Hello Stackers,
|
|
|
|
I'm submitting myself as PTL candidate for the Puppet OpenStack project.
|
|
|
|
I've been active in the OpenStack community since late 2014 early 2015 and have had a lot of focus on the
|
|
Puppet OpenStack project since about 2016. I've been a core reviewer for about five months now and it's
|
|
been really cool to be able to give something back to the community.
|
|
|
|
We have had a lot of progress this cycle.
|
|
|
|
* Remove a lot of deprecate parameters
|
|
* Improved testing of Puppet 5
|
|
* Added Debian 9 support (Python 3 only)
|
|
* Added Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic support
|
|
* Fixed some bugs
|
|
* Moved to more usage of the shared openstacklib resources
|
|
* Added neutron-dynamic-routing support
|
|
* Added horizon dashboard installation support
|
|
* Changed keystone to use port 5000 and deprecated usage of port 35357 (still deploys both)
|
|
|
|
I could ramble up a lot more in that list but I really think we've done a good job but we still have some major things
|
|
moving forward that we'll have to work on. Here is some major things I think we'll need to work on or discuss.
|
|
|
|
* Python 3 will be a big one, I know people are working on Fedora for testing here, but we also have Debian9 here
|
|
which is python3-only so thanks to Thomas (zigo) we have somebody that has paved the way here.
|
|
|
|
* Puppet 5 data types for parameters and removing validate_* functions is a big one which we also have an open blueprint
|
|
and PoC for but will require a lot of interaction with the TripleO team. [0] [1]
|
|
|
|
* CI stability and maintenance will be a reoccurring thing we'll need to focus on.
|
|
|
|
* Puppet providers are usually slow due to CLI utilies, we need to work together to improve the performance of
|
|
the CLI tooling or consider the move to API calls, this has been up before but there hasn't been anybody there
|
|
that has sponsored such work.
|
|
|
|
I want to really thank all of you for your huge amounts of work, all across the OpenStack board and the Puppet OpenStack team.
|
|
Thank you for considering me.
|
|
|
|
Best regards
|
