I'm announcing my candidacy for a position on the OpenStack Tecnical Committee.
|
|
|
|
I had the honor to have been elected last year for a position on the TC and it'd
|
|
be an honor for me to be re-elected for one more period as a member of this
|
|
committee.
|
|
|
|
I'm currently employed by Red Hat to work 100% upstream. During my past term I
|
|
served as a member of the Technical Committee and as a PTL for Glance during the
|
|
Mitaka cycle. Prior to that, I served as a PTL for Zaqar since the Icehouse
|
|
cycle till Liberty. I'm also an Oslo contributor and part of the stable
|
|
maintainers team, among other things. For the upcoming cycles, however, my plan
|
|
is to be entirely focused on the Technical Committee matters, if you'd honor me
|
|
with one more period on this role.
|
|
|
|
During my last term as TC, I set myself some goals to help (new) contributors
|
|
and teams to ramp up as well as keeping the overall OpenStack community informed
|
|
about other topics. To that end, I helped creating what's now known as the
|
|
Project Team Guide and the TC Communications Work group, which I'm still part
|
|
of. The results of these goals can be found here[0] and here[1] respectively.
|
|
Keeping the big tent growing and verifying that new projects would meet the
|
|
minimum requirements was big part of the job for the previous term as well.
|
|
|
|
Looking forward to Newton and Ocata, I believe we should now start working
|
|
towards a better format to keep our precious big tent sane and clean.
|
|
Specifically, I believe we should start looking into the progress existing
|
|
projects have made, the community status and help those projects to move forward
|
|
when possible or to remove them from the big tent if needed. This is a hard
|
|
topic to touch on and it'll require a study on the current situation and a plan
|
|
forward that is both objective and clear.
|
|
|
|
My past term as a TC member and my knowledge and involvement on other
|
|
cross-project tasks positions me well to help the community continue to grow
|
|
while still be able to contain the tent and prevent it from falling down. I
|
|
believe it's important for the technical committee to be more involved in
|
|
cross-project, technical, efforts.
|
|
|
|
One last thing, as a member of the TC I'd keep being part of the communications
|
|
group.
|
|
|
|
Once again, It would be my honor to continue to represent you. I look forward to
|
|
another year of successes reached by the Openstack community.
