Hi all,
|
|
|
|
Please consider my candidacy for a seat on the OpenStack Technical Committee.
|
|
|
|
I'm a software engineer at the Mass Open Cloud[0], a collaboration between
|
|
the five major universities of the Boston area to create and operate a public
|
|
cloud that can be replicated and federated. I've been involved with OpenStack
|
|
for the past 5 years as a user, operator, and developer. I'm a core reviewer
|
|
for the keystone project, and I'm also running for its PTL for the Victoria
|
|
cycle[1]. I have a previous unsuccessful run for the TC[2]. Lately, I've
|
|
also been involved with OpenInfra Labs[3], a new project of the OSF.
|
|
|
|
I do not have a platform per se, and honestly I wasn't planning on running at
|
|
all. I have a lot to learn, and if I were to be elected, pretty big shoes to
|
|
fill. If you are looking for someone that already has all the answers, look
|
|
elsewhere.
|
|
|
|
On the other hand, if you're looking for someone who is eager to grow, learn,
|
|
and give back to the community in any way he can, I hope you will consider my
|
|
candidacy.
|
|
|
|
I'm deeply grateful to the OpenStack community and all the people I've had
|
|
the pleasure of working with, being mentored by, and doing karaoke during the
|
|
PTGs. You are like family.
|
|
|
|
Thank you,
|
|
Kristi Nikolla
