Project: Cinder
Attendees: Approximately 30
I was really pleased by the number of people that attended the Cinder
session and the fact that they people in the room seemed engaged with
the presentation and asked good questions showing interest in the
project. I think having the on-boardings rooms was beneficial and
hopefully something that we can continue.
Given the number of people in the room we didn't go around and introduce
everyone. I did have the Sean McGinnis introduce himself as PTL and had
the other Cinder Core members introduce themselves so that the attendees
could put faces with our names.
From there we kicked off the presentation [1] which covered the
following high level topics:
* Introduction of Cinder's Repos and components
* Quick overview of Cinder's architecture/organization
* Pointers to the Upstream Institute education (Might have done a bit
of a sales pitch for the next session here ;-))
* Expanded upon the Upstream Institute education to explain how what
was taught there specifically applied to Cinder
* Walked through the main Cinder code tree
* Described how to test changes to Cinder
My presentation was designed to assume that attendees had been through
Upstream Institute. I had coverage in the slides in case they had not
been through the education. Unfortunately most of the class had not
been through the education so I did spend a portion of time re-iterating
those concepts and less time was able to be spent at the end going
through real world examples of working with changes in Cinder. I got
feedback from a few people that having some real hands on coding
examples would have been helpful.
One way we could possible handle this is to split the on-boarding to a
introduction section and then a more advanced second session. The other
option is that we require people who are attending the on-boarding to
have been through Upstream Institute. Something to think about.
I think it was unfortunate that the session wasn't recorded. We shared
a lot of good information (between good questions and having a good
representation of Cinder's Core team in the room) that it would have
been nice to capture. Given this I am planning at some point in the
near future to work with Walt Boring to record a version of the
presentation that can be uploaded to our Cinder YouTube channel and
include some coding examples.
In summary, I think the on-boarding rooms were a great addition and the
Cinder team is pleased with how we used the time. I think it is
something we would like to continue to invest time into developing and
improving.

Project: Keystone
Attendees: 12 - 15
We conflicted with one of the Baremetal/VM sessions
I attempted to document most of the session in my recap [0].
We started out by doing a round-the-room of introductions so that
folks could put IRC nicks to faces (we also didn't have a packed room
so this went pretty quick). After that we cruised through a summary of
keystone, the format of the projects, and the various processes we
use. All of this took *maybe* 30 minutes.
From there we had an open discussion and things evolved organically.
We ended up going through:
* the differences between the v2.0 and v3 APIs
* keystonemiddleware architecture, how it aids services, and how it
interacts with keystone
o we essentially followed an API call for creating a instance
from keystone -> nova -> glance
* how authentication scoping works and why it works that way
* how federation works and why it's setup the way it is
* how federated authentication works (https://goo.gl/NfY3mr)
All of this was pretty well-received and generated a lot of productive
discussion. We also had several seasoned keystone contributors in the
room, which helped a lot. Most of the attendees were all curious about
similar topics, which was great, but we totally could have split into
separate groups given the experience we had in the room (we'll save
that in our back pocket for next time).

Kolla:
Attendees - full room (20-30?)
Notes - Conflict with kolla-k8s demo probably didn't help
While we didn't have etherpad, slides, recording (and video dongle
that could fit my laptop), we had great session with analog tools
(whiteboard and my voice chords). We walked through architecture of
each Kolla project, how they relate to each other and so on.
Couple things to take out from our onboarding:
1. Bring dongles
2. We could've used bigger room - people were leaving because we had
no chairs left
3. Recording would be awesome
4. Low tech is not a bad tech
All and all, when we started session I didn't know what to expect or
what people will expect so we just...rolled with it, and people seemed
to be happy with it:) I think onboarding rooms were great idea (kudos
to whoever came up with it)! I'll be happy to run it again in Sydney.
Cheers,
Michal
