I have spent subsequent years of my life building, maintaining, +operating, and teaching other people how to Openstack. + +I contribute Openstack CI resources via Fort Nebula (last cycle), and this +cycle via Open Edge. This is a cloud that has been tuned specifically for the +Openstack Community CI workload. I support many of the obscure requirements to +run non-standard CI jobs on this cloud. This Openstack deployment is all my +personal equipment and is 100% privately funded. In the last cycle my commit +for test instances was mostly 50 concurrent jobs, and this cycle is mostly 40. + +As a member of the TC, I bring close to a decade of experience as an Operator. +I feel the Openstack community can continue to deliver quality code while +focusing on easing the burden of getting Openstack clouds into production. +For a long time the focus of this community has been to develop bleeding edge +features to deliver technical value to consumers. Now this community should +focus on making those features easier to consume. + +I can view the TC through the eyes of a builder, tinkerer, trainer, and long +time operator of Openstack. + +Thank you for your consideration. + +https://www.stackalytics.com/?metric=commits&user_id=donny-g + +http://grafana.openstack.org/d/dYykaX_Wz/nodepool-openedge?orgId=1&from=now-24h&to=now + +
