Hi All!
|
|
|
|
I am proposing myself for PTL of the Designate project.
|
|
|
|
In the last 6 months we have had a smaller amount of changes into
|
|
the project, but this has not nesissarly been a bad thing for us.
|
|
|
|
We have stabalised some of the changes that have been filtering through
|
|
over the last year or so, and have this cycle had a chance to evaluate
|
|
what we have completed, and what needs to change.
|
|
|
|
I think we now have a solid base to add new features for end users
|
|
(like ALIAS) and operators (MiniDNS simplifiaction + possible replacement
|
|
in a sane language, IXFR).
|
|
|
|
As we progress we will need to get more integrated into the community,
|
|
like we have with Nova, Neutron and Designate integration that has merged
|
|
this cycle. We should build on this to add content to the shared Docs,
|
|
API reference site and other projects.
|
|
|
|
Next cycle we need to focus on 3 items:
|
|
|
|
1. Docs. Docs. Docs.
|
|
|
|
We have gotten better at writing docs, and the addition of reno has help our
|
|
release notes a lot, but there is always room for improvement. We need to ensure
|
|
that we also remove old docs at the same time as writing new ones.
|
|
|
|
2. Worker Model.
|
|
|
|
Migration to the worker model improves a lot of our scaling story. It allows use to
|
|
remove the extra code that went into MiniDNS and remove RPC from MiniDNS entirely.
|
|
This in turn makes MiniDNS much more reimplementable in a language that is more
|
|
suited to parsing and building DNS packets.
|
|
|
|
3. Horizon Updates (Read: replacement)
|
|
|
|
Our horizon panels are ... dated, use the deprecated API, and lack most of the new
|
|
features that we have added to designate. Part of our time in newton needs to be
|
|
getting these panels updated, and availible to the community.
|
|
|
|
I see myself as a good person to lead these 3 priorities, and appriciate your
|
|
support for PTL.
|
|
|
|
Thanks,
|
|
|
|
