[openstack-community] [Ambassador] Continuing our discussion on-list
by Tom Fifield 28 Nov '13

28 Nov '13

Hi Ambassadors (and interested friends), It's time to continue our discussions of yore on the mailing list, as promised. Attached is Colin's brainstorming diagram, and below is the text mentioned that "Tom has". One of the first things we need to work out is how we're going to manage comms. Suggestions so far have been: * an ambassador@...openstack... alias that goes to every ambassador ** This could be implemented using a new mailing list, or perhaps by making a queue on the existing support ticket system * regional aliases (ambassador-{apac, eu, us}@...openstack...), that ambassadors in those regions can use in preference to their personal email address when listing on websites, and share the load between multiple ambassadors * ... Regards, Tom Problems: * The lack of a defined communications structure results in a lack of information coming from the communities – be it feedback from users, requests for assistance or content, promotion of local deployments and activities, adoption rates etc * User Group leaders are not supported to promote the aims of the foundation and OpenStack * Many User Groups are at low levels of maturity, which can result in a poor experience for attendees * There is only a small facility for community leaders to participate with their global counterparts Objectives: 1. Creation of structured communication between the Foundation, global OpenStack community and the members and associates of user groups worldwide, providing insight into regional activity while spreading key messages 2. Increased amount of contributors to activities related to localisation, such as translation 3. Increased quality of user groups 4. Increased accessibility of participation in governance activities 5. A gained understanding of user group funding needs, with increased ability to provision funds where most impact is seen 6. Increased adoption of OpenStack, and strengthening of the OpenStack brand

by Jolyon Brown 26 Nov '13

26 Nov '13

Hi Would anyone be interested in an OpenStack meet up type er.. thing somewhere in the North of England? There is the London group which meets now and again, but that's the other end of the country for me (North East based). I'm thinking Leeds as a centralish point on the map but open to suggestions. (As you may be able to tell I haven't given this much thought at all but was really just looking to gauge interest). Regards Jolyon Brown jolyon(a)limilo.com

[openstack-community] OpenStack Groups Portal -- Status Update
by Stefano Maffulli 25 Nov '13

25 Nov '13

Hello all, we've been working with Marton Kiss on a new portal for User Groups around the world. The scope of the portal is to improve discoverability of groups, leaders, speakers and to better highlight activities within the groups themselves. The portal was briefly demoed in Hong Kong and I think it's time to send a more comprehensive update of the status of the project. Marton is working on completing the Openstack theming, as there are still some minor theming bugs and he's working on the adaptive design. Other small details missing are the map in the home page and a simple group search field that helps visitors to find the nearby user groups. Before we release an alpha we also want to have a simple way for people to add content via git/gerrit, like the Organizer Tips (what now is on the wiki, UserGroupsHowTo). Before we to release alpha on groups.openstack.org, we need to prepare the infrastructure manifests to include git tag based deployment and module upgrade feature without database cleanup (currently the staging always produces a clean deployment to avoid content or module level errors caused by previous testing version). The final version of the User Groups Portal will need to use the OpenID provider being developed at the Foundation. That's a different project for which I'll send a status update later (short version: it's still not publicly available). As soon as we'll have an alpha version of the UG Portal we'll be able to start thinking about aggregating in it data coming from meetup.com and other sources. For example, Marton already found a module to integrate meetup.org (https://drupal.org/project/meetup_events) the author of that module is a member of the Openstack community, and he offered us a help to integrate this module into the community portal, and extend the module based on our requests. (community power seems to be working here :) Marton is also doing an amazing job reaching out to the Drupal community at large, to let them know about our effort and to show off the integration we've done with Gerrit/Jenkins for CI/CD. Pretty good example of why choosing open source tools for our infrastructure is a good thing. If you want to start getting familiar with the upcoming portal check out the development site http://groups-dev.openstack.org/ and the git repository http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-infra/groups. Marton is mrkiss on IRC, I'm reed if you have any questions. Cheers, stef -- Ask and answer questions on https://ask.openstack.org

[openstack-community] Openstackathon Beijing
by Sam Stoelinga 14 Nov '13

14 Nov '13

Hi All, We are holding a small event in Beijing and were hoping somebody is interested to join :) Any feedback greatly appreciated. *Openstackathon Beijing* Main target of the event: Having fun with other stackers hacking around and learning. How we do this? By making it a game where stackers compete with each other in bug solving The game is as follows: We will choose a bug for everybody in the hackaton to work on. Then everybody will try their best to solve the bug as soon as possible and as good as possible. After somebody fixes the bug, he has to scream that he fixed the bug. Then there will be 2 people reviewing if he fixed it correctly and if he did he will get a small price. We will keep on fixing bugs and maybe implementing small blueprints as long as people want to stay and enjoy it. People can also form small teams. About prices: In the beginning there will be some small snacks as price. Still looking for sponsor. Contact openstackathonbj(a)gmail.com to be a sponsor. How to register? Just sent an email with your name to openstackathonbj(a)gmail.com Maximum of 20 people for now Of course it's free Date: 24-11-2013 Place: 车库咖啡 Garage Cafe http://www.chekucafe.com/ 在中关村地址：海淀西大街48号图书城步行街内鑫鼎宾馆二层 Agenda: 12:00 - 12:30 Introduction and help with setup of devstack boxes 12:30 - 17:30 Bug fix PK 17:30 - 18:30 Food time (Looking for sponsor) 18:30 - 23:30 Stay as you like Organizers: Xiao Hanyu: http://github.com/xiaohanyu/ Sam Stoelinga: http://cn.linkedin.com/in/samstoelinga/ We are doing this for fun so don't expect too much!

Hello, My name is Ina Dobrilova and I am an Administrative and Marketing Associate at Telerik, an end-to-end provider of application development tools and solutions for building and analyzing cross-platform and mobile applications. As a leading software development provider, Telerik is very enthusiastic about setting up the first OpenStack user group in Bulgaria to nurture a vibrant local OpenStack community. We followed the guidelines on the OpenStack website for starting a user group, including subscribing to the community mailing list, and adding information and contact details on the OpenStack website<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStackUserGroups>. Next, we are planning to create a special website, entirely dedicated to the OpenStack UserGroup, and to start recruiting and building the OpenStack community in Bulgaria. Before the public announcement of the Bulgarian OpenStack Group, however, we wanted to verify with you whether or not any additional steps need to be taken. Also, we'd like to inquire about how we could be included in the first list on the website<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStackUsersGroup> and on the official map<http://www.openstack.org/community/> of OpenStack Groups worldwide. We are looking forward to your reply and would be happy to answer any questions you might have.
