by Jonathan Bryce 26 Jun '17

26 Jun '17

The OpenStack Foundation Board of Directors met last week on June 20. The agenda was posted online ahead of time on the wiki: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/Foundation/20June2017BoardMeeting <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/Foundation/20June2017BoardMeeting> The meeting opened with roll call and approval of the May meeting minutes ( https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/Foundation/7May2017BoardMinutes <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/Foundation/7May2017BoardMinutes> ). Next up, the Interop Working Group gave an update on the progress they have made, especially add-on and vertical. Details are linked from the agenda above, and I’d encourage you to look over them if you are interested in understanding how the Interop programs might be growing over the rest of the year. Finally, the Board heard applications from Ericsson to become a Platinum Member and Canonical to become a Gold Member. After discussion in executive session, the Board returned to open session and approved both corporate member applications unanimously. Congrats to both organizations! Jonathan

[OpenStack Foundation] Theming Operator Midcycle
by Melvin Hillsman 26 Jun '17

26 Jun '17

Hi everyone, We started some time ago discussing the possibility of theming the operator midcycle to increase interest and participation by region. An example would be for Mexico City we heard that HPC is important there locally and ideally we would either create a HPC track, use the main room of the venue for HPC talks, or some other way of highlighting the theme via content, promotions, etc. Currently we are proposing[0] a midcycle in APAC with Tokyo being the current front-runner and knowing that the foundation is going on an "Asia Tour" in July, we would like to ask that the foundation looks for or allows us time after the tour, to understand the needs of the APAC region in hopes of pulling out a workable theme for the midcycle.
