+I'd like to announce my candidacy for OpenStack Ansible PTL.
+
+As usual, I want to go over all the points I talked about last
+time and their progress.
+
+# Simplifying scenarios for usage and testing
+We probably haven't progressed much in this, our testing has improved,
+we did add upgrade testing but unfortuantely that hasn't been as stable.
+
+# Using integrated repository for testing and dropping role tests
+This is pretty much done for the expect of a few corner projects.
+
+# Progress on switching all deployments to use Python3
+This is also done with some packaging workarounds to make it work with
+CentOS 7.
+
+# Eventual addition of CentOS 8 option
+We made some progress in this, but it still needs a lot more work,
+big thanks to jrosser for driving a bunch of this work too.
+
+# Reduction in number of config variables (encouraging overrides)
+This has been done over a few roles now that are using overrides in
+hopes of minimizing the number of variables to speed up runs.
+
+# Increase cooperation with other deployment projects (i.e. TripleO)
+The Ansible SIG is moving and alive, TripleO uses python_venv_build and
+os_tempest as well as our connection plugins, so yay.
+
+We've worked on getting some new cores as well and making sure the
+project continues to be sustainable.
+
+Thank you for your consideration.
