So what's the problem?
The problem is that instead of spending time coding on features and bugs for Nova, Glance, Swift and Keystone, a bunch of devs are instead spending time working on an alternate solution to what has already been decided by the PPB, discussed publicly, and coded on for months by my team. Frankly, this whole situation hearkens back to when everyone except a few folks on the Titan team was griping about Launchpad and Bazaar, saying that they "couldn't get anything done with these tools", except for some on the Titan team which just adapted and ended up being very productive using LP and Bazaar. If you guys would give Gerrit a chance and try to work with the toolset, instead of constantly going off and trying to make everything "just GitHub", I think we'd actually be able to get more done. Just my two cents. You can probably tell I am quite frustrated with this debate going on *yet again*. -jay _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
