Hi Kristy,
At some point I thought I'd read there was a per-site limit of the
number of RFEs that could be submitted but I can't find it skimming
through email. I'd think submitting 10 would be unreasonable but would 2
or 3 be OK?

Reminder, the*October 1st* deadline is approaching. We’re looking for at
least a few RFEs (Requests For Enhancements) for this first forum, so if
you’re interesting in promoting your RFE please reach out to one of us,
or even here on the list.
Thanks,
Kristy

GPFS/Spectrum Scale Users,
Here’s a long-ish note about our plans to try and improve the RFE
process. We’ve tried to include a tl;dr version if you just read the
headers. You’ll find the details underneath ;-) and reading to the end
is ideal.
IMPROVING THE RFE PROCESS
As you’ve heard on the list, and at some of the in-person User Group
events, we’ve been talking about ways we can improve the RFE process.
We’d like to begin having an RFE forum, and have it be de-coupled from
the in-person events because we know not everyone can travel.
LIGHTNING PRESENTATIONS ON-LINE
In general terms, we’d have regular on-line events, where RFEs could
be/very briefly/(5 minutes, lightning talk) presented by the
requester. There would then be time for brief follow-on discussion
and questions. The session would be recorded to deal with large time
zone differences.
The live meeting is planned for October 10^th 2018, at 4PM BST (that
should be 11am EST if we worked is out right!)
FOLLOW UP POLL
A poll, independent of current RFE voting, would be conducted a couple
days after the recording was available to gather votes and feedback
on the RFEs submitted —we may collect site name, to see how many votes
are coming from a certain site.
MAY NOT GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME
We view this supplemental RFE process as organic, that is, we’ll learn
as we go and make modifications. The overall goal here is to highlight
the RFEs that matter the most to the largest number of UG members by
providing a venue for people to speak about their RFEs and collect
feedback from fellow community members.
*RFE PRESENTERS WANTED, SUBMISSION DEADLINE OCTOBER 1ST
*We’d like to guide a small handful of RFE submitters through this
process the first time around, so if you’re interested in being a
presenter, let us know now. We’re planning on doing the online meeting
and poll for the first time in mid-October, so the submission deadline
for your RFE is October 1st. If it’s useful, when you’re drafting your
RFE feel free to use the list as a sounding board for feedback. Often
sites have similar needs and you may find someone to collaborate with
on your RFE to make it useful to more sites, and thereby get more
votes. Some guidelines are here:

You can submit you RFE by email to:[email protected]

*PARTICIPANTS (AKA YOU!!), VIEW AND VOTE
*We are seeking very good participation in the RFE on-line events
needed to make this an effective method of Spectrum Scale Community
and IBM Developer collaboration. * It is to your benefit to
participate and help set priorities on Spectrum Scale enhancements!!
*We want to make this process light lifting for you as a participant.
We will limit the duration of the meeting to 1 hour to minimize the
use of your valuable time.
Please register for the online meeting via Eventbrite
(https://www.eventbrite.com/e/spectrum-scale-request-for-enhancements-voting-tickets-49979954389)
– we’ll send details of how to join the online meeting nearer the time.
Thanks!
Simon, Kristy, Bob, Bryan and Carl!
