 to one of the OpenStack Os.  For example, we have forked Chef cookbooks,

 the Compass Ansible playbooks back to openstack upstream repo
 (os-ansible-deployment).

 We also need to reach out to other related projects, such as Ironic, to
 make sure that where our efforts overlap, we provided added value, not
 different ways of doing the same thing.

 Lot of work we think will add to the OpenStack community.

 Hi Weidong,

This looks like an excellent project and we (the openstack-ansible project)
love to assist you with the integration of Compass with openstack-ansible
(aka os-ansible-deployment).

I'd like to discuss with your team how we can work together to facilitate
Compass' consumption of the playbooks/roles we produce in a suitable way
and will try to attend the next meeting as I seem to have missed this
week's meeting). We'd like to understand the project's needs so that we can
work towards defined goals to accommodate them, while also maintaining our
stability for other downstream consumers.

We also invite you to attend our next meeting on Thu 16:00 UTC in
#openstack-meeting-4 - details are here for reference:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/openstack-ansible#Community_Meeting

Looking forward to working with you!

Best regards,

Jesse

Jesse,

Many thanks for your message and the support of this planned integration
work. I added Xicheng, and Justin, who are looking into getting Compass
deployment to work with OSAD as of now.

Sorry I missed your meeting today and we will definitely join your meeting
next week. In the meantime, we will reach out to you if we run into any
issues.

Thanks,
Weidong

2015-08-12 Thread Jay Pipes
A big +1 from me, Weidong, for reaching out to the OpenStack community 
and embracing it.


I look forward to seeing the Compass developer community *collaborating* 
with OSAD, the OpenStack Chef community, and other projects, like Ironic.


Best,
-jay
