Hello everyone,
|
|
|
|
I would like to announce my candidacy to continue as Cinder PTL for the Ocata
|
|
release.
|
|
|
|
The Cinder project has made great strides over the last several releases
|
|
adding functionality and improving stability. I think we have a very active
|
|
team and love being part of such a strong community.
|
|
|
|
The Ocata cycle will be a much shorter one than in the past. One thing I would
|
|
like to encourage for this release, as much as makes sense, is to focus on
|
|
being mostly a bug fix and stabilization cycle. One side effect of all of the
|
|
great new work going in recently is there has been a lot of new code introduced
|
|
and changes made. There have been fundamental changes in how some things
|
|
operate with the the change from rootwrap to privsep. I would like to take
|
|
advantage of this shorter concentrated cycle to delay some things in order to
|
|
make sure we have a solid foundation to build on.
|
|
|
|
Not to say there are any major issues with the project, or that there isn't
|
|
new work that we do want to get in to Cinder. We have an incredible team that
|
|
has been able to introduce some pretty significant code with little to no
|
|
impact on the rest of the system. Folks have done a great job manually testing
|
|
as well as adding unit and other automated testing to ensure high quality. But
|
|
even with code that has been in there untouched for years we still find certain
|
|
conditions that bring out issues. It would be great to find some of these now
|
|
before we build too much more on top.
|
|
|
|
Between the Summit and holidays for most over this cycle, Ocata will really be
|
|
a short one. But I look forward to seeing how much this team can do, even in
|
|
this quick cycle. This could be a lot of fun!
|
|
|
|
Thank you for your consideration!
|
|
|
|
Sean
