Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Hi everyone, This note is a follow-up to this discussion thread. Around the middle of April, the CloudStack PMC received an e-mail indicating (to our surprise) that we needed to provide the people organizing Montreal’s upcoming ApacheCon (which includes the CloudStack Collab Conf) with a

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Hi Ron, We (mainly Giles and Will, from what I am aware) are still in the process of finalizing how many rooms we get and for how long, so – unfortunately – we can’t answer your questions at least at this time. We’re making progress on that front, though. Thanks, Mike On 4/5/18, 10:28 PM,

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

By the time you go through one and write up a commentary, you have used quite a bit of your discretionary time. How many days are in the review period? How many reviewers have volunteered? I would hope that key organizers of the conference are only reviewing finalists where the author has

Perfect…then, unless anyone has other opinions they’d like to share on the topic, let’s follow that approach. On 4/5/18, 9:43 AM, "Rafael Weingärtner" wrote: That is exactly it. On Thu, Apr 5, 2018 at 12:37 PM, Tutkowski, Mike

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Hi Rafael, I think as long as we (the CloudStack Community) have the final say on how we fill our allotted slots in the CloudStack track of ApacheCon in Montreal, then it’s perfectly fine for us to leverage Apache’s normal review process to gather all the feedback from the larger Apache

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

What is your doubt? I am proposing the community that instead of creating a group to review, we can create only a group to select/organize CloudStack presentations according to the grades/ranking created by the whole Apache Community. On Thu, Apr 5, 2018 at 6:15 AM, manas biswal

Good Day Could you please elaborate bit more As earlier I was working with Apache CloudStack Currently I am working with OpenStack for NFV deployment, Telco acceleration etc. On Thu, Apr 5, 2018 at 2:28 AM, Rafael Weingärtner < rafaelweingart...@gmail.com> wrote: > I think everybody that

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

I think everybody that “raised their hands here” already signed up to review. Mike, what about if we only gathered the reviews from Apache main review system, and then we use that to decide which presentations will get in CloudStack tracks? Then, we reduce the work on our side (we also remove

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Hi Ron, I don’t actually have insight into how many people have currently signed up online to be CFP reviewers for ApacheCon. At present, I’m only aware of those who have responded to this e-mail chain. We should be able to find out more in the coming weeks. We’re still quite early in the

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

How many people have signed up to be reviewers? I don't think that scheduling is part of the review process and that can be done by the person/team "organizing" ApacheCon on behalf of the PMC. To me review is looking at content for - relevance - quality of the presentations (suggest fixes to

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Thanks for the feedback, Will! I agree with the approach you outlined. Thanks for being so involved in the process! Let’s chat with Giles once he’s back to see if we can get your questions answered. > On Mar 31, 2018, at 10:14 PM, Will Stevens wrote: > > In the past

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Hi Ron, I am definitely open to working this however makes the most sense. It looks like Will’s e-mail indicates that the process I suggested has been followed in the past (which is how I recall, as well). Let’s make sure I understood Will correctly. Will – Are you, in fact, indicating that

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

I am not sure about your concern in that case. I am not sure why people not interested in Cloudstack would volunteer as reviewers and want to pick bad presentations. I would be more worried that there are not enough good presentations proposed rather than some meritorious presentation will

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Hi Ron, From what I understand, the CloudStack proposals will be mixed in with all of the ApacheCon proposals. In the past when I’ve participated in these CloudStack panels to review proposals, we had to compare each proposal against the others to arrive at a balance of topics (i.e. not all

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Is this a real concern? Why would a large number of Apache contributors who are not interested in Cloudstack (enough to outvote those "part of the Cloudstack community") get involved as reviewers Reviewing involves some commitment of time so I am hard pressed to guess why some Apache

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Hi Rafael, It’s a little bit tricky in our particular situation. Allow me to explain: As you are likely aware, the CloudStack Collaboration Conference will be held as a track in the larger ApacheCon conference in Montreal this coming September. It is true, as you say, that anyone who wishes to

Re: Committee to Sort through CCC Presentation Submissions

Are we going to have a separated review process? I thought anybody could go here [1] and apply for a reviewer position and start reviewing. Well, that is what I did. I have already reviewed some CloudStack proposals (of course I did not review mines). After asking to review presentations, Rich
