Hi
|
|
|
|
I would like to announce my candidacy for PTL of the OpenStack Charms project.
|
|
|
|
I'm the incumbent and first PTL of this project, which joined the OpenStack
|
|
project in July this year; Right now we have around 30 charms for deploying
|
|
various parts of OpenStack, with an active core team 100% populated by
|
|
Canonical.
|
|
|
|
We're slowly incubating contribution from outside of this team - this cycle
|
|
I want to focus on changing that; specifically I think we have shortcomings
|
|
in engaging new developers, as getting into OpenStack charm development can
|
|
be high cost - the route to testing your charm change prior to submission
|
|
currently presents various options, and I want to focus on ensuring that
|
|
anyone with a reasonably specified machine can get started deploying
|
|
OpenStack and hacking on the OpenStack charms, enabling both end-users and
|
|
developers to have a better start in using and understanding the OpenStack
|
|
Charms.
|
|
|
|
I will continue to drive cross charm initiatives; specifically I think
|
|
Python 3 support is a key objective during the Ocata cycle, and we should aim
|
|
to have that in place as early in cycle as possible.
|
|
|
|
I also look forward to working collaboratively with other deployment projects
|
|
within the OpenStack project.
|
|
|
|
I look forward to helping steer the project during the Ocata cycle, and
|
|
helping to incubate the developer and user community around the OpenStack
|
|
Charms!
