Hi All,
|
|
|
|
We have had a few cycles recently of massive technical churn. We moved
|
|
away from an API, an method of updating DNS entries on the servers, got
|
|
incubated and survived the move to the big tent, and are now getting much more
|
|
integrated into the OpenStack ecosystem with Heat resources, Neutron work,
|
|
among other things.
|
|
|
|
We have had great leadership for this period, I am sorry to see Kiall leave
|
|
the PTL role he has performed so well over these cycles.
|
|
|
|
I have been contributing to Designate since the Havana release, and was made a
|
|
member of core quite a while ago. We have managed to bring together a great
|
|
group of people who contribute to Designate, and I would hope to keep growing
|
|
our community over the next cycle.
|
|
|
|
I want to focus on a few things this cycle, which I think will help us move
|
|
onward and upward:
|
|
|
|
- Documentation
|
|
|
|
We have some great code, but sometimes we lack instructions would that allow
|
|
others to use it to their full potential
|
|
|
|
- Drivers
|
|
|
|
We have a few Drivers for different DNS servers, and while we currently have
|
|
a grading scheme, I think we need to ensure they are all fully tested, either
|
|
in the gate or in 3rd party testing.
|
|
|
|
- The Big Rename
|
|
|
|
We need to do this asap (as soon as we go into M development), and remove all
|
|
trace of "domains" from the code base.
|
|
|
|
If elected I would try to work on these issues, and any others that may
|
|
(aka will) pop up in the cycle, while trying to get more people into the
|
|
designate community.
|
|
|
|
Thank you,
|
|
|
|
Graham |
