New Feature Planning
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New features are discussed via IRC or mailing list (with [kolla] prefix).
Kolla project keeps blueprints in `Launchpad <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible>`__.
Specs are welcome but not strictly required.
Task Tracking
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kolla project tracks tasks in `Launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible>`__.
Note this is the same place as for bugs.
If you're looking for some smaller, easier work item to pick up and get started
on, search for the 'low-hanging-fruit' tag.
A more lightweight task tracking is done via etherpad - `Whiteboard <https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/KollaWhiteBoard>`__.
Reporting a Bug
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You found an issue and want to make sure we are aware of it? You can do so
on `Launchpad <https://bugs.launchpad.net/kolla-ansible>`__.
Note this is the same place as for tasks.
Getting Your Patch Merged
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Most changes proposed to Kolla Ansible require two +2 votes from core reviewers
before +W. A release note is required on most changes as well. Release notes
policy is described in :ref:`its own section <release-notes>`.
Significant changes should have documentation and testing provided with them.
Project Team Lead Duties
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All common PTL duties are enumerated in the `PTL guide <https://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide/ptl.html>`_.
Kolla-Ansible-specific PTL duties are listed in `Kolla Ansible PTL guide <https://docs.openstack.org/kolla-ansible/latest/contributor/ptl-guide.html>`_.
