2022-09-27 Dedicate Zed Release to Ilya Etingof
|
|
===============================================
|
|
|
|
The OpenStack Technical Committee and contributors to the 26th release would
|
|
like to dedicate Zed in memory of Ilya Etingof, who passed away in August.
|
|
|
|
Ilya started contributing to the Ironic project in 2017. He was the lead
|
|
contributor to the `Sushy`_ project, `Sushy Redfish emulator`_, an important
|
|
contributor to Ironic and worked tirelessly to make hardware management
|
|
reliable and consistent. His important contributions included boot management,
|
|
out-of-band hardware inspection and virtual media boot.
|
|
|
|
Outside of the OpenStack community, he has maintained Python packages with a
|
|
particular focus on SNMP. For example: `pysnmp`_, `pysmi`_, `pyasn1`_,
|
|
softboxen and many others.
|
|
|
|
Ilya was dedicated to helping younger and under-represented people. He used
|
|
to run a virtualisation technologies course at the Masaryk University in Brno
|
|
where he spoke about OpenStack and Kubernetes.
|
|
|
|
He was also an active participant in the Outreachy program where he mentored
|
|
those who contributed to Open Source projects.
