
use cases that are driven by operators facing issues with performance,
|
|
usability, scalability, and upgrades.
|
|
- Appoint a bug czar or perform weekly bug triages and monthly bug squashes
|
|
|
|
Lastly, I'd like to thank anyone that contributed to keystone during the Newton
|
|
release. I'm very excited for what Ocata will bring and look forward to working
|
|
on it in any capacity.
