Initial setup of OpenStack's Community Metrics Dashboard with Bitergia
by Georg Link 31 Oct '22

31 Oct '22

Hi everyone, As part of the OpenInfra + Bitergia partnership, we are going to set up an OpenInfra Community Metrics Dashboard on the Bitergia Analytics Platform for the OpenStack community. I’m reaching out to discuss how to configure the dashboard, specifically: *What project structure do we want on the dashboard?* We can combine data sources in a project structure to allow filtering data in the dashboard for each project. To be specific, we need a list of repositories and mailing lists and how they should be grouped in “projects”. With OpenStack’s community size and scope, there are different ways we can set this up and we’d like to discuss with you what a good starting configuration is. We could maybe use the info from the governance repo in defining projects: https://github.com/openstack/governance/blob/master/reference/projects.yaml… A caveat with this approach: My understanding is that the projects.yaml file matches teams to repositories but does not include special interest groups. Would we be missing something? Another approach could be to have a more general overview of the software projects on the OpenStack Map: https://www.openstack.org/software/ If it would help, we could set up an open meeting in which we discuss the pros and cons of different setup options.

October PTG Update
by Kendall Nelson 05 Aug '22

05 Aug '22

Hello Everyone, I wanted to provide an update on the October Project Teams Gathering (PTG). After discussing with community members and prospective sponsors, we have made the decision to pivot the event to 100% virtual to be as inclusive as possible. I know that this is not the ideal outcome and there are a lot of factors contributing to this decision, but we think it’s the best decision for the global community at this time. We are continuing to receive feedback on the value and importance of in-person PTGs; we just need to wait for other factors to be less of an obstacle If you have already registered, you should have been contacted for a full refund. We are going to use the same week for a virtual PTG and it will be free to attend, just like the previous ones. The registration is already live [1]. If you have any questions or feedback on this decision, please let us know. We will continue to monitor feedback as we make plans for a 2023 PTG. Thank you, Kendall (diablo_rojo) [1] https://openinfra-ptg.eventbrite.com

03 Aug '22

The Open Infrastructure Foundation Board of Directors met earlier this week. The agenda[1] was posted ahead of time. The meeting opened with approval of the June meetings minutes and a policy reminder. Next the Staff presented an update[2] on a number of topics including the recent Summit in Berlin, plans for the upcoming in-person PTG in October and a 2023 Summit in Vancouver. In addition we will have a presence at a number of industry events across the year and would love to see any community members who are attending. We also discussed the current user surveys for OpenInfra projects that are underway and linked from the project[3] page of the OpenInfra website. If you are making use of any of the projects, please take a few minutes to complete the relevant survey. Next Ildiko covered an effort to create blueprints for community management activities. Finally the staff update concluded with an update on previously discussed activities included directed funds for projects and the establishment of additional global entities. Following the staff update, Julia and Ghanshyam gave an update on scheduling meetings between interested board members and various projects. Thanks to everyone who joined and participated, Jonathan 1. https://board.openinfra.dev/meetings/2022-08-02 2. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/105-6m5uSIsXTyw93cfozX7RemSPd5KWHsGn… 3. https://openinfra.dev/projects/
