[openstack-community] animation of OpenStack logo
by Atwood, Mark 30 Nov '12

30 Nov '12

Hi! At the OpenStack summit in San Diego, I noticed some presentation Interstitials that had an animated OpenStack logo, that showed the layers of the stack falling from above and forming the logo. Is that animation available, or did some company just hack it together for there own slides? ..m -- Mark Atwood <mark.atwood(a)hp.com> Director - Open Source Evangelism for HP Cloud Services +1-206-473-7118

[openstack-community] OpenStack Community Weekly Newsletter (Nov 16-30)
by Stefano Maffulli 30 Nov '12

Highlights of the weeks OpenStack Outreach Program for Women Still Accepting Candidates <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2012/11/openstack-outreach-program-for-women-…> We are constantly moving and growing and very excited to invite newcomers to our community. To this end, the OpenStack Foundation has joined the GNOME Outreach Program for Women. The Women in OpenStack group has already found some mentors for the program and ideas for projects are flowing in. If you know women that may be interested in joining OpenStack please tell them to read our blog post <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2012/11/openstack-outreach-program-for-women-…> with more details. The deadline is approaching (Dec 3) and we still have place for candidates. OpenStack Nova, Glance, Keystone, Cinder, Quantum and Horizon 2012.2.1 released <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2012-November/00005…> The OpenStack Stable Branch Maintainers Team has been busy selectively back-porting bugfixes to the stable/folsom branch according to our "safe source of high-impact fixes" criteria documented on the wiki page StableBranch <http://wiki.openstack.org/StableBranch>. We're happy to announce the 2012.2.1 release, the first in the series of releases to make available the bugfixes from stable/folsom. A total of 139 bugs have been fixed in this release, which is a higher than the usual volume of fixes in a stable release. What to expect from Grizzly-1 milestone <http://fnords.wordpress.com/2012/11/23/what-to-expect-from-grizzly-1-milest…> The first milestone of the OpenStack Grizzly development cycle is just out <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2012-November/00005…>. What should you expect from it? What significant new features were added? With more than 399 bugfixes landing in this milestone, Grizzly-1 contains already lots of new features. Thierry's blog post adds details for what changed in each component. Developing OpenStack Dashboard using Fedora <http://www.matthias-runge.de/2012/11/20/developing-openstack-dashboard-usin…> Many developers recommend using devstack <http://devstack.org/> to work on OpenStack. Matthias Runge <http://www.matthias-runge.de/> doesn't recommend that for Dashboard (Dan Berrange <http://berrange.com/> has an article providing more details <http://berrange.com/posts/2012/11/20/what-devstack-does-to-your-host-when-s…>). Good news is, at least for OpenStack's dashboard, devstack is not required in any case, it just runs on plain Fedora. Matthias swears that the instructions provided for Fedora's test day <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2012-09-18_OpenStack> worked great, no rocket science and no engineering master required. What DevStack does to your host when setting up OpenStack on Fedora 17 <http://berrange.com/posts/2012/11/20/what-devstack-does-to-your-host-when-s…> DevStack is one of those huge, massive scripts that requires super user access to your machine. Understanding what it does to your setup is pretty complex. Daniel P. Berrangé <http://berrange.com/> did most of the work for us investigating just what DevStack does to a Fedora 17 host when it is run. Fascinating read. The Future of Incubation and Core <http://blogs.gnome.org/markmc/2012/11/17/the-future-of-incubation-and-core/> Mark McLoughlin summarizes quite well the ongoing discussion to define the future of Incubation nd Core. The OpenStack Technical Committee <http://www.openstack.org/foundation/technical-committee/> and the OpenStack Foundation Board of Directors <http://www.openstack.org/foundation/board-of-directors/> have pretty separate sets of responsibilities and can get on with their work independently. One exception to that is the inclusion of new projects in OpenStack. In the coming weeks, members of the two bodies will decide how to clarify confusion around the term "core project" and what exactly happens projects who graduate through OpenStack's Incubation process. A thread on the openstack-dev mailing list <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2012-November/thread.htm…> is ongoing and is a great example of how a mailing list discussion can actually help to drive a rough consensus while still giving everyone an opportunity to express their views.// Driving a 100 Gigabit Network with OpenStack <http://buriedlede.blogspot.com/2012/11/driving-100-gigabit-network-with.html> Argonne National Laboratory is interested in building IaaS cloud systems that perform similarly to traditional HPC cluster-style systems for one of their projects. Narayan Desai <https://plus.google.com/111442327943164013992> reports on the work to validate the ability of an Openstack system to drive large quantities of network bandwidth, memory to memory. *Go to Australia in January for an OpenStack day at LCA2013 <http://bit.ly/Waue30>* Being held in January in Canberra, Australia, linux.conf.au is one of the foremost open source conferences in the world, and is considered the most prestigious in the southern hemisphere. Linux.conf.au's first ever OpenStack miniconf day is being held Jan 29, and we expect over 200 people will be attending the miniconf alone, with hundreds more attending the week long conference. More information is available at http://lca2013.linux.org.au/wiki/Miniconfs/OpenStack and the CFP is open <http://bit.ly/Waue30>.

[openstack-community] Broadening community blueprint involvement
by Sean Roberts 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi there, fellow community members! We are rapidly coming up on the first milestone delivery of grizzy. How can we, the community at large, support the development efforts? A few of us have been thinking about just that. Here are the major points that we have come up with and we want to discuss amongst the community at large. 1. A lot of information is coming out of the meetups and user group meetings. How do we gather and organize that stuff? 2. How do the summit sessions, blueprints, summit ideas/proposals, and videos flow and interconnect? 3. How can we increase the awareness and participation with blueprints? Points 1 and 2, will take some community discussion and tool development. We have ideas, lets discuss! Point 3, I think we can tackle now. I plan on taking the three lists below and linking them. If you fall under one of the lists below, I will be reaching out to you very soon and organizing the date and times that we can have blueprint meetings/meetups. * List of meetup and user group locations with their owners * List of accepted grizzy blueprints g2-3 with their owners * Available date and times for meetings/meetups -- sean

Hi Yoyo I've started looking into the processes and criteria used by Debian and OpenOffice.org for their own international conferences. I realised that OpenOffice.org content got lost (the server they used for the conferences doesn't exist anymore) and Debian's processes are in a lot of mailing list messages :( In any case I suggest that we start listing our own criteria and priorities that will help us make a decision. We can start now, I've drafted an etherpad. Please add your thoughts there: https://etherpad.openstack.org/InternationalSummitCriteria Once we get a decent list of criteria we can prioritize them and decide how to make it an official part of the candidatures. Cheers, stef PS I cc the international community group because I think this is a topic we should discuss widely with other communities too.

16 Nov '12

Highlights of the week OpenStack Outreach Program for Women Accepting Candidates <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2012/11/openstack-outreach-program-for-women-…> OpenStack provides open source software for building public and private clouds. We are constantly moving and growing and very excited to invite newcomers to our community. To this end, the OpenStack Foundation has joined the GNOME Outreach Program for Women <https://live.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen>. Join the list of mentors, contribute ideas <http://wiki.openstack.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/Ideas>, apply as intern. What's new in libvirt for the OpenStack Nova Folsom release <http://berrange.com/posts/2012/11/16/what-was-new-in-libvirt-for-the-openst…> Even if Folsom has been out for a while now, Daniel P. Berrangé <http://berrange.com/> provided a little more detail on some of the changes he was involved with making to the libvirt driver and what motivated them. Why to refactor the virt disk API in Nova <http://berrange.com/posts/2012/11/15/692/> When launching a virtual machine, Nova <http://openstack.org/> has the ability to inject various files into the disk image immediately prior to boot up. Nova runs as an unprivileged user, and the guest files to be changed are typically owned as root. This means all the file injection commands need to run via Nova's rootwrap utility to gain root privileges. It should come as little surprise that this has already resulted in a security vulnerability / CVE <https://lists.launchpad.net/openstack/msg14089.html> against Nova. The solution to this class of security problems is to decouple the file injection code from the host filesystem. Read more on Daniel's blog post <http://berrange.com/posts/2012/11/15/692/>. Swift 1.7.5 Released <http://swiftstack.com/blog/2012/11/14/swift-1.7.5-release/> Swift 1.7.5 has been released. This release is the work of twenty-seven contributors and includes several important new features and bug fixes. Making keystoneclient python library a little easier to work with <http://www.rhonabwy.com/wp/2012/11/11/making-keystoneclient-python-library-…> A quick guide to using the python keystoneclient library and some of its new features, with v2 API examples throughout.

Highlights of the week The future of Incubation and Core <http://markmail.org/message/hmc2cmf3wycrqhpe> Incubation is currently an OpenStack project status that grants a promising project more access to OpenStack shared resources, especially in the CI, release management and QA space. The level of maturity reached by OpenStack requires revising the concept of 'Core project' and the incubation process. Join the discussion and help the Technical Committee form an opinion for the Foundation's Board.

Brian Waldon summarizes the plans for Glance over the Grizzly release cycle.
