+Hello OpenStack community!
+
+I would like to nominate myself as PTL for the Magnum project for the
+Stein cycle.
+
+In the last cycle magnum became more stable and is reaching the point
+of becoming a feature complete solution for providing managed container
+clusters for private or public OpenStack clouds. Also during this cycle
+the community around the project became healthy and more sustainable.
+
+My goals for Stein are to:
+- complete the work in cluster upgrades and cluster healing
+- keep up with the latest release of Kubernetes and Docker in stable
+  branches and improve their release process
+- documenation for cloud operators improvements
+- continue on building the community which supports the project
+
+Thanks for your time,
+Spyros
