Hi everyone! Just wanted to send the community some updates on the vision front and also get a discussion with the members of the technical committee going here for next steps on what we're up to with the TC Vision for 2019 [0].
A couple things: 1. We finished our feedback phase by closing the survey we had open, and posting all collected feedback in a document for TC (and community) review [1] and having a session at the Boston Forum where we presented the vision, and also took feedback from those present [2]. There is also some feedback in Gerrit for the review up of the first draft [0], so that's a few places we've covered for feedback. 2. We're now entering the phase of work where we incorporate feedback into the next draft of the vision and finalize it for posterity/the governance repository/ourselves and ourselves. So! What should feedback incorporation look like? I think we need to have mbmers of the TC pipe up a bit here to discuss timelines for this round and also who all will be involved. Some rough estimates we came up with were something over the course of the 2-3 weeks after the Forum that could then be +2d into governance by mid-June or so. I'm not sure if that's possible based on everyone's travel/work/vacation schedules for the summer, but it would be great. Thoughts on that? Also - I promised to attempt to come up with some general themes in feedback we've uncovered for suggestions for edits: - There is (understandably) a lot of feedback around what the nature of the vision is itself. This might best be cleared up with a quick prologue explaining why the vision reads the way it does, and what the intention was behind writing it this way. - The writing about constellations, generally, got quite a bit of feedback (some folks wanted more explanation, others wanted it to be more succinct, so I think wading through the data to read everyone's input on this is valuable here) - Ease of installation & upgrades are language that comes up multiple times - Many people asked for a bullet-points version, and/or that it be edited & shortened a bit - A few people said 2 years was not enough time and this read more like a 5 year vision - A few people mentioned issues of OpenStack at scale and wondering whether that might be addressed in the vision - There was some question of whether it was appropriate to vision for "x number of users with yz types of deployments" as a target number to hit in this vision, or whether it should be left for an OpenStack-wide community vision. Some favorites: - Lots of people loved the idea of constellations - A lot of likes for better mentoring & the ladders program - Some likes for diversity across the TC of the future Okay - I think that's a pretty good summary. If anyone else has any feedback they'd like to make sure gets into the conversation, please feel free to reply in this thread.
