Re: [openstack-dev] [nova][cinder] Would anyone from Nova Core be able to join the Cinder mid-cycle meetup?

2015-07-30 Thread D'Angelo, Scott
We'll have a Google Hangout for the Cinder mid-cycle for virtual attendees and 
will post the links on IRC and the etherpad:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/cinder-liberty-midcycle-meetup

We'll make sure we ping mreidem and the Nova channel when we're discussing 
Cinder - Nova topics.

 All,

 I had the opportunity to chat with John Garbutt when he was here in 
 Rochester for the Nova mid-cycle meet-up.  We discussed the fact 
 that there was much to be gained by improving the communication 
 between the Cinder and Nova teams.

 We do have names written down for CrossProjectLiaisons for other projects.
 That is helping a little, but I am sure we can refine the idea so its 
 more effective:

 aisons

 The basic ideas would be to get folks who are in the Nova meeting 
 regularly to jump into the Cinder meeting when required, and someone 
 else to do the reverse.

 What I am finding is that some folks are reluctant to come forward as 
 Liasons initially, despite their possible interest. Some reasons for 
 hesitation might include uncertainty of what responsibilities are 
 understood with the role, uncertainty if there actually is time in the 
 individual's schedule to attend meetings and be available for 
 questions, clarification and follow up, that sort of thing.

 I am finding good success by encouraging someone who might consider 
 trying on a cross project hat to do something along those lines: 
 attend a meeting, follow up on an email, engage in a conversation with 
 someone in another project on a specific issue and see how it feels. 
 If it doesn't feel like a good fit, fair enough, thanks for trying it 
 out. If you can help with one thing (example: cells with nova and 
 neutron) great, you don't have to take on everything with the two 
 projects, just focus on one issue and that is most welcome, thank you. 
 (Thanks to mlavelle for volunteering with the cells cross project work 
 here.)

 If you have done a few things, shown up for meetings for two projects, 
 followed a particular spec, helped both projects become better 
 informed about how the issue affects those projects, wonderful. Then 
 if you feel like added your name to the wikipage, great, that helps 
 others. But please don't feel that signing up has to be the first 
 step, for some they experience the work for a while before they agree 
 to it publicly, what ever works for you.

 Thanks Jay, John, and Paul, glad to see this conversation progress, 
 Anita.


 For specific patches that really important to cinder, it would be 
 good to advertise them in the usual place for nova:
 https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/liberty-nova-priorities-tracking

 With that idea in mind, it was suggested that the Cinder team open 
 an invitation to Nova members to attend our mid-cycle meet-up.  The 
 mid-cycle meet-up, of course, is not a secret.  A member of the Nova 
 team has always been welcome to join, just hoping that an explicit 
 invitation here may spark some interest.  :-)  Note:  John 
 considered attending but is unable to do so.

 So looks like Paul might be there.

 I can try and join a hangout, if there is something urgent.
 That approach has big limitations, but happy to try (ideally AM, 
 given I am in the UK).

 The mid-cycle meet-up for Cinder is 8/4 through 8/7 at the HP site 
 in Fort Collins, CO .  Friday is an optional code sprint day for 
 those who are able to stay that long.  Details about the meet-up can 
 be seen on our mid-cycle meetup planning etherpad [1].

 If you are able to join us and help us work through the various 
 challenges we are having between Cinder and Nova it would be greatly 
 appreciated!

 Thanks,
 John

If we want a name for nova liaison to cinder, then I can put my name in, I've 
spent enough time in the cinder channel lately and have been reviewing more 
volume-related code in nova where I'm not *completely* lost, just *kind of*

Re: [openstack-dev] [nova][cinder] Would anyone from Nova Core be able to join the Cinder mid-cycle meetup?

2015-07-28 Thread Murray, Paul (HP Cloud)
Hi jay,

There are a few Nova people in HP who intend to work on this area (perhaps you 
have heard that from Scott or Duncan). In fact I brought up that this would be 
coming up in Vancouver and that we intend to support it. Unfortunately none of 
us are available that week. I would like to be kept involved and will have to 
catch up with the other HP guys after the event.

In the meantime, if you want names to be involved beyond the cinder mid-cycle 
you can put down as a place holder for HP and I will sort out people to be 
involved when we are all back from vacation.
