Yes, understood. There are people focused on CI/CD work currently, and I don't think this effort would take away from that focus, other than the time it takes to do patch reviews, but I don't think that should be a reason not to do it. It'd be nice to have the images delivered as output from a well tested CD run, but I'd like to not delay until we have that. I think we could make this available quicker than we could get to that point. Plus, I think if we make this easier to try, we might get more community participation. Right now, I don't think we're attracting people who want to try a test/development tripleo based deployment with devtest. We're really only attracting people who want to contribute and develop on tripleo. Which, may certainly be as designed at this point. But I feel we have a lot of positive momentum coming out of summit, so it makes sense to me to try and give people something easier to try. Given that, I think the next steps would be: - add a bit more detail in a blueprint and get some feedback on that - open up cards to track the work in the tripleo trello - start the work on it :). If it's just me working on it, I'm fine with that. I expect there may be 1 or 2 other folks that might work on it as well, but these aren't folks that are looking at the CI/CD stories right now. Any opposition to that approach or other thoughts? -- -- James Slagle -- _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
