While this includes me, I'm really not taking this personally. I'm thinking about it in the general sense.

This is a huge and important point. The N to N trust model we've been operating under doesn't scale. Neutron is trying to move to a different trust model that has proven to scale much further than we've been able to do within a single OpenStack project so far. If Kyle and others leading a section of Neutron trust me, I'm happy to jump in and do more reviews. If they trust me, I'd hope others not as familiar with me or my work can trust by proxy. The same applies to Brandon. I honestly don't know Brandon very well, but I have a high level of trust for Kyle. Kyle trusts him, so +1 from me. Kyle has a tough role here. It means he gives up some control, but it's the way the project will scale. Kyle doesn't have to develop a close trust relationship with everyone merging code into the main neutron repo, much less all the other repos. He can delegate some of that. It only works if everyone buys into this way of thinking. -- Russell Bryant __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: [email protected]?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
