Hi! This is the weekly summary of Technical Committee initiatives. You can find the full list of all open topics (updated twice a week) at:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Technical_Committee_Tracker If you are working on something (or plan to work on something) that is not on the tracker, feel free to add to it ! == Election period started == We are renewing 6 of the 13 TC seats, nominations are open until EOD Tuesday, October 10. If you are interested in open source project governance and want to help continuously adapting it to an ever-evolving environment, please consider running ! https://governance.openstack.org/election/ == Recently-approved changes == * Adopt python-openstacksdk into shade project [1] * Remove stable:follows-policy tag from TripleO [2] * Add api interop assert tag to nova [3] [1] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/501426/ [2] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/507924/ [3] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/506255/ A bit of additional context about the first two changes: While the name was implying otherwise, python-openstacksdk never was the one official OpenStack Python SDK. To present a less confusing, more usable and more complementary face to end users of OpenStack clouds, the Shade project team (with the help of the OpenStackClient team) proposed to adopt the now semi-abandoned python-openstacksdk and work to refactor the 3 projects to avoid overlap and increase complementarity. Deployment projects like TripleO have needs and policies around stable branches that are different from classic service projects, which make the current stable:follows-policy tag difficult to follow, so they asked to have the tag removed. This may point to a need for a specific common stable policy for deployment/lifecycle management projects. == Voting in progress == Masakari, a new project to cover Virtual Machine HA needs, reached majority support and will be approved next Tuesday unless last-minutes objections are posted: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/500118/ fungi's change moving the "Infra sysadmins" entry in the top-5 help wanted list to #2 also reached majority and will be approved next Tuesday unless someone objects: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/507637/ smcginnis's proposal to get rid of (unused) supports-zero-impact-upgrade is still missing a couple of votes to pass: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/506241/ == Open discussion == The supports-accessible-upgrade is also being considered for removal, since the amount of information it conveys is questionable. Alternatives are being discussed on the mailing-list. Join on the review or the thread: * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/506263/ * http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2017-October/123061.html Monty posted new patchsets on his proposed updates around the project testing interface. Please review at: * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/508693/ * https://review.openstack.org/#/c/508694/ 3 other new project teams are still being actively discussed, with no clear consensus yet. Please join the discussion if you have an opinion on whether they should be made official OpenStack project teams: * Glare (https://review.openstack.org/479285) * Stackube (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/462460/) * Mogan (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/508400/) == TC member actions for the coming week(s) == Monty should answer the feedback on the supported database version resolution (https://review.openstack.org/493932) so that we can make progress there. John should review Lance's response to his objection on: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/500985/ Doug and Thierry will draft a top-5 help wanted list addition around 'champions' or leaders of various efforts, as Lance and Chandan prove it to be a successful way of getting cross-project work done. == Need for a TC meeting next Tuesday == Nothing is blocked to the point of requiring a specific meeting. Expect the election season and the last project team applications to be the main topics discussed during TC office hours next week. You can find TC office hours at: https://governance.openstack.org/tc/#office-hours Cheers, -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
