I'm pleased to announce my candidacy for Swift PTL for the Dalmation cycle. As usual, we have a great many projects currently in flight: - Supporting Python 3.12 - Adding more fine-grained metrics, while keeping it configurable to not break existing metrics pipelines nor overwhelm them - Improving S3 compatibility, enabling a broader community of tools to work out of the box - More operator tooling for expiring objects - Better process management for WSGI servers - Backend ratelimiting to improve per-node load shedding I'm excited to see how each of these will move forward over the next cycle.
