Hi there, I'd like to announce my candidacy for the TC.
About me -------- I've been working on OpenStack for 2 years now. I'm one of the early contributors to the Ceilometer project, and worked towards its incubation and integration. Now, I am the PTL for Ceilometer since the Havana cycle. Nowadays I work on various area of OpenStack, while still focusing on Ceilometer. I've been also nominated and became a core contributor for Oslo recently. Outside OpenStack, I've been a FOSS contributor for the last 15 years in various other projects (Debian, Freedesktop, Emacs…). I like to think that I know a lot about the dynamics that make FOSS working and how to build and organize successful open source projects. Platform -------- I've been member of the TC for last 6 months. I've seen the enthusiasm that drives people towards OpenStack, and the amount of incubation proposal for projects that we received. Dealing with these requests has been a major feature of the TC these last months, and I expect it to continue this way. Especially because the TC chose to incubate a few projects already, and judging if they are ready to go out of incubation will be its duty. I hope that my experience could help in this regard. On this issue, I've been really open minded and I think OpenStack should generally welcome the incubation of projects, while setting right correct criteria for projects to become integrated. Such standards should be integration with other projects, reusability of work done, or reduction of overlaps. I don't envision OpenStack as a IaaS-only platform, but as an ecosystem of coherent projects plugged together, providing services and solutions to end users. More generally, as a TC member I will continue to work to make OpenStack the success it is and to be sure it continues to grow, connect with friendly projects, and remain a welcoming technical community.
