Hi all,
|
|
|
|
I'd like to announce my candidacy for serving as Trove PTL through
|
|
the Rocky cycle.
|
|
|
|
I have been working with OpenStack projects for more than 3 years,
|
|
with the responsibility of supporting and developing in Cinder and
|
|
Trove for the internal production deployment of OpenStack platform.
|
|
However, I only became an active contributor recently after I got
|
|
a new job offer which mainly focuses on upstream activities from
|
|
my current employer, and then got accepted as a core reviewer of
|
|
Trove. It would be a great experience as the Trove PTL to work
|
|
together with the team and the whole OpenStack big family in the
|
|
following months.
|
|
|
|
Trove has been challenged by contribution lacking for the last
|
|
developing cycles. But users and developers show their interest
|
|
in the project from time to time, by asking help on the maillist,
|
|
IRC channel, and submitting patches to solve problems found in
|
|
their adoptions. I think focusing on the users' needs will help
|
|
to attract participation and it's always the key value of
|
|
OpenStack projects.
|
|
|
|
For the Rocky cycle, I would like to focus on the following areas:
|
|
|
|
* Documentation improvements: get and keep documents updated with
|
|
the code, add more docs about architecture, design and deploy
|
|
considerations, etc.
|
|
|
|
* Better testing coverage for ensuring a solid code base.
|
|
|
|
* Improve integration with other OpenStack projects: catch up to
|
|
adopt new features and interfaces of the infrastructure projects
|
|
like Oslo, Keystone, Nova, Cinder, Neutron, Swift, etc.
|
|
|
|
* Bug triaging and smashing: pay more attentions to users' feedback
|
|
and also track how the project makes progress.
|
|
|
|
* Try to achieve consensus on topics like:
|
|
- generic datastore abstraction instead of extending from the MySQL
|
|
implementation;
|
|
- improve support for different datastore versions;
|
|
- improve support for clustering;
|
|
- a policy of accepting/deprecating/removing a datastore backend
|
|
support into/from the project;
|
|
- and maybe much more from other contributors and the users.
|
|
|
|
And make project goals based on the discussions.
|
|
|
|
* Keep up with OpenStack-wide goals.
|
|
|
|
* Looking forward opportunities to extend the team.
|
|
|
|
Thanks.
|
|
|
