In case you don't know me, I'm tellesnobrega on IRC. I started working +on Sahara in 2014 and became core in 2016 and not long after acted as PTL for +Pike cycle. + +First of all, I would like to thank Vitaly Gridnev for all the help he gave me +on the beginning of the process, it was of great importance. + +I have to confess that the job was a little overwhelming at the beggining and +took me some time to get used to the responsabilities and get a good grip on +how to handle the whole thing. I hope that I did a good job (the team can speak +better than I can about that) and hope that I will be able to continue working +as PTL this next cycle. + +If you elect me, I would like to concentrate on the following efforts: + +* CI and testing improvements. + + We currently don't have a specific CI deployed due to some problems with ours + servers but this is a issue that we are fixing at this time. What I want to + do is try to improve our CI for cases like this so we don't spend as much for + migration. Having a sort of backup instance or even run both with a + Load balancer so we can *always* a CI running. + Testing is always an issue that we have to take care and I hope to get us + some time to improve our test quality and coverage. + + * Bug triaging. + + This is something that I mentioned the last cycle but we never had time to + get around to it, so I'm putting this up again. Our bug queue is not extense, + but I did intend to shorten it and didn't. I plan to do this for this next + cycle. + + * Cleaning up specs + + We have quite a few proposed features (some of them are awesome) that never + got to be implemented. I would like to run over this and prioritize what we + would like to do and make this list smaller while we improve our project. + + * Documentation + + I've had troubles with our documentation, most people who try to run Sahara + have trouble due to faulty documentation. I would like for us on this cycle + to have a couple Doc days so we can remove old information, update what is + still relevant and make things simpler for users. + + I really enjoyed this last cycle as PTL and hope that I can do an even better + job this time.
