Greetings, I'd like to put my name out there for the Glance PTL position.
Few words about me: I'm Flavio Percoco (flaper87 on IRC and everywhere). I've been an OpenStack fellow for the last 2 1/2 years. During this time I've spread my efforts on several projects but mainly on Glance, from which you may/may not know me. Glance ====== Since my early days in OpenStack, I've been part of every core - core in terms of service, not membership - decision in Glance. From what to do with the registry service, glance_store, API stability etc. Throughout these decisions, I've participated in the release process, leading positions and also as a voice for those changes. I'm happy to say that our project has grown a lot and that we're facing new challenges that I'd love to be part of and more importantly, I'd love to help leading those efforts along side our, growing, community. Interesting things happened in Kilo but I'd like to focus now on what's coming next, Liberty. One of the things that is still pending for us is the work on Artifacts. Despite I don't believing that Glance is the best for it to live forever, I'd love to see this work done and for it to grow. The effort that is being put there not only code-wise, feature-wise but also review-wise is already a good enough proof of how the impact this could have in our community. In addition to the above, I'd love our team to improve Glance's API story throughout OpenStack and see such API grow and stabilize. This not only refers to the service itself but the libraries that Glance relies on too. I strongly believe that stability and consistency should be part of our main goals in the upcoming development cycle. New features will be proposed for sure and I'd love us all to review them together and decide together what's best for the project's future baring in mind the goals of the cycle. Community ========= Thankfully enough, I've had the pleasure to be involved in many areas of our community and this has given me a good knowledge of how our community is structured and how the different parts interact with each other. From the stability team to our infrastructure team going through OpenStack's common ground (Oslo). I'd love to use this broad view in this position as I've been using it as a contributor. In the other hand, I'm also known from being noisy, speaking up and ready to fight whenever it's needed (even when it is not :P). Just like with everything else, I'm looking forward to apply all this to this position as I've done in my current position. Last but no least, I've had the pleasure to be Zaqar's PTL during Kilo (and co-PTL since the beginning), which has as well prepared me for this task. Thanks for reading thus far, I hope you'll consider me as a good candidate for this position. Flavio -- @flaper87 Flavio Percoco
