== Folsom in EPEL ==
We ran a test day on 26 Oct for Folsom on EPEL based on
[http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/openstack-folsom/epel-6/ this 
side repo],
and a couple of buglets were identified before releasing to the official EPEL 
repo.
This side repo provided earler access to these packages, due to it's more 
flexible dependency requirements.

Folsom was then 
[http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/cloud/2012-November/001848.html 
released to EPEL testing] on Nov 2nd.

The existing Essex packages were migrated to the
[http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/openstack-essex/epel-6/ Essex 
EPEL side repository]

== OpenStack Installer (packstack) ==
Derek Higgins has been finalizing the multinode, scriptable OpenStack installer,
now known as "[https://github.com/fedora-openstack/packstack packstack]".

* It currently supports EPEL (but please avoid the facter update in 
updates-testing)
* Fedora support is problematic currently just to puppet and ruby version 
incompatibilities
* OpenStack Essex is fully supported
* OpenStack Folsom is mostly supported, but is waiting on upstream puppet to 
merge changes for cinder and swift.

== Essex stable releases ==
The lastest stable Essex release 2012.1.3 was released upstream for nova, 
keystone, horizon,
and this was integrated into Fedora 17 and EPEL.

== OpenStack Summit ==
The [http://www.openstack.org/summit/san-diego-2012/openstack-summit-sessions 
OpenStack summit]
in San Diego was a big success with up to 1300 attendees over the 4 days.

Lots of [http://wiki.openstack.org/Summit/Grizzly/Etherpads OpenStack Grizzly 
design notes]
were recorded from the coincident design summit.

== Heat project granted Incubation status ==
Providing it access to additional OpenStack common resources,
including tapping into CI, QA and Release management teams.

== Red Hat contributions ==

[http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2012-November/002189.html 
OpenvSwitch testing with SmokeStack] on Fedora 17.

Adam Young has been finalizing the last few issues with keystone PKI tokens,
and it's now the upstream default method.

Russell Bryant is continuing with the large effort in removing direct DB access 
from nova-compute,
and has outlined the 
[http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2012-October/thread.html#1733
 latest plan and status]

Eoghan Glynn and Angus Salkeld are now core members of the ceilometer project.

Dan Radez presented initial work and a video demo of 
[http://www.jaddog.org/2012/10/26/thermal/ Thermal],
an interface to heat in horizon.

There is too much to track in detail the OpenStack upstream activity of Red Hat 
developers,
but here is a link showing the [http://goo.gl/wklOk latest Red Hat OpenStack
