[Openstack] Individual Member Elections

2012-07-29 Thread Jonathan Bryce
The OpenStack Foundation has already attracted over 2,000 Individual Members in 
a little over a week. It's a very exciting moment for all of us involved in 
this effort, but also brings responsibility for each Individual and Corporate 
member.

We've learned that someone may have violated the basic principles that hold 
this community together by trying to affect the nominations for the Individual 
Member elections. This is not what our community stands for, and we do not want 
to let the actions of one or a few tarnish the reputation of the thousands of 
individuals who are working to make OpenStack a great place to develop open 
source software. We are so determined to uphold our values that every 
member--individual or corporate--agrees to a code of conduct that prohibits 
abusive behavior and attempts to manipulate our elections.

Our bylaws and election process have been defined and overseen by very 
experienced, independent legal counsel, Mark Radcliffe. We are completely 
committed to ensuring this process is open, fair and legitimate in accordance 
with our bylaws and Delaware corporate law. To ensure that the process is open, 
fair and legitimate, we are looking for individuals who would like to volunteer 
to be inspectors through the duration of the election to certify the outcome 
along with our counsel. No more than two affiliated members (working for the 
same company) can be inspectors, and any candidates who wish to run for 
election are also ineligible to be inspectors. As stated in the bylaws, Each 
inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall take and 
sign an oath to faithfully execute the duties of inspector with strict 
impartiality and according to the best of his ability. This will require a 
firm time commitment from any volunteers, as they will need to be available at 
a number of points through the process to fulfill their duties in a timely 
manner. If you are interested in being an inspector, let me know.

Any complaints or concerns about the election process are taken extremely 
seriously. Each complaint will be reviewed by our independent counsel and 
addressed or brought before the full Board at its first meeting as appropriate. 
To facilitate reporting we have created an email address that is received only 
by the Foundation's independent counsel for review: 
electionmoni...@openstack.org

We are also working on process improvements for nominations and elections--more 
details on that coming soon. In the meantime, please speak up or contact me or 
Mark Radcliffe directly if you have any concerns. We have all come a very long 
way in establishing the OpenStack Foundation--our Foundation--and are right on 
the threshold of having it up and running. Now is the time for us all to pull 
together and to make sure we continue to build the kind of inclusive, 
supportive community that has come so far in the last 2 years.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Awesome and kudos to everyone making it successful.

Well said, we cannot allow the entire community to be tainted by the

 Our bylaws and election process have been defined and overseen by very
 experienced, independent legal counsel, Mark Radcliffe.

My understanding from:

is that Mark was retained to provide additional independent legal
advice to the drafting committee.

I don't mean to give offence, but I must admit the above strikes me as
rather bizarre.

The role inspector you refer to above seems to be about an individual
who may be appointed to make a written report of a meeting and any
voting that happens there, including by proxy.

You are laying out a mechanism for handling complaints about the
election process which involves Mark Radcliffe being the sole recipient
of those complaints. I know neither what your current role in the
Foundation is nor how Mark was appointed to this position.

Further, the mechanism above does not address the issue at hand - how
should the Foundation handle a complaint about a member of our
community[1]?

Personally, I assume good good faith and there's some reasonable
explanation for how this all came about, but we need to be careful here
- having people (apparently arbitrarily) assume roles in the Foundation
and establish new processes doesn't help matters IMHO.

...

Seeing the brouhaha on twitter last night, I had hoped the target of the
allegation would be named and we could sort this out in the open.
However, a name doesn't appear forthcoming and the text of the complaint
itself has been deleted.

Given the code of conduct that members are subject:

  http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/Foundation/CommunityCodeOfConduct

and the bit about OpenStack members ... are ultimately accountable to
the OpenStack Board of Directors, I think the way forward is for the
complaint to be made formally to the board so that they can investigate
the matter and report on their actions to address it.

The bylaws name Jonathan Bryce, Mark Collier and Alice King as the
Initial Board. The complaint should be made to them.

If the complainant isn't satisfied with that and can't make the
complaint public, then we may need another process. That would need some
open discussion to figure out and IMHO may just be that the complaint is
taken to a meeting of the corporate

That makes a whole lot more sense.

Jonathon,
How is it possible for someone to taint the nomination process?  Are we
not allowed to promote our nominations? In light of the fact that the
process is closed and we can't know how many nominations we had
received, it seems fine to me to encourage nominations.  Have some
unwritten rules been broken, I am completely confused?  Saying someone
violated the basic principles that hold our community together is an
extreme statement. Our community does things in the open, by default.
Had we followed our basic principles in this nomination process, I
can't help but think we wouldn't be in this situation.

Certainly no rules against promoting your nomination or candidacy (or someone

completely different matter and involves a serious allegation of harassment

That's surprising as the qpid code does:

if self.connection.heartbeat:
  times.append(time.time() + self.connection.heartbeat)

Notice how time.time() is seconds, and so
heartbeat must be given in seconds.
Perhaps there is another issue with the scheduling of this?
How are you monitoring the connection?

Re: [Openstack] [Bug 1030646] [NEW] Devstack vs. Horizon client versions

2012-07-29 Thread Monty Taylor
Hey!

This might be fairly tricky to fix properly given the design of the
devstack gate. I could be wrong, it might not be terrible now that we
can release new client lib versions to PyPI more quickly. The devstack
gate explicitly tests proposed change to trunk of one project against
tip of trunk across all the other projects. That's great for the dev
purpose, and can solidify through sequencing during the
milestone-proposed period, but if we have people with standalone horizon
installations that are tracking trunk more closely, we might need to do
some more thinking.

Could I request that you drop by the CI meeting on Tuesday so we can
chat about it interactively? I think this is important and that we
should do everything we can to get this right.

[Openstack] Hiding complexity of paste config files from operators

2012-07-29 Thread Lorin Hochstein
All:

I wanted to discuss the usability of the paste config files from an operator's 
point of view. The paste config files are opaque to administrators who are 
trying to stand an OpenStack cloud for the first time, since they expose a lot 
of implementation details about the middleware. I can follow the instructions 
in the Install and Deploy guide, but I have no idea what the options I don't 
edit are, and if the documentation has deviated from the implementation, I'm 
pretty much stuck.

As an example, the install and deploy guide says to add authtoken to the 
pipeline:glance-api section in glance-api-paste.ini 
http://docs.openstack.org/essex/openstack-compute/install/content/configure-glance-files.html,
 the example in the docs looks like this:

[pipeline:glance-api]
pipeline = versionnegotiation authtoken auth-context apiv1app

If I install from packages on precise, there's also some lines that look like 
this:

[pipeline:glance-api-keystone]
pipeline = versionnegotiation authtoken context apiv1app


It looks similar, and it has keystone in there, so maybe that's intended to 
be used for keystone? And it looks pretty similar, but there's a auth-context 
instead of context. Maybe the pipeline:glance-api-keystone is used for 
something else in glance? In the end, I'm just going to slavishly follow the 
documentation, and I have no mental model of what these options do. 

On the other hand, the traditional configuration files (e.g., nova.conf) are 
(relatively) well-documented, have default values, and everything that's 
exposed is something that could potentially be changed by an administrator. In 
particular, there's generally a one-to-one correspondence between changing a 
configuration setting and changing the behavior of the system in a way that's 
meaningful for the operator. For example, enabling FlatDHCP in nova.conf is 
just setting a config option to one value:

network_manager=nova.network.manager.FlatDHCPManager


Assuming that the *-paste.ini files always need to be there, is there some way 
we could avoid requiring admins to edit these files, and instead make it more 
like editing the .conf files? For example, could the paste.ini files be 
generated from the corresponding .conf file as needed?


Take care,

Lorin

 Perhaps there is another issue with the scheduling of this?

That's likely. While I verified that the patch successfully fixed our
connection timeout issue, I didn't look closely to see exactly where
the behavior changed...and the connection that is standing out now
belongs to nova-volume, whereas the timouts were happening with
nova-compute.

 How are you monitoring the connection?

Our firewall is a Cisco ASDM (6.1).  I'm monitoring the connection by
running:

  show conn lport 5672

Which gets me:

  TCP compute-hosts:630 10.243.16.151:39756 controllers:621 
openstack-controller:5672 idle 0:00:00 Bytes 6410148 FLAGS - UBOI
  TCP compute-hosts:630 10.243.16.151:39881 controllers:621 
openstack-controller:5672 idle 0:00:04 Bytes 10470 FLAGS - UBOI
  TCP compute-hosts:630 10.243.16.151:39755 controllers:621 
openstack-controller:5672 idle 0:00:02 Bytes 9717108 FLAGS - UBOI
  TCP compute-hosts:630 10.243.16.151:39736 controllers:621 
openstack-controller:5672 idle 0:03:59 Bytes 36206 FLAGS - UBOI
  TCP compute-hosts:630 10.243.16.151:39752 controllers:621 
openstack-controller:5672 idle 0:00:03 Bytes 4313246 FLAGS - UBOI

Where the fields are:

  protocol source interface source ip/port dest. interface dest 
ip/port idle idle time ...
 
The connection from port 39736 on the compute host (which is the
nova-volume process) regularly cycles up to 5 minutes of idle time
before resetting to 0 (and the firewall sets the idle time to zero
whenever any traffic passes across the connection).

And indeed, if I run a packet trace on this connection, I can verify
that packets are only showing up at five-minute intervals.
