It allowed me to accumulate deep knowledge base about core OpenStack +functionality. My first project was Murano in the very early state of +development even before incubation. I successfully started to maintain Murano +project packages specifications for those period of time. +The main goal for the Packaging-Rpm project, as I see it, is to unify and +simplify approaches Linux package maintainers use in their work day by day. +It is very important that availability of publicly published and suitable for +different flavors of rpm based Linux distros package specifications makes +package building process untied with mainstream vendors. +I wish my experience as package maintainer could help developers all over the +world to make their work easier and more transparent with efficiency pushed to +higher level. +I’m very eager to make it happen and I’m going to dedicate a lot of my time and +efforts as Packaging-RPM’s PTL. + + +There are a few topics to concentrate on during Newton cycle: + +Move forward to finish with already started initiative for initial filling of +projects’ templates for a common OpenStack dependencies like oslo, +python clients. This should create basis for further work and should unlock +development of package specification templates for core OpenStack projects. + +Continue with development of automation tooling for packaging. Creation and +publishing package specifications for renderspec, pymod2pkg and openstack-macros +will makes maintenance easier for all who require to build and use these tools +from packages. + +CI checks. At the present moment only SUSE was added it to the project. +This is not enough because it covers cases only for one vendor. Adding more 3rd +party CIs (Eg: Mirantis or Fedora/RDO) will improve tests and use-cases +coverage. + + +Regards, Igor Yozhikov (IgorYozhikov) +iyozhikov@mirantis.com
