I also completely agree with this policy - and I hope all the developers contributing code to non-core plugins like me will agree as well. There is nothing like verifiability. This will also make a lot easier code reviews for non-core plugins; one of the reasons for which these reviews tend to have a higher turnaround is that reviewers have a really hard time and very often can't tell whether the code they're reviewing will actually work or not.
So, I would say this is not additional burden being asked to contributors, but is actually good for plugin developers as well. We're already working to ensure the plugin we contribute to is compliant with this policy. Otherwise there is the following workaround git clone git://github.com/openstack/neutron.git git rm -r neutron/plugins/<your_plugin_name> gir rm -r neutron/tests/unit/<your_plugin_name> git rm -r etc/neutron/plugins/<your_plugin_name> git commit -a git review [The thing about the workaround was meant to be humorous] Regards, Salvatore On 15 November 2013 16:23, Russell Bryant <rbry...@redhat.com> wrote: > On 11/14/2013 08:00 PM, Dan Smith wrote: > >> - Each third party plugin/driver shall designate a point of contact for > >> the coordinated release cycle. > >> - To be designated as compatible, a third-party plugin and/or driver > >> code must implement external third party integration testing. > >> - Policy is in effect immediately for new plugin/drivers. > >> - Existing plugin/drivers have until Icehouse-2 to become compliant. > > > > I just wanted to say that I think this aggressive approach is great. > > Kudos for setting a high bar, Mark! > > Huge +1 from me, too!
