Hi all,
|
||
|
||
I’m writing to announce my candidacy for Congress PTL for the Mitaka cycle. I’m
|
||
excited at the prospect of continuing the development of our community, our code
|
||
base, and our integrations with other projects.
|
||
|
||
This past cycle has been exciting in that we saw several new, consistent
|
||
contributors, who actively pushed code, submitted reviews, wrote specs,
|
||
and participated in the mid-cycle meet-up. Additionally, our integration
|
||
with the rest of the OpenStack ecosystem improved with our move to running
|
||
tempest tests in the gate instead of manually or with our own CI. The code
|
||
base matured as well, as we rounded out some of the features we added near
|
||
the end of the Kilo cycle. We also began making the most significant
|
||
architectural change in the project’s history, in an effort meet our
|
||
high-availability and API throughput targets.
|
||
|
||
I’m looking forward to the Mitaka cycle. My highest priority for the code
|
||
base is completing the architectural changes that we began in Liberty. These
|
||
changes are undoubtedly the right way forward for production use cases, but
|
||
it is equally important that we make Congress easy to use and understand for
|
||
both new developers and new end users. I also plan to further our integration
|
||
with the OpenStack ecosystem by better utilizing the plugin architectures that
|
||
are available (e.g. devstack and tempest). I will also work to begin (or
|
||
continue) dialogues with other projects that might benefit from consuming
|
||
Congress. Finally I’m excited to continue working with our newest project
|
||
members, helping them toward becoming core contributors.
|
||
|
||
See you all in Tokyo!
|
||
Tim
