It needs to be proposed to the PPB for acceptance. Please put it on the
meeting agenda at [1].

[1] http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/PPB

Note that the PPB still needs to finalize the evolution of its current
Project addition process [2] to accommodate the new
Core/Incubation/Related project types [3] with clear process to move
from one to another.

[3] http://wiki.openstack.org/ProjectTypes

Maybe we can do everything in one meeting :)

The end user experience in OpenStack would greatly benefit from having an
official web application that developers can focus their effort on.

Devin, if this process winds up involving a vote or if there's is any other
way we can support this, please let us know.

Thanks,
Everett

 Hello all,

 For quite a while now, the OpenStack Dashboard has existed as an incubation
 project.  There is quite a bit of development effort going into it now from
 a number of different companies.  Current projects underway include, but are
 not limited to:

  * swift support
  * internationalization
  * a new theme
  * OpenStack API support
  * integration with Keystone project

 This project is quickly gaining contributors, and is in use by a large
 number of members of the community.

 I believe the time is right to make the dashboard an official OpenStack
 project.

 To my knowledge, no other projects have gone through the incubation process
 to become an official project, so in some ways we are in uncharted
 territory.

 Is there an officially documented process to make this happen?

[Openstack] Proposal for Dashboard as an official OpenStack project

Hello all,

I believe the time is right to make the dashboard an official OpenStack project.

become an official project, so in some ways we are in uncharted territory.

Is there an officially documented process to make this happen?
