Hello Again Infrastructure Electorate,
I am nominating myself for a fourth round of Infrastructure PTL duties. Once again I feel that I've got some unfinished business as PTL guiding our efforts through to completion. That said, we have made incredible progress on our goals over the Stein cycle:
- We are in the middle of upgrading all of our Puppetry to Puppet v4.
- We now have the ability to deploy systems without any Puppet. We even have a system for deploying container images.
- We are almost off of our old Trusty servers and on to either Xenial or Bionic based systems. Thank you for all the help with this, and I hope to see you during our final push.
- Winterscale has a name now: OpenDev. With a name we have been able to deploy services like DNS and Gitea and Zuul for OpenDev.
As I have said before, I cannot take credit for all this awesome work. Instead, as PTL, I have tried to facilitate the work of others while helping where I can. Thank you for making all of this effort possible.
Looking ahead, we have a great foundation on which to build out OpenDev while leaving behind legacy systems like Trusty and Puppet 3. For the Train cycle I expect we'll push hard to "OpenDevify" our existing services. There is great work already on the Git hosting side of things, but as soon as that is done I would like to see us branching out and converting more services.
It will be a fun adventure to bring our tools and services to a broader audience. I am happy to continue guiding the team through these changes as PTL if you will have me.
Thank you, Clark
