From jonathan at openstack.org Thu Jan 7 23:49:42 2021 From: jonathan at openstack.org (Jonathan Bryce) Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2021 17:49:42 -0600 Subject: [OpenStack Foundation] 2021 Board elections and Bylaws amendments Message-ID: Hi everyone, Next Monday, January 11, the 2021 Individual Director elections will open. All members who are eligible to vote should receive an email ballot next week. You can review the candidates here: https://www.openstack.org/election/2021-individual-director-election/CandidateList This year, the election will also include a set of amendments to the Foundation’s Bylaws. The amendments were approved unanimously by the Foundation Board in 2020. As a member class, the Individual Members must also approve these amendments. The Bylaws amendments fall into 3 primary categories: 1) Change certain aspects of corporate membership to allow more than eight Platinum Members and more than 24 Gold Members, as well as allowing the Board of Directors to create non-voting corporate memberships. Currently we expect to have nine Platinum Members for 2021. 2) Adjust the size of the Board of Directors so that it will continue to have an equal number of directors representing the Individual, Platinum and Gold Member classes as the number of Platinum Members may increase or decrease over time. If the amendments are approved, this would mean that each class would have nine Board seats for 2021 rather than eight currently. 3) A few cleanup items such as making references to “Technical Committee” more clear by specifying that certain provisions are dealing with the OpenStack project Technical Committee and proving the OpenStack Technical Committee a vote on future changes to those elements. I have attached a full redline of the amendments that will be up for consideration by the Individual members. Let me know if anyone has any questions, Jonathan -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

During the past decade, I have been Instilling the whole concept of open infrastructures with the highest government and corporate levels in Europe, including Telcos, Banks, Research institutes, federation (Such as GAIA-X), and large corporations, I learned while companies have a generally positive outlook when it comes to opensource infrastructures, training, interoperability and especially stability is always a major concern. It's my belief that there is a certain vertical that is missing on many large scale opensource projects, and that is the ability to work with and stay interoperable with enterprise/carrier-grade company requirements. this does not mean that any of our core values in terms of openness should change but in fact, embraced! I also learned that there is always a certain resistance to run open infrastructures on missing-critical systems, this is a matter of training, support, and reliability they don't expect to receive from the ecosystem, and not everyone is as brave as CERN. The following are what I think the focus should be on, and I can certainly help with regardless of election outcome: - Making open infrastructure more appealing to large scale companies, through doubling down on stability and interoperability, LTS, etc. - Establishing a better relationship with large consulting companies (specially big4) in order to create a better understanding of Open Infrastructure. - Focus on large-scale/carrier-grade infrastructures, better training, making a reliable open infrastructure a reality. - Focus on Migrations, there should be projects dedicated to migration from proprietary infrastructure to and from OpenStack, there are third-party tools but I think it's important to have one under the project itself. Thank you all, and best wishes for the new year. :) --- Armin ranjbar -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We should not assume that they will necessarily say no. After talking to Lyz, that community has decided to relocate their discussions to the #opensourceinfra channel, so has granted control of #openinfra to us as of 2020-12-22 (and I officially added it to our channel access management bot last week). Conversations there aren't logged yet, and it would be nice of us to leave that channel itself unused and their forwarding address in the topic for a while still, but we should be able to proceed with making use of the namespace for renaming/recombining our existing foundation-specific channels to #openinfra-whatever as time permits. -- Jeremy Stanley -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Yes I agree that we should reduce fragmentation, as using too many channels can result in ghost towns and unaddressed questions. As long as the audiences are the same and/or the conversations are not happening at the same time, we should reuse channels. For example, we could totally use a single #openinfra-events channel to regroup -ptg -forum and -summit discussions. -- Thierry From kennelson11 at gmail.com Tue Jan 26 20:45:24 2021 From: kennelson11 at gmail.com (Kendall Nelson) Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2021 12:45:24 -0800 Subject: [OpenStack Foundation] [all] IRC Channel Renames In-Reply-To: <2DE17246-AF34-4820-B130-558C70177C76@openstack.org> References: <20201215170158.qjqiidilqzwv2c5f@yuggoth.org> <20201215183225.htu2rsegi5s4mtf6@yuggoth.org> <2DE17246-AF34-4820-B130-558C70177C76@openstack.org> Message-ID: Hello Everyone!

Quick update: It sounds like we have managed to negotiate control of the #openinfra group on freenode and can begin the migration! (Correct me if I'm wrong, fungi :) ). So! This is the plan: - #openstack-ptg -> #openinfra-ptg - #openstack-forum -> #openinfra-forum - #openstack-diversity -> #openinfra-diversity - #openstack-board -> #openinfra-board (this one has already begun) - #openstack-foundation -> #openinfra - #openinfra-summit -> #openinfra-summit If there are any others you have seen that could also require updating, please let us know! I will be coordinating with fungi to do the migrations this week and will work on updating any documentation after the migrations take place. -Kendall (diablo_rojo) On Tue, Dec 15, 2020 at 11:21 AM Wes Wilson > wrote: One logistical item to point out. We have been advised to minimize our use of "OIF" to reduce confusion with another organization that has a trademark on "OIF". While we won't be able to prevent everyone from using the acronym to reference the foundation, much like OSF was used, we have been advised to not use it in "attention getting" places. We have started to replace the acronym with "OpenInfra Foundation" and "OpenInfra" depending on the use case. Another option to consider that we're using for twitter handle, url, and similar spots is "OpenInfraDev".
