I would like to announce my candidacy for OpenStackClient PTL. I started this project nearly three years ago in order to give CLI users a uniform experience in interacting with OpenStack clouds. OSC was recently the first project added as part of the new governance model.
While response to OSC has always been good the active developer group has generally been small and development slower than we would have liked. I am now in a position to change that and step up the pace of development and broaden the contributor base. The future of OSC holds some interesting problems to solve, including adopting a single low-level API to provide the backend REST handlers and addressing the issue of installation and a multitude of dependencies. We have the introduction of a cloud/client configuration ability coming soon and client-side caching of tokens and other cloud data following after. There is also some refinement to make running in interactive mode more suitable as a Bash coprocess. And as always, keeping up with the project commands is still a top priority I believe there are certain areas where a strong guiding hand provides a better end result than only building on consensus, and user interface design consistency is one of those areas. So much so that I like to say the 'C' in OSC stands for 'consistency'. The rest of the backronym is left as an exercise to the reader. I would be honored to have your support.
