Hi everyone,
|
|
|
|
I would like to nominate myself as a candidate for Designate PTL for the Pike
|
|
cycle. For anyone that doesn't know me, I'm Tim Simmons (timsim). I've been
|
|
working on Designate since mid-2013, and been part of Designate Core since
|
|
2015.
|
|
|
|
Over that time I've done lots of things for Designate, big and small. Some of
|
|
the bigger bits include the recent rearchitecture called "the Worker Model",
|
|
the second coming of the "Designate agent", and asynchronous zone imports and
|
|
exports. I was also one of the champions behind the ultimately disastrous
|
|
Golang discussion, whoops.
|
|
|
|
The Designate community has always been small, more so than ever now. But I'm
|
|
willing to step up and take responsibility for the project in the vacuum that's
|
|
been created by factors out of our control.
|
|
|
|
The things I'd like to focus on in Pike are stability, bugs, and documentation.
|
|
|
|
We've had some recent changes that, while they look good and are a solid base
|
|
for the future of the project, are definitely hiding some bugs and operational
|
|
hiccups. I'd like to make sure that the project is solid for years to come, and
|
|
that it's easy for new users and contributors to use. We've got a nice little
|
|
backlog of bugs that I'd like to get fixed, because, well bugs are bad! I also
|
|
want to ensure that new users and contributors have everything they need to
|
|
get going with Designate, and our docs are in need of some love to make that
|
|
happen.
|
|
|
|
Thanks for your consideration, and I look forward to continuing work on
|
|
Designate,
|
|
|
|
Tim Simmons (timsim)
