Re: [Openstack-operators] [User-committee] Non-Candidacy for UC Election August 2017

[Edgar Magana]

Jon,

You have been a pillar for all UC accomplishments. Your contributions made a 
difference for our community and there is no easy way to fill your shoes. This 
is not an easy job and I totally understand why you are taking a break, you 
deserved.
I know you will be around and that is great. 

Thank you!

Edgar

We do need candidates to serve and nominations are now open through

Self-nomination is common, no third party nomination is required. They
do so by sending an email to the user-commit...@lists.openstack.org

platform. The candidacy is then confirmed by one of the election

candidate.

[Openstack-operators] [cinder][stable] Reverting the deprecation notice: Cinder Driver for NetApp E-Series

[Ravi, Goutham]

Developers and Operators,

NetApp had prior provided notification [1] in accordance with community policy 
[2] of an intention to deprecate the iSCSI and FC Cinder drivers for NetApp 
E/EF-Series systems [3].  The community notification issued had the effect of 
introducing us to and engendering discussion with deployers (and those with 
near term plans to become deployers) indicating the importance of continued 
support for E/EF-series systems beyond the Pike release.   We hadn’t been prior 
familiar with many of these folks and greatly appreciate their having shared 
their perspective.

We’re pleased to announce that we’ve reconsidered our approach based on this 
new information.

Our intention with this mail is to revoke [3] the deprecation notice indicated 
in April 2017 and to continue to support E/EF-series systems.  As such, we do 
not intend to remove these drivers during the Queens or for the foreseeable 
future.

Any Cinder E-series current or prospective deployers are encouraged to get in 
touch with NetApp via the community #openstack-netapp IRC channel on freenode 
or via the #OpenStack Slack channel on http://netapp.io for 
any questions.

Thanks,
Goutham Pacha Ravi

Re: [Openstack-operators] [User-committee] [all] Announcement: Public Cloud WG

[Tobias Rydberg]

With this warm welcome from all, I would like to take the opportunity to 
briefly mention a couple of things we are currently working on:

In Boston, we had a great success with our “Missing features list for Public 
Clouds” - a lot of interest, both from public clouds and inside the community. 
With this list, as the name of it says, we're compiling a definitive record of 
features that public cloud vendors would like to see in OpenStack today, and 
what’s needed for them to continue grow their businesses based on OpenStack.

Our process is simple: convert these feature requests into specs, and get 
developers from public cloud providers (and the wider community) to come 
together and contribute upstream.

We're particularly excited to be working on the “OpenStack Passport” - a 
"prepaid coupon” system which is valid for any public cloud vendor 
participating in the scheme. It's early days but please do check our wiki [1] 
and IRC meeting minutes to follow the progress.

To get the passport scheme kicked off right, we are planning to have two group 
meetups during the fall before the summit in Sydney. These will be piggybacking 
on OpenStack days UK (London, September) and Nordics (Copenhagen, October). 
We'd welcome any ideas, support, advice etc and hope some of you will be able 
to join us there for whiteboarding/fishbowl sessions.

Once again, thanks a lot for the support!

Regards,
Tobias Rydberg (and all members of the Public Cloud WG)
