Hi OSA peeps. I apologise in advance for what may seem like an impertinent question. And for those playing along at home, I was just getting the hang of contributing to OSA when last year my employer decided that some of us were no longer needed, and OpenStack lost quite a few full time employed contributors.
So my question is... what is the health status of OSA? Is there still a core of committed contributors? I only check in on OSA code reviews rarely now, but activity seems a lot less than it was. Before you answer, imagine that I now work for a moderately large, potential consumer of OSA. Is OSA the future, or have other deployment projects made it less relevant? -- MC On Thu, May 3, 2018 at 6:13 PM, Andy McCrae <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Now that we are all part-time, I'd like to toy with a new idea, >> proposed in the past by Jesse, to rotate the duties with people who >> are involved in OSA, or want to get involved more (it's not restricted >> to core developers!). >> >> One of the first duties to be handled this way could be the weekly >> meeting. >> >> Handling the meeting is not that hard, it just takes time to prepare, >> and to facilitate. >> >> I think everyone should step into this, not only core developers, but >> core developers are now expected to run the meetings when their turn >> comes. >> >> >> What are the actions to take: >> - Prepare the triage.
