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?
