Ian Jolliffe: Candidate for StarlingX TSC Election
|
|
Affiliation: Wind River Systems
|
|
|
|
StarlingX is an exciting and growing project with which I have had the honor and
|
|
privilege to contribute to from its launch. I am a founding member of the TSC
|
|
and over the past year I have helped facilitate the TSC, welcome new members and
|
|
help guide the project from a technical perspective. I am a frequent speaker at
|
|
industry events on the values of StarlingX and share my passion for edge
|
|
computing widely. I see edge as having the ability to transform people's lives
|
|
through transformation of technology used in health care and transportation -
|
|
StarlingX is a big part of making that happen.
|
|
|
|
I have contributed to OPNFV and other open source projects over the years. I
|
|
have a deep technical knowledge of distributed computing and optimization of
|
|
edge focused solutions. I have helped out in the Edge Computing talk selection
|
|
committee for the last summit and will have volunteered to do so again for
|
|
Shanghai.
|
|
|
|
I was honored and humbled to receive a community award at the last summit, for
|
|
my contributions to the StarlingX project - [0]

|

|
On the TSC I would have a few areas of focus:
|
|
|
|
Continue to advocate for the 4 Open model of development. Help the project pass
|
|
the graduation criteria from the pilot phase as defined by the OpenStack
|
|
foundation. My goal is to champion and contribute to increasing test focus and
|
|
culture of the project around test. This area is so important to the health of
|
|
any open source project (well any project actually). This will help new
|
|
developers contribute more easily and the project to grow the contribution base
|
|
and speed of development. We had a good discussion at the PTG in Denver a few
|
|
weeks ago. I plan on working with the community to find ways we can better
|
|
leverage Zuul and other projects to accelerate the project and increase quality
|
|
of the code.
|
|
|
|
I am focused on growing the community, maintaining the technical relevance of
|
|
the project and continuing StarlingX's journey to a diverse and thriving open
|
|
source project. I value the contributions of the OpenStack Foundation and their
|
|
guidance is something that has helped the project on our journey to graduate the
|
|
pilot phase.
|
|
|
|
Thank you for your consideration for me to continue as a contributor to the TSC
|
|
and the Starling X project overall.
