Hi,
|
|
|
|
I'm Renat Akhmerov. After a year break I'd like to announce my PTL candidacy
|
|
for Mistral in Train cycle.
|
|
|
|
In the last two years we've been mainly focused on improving Mistral
|
|
performance and the reason for this was that some big users began to adopt
|
|
it for their production needs. The amount of work done in this area was
|
|
huge and the result is orders of magnitude boost for a number of use cases.
|
|
|
|
Although much was done and the core of the technology is pretty mature now,
|
|
there's still a lot ahead:
|
|
|
|
1. Continue to improve performance (e.g. "join" tasks)
|
|
2. Make the technology more product-like. That is, eliminating obvious gaps
|
|
in the documentation (inconsistent structure, lack of tutorials, etc.),
|
|
installation and configuration tools, tools for developing custom actions
|
|
and functions easier and plugging them in easier. The ultimate goal here
|
|
is to make sure that a new user can start using the technology within
|
|
minutes, and the experience should be as positive as possible.
|
|
|
|
Another thing that I'd like to do is to attract more talented and qualified
|
|
contributors, i.e. to make the project community stronger. So if one has
|
|
interest in working on Mistral we're always open and ready to help witn
|
|
getting up to speed.
|
|
|
|
Most likely, not all of the things mentioned above will be done in Train
|
|
but I want to make sure we finally started addressing #2 in a more serious
|
|
way than before.
|
|
|
|
The best way to get in touch with us is IRC channel #openstack-mistral or the
|
|
openstack-discuss mailing list (with [mistral] tag in email subject).
