Hello Everyone,

I've implemented both of the cleanups I mentioned last week. More info below.

Core Cleanup

Nova Core is now down to seventeen members.  I want to take a minute to thank 
all of the core folks for the incredible work they have done over the last 
couple of years.  Some of these people have moved on to other things, and I 
hope that they are equally successful in their new projects. There are others 
on the list that are simply too busy to review consistently, and may be 
returning to core-duty at some point. Normally a nova-core member needs to be 
recommended by an existing core member, but I'd like to propose an alternative 
method for former core members.

If a former core member has time to start participating in reviews again, i 
think he should be able to review for a couple of weeks or two and send an 
email to the list saying, "Hey, I've got time to review again, can I be added 
back in".  If we don't here any -1 votes by other core members for three days 
we will bring them back.  In other words, its former members can be accelerated 
back into core.  Sound reasonable?

Blueprint Cleanup

As I mentioned in my previous email, I've now obsoleted all blueprints not 
targetted to folsom. The blueprint system has been used for "feature requests", 
and I don't think it is working because there is no one grabbing unassigned 
blueprints. I think it has to be up to the drafter of the blueprint to find a 
person/team to actually implement the blueprint or it will just sit there. 
Therefore I've removed all of the "good idea" blueprints. This was kind of sad, 
because there were some really good ideas there.

If I've inadvertently removed a blueprint of yours that is actually being 
worked on, please let me know and I will resurrect it and target it to folsom.

Unassigned Blueprints

There are still a few blueprints targetted to folsom[1] with no assignee.  If 
there is anyone looking for important things to work on, that is a good place 
to start.  Config Drive v2[2] is an important one, and so is db-threadpool[3].  
Any takers?
