[OpenStack Foundation] Transparency Policy - Draft
by Lauren Sell 22 Oct '13

22 Oct '13

Hi everyone, The Board of Directors created a subcommittee at the February meeting to discuss transparency and communication processes. One deliverable of the subcommittee was to create an official Transparency Policy, outlining the steps the Board is taking to be transparent, and to provide clear explanation around the types of information that is confidential or embargoed. The subcommittee presented an outline for the Transparency Policy at the April board meeting, and then the Foundation's legal counsel DLA Piper created an initial draft. Please view the draft policy here, and comment in the Google doc or via the mailing list: https://docs.google.com/a/openstack.org/document/d/1sGBtza-mjRXcDzFBSS9aUrY… The main questions remaining for me are the mechanics of opening the Board mailing list and document store for confidential info (reference 2.1e in the draft), and Mark McLoughlin and Monty Taylor/CI team have been working on those pieces. Please comment by July 19, so we can incorporate feedback before the next board meeting scheduled August 6. Once finalized, the Transparency Policy will be published on the OpenStack Governance wiki. Thanks, Lauren

[OpenStack Foundation] Spider / What is Core Discussion opportunity: SJC or SFO 8/27 evening
by Rob_Hirschfeld＠Dell.com 27 Aug '13

27 Aug '13

All, I'm going to be in the Bay Area and available in the evening on 8/27. Is anyone interested in having a face-to-face meeting about core that night? I've got a meeting downtown in San Fran until 5, so I'm happy to meet there or take the train south for a 6:30 meeting. If there's interest, will someone local take a lead in getting a location? I think it's reasonable to setup a hangout for remote people too.

[OpenStack Foundation] Foundation Board of Directors Meeting
by Jonathan Bryce 08 Aug '13

08 Aug '13

The OpenStack Foundation Board of Directors held a telephone meeting on Tuesday August 6th at 9am PDT for about 2 hours. The Board spent a significant amount of time in the meeting discussing IP and patent strategies. Keith Bergelt from the Open Invention Network provided the Board members with an update on some of the work OIN has been doing to add additional packages to their expanded definitions, including some common OpenStack packages. Van Lindberg from the Legal Affairs Committee discussed a number of areas and approaches for cooperation among OpenStack member organizations concerning patents and IP. Following these discussions there was a series of updates from different working groups and committees. I presented an update on plans for promoting training and certification as a follow on to the initial discussion in the June Board meeting. The Board voted to approve the proposals, and the Foundation staff and training working group will move forward to begin implementing programs to encourage training programs around the world. Tim Bell discussed some emerging plans the User Committee is making to expand the number of people who are working to gather and share feedback from OpenStack users. Tom Fifield, who is now a community manager with the Foundation will be assisting the existing committee members to help coordinate their activities. If you are an OpenStack user and you would like to be involved, please reach out to Tim Bell. At the end of the meeting, there were several additional quick updates. Rob Hirschfeld presented an update on the ongoing discussions to define a framework to evaluate and define with projects would be part of OpenStack "core" over the long term. Todd Moore gave the Board notification that at the next Board meeting he expected to have some proposals around future election processes. Simon Anderson updated the Board on the state of the Gold Member Application Committee. Finally Alan Clark updated the Board on a recent Compensation Committee meeting. As the next OpenStack Summit will now be in November instead of October, the Board scheduled another phone meeting for October 3rd at 9am Pacific time, followed by an in-person Board meeting in Hong Kong at the Summit.
