I haven't burned out yet! I'm running for reelection to a second
|
|
term for the post of Infrastructure PTL. I've been a core reviewer
|
|
and root sysadmin for OpenStack's community-maintained project
|
|
infrastructure since October 2012. In that time it's been my
|
|
pleasure to help further the tremendous growth we've experienced as
|
|
a team and within the OpenStack community as a whole.

As a free software idealist I'm proud not only of what we accomplish
|
|
but how we manage to do so without compromising on our standards of
|
|
transparency and openness, even when it may inconveniently highlight
|
|
new problems we also need to solve. The Infrastructure team serves
|
|
as a shining example of how communities can effectively collaborate
|
|
and produce while not relying on crutches of proprietary, commercial
|
|
tools. Expect me to continue encouraging our community to make the
|
|
hard choice in favor of free tools, of being a helpful downstream
|
|
for the communities of the tools we use, and of acting as a
|
|
responsible upstream to those who wish to reuse the tools we've
|
|
written to make our own work possible.
|
|
|
|
In the past cycle the team has worked together to connect four new
|
|
service providers into our donated CI resource pool, performed a
|
|
major version-skip upgrade to our code review system, rolled out a
|
|
unified mirror network for a variety of package types used in CI
|
|
jobs, and brought a number of other new services online to make our
|
|
developer community's lives more convenient. We've also made great
|
|
strides on many other major specs, including nearing production on
|
|
Infra-Cloud and phasing out our old and inconsistent snapshot-based
|
|
worker images. I'm continually amazed at what this team is able to
|
|
accomplish together in such a short span of time, and have hopes the
|
|
coming cycle will hold at least as many amazing accomplishments.
|
|
|
|
The PTL's role is that of a communicator, facilitator, coordinator
|
|
and mentor; that's how I intent to continue spending my time in
|
|
support of our team, if you'll have me.
