Havana-1 development milestone available <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2013-May/000107.html> The first milestone of the Havana development cycle, "havana-1? is now available for Keystone, Glance, Nova, Horizon, Networking, Cinder, Ceilometer, and Heat. It contains all the new features that have been added since the Grizzly pre-release Feature Freeze in March. Including the oslo libraries, 63 blueprints were implemented and 671 bugs were fixed during this milestone. The next development milestone, havana-2, is scheduled for July 18th. Further details by Julien Danjou for Ceilometer <http://julien.danjou.info/blog/2013/openstack-ceilometer-havana-1-milestone…> The challenge of the network <http://lorinhochstein.wordpress.com/2013/05/29/the-challenge-of-the-network/> Lorin Hochstein <http://lorinhochstein.wordpress.com/> shared a very detailed story about debugging the network in OpenStack-powered instances. The story starts with a familiar message: I can't connect to the instance. Hopefully his story will be shared by generations of new OpenStack users and become legend. Travel less, save more: introducing the OpenStack volume affinity filter <http://www.mirantis.com/blog/travel-less-save-more-introducing-openstack-vo…> It is a common desire to have some storage space associated with an instance running on cloud. It is also a common desire to have access to it be as fast as possible. OpenStack doesn't provide a way to fine-tune this particular option out of the box. Mirantis engineer Alexey Ovchinnikov <http://www.mirantis.com/author/alexey-ovchinnikov/> discusses how Mirantis implemented just such an extension, what roadblocks have already been encountered, and what problems one may encounter when using it. OpenStack leaders learning by humility, doing and being good partners <http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/05/28/openstack-leaders-learning-by-humility-…> Director Rob Hirschfeld <http://robhirschfeld.com/> shares his thoughts about OpenStack leadership, open source collaboration and community. What are your thoughts on the matter? Notes from Board Meeting -- May 30th <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/foundation/2013-May/001428.html> The OpenStack Foundation Board of Directors had a telephone meeting on May 30^th at 9:00am PDT/1600 UTC. The meeting lasted just about 2 hours, but the Board ran through quite a few updates and short discussions on a number of topics. The board approved and published the minutes for previous meeting on the <https://the/>wiki <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/Foundation/14Apr2013BoardMinutes>. Executive director Jonathan Bryce has published a brief recap of May 3oth meeting.

The OpenStack Summit is coming to Hong Kong <http://www.openstack.org/summit/openstack-summit-hong-kong-2013/> It's official: we're going to Hong Kong on Nov 5-8. The Summit will take place at Asia World Expo, a large convention center near the airport with a connecting Marriott hotel. The Airport Express train stops within Asia World Expo, making it convenient to access from most parts of the city. Please check the VISA information page <http://www.openstack.org/summit/openstack-summit-hong-kong-2013/visa-inform…> and FAQ <http://www.openstack.org/summit/openstack-summit-hong-kong-2013/conference-…> for more information about your travel plans. We encourage you to book early! Connecting the dots: Dell stays course on OpenStack private <http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/05/23/dell-stays-course-on-openstack-private-…> OpenStack Foundation board member Rob Hirschfeld <http://robhirschfeld.com/> summarizes the /increasing level of investment/ in OpenStack-powered private cloud solutions (Dell <http://jobs.dell/>is hiring! <http://jobs.dell.com/search/openstack/ASCategory/-1/ASPostedDate/-1/ASCount…>). Among the things highlighted, the recent announcements are about increasing investment where Dell is already successful <http://en.community.dell.com/dell-blogs/direct2dell/b/direct2dell/archive/2…> plus accelerating with new features (such as leadership in HyperV enablement <http://www.serverwatch.com/server-news/dell-sets-the-stage-for-hyper-vs-ret…>). An introductory tour of OpenStack Cloud Messaging as a Service <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/05/an-introductory-tour-of-openstack-clo…> The need for an OpenStack Messaging Service was recognized by the San Diego Grizzly Summit, and in an unconference track design meeting on the last day, a crowd of interested people met, talked out some requirements, and from that the OpenStack Message Bus <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Marconi> project was born. It was codenamed "Marconi", in honor of Guglielmo Marconi <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guglielmo_Marconi>, the inventor of wireless messaging. The Marconi team collaborates on Launchpad <https://launchpad.net/marconi>. Working with the OpenStack Code Review and CI system -- Chef Edition <http://www.joinfu.com/2013/05/working-with-the-openstack-code-review-and-ci…> For too long, the state of the OpenStack Chef world had been one of duplicative effort, endless forks of Chef cookbooks, and little integration with how many of the OpenStack projects choose to control source code and integration testing. Recently, however, the Chef + OpenStack community has been getting its proverbial act together. Folks from lots of companies have come together and pushed to align efforts to produce a set of well-documented, flexible, but focused Chef cookbooks that install and configure OpenStack services. StackForge now hosting a set of Chef cookbooks for OpenStack. Virtualizing legacy hardware in OpenStack <http://dachary.org/?p=1991> Loïc Dachary <http://dachary.org/> summarizes how the French non-profit organization April <http://april.org/> migrated the workload of a five years old hardware to OpenStack. Instead of migrating each of the fourteen vservers <http://linux-vserver.org/> on a Debian GNU/Linux lenny <http://www.debian.org/releases/lenny/> running a *2.6.26-2-vserver-686-bigmem* linux individually to an OpenStack instance, it was decided that the vserver host would be copied over to an OpenStack instance. Discussion lists available in non-English languages <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Community#Mailing_lists_in_local_languages> In order to support our growing international communities the OpenStack Infrastructure and the Community team worked to allow groups to create mailing lists in languages other than English. People interested in discussions in Italian <http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-it> and Vietnamese <http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-vi> can join the lists already. A request for a list to discuss in Spanish is pending <https://pending/>review <https://review.openstack.org/#/c/30495/> and other can be created if necessary following the instructions <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Community#Mailing_lists_in_local_languages>.

23 May '13

Please join us for an online presentation of Tripleo - OpenStack on OpenStack given by Robert Collins on May 23, 2012 at 0:00 UTC: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20130522T20&p1=1194 hosted by the Canadian OpenStack User Group: http://canstack.ca/ This presentation will take place virtually using bluejeans.com. You can connect to the meeting from the canstack webpage: http://canstack.ca/ Here is the link to the meeting: https://bluejeans.com/119008447 Bluejeans allows you to connect to the meeting several different ways including: browser, skype and telephone. You can watch Robert Collins' Tripleo presentation from the OpenStack Summit in Portland: http://www.openstack.org/summit/portland-2013/session-videos/presentation/o… We are looking forward to Robert's presentation on Tripleo. He probably will reiterate of some of the basic concepts from the summit, as well as sharing any new Tripleo developments with us. After the presentation we hope to have some time for questions. We are anticipating ~ 30 minutes of presentation and about 20 - 30 minutes of questions but given the nature of the venue we will probably be fairly lenient with time frames. Since bluejeans.com doesn't have a chat feature please join us on irc.freenode.net #canstack for chat during the presentation. Since this meeting is virtual, you are welcome regardless of where you happen to be located. You don't have to be Canadian or in Canada to attend. However the app only allows for 15 connections, so 14 plus Robert. If you can buddy up or attend with a friend, that would help us out. Any questions? You are welcome to email me or find me on #canstack, my nick is anteaya. You can also email the canstack organizer, Curtis Collicutt at curtis.collicutt(a)cybera.ca, Curtis' nick is serverascode.

[openstack-community] Does Tempest support test nova-network cases?
by 天才 23 May '13

23 May '13

Hi All, From the current, stable Grizzly or stable Folsom Tempest, I found only quantum network client is provided under /tempest/services, but no nova-network is provided. And also there's no corresponding test case for nova-network. So, I would like to confirm it. Is is true that only quantum network test is provided since Tempest is launched? Anybody can give an answer about it? Thanks a lot. -- Best Regards. Zhengyou Zhou

[openstack-community] Mailing lists in non-English languages
by Stefano Maffulli 21 May '13

21 May '13

Hello folks, I would like to test the idea of opening the list server lists.openstack.org to mailing lists in other languages than English. At the moment lists.openstack.org only supports English for the user interfaces, archives included. But mailman supports also different languages and our international community is growing, so I think it shouldn't be too hard to help discussions happen in other languages. Do you think it would be useful for your groups to have one place hosted by on the OpenStack infrastructure, where discussions can happen in your local language? /stef -- Ask and answer questions on https://ask.openstack.org

[openstack-community] OpenStack in Africa (specifically Nairobi)
by Adam Nelson 21 May '13

21 May '13

Hello, We're building a public OpenStack implementation in Nairobi and over time, the rest of the continent. Is anybody on the list interested in talking about OpenStack in the African context or in starting a virtual meetup about it? I'd like to get more feedback about it and meet more people who are interested in the logistics of launching a cloud platform here. I'm also excited to get people not on the continent in the group if they have an interest. Based on feedback, I'll try to set up some sort of Hangout or something along those lines. Just shoot me a line. Cheers, Adam ------- OpenStack in Africa: http://kili.io Thoughts: https://twitter.com/varud About Me: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson

OpenStack Compute (Nova) Roadmap for Havana <http://russellbryantnet.wordpress.com/2013/05/13/openstack-compute-nova-roa…> The Havana design summit was held mid-April. Since then the Nova team has been documenting the Havana roadmap and going full speed ahead on development of these features. The list of features that developers have committed to completing for the Havana release is tracked using blueprints on Launchpad <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/havana>. At the time of writing, there are 74 blueprints listed that cover a wide range of development efforts. Russell Bryant <http://russellbryantnet.wordpress.com/>, Nova Tech Lead, highlights some of them. Stacker Voices: Thierry Carrez, OpenStack Foundation <http://engineering.cloudscaling.com/stacker-voices-thierry-carrez-openstack…> Thierry Carrez handles release management for the OpenStack Foundation and is chair of the project's Technical Committee. Thierry was involved with the earliest incarnations of OpenStack while at Rackspace. Cloudscaling's team caught up with him at the OpenStack Summit in Portland to get Thierry's insights into the release cycle, governance and his wish list for the project.

[openstack-community] OpenStack User Group Ecuador
by Daniel Núñez 16 May '13

16 May '13

Hello everyone A strong and warm greetings from Quito-Ecuador. My name is Daniel Nuñez. I have several months researching and using OpenStack and I really want to continue because is a technology with great potential. Here in Ecuador is a little known, for this reason I want to create the OpenStack User Group Ecuador. Documentation for communities (here<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStackUserGroups/HowTo#Starting_a_new_Op…>) is information for meetups, hackathons, etc., more focused on the organization of events, but I'm not clear how a new OSUG becomes visible. How the OpenStack Foundation recognizes and registers these groups? Creating a new OSUG is subject to review and / or approval of OpenStack Foundation? How to get a mentor for my OSUG? (the reference mentor sends a page without information). I appreciate your help with some information.

[openstack-community] Community Post: Open Networking Foundation has launched the first Open-Source "OpenFlow Driver" Contest with $50K award
by Rick Bauer 16 May '13

16 May '13

Dear OpenStack Community: While we announced this via the press and to our 100+ members, we wanted to make certain that you heard the news about our Driver Contest. The award for the best driver is US $50,000 (not selling anything, just passing the word along to a great community; nothing to buy, no salesman will call). Like OpenStack, we wanted our environment (which strongly relates to cloud computing) to be FOSS. Please feel free to circulate this notice anywhere you like, especially to any development portals or communities in which you or your company participates. If you have any questions, or are considering a submission, please feel free to contact me. About ONF Launched in 2011 by Deutsche Telekom, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Verizon, and Yahoo!, the Open Networking Foundation (ONF) is a growing nonprofit organization with more than 90 members whose mission is to advance the commercialization and use of SDN and the OpenFlow protocol. ONF will accelerate the delivery and use of SDN and OpenFlow technologies and standards while fostering a vibrant market of products, services, applications, customers, and users. For further details visit the ONF website at: <http://www.opennetworking.org> http://www.opennetworking.org. Good luck! Rick Rick Bauer Technical Programs Manager Open Networking Foundation ---------------------------------------------------------- Press Releases Open Networking Foundation Launches Industry's First Open-Source "OpenFlowT Driver" Contest Competition to Encourage Implementation, Interoperability of the OpenFlow Standard OPEN NETWORKING SUMMIT, Santa Clara, Calif., April 17, 2013 - The Open Networking Foundation (ONF), a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting Software-Defined Networking (SDN), today announced the industry's first competition to create an open-source "OpenFlowT Driver." The competition is open to the worldwide development community to create an interoperable open-source implementation of the latest OpenFlow standard. ONF intends the competition to produce an OpenFlow driver that everyone from network equipment vendors and ISVs to operators, and larger open-source projects can use for easy transitions between different implementations of the OpenFlow protocol. The winner of the "OpenFlow Driver" competition will be awarded one grand prize of $50,000. "ONF is committed to solving market needs in very practical ways," said Dan Pitt, executive director of the Open Networking Foundation. "This competition is designed to encourage additional SDN innovation by seeking additional open-sourced technology solutions. We want this OpenFlow Driver to be of use for global developers of OpenFlow products, making it easier for them to build value around and easily update the OpenFlow protocol component with the latest ONF specifications as they evolve." The competition is open to all organizations and individuals worldwide interested in developing an OpenFlow driver that any developer can use in a controller or switch to maintain compatibility among switches and controllers. The contest will open for submissions on April 16, 2013 at 12:00 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time, and will close on August 15, 2013 at 11:59 p.m. PDT. Judges, who will be selected by the Foundation, will critique on the following: * Compliance with the OpenFlow specification standard * Correctness of operation with test harness * Ease with which the submission can be integrated into a controller * Completeness of the implementation * Clarity of the code and architecture * Memory footprint * Potential performance and scaling of the architecture * Portability of the code * Modularity of the code * Extensibility and maintainability of the code * Integration with multiple programming languages * Performance and scalability of the code The winner will be announced on September 30, 2013. The winning entry will be provided under both Apache 2.0 and GPL dual-licenses for maximum compatibility with both open-source projects and commercial ones. For more information about the open-source "OpenFlow Driver" competition and submission guidelines, please visit www.opennetworking.org/competition <http://www.opennetworking.org/competition> . Competition terms and rules can be found at: www.opennetworking.org/images/stories/downloads/misc/openflow-driver-competi tion-terms-conditions.pdf <http://www.opennetworking.org/images/stories/downloads/misc/openflow-driver -competition-terms-conditions.pdf> .

[openstack-community] Anyone interested in a meet-up in Lyon/Grenoble?
by Dave Neary 16 May '13

16 May '13

Hi all, I know there are several Stackers around Geneva, Lyon and Grenoble - and I would love to see us kick off a local meet-upsometime in the next couple of months. Who would be interested in joining me and figuring out the details? I don't want to do anything overly complicated - perhaps piggy-backing on a local LUG/DevOps/Python meet-up would be sufficient - but I think it'd be great to have a meet-up to spread the OpenStack word in the region. Let me know, we'll kick it off and make it happen! Thanks!

Is there any process for coming up with the shortlist? Public brainstorming generally sucks for this kind of thing, but polls are also not great. In my experience, nothing works better than a smallish group of creative people working together with brand lawyers to come up with themes, and from those themes generating options, then working through the options for feasibility (web & trademark search). That said, Octopus is great. Cheers, Dave. PS. Some networking themes that come to mind: * Gatekeeper - keeping things segragated * Connecting things * Nodes & edges - graph topologies * Friendship/affinity * Traffic control - routing -- Dave Neary - Community Action and Impact Open Source and Standards, Red Hat - http://community.redhat.com Ph: +33 9 50 71 55 62 / Cell: +33 6 77 01 92 13

And the foundation will try to vet and filter the list before the vote to reduce the likelihood of a repeat of the Quantum situation. You can use me as the point of contact for that and I'll work with our trademark legal team.

[openstack-community] [Ask] Guidelines for answering question on Ask
by Stefano Maffulli 11 May '13

11 May '13

Hello folks, now that the traffic on https://ask.openstack.org has increased, I think it's time we start collecting guidelines for the moderators so we keep having a very informative tool, with consistently good questions and answers. I think it helps for example to pay attention to the titles of the questions and make them as explicit and clear as possible. The titles need to look like questions. Good examples are: * Where can I find instructions on how to setup OpenStack Grizzly on VMware Workstation? * How to set up metadata service on a flat network? * Why do I get "No portal found" error while attaching cinder volume to VM? I have started collecting best practices from Ask Ubuntu, Mozilla and Stackoverflow to be published on this page: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Community/AskModerators Do you have other examples, guidelines that we can imitate? thanks stef -- Ask and answer questions on https://ask.openstack.org

Introducing Murano: Bringing Windows Environments to OpenStack <http://www.mirantis.com/blog/introducing-murano-bringing-windows-environmen…> In response to growing demand for deploying and running Windows based applications on OpenStack cloud, the team at Mirantis started Murano <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Murano>: a native OpenStack component that enables fast provisioning and operation of Windows Environments on demand. Who Wrote OpenStack Grizzly Docs? <http://justwriteclick.com/2013/04/26/who-wrote-openstack-grizzly-docs/> Sneaking a peek at the numbers for documentation along with the code should show us pointers about docs keeping up with code. Anne Gentle <http://justwriteclick.com/> dives into the documentation with data and insights. “I” release cycle naming <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Release_Naming#.22I.22_release_cycle_naming> The next OpenStack summit will happen in Hong Kong. That creates a pretty challenging naming problem, since there is no word starting with “i’ in classic transliteration of Chinese words. So the Technical Committee is willing to bend the rules /a little/ to extend the range of candidates… Feel free to add suggestions to the list on the wiki. Stacker Voices: Monty Taylor, HP <http://engineering.cloudscaling.com/stacker-voices-monty-taylor-hp/> Cloudscaling Engineering <http://engineering.cloudscaling.com/> talked with Monty Taylor of HP (reaching rockstar status also with a wired.com <http://www.wired.com/> profile <http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/04/new-hackers-taylor/> this week) at the OpenStack Summit in Portland. Monty leads the CI (continuous innovation) project for OpenStack. In that role, he and his group have built testing systems that have made it possible for the OpenStack project to scale from a few dozen contributors for the Bexar release to more than 700 developers now pushing hundreds of patches daily to OpenStack. Watch the video on YouTube <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqw4zxqPelc>. A little tracing hack <http://markmail.org/message/kjv4kry67732nawb> Timothy Daly at Yahoo! added metrics and tracing for OpenStack and released tomograph <https://github.com/timjr/tomograph>: a tool to see what and how OpenStack is doing behind the curtains. Contribute to OpenStack Activity Board <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/05/contribute-to-openstack-activity-boar…> We’ve released the complete documentation <http://activity.openstack.org/data/display/WIKIDS/Home> for OpenStack Insights <http://activity.openstack.org/data/>, with binaries and source code downloadable from Sourceforge <https://sourceforge.net/projects/wikidsopenstack> while the OpenStack Dash <http://activity.openstack.org/dash/> tools are the vanilla MetricsGrimoire <http://metricsgrimoire.github.io/> set hosted on github <https://github.com/MetricsGrimoire>. The code is free as in freedom so you’re welcome to play with it. How to run pylint with few false positives <http://cloudystuffhappens.blogspot.com/2013/04/how-to-run-pylint-with-few-f…> Testing your python code can get complex and with pylint, you /will /see false positives, meaning it will complain some lines as bugs that are actually correct. lintstack is designed to address this problem: *reduce false positives from pylint as much as possible without sacrificing accuracy*.
