Hi all, I've been wanting to recognize the efforts of glance-cores for a while and send this & alike emails for a while. Found a good time to do so. Currently, there are 12 (human) core reviewers in the Glance program (same for all concerned repos) and they have been providing excellent input to the project. Each individual has a different personality and in this email I wanted to give them virtual badges for the kind of input (I think) they have been providing.
May be this email can also be useful to those who want specific type of input on their patches/review but isn't intended for that purpose (a good side effect nonetheless). Be mindful that not everyone is dedicated to just the Glance program. And, this email isn't about the individual's assignments or their time share to Glance Here we go on the badges (in Lexicographical order):- * Brian Rosmaita : "Pro" -- his reviews are detailed, gives a diverse perspective of the domain & cross-domains, gives technical, product and operational perspective and in a very professional tone. Title can't be any less :-) * Erno Kuvaja : "The dependable" -- always clear cut in his review and stance, keeps an eye on the review pipe, pushes things through if others are stuck. You can rely on him to get reviews done. :-) * Fei Long Wang : "The tenacious" -- works in not necessarily a convenient time zone relative to the majority team, in way completes our 24 hours cycle for those needing reviews at those hours, picks up reviews for important work if stuck or to help rookies. Doesn't give up on things and keep fighting to stay sync with the team. :-) * Flavio Percoco : "The fireball" -- very enthusiastic, isn't afraid to sign up for more work, keeps activity up. Also has a unique perspective on things. You can rely on giving him complicated things to see them through if others are stuck arguing. :-) * Glance Bot : "Skynet" -- do I need to say more? :-) * Hemanth Makkapati : "The astute" -- always comprehensive in his reviews, attempts a full body scan of the patch, gives his fullest to test things on developer or staging environments. Sometimes plays devil's advocate and keep people on check. :-) * Ian Cordasco : "The pundit" -- has a abode of knowledge when it comes to python, OpenStack, Open Source, etc. You can expect honest critical reviews from him while keeping them at a temparate practicality level. You can expect your perspective refresher after his review. :-) * Kairat Kushaev : "The scintillating" -- involves himself all round the project, gives meticulous reviews and keeps things moving. A recent addition to the team yet very effective developer and a core. You can expect reviews of all types from this guy. :-) * Louis Taylor : "The zealot" -- extremely enthusiastic, very fast moving and a brilliant hacker. He can get things done for you in short time including reviews. He has involved himself in different parts of Glance and related projects. :-) * Mike Fedosin : "The sage" -- smart, practical and wise in his code and reviews; finds the most unique and important bugs and solutions. Has a good understanding of the project constructs and direction. You can expect some shower of wisdom. :-) * Nikhil Komawar : "The router" -- going to be the postman for newton. you need to watch out for pings, emails and 'heads-ups'. :-) * Sabari : "The counselor" -- will make sure you and reviews are on the right track, he can give you advice for both the spectrum. Expect to find yourself coming to practical terms after his reviews. :-) * Stuart McLaren : "The virtuoso" -- gives a detailed explanation of the involved dimensions in his review and code; will always make you aware of the usefulness and pain points of the proposals. You shouldn't be optimistic of your code being secure unless you have his +1 to the bare minimum. :-) As a consequence you can find how the Glance team complements each other with their ways of working. If you get input from 3-4 of different cores per review, I'm confident that the patches will be rock solid. However, that's not practical and I do not want to encourage that on everyday basis. It is merely an observation to share the best of things with the wider community. Hope you enjoyed it! Cheers -- Thanks, Nikhil __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: [email protected]?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
