Re: CloudStack Interview Request

[Lalaine L.]

Hi Giles! I hope you are having a wonderful day :) This is just a quick
email to see if you've had a chance to answer the interview questions
(see below) from our previous email? We're just trying to organize our
publishing schedule for this month, so if you could let me know when you
think you could get your responses back to me, that would be great! The
sooner the better :)  

Really looking forward to reading your answers.  

Best.

Re: CloudStack Kubernetes provider containers on DockerHub

[Pierre-Luc Dion]

hi, sorry for the late response,

I still have admin access to or cloudstack org on docker hub, [1]  if you
want admin access to it, provide me your account name on docker hub and
I'll add you to the admin group.
Quickly looking at it, it's more than overdue, unfortunately all our
containers there are outdated :-(

We also have apachecloudstack org name if it's preferable.

These 2 orgs are not subprojects of Apache orgs in docker hub, and probably
it would be better to use the apache orgs  ? I don't have any rights on
apache docker hub org.

Cheers,

Re: CloudStack Kubernetes provider containers on DockerHub

[Riepl, Gregor (SWISS TXT)]

Hello and happy new year to everybody!

The k8s provider[1] is still lacking built containers so people can use it 
directly.
Were you able to figure out how to access the mentioned Docker hub accounts in 
the meantime?

We can also create a new one if necessary...

Thanks,
Greg

Thanks Gregor.

Let me tag a few people that may have access to one of the following docker hub 
organizations:

apache
apachecloudstack
cloudstack


Can you grant access to me (my docker username is 'bhaisaab') and Gregor? 
Thanks.

Subject: CloudStack Kubernetes provider containers on DockerHub

Hi everyone,

We still need to publish the new 
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-kubernetes-provider on a public container 
registry.
It looks like the ASF and/or CloudStack project already have accounts on 
DockerHub:
https://hub.docker.com/u/apache
https://hub.docker.com/u/apachecloudstack

Who has access to these organisations and can publish the provider there?
The Github repository contains a suitable Dockerfile that we used with 
DockerHub before and shouldn't require any complicated repository setup.

If possible, please give access to @rhtyd so he can take care of things.

Thanks!
Gregor
