[openstack-community] Group doing something special? Talk to your ambassador ...
by Tom Fifield 01 Jun '16

01 Jun '16

Hi all, It was great to see a passionate discussion around the birthday parties over the past few weeks. It seems that many people cherish the celebration, but don't necessarily need the funds for that specifically. This is a quick follow-up to talk about the funding program available via your Ambassadors ( https://groups.openstack.org/ambassador-program ). At the Foundation, we care about making your user group the best it can be. Part of making a user group sustainable, though it is sometimes a struggle, is making sure you have a roster of local sponsors to deal with the regular meetups. However, sometimes you've got a great idea and want to do something "special", potentially beyond what your regular supporters can fund. Maybe you're running upstream training and need to buy Lego? Or perhaps you need help to get a superstar speaker to your meetup? What about entering an OpenStack booth in a local conference? If you're doing interesting things that need special funding, please contact your ambassador and start a discussion ( https://groups.openstack.org/ambassador-program ) - we'd love to see what you come up with and how we can support it. Regards, Tom

[openstack-community] OpenStack instances can't access LAN or internet when using LXD
by Muneeb Ahmad 30 May '16

30 May '16

Hi, I have installed OpenStack Mitaka (all in one) in ubuntu 16.04. I'm using LXD as a hypervisor using nova-lxd. Everything is working fine, I can login to dashboard, launch instances successfully. I assigned floating IPs to them too and 'nova list' shows they are assigned to the instances. 'lxc list' shows only private ip assigned. The problem is I can't access internet or even the LAN while inside that instance. Any help? Thanks

[openstack-community] OpenStack Workshop in Lyon, France - June 15, 2016
by Adrien Cunin 25 May '16

25 May '16

Hi, The OpenStackFr user group is organizing a full day of OpenStack workshops next month. This will happen on June 15 at the ENS school in the great city of Lyon. Three parallel tracks will allow attendees to get a hands-on experience appropriate to their interests and skills: from OpenStack 101 to advanced deployment and Upstream Training. This event is made possible by our multiple sponsors: * ENS Lyon * Objectif Libre * Osones * OVH * PaaSage * Red Hat Registration is required, and attendees must bring their laptop. Details and registration is at https://www.eventbrite.fr/e/billets-openstack-workshop-lyon-2016-25669207290 [ As you can see on the registration page and as you can expect, spoken language during the event is likely to be mostly French, but speaking French is /not/ a requirement to attend. :-) ] Hope to see some of you there! Adrien

Nova has a pluggable layer for adding hypervisors, and its certainly possible to do that thing. That said, Nova is pretty hesitant these days to add new hypervisor drivers, as its a lot of maintenance work for the team, especially if the original authors of a driver wander off. A first port of call is probably to work out if you could get support added to libvirt, and then what exposing that in the libvirt driver for Nova would look like.

[openstack-community] OpenStack Birthday Feedback
by Kendall Waters 24 May '16

24 May '16

Hi everyone, For the past few years, the Foundation has contributed funding & graphics for "birthday parties" organized by official user groups around the world. It's something we have celebrated each year in July, and in 2015 we hit a pretty big milestone with the 5th birthday. We typically create and distribute graphics and a presentation, help promote the events and give qualifying groups $500 USD to supplement costs for food / space / etc. Since we passed the 5-year milestone, we wanted to start a discussion with user group leaders and the community to see how much value you find in the birthday parties. Are they an important tradition for your local community members, or should we redirect funding and efforts to other user group activities, such as sponsoring speaker travel? We would love your feedback - are the OpenStack birthdays something that you would like the Foundation to continue supporting? Cheers, Kendall PS - User group leaders should also have received communication from your local Ambassador directly about the availability of funding for special activities. If you haven't seen that yet, contact your Ambassador: https://groups.openstack.org/ambassador-program <https://groups.openstack.org/ambassador-program>

[openstack-community] Proposal: remove voting on speaking proposals for Barcelona Summit
by Claire Massey 20 May '16

20 May '16

Hi everyone, For the past few Summits, we've received mixed feedback about having the community vote on proposed sessions as part of the call for speakers process. Historically, after the call for speakers closes, we publish all submitted sessions for community voting before the track chairs review them. The track chairs then choose how much weight to put on the voting resuls, if any, because they make the ultimate decision about which sessions are selected. More info on Track Chairs can be found at the bottom of this email. With the growing number of speaking submissions (we had 1,300 for Austin), some community members have expressed concerns about social media channels and email getting spammed during the week of voting. We also think many community members are unclear as to how much the votes weigh on the final decision. For example, some think that if someone campaigns for votes or asks their colleagues to vote, the session will likely be accepted (which may not be the case). We would like to propose removing voting from the selection process for the October 2016 Barcelona Summit, but want to get your input before making a final decision. Our thinking is that by removing voting from the process, we will: - Save valuable time during the overall Summit programming process, which should allow us to publish the final agenda and notify speakers sooner - Allow our development teams more time to focus on improving the mobile app and web schedule developed during the last Summit cycle - Reduce the spam and noise around voting, so we don't cause Twitter fatigue before we're promoting the final agenda and key themes - Level the playing field for speakers from startups, new community members, etc. who may not have an established network in the community for voting We initially started the voting process for good reasons and we do think there's value, but we're reaching a point where the costs are starting to outweigh the benefits. We'd like to get your input before we open the call for speakers in early June for the Barcelona Summit. Thanks, Claire Track Chair Info Track Chairs are subject matter experts who review submissions to their particular track, for example "storage" or "cloud applications." There are typically 3-4 chairs per track who review and collaboratively decide which presentations are ultimately accepted for inclusion on the final agenda. The Foundation strives to recruit Track Chairs from a diverse set of companies, regions, roles in the community (i.e., contributing developers, users and business leaders) and areas of expertise. Information on how to nominate yourself or someone else to serve as a track chair for the Barcelona Summit will be published when the call for speakers goes live in early June. For reference, here's information on the Track Chairs from the Austin Summit: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Austin_Summit_Track_Chairs <https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Austin_Summit_Track_Chairs> and https://www.openstack.org/summit/austin-2016/categories/selection-process <https://www.openstack.org/summit/austin-2016/categories/selection-process>.

On the other hand, anyone in the world, whether they’re normally part of the community or not, can watch the videos.

[openstack-community] Proposal to Remove Community Voting from the OpenStack Summit Session Selection Process
by Gary Kevorkian (gkevorki) 18 May '16

18 May '16

As a community member and former track chair, I see pluses and minuses to this proposal. To be honest, I can't say I'd be in favor of completely removing the voting by community members. That being said, I do think the session selection process could use an overhaul. I made this suggestion once before but it didn't get much traction so I'll give it another shot... Instead of exposing the community to, using the ATX summit as an example, 1,300 talks for open voting, what if the track chairs did a first pass on sifting through the talks in their respective tracks to remove the wheat from the chaff, so to speak? Then, take that shortened list of talks to open voting. You could reduce the amount of time open for voting since there would be fewer sessions for community members to review. Right now the pre-voting review by the track chairs is just to move talks to other tracks if it's believed it belongs somewhere else. There's no dropping talks at that point. Just a suggestion. As a track chair, I did find the voting results somewhat helpful in making my final track choices. In the long run, my gut tells me that the community doesn't want the Summit agenda set by just a few people. They'll want to have a voice. But there may be a better way to achieve that result.

Hello everybody, Should it be possible to launch an instance with a network adapter in a network without any subnet in it? Actually I get an error (HTTP 400), but this would mean it is not possible to create a layer 2 network (type VLAN) without any subnet. KR, Lukas

[openstack-community] Announcing the Non-ATC Recognition Working Group
by Shamail Tahir 01 Apr '16

01 Apr '16

Hi everyone, We had some great discussion on the mailing lists on how to recognize operators and other contributors in the OpenStack community who don't qualify for ATC (Active Technical Contributor) status earlier this month[1]. We revisited this topic at the last User Committee meeting[2] and decided to start a short-term working group with one objective: to help define the User Committee constituency. This will help us determine who should be included in the {not yet named} contributor program by the User Committee and how to qualify. Maish and I volunteered to help start the conversations, document the decisions, and provide updates on the outcome to the User Committee. We have created a wiki[3] for this new working group (which will be disbanded once we have reached our objective) and there is an active doodle poll[4] to determine the time for our weekly meeting, which will be held in an IRC channel. The poll shows the start dates as this week but the please just vote for the day/time (not date) since we will not begin our meeting until next week (week of 4/4). Please volunteer if you want to help us develop the membership definition for this new designation. The user committee will have a lot more work ahead of them to fully build out a new charter and/or program but this activity will be extremely helpful as a foundational building block.

Hi, Working on single node architecture OpenStack kilo. Install Zaqar for multi-tenant messaging as a service and install MongoDB for local database server. To check multi-tenant messaging service in openstack, I create 3 different projects and assigned 3 different users. When I am creating a queue for "Project A" with its token id and project id,the other "tenants B,C" are getting the tenant A queue information. If tenant A is creating the queue and sending the messages means only tenant A should see its own queues and messages but others tenants should not see the tenant A information. What are the privacy rules so that the tenants should not see the other tenants queues information. Did anyone got the same issue? Kindly help me on this issue.

[openstack-community] I need some help getting my user group listed on the OpenStack.org website
by Donnie Hamlett 17 Mar '16

17 Mar '16

Hello OpenStack Community, My apologies if I am sending this to the wrong alias but I really need some help with promoting my User Group via the OpenStack.org website 1. I was told by our OpenStack Ambassador Kenneth Hui that the OpenStack Central Florida User Group was an official User Group back in September of 2015. Our Meetup group is now 122 Members strong and growing, but we are not on the OpenStack.org website. This is really starting to become an issue because I already had one vendor I was trying to get to speak to the group question if we are an Official User Group. Can you please point me to someone who can get my group listed on the website? 2. Our next meeting is Wednesday March 30th, and a Solutions Architect from Chef is coming into to deliver a overview of Chef and how it can be used as a tool to provision applications and infrastructure to an OpenStack Cloud. Can someone please point me to a where and how I can get my meeting listed on the OpenStack.org website. http://www.meetup.com/Orlando-Central-Florida-OpenStack-Meetup/events/22961… Once again my apologies if this e-mail is inappropriate for the list, but I really need help to keep the momentum of my User Group.

[openstack-community] We are OpenStack, but who is We?
by Pierre Freund 11 Mar '16

11 Mar '16

Hello everyone, My name is Pierre and I'm a proud OpenStacker since 3 years now. I'm not a dev, I'm a pure ops. For 3 years, my job has been to make OpenStack works, and everybody knows that it's a fulltime job. I think my company do a lot for the OpenStack adoption in France. We are (a big) part of a french government project based on OpenStack. Today, production applications are running on OpenStack. It's the first private cloud in the french government. We also work for one of the biggest retailer in the world, in a huge project OpenStack-based project. We are about 10 Ops folks working on these projects. We also co-organise one meetup a month in Paris ( http://www.meetup.com/fr-FR/OpenStack-France/) welcoming 100 people each time. We spend a lot of time for the french OpenStack community, and we love it! "We are OpenStack", but you know what, I don't really feel to be part of this "We". And I think I'm not the only ops folks feeling this. Today, I'm booking flights for Austin. I'm happy to be able to attend every summit as I can afford flight tickets and hotel, with money earned from OpenStack jobs! But I have to admit that I'm very very (very) very angry at the OpenStack foundation when I have to pay from $600 to $1000 my Summit tickets. At the last summit, I went to the ambassador's session to speak about this. My point was that people spending time for the community should have an easier access to the summit by giving them "Active Community Contributors" Pass. The only answer I had was "If you can't afford the ticket, use the travel program". No. That's not a good solution, because we don't want to beg for something we deserve! It's not a money issue, everything is about recognition. Also, there is a selection for admission. What kind of metrics are used to say yes or no? I think there is an easy solution, using local ambassadors to measure the events and talk to events organizer. There is not so many people... Then, I went to the "feedback session" of the summit, and said that I was really involved in OpenStack, and I deserved an "Active Ops Contributor" badge. Everybody agreed. The ATC program is B.R.O.K.E.N. My only solution? Make a bullshit commit, correct something in the docs, correct a typo in a comment… not very interesting. Here is one of my $1200 single character commit: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/20076/ . And this makes me an "Active Contributor" for two summits?? I know that there is no metric to measure Ops work for OpenStack project. If we use surveys, lots of OpenStack in production environments will suddenly appear by magic. To be honest, I don't have a magic solution. I'm still thinking about it… If you have any idea, feel free. We are all OpenStack, not only Developers. There is something like Dev <-> Users in the logo, right? And what about people helping local user groups? -- Pierre FREUND Proud OpenStacker

[openstack-community] Recognising Ops contributions
by Edgar Magana 03 Mar '16

03 Mar '16

Dear Users and Operators, The Foundation User Committee [1] has received multiple requests to enable a formal recognition of your contributions to the OpenStack community. This email is our approach to formalize this recognition and make sure that we all feel and are part of the community. There are many ways that OpenStack users contribute to the community beyond standard patches. For a long time, Ops have been asking for something on their summit badge to recognise their efforts. An ATC-equivalent that we can rally around; and when you look down and see it on someone else, a common understanding that you're both in this together trying to make OpenStack a better place and a community for all of us. We want to make this a reality by gathering a list of criteria that we as a community feel that shows someone has demonstrated technical contributions, using their skills as Ops. Our current ideas are as follows: * Moderating a session at an Ops meetup * Filing a detailed bug, tagged 'ops', that gets fixed * Filling out the user survey (including a deployment) * Making contributions to ops-tags and/or OSOps repositories * Being an active moderator on Ask OpenStack * Actively participating in a user commitee working group * Contributing a post to Superuser magazine * Giving a presentation or track chairing for the Operations track at the conference * Hosting OpenStack Meetups Here's what we would like to happen: 1. We discuss and converge on these initial criteria and make a list of eligible members 2. If we can pull this off in time, we've arranged to get some kind of mention of the status on your conference badge in Austin 3. Assess how it goes for Austin and the six month period that follows, then iterate to success, including offering ATC-similar registration codes at the Barcelona summit We are really looking forward to receiving your feedback. Kind Regards, The OpenStack User Committee. FAQ Why not leverage ATC? This is an easier way to get started. There's obvious overlap in the principles here, but it just does not look possible to get any changes done to ATC quickly. Additionally, though Ops and devs are one community working together, and we will continue to encourage Ops to contribute code, documentation or translation contributions to the repos, there is also a need to allow Ops to recognise one another and work with those whom have similar jobs. I want a free summit pass now! Right now, we're just defining the concept and putting a recognition on the badge for Austin. There's a financial impact of offering free passes, so we need to do this carefully, look at how many people qualify, and tweak for Barcelona but our main goal is to fairly distribute as many passes as possible. This needs a catchy name. Yes, yes it does. Suggestions? How long does the status last? About six months. Why isn't the bar higher? This is designed as an *inclusive* label, rather than an *exclusive* one. We have to strike a balance between a reasonable demonstration of contribution, the ability to track that demonstration, and making sure that a reasonable effort to contribute falls into that. How will this be implemented? Basically, in your Foundation profile, we already collect some things - for example, whether you've given a presentation at the conference. The first step is to get these other demonstrations of contribution stored in that database. The second step is to generate a list of qualified folks so we can use that for the badge printing. The third step is to display some of this information on Stackalytics, which already consumes the Foundation profile to some extent.

There are consumers of clouds to factor into the discussion and i’d like to see something where a contributor to the foundation application catalog gets credit or an ISV in the marketplace.

Re: [openstack-community] [Openstack-operators] Recognising Ops contributions
by Pierre Freund 03 Mar '16

03 Mar '16

What about 3 different groups, with every combination possible. ACC / Active Community Contributor I contribute with non-technical tasks (tasks not producing code). Example : Meetups, Summits, Ask moderation, participating in a user commitee, etc. TOC / Technical Ops Contributor I contribute to the Ops part, with code or tasks with mesureable metrics. Example : Filing a detailed bug, tagged 'ops' that gets fixed, tasks measurable in launchpad for exemple. ADC / Active Development Contributor The actual ATC. And depending of what I do, I can have a ACC-TOC pass, or a ACC-ADC pass, every combination... And if I have one of these, I'm an AC (Active Contributor). This email is at the end of the etherpad. -- Pierre FREUND

[openstack-community] User Survey - Deadline Feb 24th
by Tom Fifield 09 Feb '16

09 Feb '16

Hi all, If you run OpenStack, build apps on it, or have customers with OpenStack deployments, please take a few minutes to respond to the latest User Survey or pass it along to your friends. Since 2013, the user survey has provided significant insight into what people are deploying and how they're using OpenStack. You can see the most recent results in the October 2015 report[1]. Please follow the link and instructions below to complete the User Survey by ***February 24, 2016 at 23:00 UTC***. If you already completed the survey, there's no need to start over. You can simply log back in to update your Deployment Profile, as well as take the opportunity to provide additional input. You need to do this to keep your past survey responses active, but we hope you'll do it because we've made the survey shorter and with more interesting questions ;) Take the Survey ( http://www.openstack.org/user-survey ) All of the information you provide is confidential to the Foundation and User Committee and will be aggregated anonymously unless you clearly indicate we can publish your organization’s profile. Remember you can hear directly from users and see the aggregate survey findings by attending the next OpenStack Summit, April 25-29 in Austin (http://www.openstack.org/summit) Thank you again for your support. -Tom PS, an RT of https://twitter.com/OpenStack/status/695751431542874112 helps too :) [1] https://www.openstack.org/user-survey/survey-2016-q1/landing?BackURL=%2Fuse…

[openstack-community] OpenStack Mentoring
by Mike Perez 03 Feb '16

03 Feb '16

Mentoring is an important tool for growing our OpenStack community. Mentors help new community members come on board and existing community members expand their skills and reputation. Mentees help their mentors expand their worldview and challenge their mindset. This process of gaining knowledge and challenging existing ideas is vital to our community. The OpenStack community currently has a few levels of mentoring: * Outreachy mentoring - an intense internship-type experience over a particular three month period https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Outreachy. * Upstream University - a two-day class for beginners in the community, held on-site the two days prior to the summit The Women of OpenStack group has seen the need for additional types of mentoring, specifically long term but lightweight mentoring aimed at bringing together mentors and mentees who may not be co-located. * Technical mentoring - mentorship is spread over several months. Mentors with experience in a particular area of OpenStack help their mentees grow in that area. This could be a focus area like release management or marketing, or a particular project like Nova or Neutron. * Career mentoring - mentorship is spread out over several months or years. Mentors help their mentees define what kind of career they'd like in the community and move towards those goals. Mentors and mentees may or may not have the same focus area in the community. We hope to kick off these new mentoring programs before the Austin summit, to tie in with a new Speed Mentoring session there. We are currently looking for mentors of all shapes, sizes and backgrounds to take part in the program pilot. Mentors should have between 1 and 4 hours a month free to spend with their menthe. Read our guidelines (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxtM4AiszlEyVkEtdktmWjBPN3c/view) and if you're ready to sign up, please fill out our questionnaire https://openstackfoundation.formstack.com/forms/mentoring! There is an optional speed mentoring session that will be on April 25th Monday morning at the OpenStack conference in Austin before the first keynote. In this event, mentees will be able to meet a variety of mentors in a short amount of time to see who they would like to pair up with. Please check the appropriate box on the questionnaire form if you’re interested in attending. -- Mike Perez -- Mike Perez

[openstack-community] a small PR proposal to each user group regarding OpenStack Days
by Jaesuk Ahn 01 Feb '16

01 Feb '16

Dear User Groups and Ambassadors, This is Jaesuk Ahn from Korea User Group. As some of you already know, OpenStack Korea User Group is having the first OpenStack Days event in 2016. (http://event.openstack.or.kr) I was planning to have 10min talk to address how important “User” is for OpenStack Community. Especially, since OpenStack Days becomes somewhat official event of OpenStack community, I would like to emphasize this is official festival of OpenStack. Then, while I am looking into 2016’s upcoming OpenStack Days event, I got one idea. For each OpenStack Days event, it will be fun to show “photo” of other user groups to hold a congratulation sign. For instance, each user group can send us a photo with holding the following comments. "Way to go OpenStack Days Korea” from china “Congratulation on your OpenStack Days Korea” from sydney .. .. Then, I will share these photos for our pre-event PR, and also at the beginning of the OpenStack Days Korea event. It is really similar to what we do for OpenStack birthday. :) We can do this for every OpenStack Days event during 2016. :) -- Jaesuk Ahn, Ph.D. Software Defined Infra Tech. Lab. SKT

[openstack-community] Upstream University: Signup for Mentors and Mentees
by Mike Perez 30 Jan '16

30 Jan '16

Hello all! I'm trying to gather how much interest there is do an Upstream University at the Austin summit as we've done at the summits since Paris. Here's an excerpt from the training guides about the program [1]: We've designed a training program to help professional developers negotiate this hurdle. It shows them how to ensure their bug fix or feature is accepted in the OpenStack project in a minimum amount of time. The educational program requires students to work on real-life bug fixes or new features during two days of real-life classes and online mentoring, until the work is accepted by OpenStack. The live two-day class teaches them to navigate the intricacies of the project's technical tools and social interactions. In a followup session, the students benefit from individual online sessions to help them resolve any remaining problems they might have. In order for this program to be successful, we need mentors and students/mentees. If you're available April 23-24 before the summit starts in Austin, TX and want to help others and mentor or just want to learn more on contributing to OpenStack, please sign up and check the box that indicates you're interested in the Upstream University. https://openstackfoundation.formstack.com/forms/mentoring Even if you're unable to participate, please consider spreading the word so this event can be a success!

[openstack-community] Support activity of Tunisian OpenStack Users Group
by soufiene 21 Jan '16

Dear all I'm Chraigui Soufiene, from TOSUG (Tunisian OpenStack Users Group). Because the number of users from our region is the less one, our first object is to boost it. For this reason we have participated on many local scientific and university's conferences related on the IT domain, such as: 1. http://forum-enetcom.tn 2. https://www.facebook.com/events/689978677805956/ 3. https://www.facebook.com/events/781040028685760/ We are planning to animate a workshop on the university of Sfax and university of Sousse on March, 2016. To have successful workshop, we need access to an OpenStack platform. I have some discussions with ambassadors and other users group presents in Tokyo's summit about resource problems in our group. We will be so grateful, if there are some members or company can help us. Sincerely Chraigui Soufiene Founder and Coordinator Tunisian OpenStack Users Group

Hi all, The Manchester OpenStack Meetup is hosting a meetup to coincide with the Ops Midcycle in Manchester on the second evening (Tuesday 16th Feb). It will take place in SpacePortX, which is a local coworking space in the Northern Quarter [1] in the city centre. Spaceport is a 30 min tram ride from The Landing (or 20 min cab), where the midcycle will be taking place. This month we're going to be taking a look at High Performance Computing and OpenStack, and have speakers from several of the large OpenStack HPC deployments in addition to Tom and Mike from the foundation. You can see the full schedule on the meetup page. [2] If you'd like to attend, please ensure you RSVP, as space is somewhat limited, and we need to know how much pizza and beer to buy! Kind Regards, Danny [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Quarter_(Manchester) [2] http://www.meetup.com/Manchester-OpenStack-Meetup/events/228225732/

[openstack-community] Speakers' Bureau
by Tim Bell 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

I was trying out the speakers' bureau. a really nice feature and good to see already there is lots of entries. I found the countries willing to visit list a bit difficult to manage as a false click could lead to resetting all previous selections. Would it be possible to do something like 'add' with a country selection box and 'delete' from the list of countries selected ? A general comment box would also be good for just giving some additional details if there are any other further items to mention regarding the speaker's availability. Tim

[openstack-community] Speakers Bureau
by Jimmy McArthur 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

Hi all - I've recently been hired to work with the Foundation to support the OpenStack web properties. Previously, I was a project lead at Tipit, and was supporting the Foundation in a similar capacity. I'm very familiar with the speaker submission process for the Summit, from start to finish, having worked directly with Todd Morey and the rest of the Foundation crew for the last few summits. I would love to leverage that work and the data we've already collected to help build a speakers bureau for the community. I'll summarize below some of the requirements I've gathered from reviewing all the outstanding requests. Below that, I'll add a few comments about the general development that has already begun. Information that we currently have in Speaker Profile - Date Joined - Country / City of origin - Funded travel - Registered for upcoming Summit - Past OpenStack Summit presentations / related material - Bio - Affiliations / Job history - Opt-In to Speakers Bureau Community Requests for additional information - Areas of expertise* - Prior speaking topics* - Links to previous presentations / event names* - Is the speaker willing to travel? To which regions / countries?* - In which languages is the speaker fluent?* - Professional references - Sponsorship opportunities (travel, food/drink) - Dates of availability / unavailability Contact form* - Name of organizer - Email of organizer - Event name - Format / length - Expected attendance - Date(s) of event - Location - Topic(s) - General Request Add option to Sort / Search - Name - Company - Region, country, city where the speaker lives/works - Areas of expertise As you can see from the first list, the Foundation already collects a fair amount of information when we do our Call for Speakers ahead of each summit. Earlier this month, we began work on the speaker's bureau, leveraging that information. I suggest we focus on getting a minimum viable product out as soon as possible, with the data that we've already collected. I've put an asterisk next to the items that are easy adds. We could aim to get as much of that into a Phase I as possible. There are some more complex pieces (Professional references, Dates of availability / unavailability) that have potential privacy concerns or could complicate things. Additionally, I think we should keep the form as short and simple as possible, so speakers fill it out. IMO we should be cautious about overreaching when asking for data and ensure it's easy for people to manage. My suggestion is to get some of these more simple items out the door so we at least have a searchable list. From there, we can solicit feedback and iterate. Please let me know your thoughts and I look forward to working with everyone! Cheers, Jimmy McArthur

[openstack-community] [Openstack] [NOVA] nova image-list error class 'glanceclient.exc.CommunicationError'> (HTTP 500)
by Rajiv Duggal 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Hi, I am a newbie to the this list. After a lot of attempts to get this working wanted to try out the mailing list for ideas. Please review this email in detail before suggesting to check password or other basic stuff. My conlusion this far is that my environment on liberty is running glance v2. Nova is making calls to v2 of nova api at port 8794. This returns a error for image-list. Not sure if it is calling v1 of glance or not. Glance v1 api is erroring out. Looking for some pointers to below. How do I add more debug to ensure nova is using glance api v2. I have seen some articles that state nova uses v1 api of glance, but not sure if that applies to liberty release. If yes then how do I get v1 glance api working on the box. See below for all the debug and issue details. Any help or response is greatly appreciated. nova image-list returns http 500 'glanceclient.exc.CommunicationError'. Glance image-list works. Openstack image list works. Nova service-list works. cinder list works. Glance v2 api works and is able to create images. Cinder is able to create volumes from the glance images. All configuration files are enabled to debug and verbose . Nothing showing in the cinder or glance debug logs that would provide more details. Glance is using version 2. IF I try version 1 api glance will error out. Does glance api v1 works with liberty. How do I enable this. My storage backend is ceph. RBD is able to communicate to all volumes and all user ids are set correctly and have rrx for stores for glance, cinder and nova. Keyrings are present. Not seeing any errors with keystone . Controller box has haproxy,mariadb, glance and cinder. nova and neutron are installed on a separate box. Passwords in the mysql database for glance,cinder,nova match what is in the config file. Since I am using haproxy for HA the end point ports are non default. Services themselves are running on the default ports on each box. For debug isolation purposes only using 1 controller (glance,cinder,keystone, haproxy) and 1 compute (nova and neutron) # openstack image list +--------------------------------------+--------+ | ID | Name | +--------------------------------------+--------+ | f4040cc9-a2fa-45d5-9da3-52ffdde998a8 | cirros | | de815da9-135a-4f8d-99ff-9e954672d775 | cirros | # glance image-list +--------------------------------------+--------+ | ID | Name | +--------------------------------------+--------+ | de815da9-135a-4f8d-99ff-9e954672d775 | cirros | | f4040cc9-a2fa-45d5-9da3-52ffdde998a8 | cirros | +--------------------------------------+--------+ # nova service-list +----+------------------+----------+----------+---------+-------+----------------------------+-----------------+ | Id | Binary | Host | Zone | Status | State | Updated_at | Disabled Reason | +----+------------------+----------+----------+---------+-------+----------------------------+-----------------+ | 3 | nova-cert | ostackn1 | internal | enabled | up | 2016-01-11T19:29:52.000000 | - | | 5 | nova-consoleauth | ostackn1 | internal | enabled | up | 2016-01-11T19:29:56.000000 | - | | 7 | nova-conductor | ostackn1 | internal | enabled | up | 2016-01-11T19:29:49.000000 | - | | 27 | nova-scheduler | ostackn1 | internal | enabled | up | 2016-01-11T19:29:51.000000 | - | | 29 | nova-compute | ostackn1 | nova | enabled | up | 2016-01-11T19:29:54.000000 | - | | 31 | nova-network | ostackn1 | internal | enabled | up | 2016-01-11T19:29:49.000000 | - | +----+------------------+----------+----------+---------+-------+----------------------------+-----------------+ root@ostackn1:~# nova --debug image-list DEBUG (session:198) REQ: curl -g -i -X GET http://10.1.4.54:35358/v2.0 -H "Accept: application/json" -H "User-Agent: python-keystoneclient" INFO (connectionpool:205) Starting new HTTP connection (1): 10.1.4.54 DEBUG (connectionpool:385) "GET /v2.0 HTTP/1.1" 200 336 DEBUG (session:215) RESP: [200] Content-Length: 336 Vary: X-Auth-Token X-Distribution: Ubuntu Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2016 19:26:51 GMT Content-Type: application/json X-Openstack-Request-Id: req-e5ff4279-4632-4ae2-9f4f-af6cfdcb6727 RESP BODY: {"version": {"status": "stable", "updated": "2014-04-17T00:00:00Z", "media-types": [{"base": "application/json", "type": "application/vnd.openstack.identity-v2.0+json"}], "id": "v2.0", "links": [{"href": "http://10.1.4.54:35358/v2.0/", "rel": "self"}, {"href": "http://docs.openstack.org/", "type": "text/html", "rel": "describedby"}]}} DEBUG (v2:86) Making authentication request to http://10.1.4.54:35358/v2.0/tokens DEBUG (connectionpool:385) "POST /v2.0/tokens HTTP/1.1" 200 3066 DEBUG (session:198) REQ: curl -g -i -X GET http://10.1.4.54:8794/v2/ -H "User-Agent: python-novaclient" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "X-Auth-Token: {SHA1}b62d2f18c957d5cebd47eb593f4a55f8ccec82a8" INFO (connectionpool:205) Starting new HTTP connection (1): 10.1.4.54 DEBUG (connectionpool:385) "GET /v2/ HTTP/1.1" 200 374 DEBUG (session:215) RESP: [200] Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2016 19:26:53 GMT Content-Length: 374 Content-Type: application/json X-Compute-Request-Id: req-0a444962-ebec-4994-bd82-d00bacbfca60 RESP BODY: {"version": {"status": "SUPPORTED", "updated": "2011-01-21T11:33:21Z", "links": [{"href": "http://10.1.4.54:8794/v2/", "rel": "self"}, {"href": "http://docs.openstack.org/", "type": "text/html", "rel": "describedby"}], "min_version": "", "version": "", "media-types": [{"base": "application/json", "type": "application/vnd.openstack.compute+json;version=2"}], "id": "v2.0"}} DEBUG (session:198) REQ: curl -g -i -X GET http://10.1.4.54:8794/v2/ab601ee07c3a4ed293dc04f5fa1d90a1/images/detail -H "User-Agent: python-novaclient" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "X-Auth-Token: {SHA1}b62d2f18c957d5cebd47eb593f4a55f8ccec82a8" DEBUG (connectionpool:385) "GET /v2/ab601ee07c3a4ed293dc04f5fa1d90a1/images/detail HTTP/1.1" 500 209 DEBUG (session:215) RESP: [500] Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2016 19:26:53 GMT Content-Length: 209 Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8 X-Compute-Request-Id: req-ffab41dd-fb6b-40e0-b739-5705e7bd3b84 RESP BODY: {"computeFault": {"message": "Unexpected API Error.

[openstack-community] Speakers Bureau
by Tom Fifield 17 Nov '15

Hi all, There were a few discussions at the summit about making a Speaker's Bureau: User Group & OpenStack Day Events Branding (34:00) https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=XKjq-_d5uPw#t=2040 Ambassador Community Report discussion (31:58) https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=gUUAhLjMAoQ#t=1918 As noted by Gary from LA, one of the biggest challenges in being a meetup organiser is finding speakers. Our challenge is to create a software tool and some community process to make a 'bureau' or directory of speakers that user groups can count on. ==> A first step noted in the meeting was to define requirements. So, as user group leaders, what do you need from a speakers directory? As speakers, how do you want your information to be used? ==> Are you interested in joining the effort to make the speakers bureau reality? Regards, Tom

So, as user group leaders, what do you need from a speakers directory? As speakers, how do you want your information to be used? As a speaker, I would be okay with my email address being listed somewhere... User groups can use my information to contact me to determine availability for participation in either local or regional events. In general, I'd be okay with groups contacting me (even outside my city/region) if they think my areas of expertise/interest align with interest in their user groups. I think having a way to input this information (interests/expertise) into the tool might be useful for matching speakers too. > > ==> Are you interested in joining the effort to make the speakers bureau reality?

[openstack-community] Regarding Designate-Virtualenv Issues

Hi Folks, I am trying to use Designate using Virtualenv approach from the link : http://docs.openstack.org/developer/designate/install/ubuntu-kilo.html#exer… I was able to get the different Designate services started successfully. I have certain environment variables in the virtualenv also- export OS_USERNAME=openstack export OS_PASSWORD=password export OS_TENANT_NAME=myproject export OS_TENANT_ID=123456789 export OS_AUTH_URL=https://127.0.0.1:9001/v2.0/ I then began exercising the API calls. When I am trying to fire this : http://IP.Address:9001/api_version/command , I am doubtful about what IP Address it should be. It did not work with https://127.0.0.1:9001/v2.0/ I also tried 'curl -s checkip.dyndns.org | sed -e 's/.*Current IP Address: //' -e 's/<.*$//' to find out the IP Address but it gives null result for the server address. Can anyone please let me know where does the problem lie? Am I mentioning the IP Address wrong somewhere?

Deprecation for Untagged Code <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-November/078336.html> Ironic tries to keep master backwards compatible. There are deployers doing continuous deployments of Ironic off of master. Based on the deprecation tag policy [3], it only covers released and tagged code, but not unreleased code or features introduced in an intermediate release. A proposal [4] by Jim: Three month deprecation period is needed for features that were never released. A feature that was introduced in a intermediate release needs to be deprecated in the next intermediate release or coordinated release, and supported until the next release and 3 months. Outcome of Distributed Lock Manager Discussion @ the Summit <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-November/078214.html> There was a two part session at the summit [5] Previously, there was an unwritten policy that DLMs should be optional, which led to writing poor DLM-like things backed by databases. Continuing our existing pattern of usage like databases and message-queues, we’ll use an oslo abstraction layer: tooz [6]. Current OpenStack project requirements that surfaced in discussion for DLMs, it’s likely that Consul, Etcd and Zoo Keeper will be fine to use via Tooz. No project required a fair locking implementation in the DLM. We want to avoid the situation of unmaintained drivers. We adopted a similar requirement from oslo.messaging driver requirements [7]: Two developers responsible for it Gating functional tests that use dsvm Test drivers in-tree need to be clearly referenced as a test driver in the module name. Davanum brings in Devstack ZooKeeper support [8]. An etcd driver is in review for Tooz [9]. A Consul driver in Tooz is also planned [10]. Concerns raised about the default DLM driver being ZooKeeper: It’s a new platform for operators to understand We don’t know how well ZooKeeper will work with openjvm as oppose to Oracle’s JVM. Troubleshooting Cross-Project Communication <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-November/078138.html> Evolve the current cross-project meeting to an “as needed” rotation, held at any time on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. Based on feedback [11] it’s difficult to have meetings at different times on Tuesday and Wednesdays. There was consensus that the meeting can be “as needed” on Tuesday, and that most announcements will happen in the mailing list, and sometimes show up in this weekly Dev List Summary. API For Getting Only Status of Resources <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-November/078318.html> Projects like Heat,Tempest, Rally, and other projects that work with resources are polling for updates on asynchronous operations. Boris proposes having API’s expose the ability to just get the status by UUID, instead of fetching all data on a resource. Clint suggests instead of optimizing for polling, we should revisit the proposal for a pub/sub model, so users can subscribe to updates for resources. Sean suggests near term work around is to actually use Searchlight, which today monitors the notification bus for Nova. Searchlight is hitting the Nova API more than ideal, but at least it’s one service. Longer term we need a dedicated event service in OpenStack. Everyone wants web sockets, but anticipating 10,000+ open web sockets, this isn’t just a bit of python code, but a highly optimized server underneath.

Hello all, We're testing RDO in our school lab, but the network have QoS, when 30 students downloading RDO caused network connection lost. We're thinking to download RDO to our YUM server, and then students download RDO from this YUM server to avoid this issue. Can someone tell me how to do with YUM server ? thanks.

[openstack-community] Tokyo Session for User Group & OpenStack Days Leaders
by Lauren Sell 23 Oct '15

23 Oct '15

Hi everyone, I wanted to give you a heads up that we have a working group session planned Wednesday at 3:40 pm, and would like to get as much participation and feedback from User Group leaders and OpenStack Day organizers as possible. http://sched.co/4Nyj <https://www.openstack.org/summit/tokyo-2015/schedule/main-conference> More than a year ago, Tom Fifield and others in the community kicked off a process to help identify and define “official" user groups in an effort to encourage high quality, sustainable and community-driven groups around the world. We have since created the user groups portal (groups.openstack.org <http://groups.openstack.org/>) and began on boarding dozens of groups, but have yet to pull the trigger on the “official” user group designation. One thing that has been missing is an official user group logo, which is an important part of the recognition and signal to community members. In April, we developed several options for official User Group and OpenStack Days logos and solicited feedback via a community survey. The logo options had the OpenStack colors and word mark, but not the traditional OpenStack “O” icon. The feedback was pretty neutral on the logos produced, with the primary request being to incorporate the “O” icon. After receiving the feedback, we stalled out due to bandwidth around the Vancouver Summit, but now have a proposed user group logo with the “O” icon and are ready to move the program forward. Please join us Wednesday afternoon in Tokyo to voice your opinion and learn how to participate. The primary goal for this session is to dust off the official user group process and make sure everyone is on board, so we can begin recognizing official user groups with the new proposed branding as soon as possible. We would also like to discuss how the OpenStack Days programs and branding will evolve alongside it (openstack.org/event-policy) Finally, we would like to brainstorm other programs or funding opportunities that the Foundation can offer to help support official user groups — so please come with ideas for what would make the biggest impact in your local community. We’ll of course be sharing notes after the fact via the community mailing list. Thanks, Lauren

[openstack-community] #WeAreOpenStack
by Allison Price 22 Oct '15

22 Oct '15

Hi everyone, At the OpenStack Summit Tokyo, we are kicking off a social media initiative to promote diversity and inclusivity within the OpenStack community. This idea was developed by the Women of OpenStack, and we encourage everyone in the community, even if you aren’t able to attend the Summit, to join in! To participate, use the hashtag #WeAreOpenStack on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram to show what the OpenStack community means to you. Posts can include pictures of you with fellow community members or your perspective of being a part of the community. The OpenStack Summit Tokyo is simply going to be the launch of this hashtag, but after the Summit, continue to use the hashtag at different OpenStack events, including OpenStack Days, meetups and even day-to-day activities with your fellow Stackers. Cheers, Allison

[openstack-community] OpenStack Community Open Space at the Tokyo Summit
by Sharone Zitzman 20 Oct '15

20 Oct '15

Hi Everyone, I'm very excited to be making my way to my first OpenStack Summit, despite organizing the OpenStack Israel community for a number of years now (annual event, meetup, and web presence). I think this is an excellent opportunity to leverage the diversity of community leaders from around the globe all being in the same place and I wanted to attempt to organize an on the ground "open space" meeting - i.e. an ad hoc, informal, brainstorming session - where we can all learn from each other about what we're doing on the ground, and from each other's experience. I have created a global OpenStack community Facebook group, so we can all have a place to collaborate: https://www.facebook.com/groups/637144716425889/ And have scheduled an on the ground event for Wednesday October 28th at 10:00 AM - which is between other conference community sessions at the summit. https://www.facebook.com/events/933499416688213/ You are all invited to join both the group and the meetup. Looking forward to meeting you all there.

Upgrade to Gerrit 2.11 <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-October/076962.html> The OpenStack Infra team would like to upgrade from Gerrit 2.8 to 2.11. Proposing to do the upgrade shortly after the Mitaka summit. Motivation: Take advantage of some of the new REST API, ssh commands, and stream events features. There is a big UI change in 2.11, in which 2.8 includes both the old and new style. Preview 2.11 [9]. If you don’t like Gerrit 2.11, give Gertty [10] a try. Service Catalog: The Next Generation (Cont.) <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-October/076592.html> Continuing from last week summary… <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2015/10/openstack-weekly-community-newsletter…> Sean Dague realizes that while people want to go in much more radical directions here, we should be careful. This is not a blank slate, as there are enough users using it that we must do careful shifts that enable a new thing similar to the old thing. Moving away from REST is too much, at least in the next 6 to 12 months. Getting a service catalog over REST without auth, or tenant IDs gets us somewhere to figure out a DNS representation. Establishing Release Liaisons for Mitaka <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-October/077033.html> Doug Hellmann writes that the release management team relies on liaisons from each project to be available for coordination for work across all teams. Responsibilities of release liaisons [11]. Signup [12]. Release Communication During Mitaka <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-October/077033.html> Doug Hellmann begins one of many emails describing difference in the way we handle release management for the Mitaka cycle. In the past, we’ve had communication issues where project team leads didn’t see or pay attention to release related announcements. This email was sent to the list and individual project team leads, to improve the odds that all will see it. “[release]” topic tag on the openstack-dev mailing list will be used. All project team leads and release liaison should configuring their email client to ensure the messages are visible. Requests + urllib3 + distro package (cont.) <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-October/076518.html> Continuing discussions from last week… <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2015/10/openstack-weekly-community-newsletter…> Robert Collins comments a trivial workaround is to always use virtualenvs and not system-site-packages. Has OpenStack infra team considered using system-site-packages? Yes, but we take advantage of the python ecosystem uploading new releases to PyPI. We can then pretty instantly test compatibility of our software with new releases of dependencies. A way forward is: Get distros to fix their requests python dependencies Ubuntu [13] Fedora [14][15][16] Fix existing known bugs in pip where such dependencies are violated by some operations. Stop using vendorized version of requests and fork the project to use dependencies it should from the start. Convince upstream to stop vendorizing urllib3. Always use distro packages of requests, never from virtual environments. Scheduler Proposal (cont.) <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-October/076373.html> Continuing from last week’s summary… <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2015/10/openstack-weekly-community-newsletter…> Ed notes that Josh Harlow’s solution isn’t too different than the current design of hosts sending their state to the scheduler. The reason for Cassandra proposal was to eliminate the duplication and have resources being scheduler and the scheduler itself all working with the same data. This is the intent of the current design. The data can never be perfect, so work with what you have and hope the rest of the system deals with your mistakes and gracefully retry. (e.g. scheduled compute node no longer has resources to accommodate a request.) To make this solution possible for downstream distributions and/or OpenStack users) you have to solve: Cassandra developers upstream should start caring about OpenJDK. Or Oracle should make its JVM free software. Clint notes that Cassandra does not recommend OpenJDK [17]. Thomas adds: Upstream does not test against OpenJDK. They close bugs without fixing them when it only affects OpenJDK. Thierry is generally negative about Java solutions as this being one of the reasons [18]. The free software JVM is not on par with the non-free JVM. We then indirectly force our users to use a non-free dependency. When the java solution is the only solution for a problem space, that might still be a good trade-off versus reinventing the wheel. However, for distributed locks and sharing state, there are some other good options out there. Clint mentions that Zookeeper is different from Cassandra. He has had success with OpenJDK. It’s also available on Debian/Ubuntu making access for developers much easier.

[openstack-community] Outreachy: Call for Funding, Mentors
by Lauren Sell 12 Oct '15

12 Oct '15

Hi everyone, Quick update on the Outreachy <https://www.gnome.org/outreachy/> program, including a request for funding and volunteer mentors. For those of you who are not aware, Outreachy helps people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software get involved by matching interns with established mentors in the upstream community. There have been a record 30 intern applicants and 11 volunteer mentors for OpenStack this next cycle, which will take place Dec 7, 2015 - March 7, 2016. The OpenStack program coordinators could use a few more volunteer mentors, and there has been specific interest in Ceilometer, Cinder, Horizon, Murano, Neutron, Nova, Sahara and Zaqar. You can learn more about what is expected from mentors and how to apply here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Outreachy/Mentors <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Outreachy/Mentors> Additionally, the Foundation agreed to sponsor five interns, but we could use some additional sponsors to help support the large increase in OpenStack applicants. The sponsorship cost is 6,500 USD per intern, which provide them a stipend for the three-month program. You can learn more about sponsorship here: https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/Admin/InfoForOrgs#Action <https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy/Admin/InfoForOrgs#Action> I personally believe Outreachy is one of the most important and effective diversity efforts we’ve invested in to date. We’ve had some amazing graduates become long-term contributors to our community. I cannot give enough praise and thanks to the program coordinators (Victoria Martinez de la Cruz and Mahati Chamarthy for OpenStack), volunteer mentors, and sponsors for making it possible. Please help spread the word. If you are interested in becoming a mentor or sponsoring an intern, please contact Victoria (victoria(a)vmartinezdelacruz.com <mailto:victoria@vmartinezdelacruz.com>) or me (lauren(a)openstack.org <mailto:lauren@openstack.org>).

Carol Barrett mentions that the current release naming process only allows the release to be named is announced and no sooner than the opening of development of the previous release [6]. Consensus is made to have this changed. Monty mentions this option was discussed in the past, but it was changed because we wanted to keep a sense of ownership by the people who actually worked on the release. Sean will propose this to the next group of TC members. Requests + urllib3 + distro packages <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-October/076518.html> Problems: Requests python library has very very specific versions of urllib3 it works with. So specific that they aren't always released. Linux vendors often unbundle urllib3 from requests and then apply what patches were needed to their urllib3 while not updating their requests package dependencies. We use urllib3 and requests in some places, but don't mix them up. If we have a distro-alterted requests + pip installed urllib3, request usually breaks. Lots of places the last problem can happen; they all depend on us having a dependency on requests that is compatible with the version installed by the distro, but a urllib3 dependency that triggers an upgrade of just urllib3. When constraints are in use, the requests version has to match the distro requests version exactly, but that will happen from time to time. Examples include: DVSM test jobs where the base image already has python-requests installed. Virtualenvs where the system-site-packages are enabled. Solutions: Make sure none of our testing environments include distro requests packages. Monty notes we're working hard to make this happen. Make our requirements be tightly matched to what requests needed to deal with unbundling. In progress by Matt Riedemann [7]. Teach pip how to identify and avoid this situation by always upgrading requests. Get the distros to stop un-vendoring urllib3.

Appointed PTLs: Robert Clark nominated security PTL Serg Melikyan nominated Murano PTL Douglas Mendizabal nominated Barbican PTL Election for Magnum PTL between Adrian Otto and Hongbin Lu MagnetoDB being abandoned, not PTL was chosen. Instead, it will be fast tracked for removal [2] from the official list of OpenStack projects. Release help needed - we are incompatible with ourselves <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/075075.ht…> Robert Collins raises that while the constraints system in place for how we recognize incompatible components in our release is working, the release team needs help from the community to fix the incompatibility that exists so we can cut the full Liberty release. Issues that exist: OpenStack client not able to create an image. Fix is merged [3]. Semver and dependency changes <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/075107.ht…> Robert Collins says currently we don’t provide guidance on what happens when the only changes in a project are dependency changes and a release is made. Today the release team treats dependency changes as a “feature” rather than a bug fix. (e.g. if the previous release 1.2.3, requirement sync happens, the next version is 1.3.0.) Reasons behind this are complex, some guidance is needed to answer the questions: Is this requirements change an API break? Is this requirements change feature work? Is this requirements change a bug fix? All of these questions can be true. Some examples: If library X exposes library Y as part of its API, and library Y’s dependency changes from Y>=1 to Y>=2. X does this because it needs a feature from Y==2. Library Y is not exposed in library X’s API, however, a change in Y’s dependencies for X will impact users who independently use Y. (ignoring intricacies surrounding PIP here.) Proposal: nothing -> a requirement -> major version change 1.x.y -> 2.0.0 -> major version change 1.2.y -> 1.3.0 -> minor version change 1.2.3. -> 1.2.4 -> patch version change Thierry Carrez is ok with the last two proposals. Defaulting to a major version bump sounds a bit overkill. Doug Hellmann reminds that we can’t assume the dependency is using semver itself. We would need something other than the version number to determine from the outside whether the API is in fact breaking. Due this problem being so complicated, Doug would rather over-simplify the analysis of requirements updates until we’re better at identifying our own API breaking changes and differentiating between features and bug fixes. This will allow us to be consistent, if not 100% correct. Criteria for applying vulnerability:managed tag <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/073435.ht…> The vulnerability management processes were brought to the big tent a couple of months ago [4]. Initially we listed what repos the Vulnerability Manage Team (VMT) tracks for vulnerabilities. TC decided to change this from repos to deliverables as per-repo tags were decided against. Jeremy Stanley provides transparency for how deliverables can qualify for this tag: All repos in a given deliverable must qualify. If one repo doesn’t, they all don’t in a given deliverable. Points of contact: Deliverable must have a dedicated point of contact. The VMT will engage with this contact to triage reports. A group of core reviewers should be part of the <project>-corsec team and will: Confirm whether a bug is accurate/applicable. Provide pre-approval of patches attached to reports. The PTLs for the deliverable should agree to act as (or delegate) a vulnerability management liaison to escalate for the VMT. The bug tracker for the repos within a deliverable should have a bug tracker configured to initially provide access to privately reported vulnerabilities initially to the VMT. The VMT will determine if the vulnerability is reported against the correct deliverable and redirect when possible. The deliverable repos should undergo a third-party review/audit looking for obvious signs of insecure design or risky implementation. This aims to keep the VMT’s workload down. It has not been identified who will perform this review. Maybe the OpenStack Security project team? Review of this proposal is posted [5]. Consistent support for SSL termination proxies across all APIs <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/074871.ht…> While a bug [6] was being debugged, an issue was identified where an API sitting behind a proxy performing SSL termination would not generate the right redirection (http instead of https). A review [7] has been given to have a config option ‘secure_proxy_ssl_header’ which allows the API service to detect ssl termination based on the header X-Forwarded-Proto. Another bug back in 2014 was open with the same issue [8]. Several projects applied patches to fix this issue, but are inconsistent: Glance added public_endpoint config Cinder added public_endpoint config Heat added secure_proxy_ssl_header config (through heat.api.openstack:sslmiddleware_filter) Nova added secure_proxy_ssl_header config Manila added secure_proxy_ssl_header config (through oslo_middleware.ssl:SSLMiddleware.factory) Ironic added public_endpoint config Keystone added secure_proxy_ssl_header config Ben Nemec comments that solving this at the service level is the wrong place, due to this requiring changes in a bunch of different API services. Instead it should be fixed in the proxy that’s converting the traffic to http. Sean Dague notes that this should be done in the service catalog. Service discovery is a base thing that all services should use in talking to each other. There’s an OpenStack spec [9] in an attempt to get a handle on this Mathieu Gagné notes that this won’t work. There is a “split view” in the service catalog where internal management nodes have a specific catalog and public nodes (for users) have a different one. Suggestion to use oslo middleware SSL for supporting the ‘secure_proxy_ssl_header’ config to fix the problem with little code. Sean agrees the split view needs to be considered, however, another layer of work shouldn’t decide if the service catalog is a good way to keep track of what our service urls are. We shouldn’t push a model where Keystone is optional. Sean notes that while the ‘secure_proxy_ssl_header’ config solution supports the cases where there’s a 1 HA proxy with SSL termination to 1 API service, it may not work in the cases where there’s a 1 API service to N HA Proxies for: Clients needing to understand the “Location:” headers correctly. Libraries like request/phatomjs can follow the links provided in REST documents, and they’re correct. The minority of services that “operate without keystone” as an option are able to function. ZZelle mentions this solution does not work in the cases when the service itself acts as a proxy (e.g. nova image-list). Would this solution work in the HA Proxy case where there is one terminating address for multiple backend servers? Yes, by honoring the headers X-Forwarded-Host and X-Forwarded-Port which are set by HTTP proxies, making WSGI applications unaware of the fact that there is a request in front of them. Jamie Lennox says this same topic came up as a block in a Devstack patch to get TLS testing in the gate with HA Proxy. Longer term solution, transition services to use relative links. This is a pretty serious change. We’ve been returning absolute URLs forever, so assuming that all client code out there would with relative code is a big assumption. That’s a major version for sure. Sean agrees that we have enough pieces to get something better with proxy headers for Mitaka. We can do the remaining edge cases if clean up the service catalog use.

Hi all, If you run OpenStack, build apps on it, or have customers with OpenStack deployments, please take a few minutes to respond to the latest User Survey or pass it along to your friends. Since 2013, the user survey has provided significant insight into what people are deploying and how they're using OpenStack. You can see the most recent results in these SuperUser Articles: [1][2][3]. Please follow the link and instructions below to complete the User Survey by ***April 8, 2015 at 23:00 UTC***. If you already completed the survey, there's no need to start over. You can simply log back in to update your Deployment Profile, as well as take the opportunity to provide additional input. You need to do this to keep your past survey responses active, but we hope you'll do it because we've made the survey shorter and with more interesting questions ;) Take the Survey ( http://www.openstack.org/user-survey ) All of the information you provide is confidential to the Foundation and User Committee and will be aggregated anonymously unless you clearly indicate we can publish your organization’s profile. Remember you can hear directly from users and see the aggregate survey findings by attending the next OpenStack Summit, October 27-30 in Tokyo (http://www.openstack.org/summit) Thank you again for your support. -Tom [1] http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/user-survey-identifies-leading-indu… [2] http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/openstack-users-share-how-their-dep… [3] http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/openstack-application-developers-sh…

[openstack-community] [upstream] Upstream Training prep, live assistance, and mentoring
by Tim Freund 21 Sep '15

21 Sep '15

Hi Everyone - We'll open registration for the Tokyo Upstream training soon, and we're doing something a little different this time: we are pairing students with mentors right away and allowing them to work through some of the technical details of OpenStack contribution before class begins. To do that, we need to fill our roster of Upstream mentors! We need people who are willing to mentor students via IRC and email before and after the class that occurs on October 25th and 26th, and we also need people who can be with us in Tokyo to help students complete hands on exercises. Please fill out the following form if you can help in either role: http://goo.gl/forms/fczq3NZ16g Our students will be looking for bugs tagged as low-hanging-fruit, so you can also help by tagging such bugs appropriately in Launchpad. If you're unfamiliar with Upstream training, and you'd like to learn more, we have basic course information and a complete training schedule on the wiki[1]. You can read about our Vancouver training session in Superuser[2]. [1] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStack_Upstream_Training [2] http://superuser.openstack.org/articles/what-building-legos-can-teach-you-a… Please direct additional questions or comments to the community(a)lists.openstack.org list with the [upstream] tag. You can also reach out to me directly. Thanks for your help! Tim -- Tim Freund 913-207-0983 | @timfreund http://tim.freunds.net

According to OpenStack governance, the TC will appoint the new PTL [1]. Barbican MagnetoDB Magnum Murano Security Seven projects will have an election: Cinder Glance Ironic Keystone Mistral Neutron Oslo There was confusion in UTC and how to submit nominations through Gerrit, but the TC will work with those candidates in Magnum, Barbican, Murano, Security. Doug Hellmann says MagnetoDB will be discussed for removal due to inactivity. [1] Proposed Priorities For Glance <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/074360.ht…> From conversations at the Ops Midcycle meetup and email threads with regards to Glance issues, Doug Hellmann put together a list of proposed priorities for the Glance team: Focus attention on DefCore: DefCore goals: Ensure all OpenStack deployments are interoperable at REST level (users can write software for one OpenStack cloud and move to another without changes to the code). Provide a well documented API with arguments that don’t change based on deployment choices. Integration tests in Tempest that test Glance’s API directly, in addition to the the current tests that proxy through Nova and Cinder. Once incorporated into DefCore, the APIs need to remain stable for an extended period of time, and follow deprecation timelines defined by complete V2 adoption in Nova and Cinder. In Nova, some specs didn’t land in Liberty. Both teams need to work together. In Cinder, the work is more complete, but needs to be reviewed that the API is used correctly. Security audits and bug fixes 5 out of the 18 recent security reports were related to Glance [2] Two ways to upload images to Glance V2: 1) POST image bits to Glance API server. a) Not widely deployed. Potential DOS vector. 2) Task API, to have Glance download it asynchronously. a) Not widely deployed. b) Assumes you know what task “types” are supported by which cloud, and the expected arguments (i.e. JSON blob). (e.g. Glance docs give a url for a source, but Rackspace gives a Swift location as a source) New Proposed ‘default’ network model <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/074527.ht…> Monty hates floating IPs. Observed with 5 public clouds, requiring you to use a floating IP to get an outbound address. Others directly attach you to the public network. Some allow you to create a private network and attach virtual machines to it, create a router with a gateway. Monty wants an easier way to have a virtual machine on the external facing network of a cloud. Users shouldn't have to learn about how to make that work with floating tips. This should be consistent behavior across public clouds. There is an effort set for Mitaka to work on Monty's request [3]. This will be done for 'nova boot' and work with multiple networks. If you have a more complicated network setup, this spec isn't for you. Base Feature Deprecation Policy <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/073576.ht…> Thierry proposes a standard way to communicate and perform removal of user-visible behaviors and capabilities. We sort of have something today, but not written of “to remove a feature, you mark it deprecated for n releases, then remove it”. Tag proposed [4]. We need to survey existing projects to see what their deprecation policy is. Proposed options for deprecation period: n+2 for features and capabilities, n+1 for config options n+1 for everything n+2 for everything Ben Swartzlander thinks this discussion also needs to cover long term support (LTS). Fungi thinks this is premature. Icehouse stable branch made it to 14 months before it was dropped due to not enough effort was given to keep it working. It was agreed “config options and features will have to be marked deprecated for a minimum of one stable release branch and a minimum of 3 months”. team:danger-not-diverse tag <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-September/074264.ht…> Josh Harlow is concerned that most projects start off small and not diverse, and this tag [5] would create negative connotations for those projects. Thierry raises it’s important to see the intent of the tag, rather by it’s name. The tag system is there to help our ecosystem navigate the big tent by providing bits of information. Example of information: how risky is it to invest on a given project? Some projects are dependent on a single company and can disappear in one day by the CEO’s decision. For this reason, Thierry supports describing project teams that are *extremely* fragile. As a result, the big tent is more inclusive. On the flip side, we need to inform our ecosystem that some project are less mature. Otherwise, you’re hiding this information.

[openstack-community] Tokyo Summit BoF Sign-Up
by Kendall Waters 14 Sep '15

14 Sep '15

Hi everyone, Birds of a Feather sign-ups are now open for the OpenStack Summit in Tokyo (October 27-30, 2015). We have a very limited number of slots so it is first come, first serve. The OpenStack community engages regularly with complementary open source projects, industry groups and standards bodies to further the adoption of cloud computing. One way we can support these organizations is to provide time, space and a willing group of participants to collaborate at each OpenStack Summit. As the Summit continues to scale, we are evolving our format and programming, and would like to offer the following opportunity to our friends in the open cloud ecosystem: Birds of a Feather (BoF) Sessions: For standards bodies, industry groups and open source projects who simply want to host a meeting during conference hours, we have a room dedicated to BoF sessions and meetups. These are single, 40-minute sessions that align with the conference schedule. They should be interactive and inclusive, not just a presentation or panel. Sign up HERE <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LinCEgeZFL8HixMLcLm86LnZd7ZlgssEWRx…> by September 30th. Cheers, The OpenStack Summit Team

[openstack-community] Houston OpenStack Meetup and OpenStack Houston
by Openstack Houston 02 Sep '15

02 Sep '15

Good day Community!, I have sent a request almost two weeks ago at this time regarding being listed as an "official" user group as well as bringing OpenStack Houston to fruition; very much like OpenStack Silicon Valley. At this time I have not got back any response unfortunately and I have attended a couple of the IRC meetings which did not yield any results as well. We have done all available/accessible tasks found at https://groups.openstack.org/official-group-process and http://www.openstack.org/brand/event-policy/ to be listed as an official user group and begin the groundwork on having an OpenStack [Day] Houston. If there is something missing please let us know so that we can get this underway as we have reached out to a number of sponsors/companies and have got them on-board but want to be sure we are in compliance with the policies/procedures posted by the foundation. If mentioned policies and/or procedures have changed please let us know so that we can adjust accordingly. Being that is has been almost two weeks already it would be great to get as much feedback as possible so that we can make up some time. We really appreciate your consideration and look forward to your response. Kind regards, Melvin Hillsman, Co-Organizer Houston OpenStack Meetup / OpenStack Houston info(a)openstackhouston.com 832.930.0395 @houstonosmeetup http://openstackhouston.com http://meetup.com/houstonopenstackmeetup

Actually, right now I'm working on an article that talks about the selection process and proposes possibly moving towards something closer to the one used by scientific conferences. I would be very interested in hearing from people on both sides of the issue. I'm actually trying to get this out today, so please feel free to reach out to me offline as well. Thanks! ---- Nick .

[openstack-community] Status of Ask OpenStack
by Stefano Maffulli 22 Aug '15

22 Aug '15

Hello folks, I'd like to recap the status of Ask OpenStack, one of the most visited web properties in openstack.org domain. TL;DR The project needs lots of love if we want it to survive. Volunteers are needed to drive its progress. I had a long roadmap for that project, from implementing new languages (Japanese, Korean, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese to start) to improve the spam filters, improve the UI/UX, etc but all those requests had to wait for two major work: 1) complete the OpenStackID provider so that Ask OpenStack could use it 2) upgrade the code to newer upstream releases At turn, these 2 work items depended on putting Ask fully under openstack-infra umbrella. That took almost a year but finally that the project's infrastructure is finally fully managed via a puppet module http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-infra/puppet-askbot/ The software is consumed directly upstream from https://github.com/ASKBOT/askbot-devel and the html skin is pulled from http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack-infra/askbot-theme/ So all the pieces are now in place for the roadmap to resume progressing. Issue is that I don't have time anymore to drive that effort. There are issues open that haven't been addressed. The spam/moderation issues are the most pressing ones. The list of open issues is on: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-community/+bugs?field.tag=askproject I hope that someone can step up to take ownership of this project and drive it forward, considering that the Foundation has in place a contract with the main developer of Askbot that can be leveraged.

[openstack-community] Summit CFP/Scheduling software
by Rich Bowen 14 Aug '15

14 Aug '15

The folks at FLOCK were wondering if the software that OpenStack Summit uses to collect and vote on the CFP is 1) FOSS and 2) generalizable to other events, or is it too OSSummit-specific to be used elsewhere? Anyone know who I should be talking to? -- Rich Bowen - rbowen(a)redhat.com OpenStack Community Liaison http://rdoproject.org/

[openstack-community] [infra] ask.openstack.org offline for upgrade
by Jeremy Stanley 11 Aug '15

11 Aug '15

Marton and I are taking the ask.openstack.org site offline for a couple hours to move it to a new server running a more recent OS, and upgrading the version of Askbot running on it so that support for Google authentication can be restored soon. The server should be offline no more than a couple hours, so expect to find it up and running again by 18:30 UTC. -- Jeremy Stanley

Using Trello to manage the student intake and mentoring seemed to work last time, so I created a new Trello board to manage the planning process: https://trello.com/b/VsS5MMPs The board is public, but only members can edit. I will add anyone interested in planning and implementation to the board -- just reply to this thread. If you have already volunteered on this thread, you will be added shortly after I send this email. I'm sure I've missed some steps on the board, so please add or edit as necessary. If you've never used Trello before, you can double-click any item to add additional detail on the back of the card. Thank you!

[openstack-community] Setting up Upstream Training in Tokyo [upstream]
by Stefano Maffulli 27 Jul '15

27 Jul '15

Hello folks, I spoke this week with Lauren and confirmed that Upstream Training can be organized also for Tokyo, like we've had it in Atlanta, Paris and Vancouver. The main difference is that this time we'll need more volunteer time to keep things running together because I don't have enough bandwidth and the Foundation is short-staffed, too. The main dates are Sunday-Monday, October 25-26 (the main conference kicks off Tuesday the 27th.) The Foundation has already set space for this and FNtech can provide all the logistics support. We need someone to take the lead to manage the whole process: - create the eventbrite page - keep track of participants - check/update the training material - get the legos - etc... After Vancouver there were also suggestions for improvements that it's worth incorporating in this edition. Does anyone want to take the lead for Upstream Training Tokyo edition? Cheers, stef

Is the suggestion to take the mean of those release numbers to determine an "OpenStack" release identifier, or maybe a sum total? (This is of course a rhetorical question.) We're naming a release cycle which tracks the development process of a bunch of different releases of discrete components each with their own version numbers. Also, lets stop insulting people on public mailing lists by implying that they or their processes and customs are infantile. It's not constructive at all. Further, we should pick one mailing list on which to have this discussion rather than cross-posting to four. -- Jeremy Stanley

Re: [openstack-community] [openstack-dev] OpenStack Meiji (明治) - Our next release name has been selected
by Jaesuk Ahn 08 Jul '15

08 Jul '15

Dear OpenStack Community, As Clint mentioned, there is some historical background regarding the name of "Meiji". I have been aware of the potential problem with "Meiji", however, I have not raise my voice here since it was not the top of the list. However, with current situation, IMHO, it is better to present my concern over this name. It was briefly mentioned in the previous email thread. Once again, please understand that the name "Meiji" can create some historical debate in East Asia, especially in Korea. Under the name of Emperor Meiji, Japan forcefully colonized Korea. Lots of people in Korea suffered during the colonization. Furthermore, this history is not the one only exists on the book. This is actually very recent event in terms of history. FYI, there is a wiki entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korea_under_Japanese_rule If you look at "legacy" section in the above wiki entry, you will understand what I am referring to. I am not saying the word "Meiji" is bad in general. I just want to state that this word can cause very negative feeling to some people in East Asia. I totally value the community's process and rules. I recognize that process to select "Meiji" itself was not the problem at all. However, I am sincerely asking the community to acknowledge my concern over this name, and please put some effort as a community to avoid any unnecessary debate. Thank you. Best wishes for everyone here in the community. Jaesuk Ahn, Ph.D. member of OpenStack Community and OpenStack Korea User Group.

[openstack-community] Default email settings on Ask.OpenStack.org
by Tom Fifield 06 Jul '15

06 Jul '15

Hi all, I wanted to start a discussion around the default email settings for new accounts on ask.openstack.org There are five settings [default in braces] for the types of emails askbot sends regarding questions and answers: 1. Asked by me [instantly] 2. Answered by me [daily] 3. Individually selected [instantly] 4. Entire forum (tag filtered) [weekly] 5. Comments and posts mentioning me [instantly] 1,2,3 & 5 are obviously about things that have some direct relation to you or your activity on the site. It seems pretty reasonable to me that you want to find out about those pretty quickly in many cases. Number 4 is more unusual, since the software tries to guess what you might be interested in seeing based on a filter of tags: * show all tags * exclude ignored tags [default] * only interesting tags * only subscribed tags So, essentially all users who don't meticulously change their email settings will receive a weekly email with a random list of 7 questions, titled something like: "[Ask OpenStack] 7 updates about "virtio", "network", "neutron", "subnet", "requirements" and more". There are arguments for this behaviour - mainly it encourages return visits to the site and potentially results in solving questions that might otherwise not be seen. The are also arguments against this behaviour - for example our tags are normally very broad: eg nova, neutron, compute, juno meaning tags the software thinks are interesting for you may not be or that this behaviour is unexpected because you didn't explicitly subscribe. So, what do you think? Where is the sweet spot in these email settings? Regards, Tom

[openstack-community] [upstream] Vancouver upstream training session debrief
by Stefano Maffulli 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

Hello folks, first of all thank you to all instructors and volunteer staff and mentors that helped in Vancouver: this program would not be possible without the kind donations of your time and effort. I'd like to collect notes and comments on what went well and what should be changed for the next events. I'll start (quite long): Slides & content ================ - I think the rst format and common repository worked well. We miss one (set of) slides to illustrate the whole 2 days program. Maybe copying the content over from the wiki Info page[1] to the index.rst page would be a good thing. - the index.rst is not formatted properly. Christian Berendt is working on this and may need a help from sphinx/hieroglyph gurus https://review.openstack.org/#/c/185946/ - the draft site[2] is great. I think that keeping the slides in /draft/ is good enough since the status of those slides may not be always up to date with the authoritative source of information like governance.o.o or infra/manual - with the slides in .rst format and in a git repo, I think they could be hooked to a translation system. I'd consider hooking up and translate the material in other languages. Japanese would be the most likely candidate, and people from China have expressed also interest. - suggestions and commentts from the participants: + Maybe work through some more demos - ie, run through committing a change to sandbox doing it "live" from the presenter desk + Point out the differences between docs and code reviews - environment prerequisites + Talk about gating checks - ie, what the automated checks are actually checking for. + It might be worth considering recording it and making it like a Coursera course or a Kahn Academy course. + The slideshow can improved. It should contain more graphics (ex: apc/atc relation), clickable links (ex: stackforge). + It would be great to collect a list of bugs which are really "low hanging" fruits, so that they can be solved during the two days. + Teach about the source code. How it's organized? Why is it so? After rpm/deb packaging, where do files go on the root filesystem? How do I run tests? How do I write my own tests? What if I need to introduce a new file? How are the python packages arranged? How do subprograms communicate to each other? + consider separating software developers and technical writers One more comment led me to believe that we have not done a good job at communicating that the training is 2 days live + mentoring sessions afterwards. See below for ideas on how to fix this. Administrative process ====================== - Planning attendance is hard. Of the 85+ people who originally signed up, about 45 showed up. I noticed that about 10 people removed themselves when we started sending notifications in preparation to the live session. I think that the barrier to sign up is too low and we can raise it so that only highly motivated people sign up to attend. The low barrier also makes it hard for people to read and understand that the training is 2 days live + online mentoring afterwards. + To set the bar higher, I think we need to find a way to scale the method used by Loic. He engages with every applicant immediately, as they sign up, and if they don't respond to his solicitations he removes them from the list. That's very intense and time consuming but ends up getting more motivated people. I think this can be scaled by having a larger pool of mentors that gets to solicit applicants. A form of light automation using Google Forms and Trello (with glue provided by zapier.com) may be enough? Needs experimenting. + To make it clear that the training is 2 days + live sessions I think we should have people engage with mentors and set dates for meetings *before* the training starts. - I think the Trello board is a good step forward: it allows staff and management to follow progress of each student. Format ====== - I'm starting to think that to days is probably too much for some people. The comments I have received from the survey are all extremely positive but a couple of written comments make me believe that trying to shorten the class to 1 day and 1 extra day for custom deep dives would probably give more value. This deserves a thread on its own. Venue & logistics ================= - Participants and staff should have their names printed to facilitate social interactions - Renting the Legos was the best idea ever. Definitely worth considering for the future. Thanks again, stef [1] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStack_Upstream_Training/Info [2] http://docs.openstack.org/draft/upstream-training/#1

[openstack-community] [Upstream] Meeting in Vancouver on Friday evening
by Stefano Maffulli 16 May '15

16 May '15

Hello trainers and volunteer mentors, it's time: we start on Saturday morning. Like in other times, we should meet on Friday evening before the start to give one first look at the rooms and review the plan together. I am landing in YVR tomorrow at 4pm. We should try to meet, maybe around 7:30pm or so. How about we meet at the bar of the Pacific Rim hotel at 7:30pm? I'll be checking my email and hang out on IRC, too. There are still a couple of patches to the training material that need to land but all in all I'm not very concerned about these. https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:openstack/training-guides+status:o… We have been offered $500 worth of public clouds by Citicloud and free accounts on OVH, plus Dreamhost and HP have free trials. And we have trystack.org too, so we're well covered. Anything else I'm forgetting? See you tomorrow, stef

[openstack-community] [upstream] call for actions to attendants, teachers and and mentors
by Stefano Maffulli 12 May '15

12 May '15

Hello trainers, I'd like to pick your brain to finalize the call to action for the trainees in Vancouver. In past editions Loic had them start working before the session started and select bugs for them to work on. I think some of them found it difficult and didn't do it. It's a valuable exercise though and We can ask them to do it but I don't expect many of them to do it. On the other hand I'd like them to focus on setting up the basic for the dev environment. I'm drafting the message to send them on https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/upstream-letter using Loic's message as a base. Please review it and let me know by tomorrow what edits it needs. We have a trello board with all the participants names and details on https://trello.com/b/iuJab0VH/openstack-upstream-training-queue. I think the best way to use it is to wait until we meet in person in Vancouver: - we'll hide the no-show from that list - have each participant pick the bug and add it to their trello card - each participant picks a mentor (more than one participant per mentor) and sets date for online meeting and we all keep moving the cards to the appropriate lists. Hopefully this will give us more control and visibility of the results of the training. ACTION: spread the word that we need more bugs tagged Low Hanging Fruit. There aren't many. ACTION: review the slides! Many need some love. http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/community/2015-April/001126.html I have started https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/training-gui… but need help. Anything else I'm forgetting? /stef

[openstack-community] modify policy for security group on neutron
by Giuseppa Muscianisi 08 May '15

08 May '15

Dear all, in our openstack cluster, we would restrict the actions that users can do with security group and security group rules. Here's what we'd like to achieve: 1. Lock down security group (and rules) so that only admin (or tenant admin?) can modify them. 2. Add additional rules to the default security group. Can you please give me some advices on how to achieve these goals? Thanks in advance, Giusy -- --------------------------------------------------------------- " Considerate la vostra semenza: fatti non foste a viver come bruti, ma per seguir virtute e canoscenza " Dante Alighieri Divina Commedia - Inferno - Canto XXVI --------------------------------------------------------------- Giuseppa Muscianisi, Ph.D. CINECA - SuperComputing, Applications and Innovation Department Via Magnanelli 6/3, 40033 Casalecchio di Reno (BO) - Italy Phone: +39 051 6171 775 www.cineca.it

[openstack-community] How to route to instance from external router
by Wilson Kwok 04 May '15

04 May '15

Hello all, I'm testing Openstack at home, I already success create instance with private IP adddress and floating IP address, but I have question how to let external user access to instance, and intance access to internet, the following description is my network settings: 1. My home network is 172.28.0.0/16 and router gateway is 172.28.0.254 2. Private network for instance is 10.0.47.0/24 3. Bridge interface named br100 with eth0 is 172.28.0.1 1. My concept is add static route (destination 10.0.47.0/24 via 172.28.0.1 Bridge interface IP) and port forward in router, let user can reach instance. 2. Because instance private IP address assigned by dnsmasq, so I think use the following nova-network command can access to internet: nova-manage network create private --fixed_range_v4=10.0.47.0/24 --num_networks=1 --bridge=br100 --bridge_interface=eth0 --network_size=255 Please give me idea, thanks.

Hello folks I have closed the waiting list today, we're set for Vancouver. I will send on last message next week to the students with detailed instructions to select a bug for themselves and get ready with devstack environments. The training material needs some love. Checkout the training-guides repository: git clone git://git.openstack.org/openstack/training-guides build the Upstream slides: tox -e upstream-slides And see in doc/upstream-training/build/slides what needs to be changed. I think it's better to propose one change per slideset (rst file) for review. Cheers, stef

[openstack-community] [Upstream] A trello board to manage the trainees
by Stefano Maffulli 17 Apr '15

17 Apr '15

Hello folks I have been playing with trello and google sheet, integrated by this fantastic tool called zapier.com today. Basically, every time there is a new applicant for Upstream Training a new item is created on trello. Mentors can then use Trello to move applicants forward as they make progress in their training. I'm looking for volunteers to test the system. The Trello board has 5 states: - Applicants - Mentor selected - Assigned work item - In progress - Completed The list of Applicants contains the name of the applicant, affiliation and gender (so we know how to address them), and each card says what they have written in their application, plus their email. Mentors should check the list of Applicants, assign themselves the card and move the card forward in the queue. Any takers? Contact me offline to be invited to the Trello board. (I already added Sylvain and Tim since Trello knows them already :)) Cheers, stef

[openstack-community] [upstream] Start engaging with students
by Stefano Maffulli 13 Apr '15

13 Apr '15

Hello folks (especially upstream trainers and mentors) I'm planning on sending a notification to all people who registered for Upstream Training Vancouver, telling them the next steps. In the past we've asked people to start sharing their thoughts and plans ahead of the training and engage with the mentors, so they can help students pick a low-hanging-fruit bug and get their dev-environment ready for the live sessions. I'll send all applicants something along the lines below, with instructions to contact the alias upstream-training(a)openstack.org (me and Chris Ricker are the recipients, so far, but adding Sylvain and Tim for sure; any more volunteers?) Expect traffic to increase in the next weeks :) Cheers, stef Nice to e-meet you and thanks for subscribing to the OpenStack University course. I see from your submission that you're willing to start to improve your Free Software contribution skills. This is exactly what it is about, although most people think it is just for beginners :-) Could you send me a few URLs of your past contributions ? A week before the course, we will choose a contribution that matches your expectations. Something not too easy so you get to learn as much as possible. But not too difficult either so you can complete it in a reasonable timeframe. Do you already have something in mind ? Or a specific contribution skill that you would like to improve ? Don't hesitate to ask if you have questions regarding the training program.

[openstack-community] Contact sharing
by Nicolae Paladi 11 Apr '15

11 Apr '15

Hi, as a meetup organiser I often have issues finding quality speakers (well known issue) and also sponsors for the meetup (also known but less spoken about). However, each individual group organiser has already a set of company contacts/speakers. So, how about having a shared list (with access restricted to meetup organisers) containing useful contacts. It could have the following structure: * Companies: contact person, type of sponsorship, comments. * Speakers: contact, affiliation, link to presentation (if available) This will allow meetup organisers to contact companies regarding sponsorship. If a company is sponsoring meetup events in country X, they might be interested in doing it in country Y (or not, but it’s worth a try). Do you see any disadvantages with this approach? Alternatively, can it be improved? Cheers, Nicolae

[openstack-community] [Upstream] Volunteer Lego builders in/near Vancouver
by Stefano Maffulli 05 Apr '15

05 Apr '15

Hello folks, as you probably know Upstream Training uses Lego sets to simulate open source collaboration. It's a fun session with lots of educational value. We have a huge amount of Lego to build before May 16 and we need a place to build the sets in Vancouver or near (Seattle would work well, I think). In the past, we had volunteers receive the Lego sets, assembled them with friends, family, other volunteers and brought them to the training session. It's a lot of fun. Are there people in/near Vancouver interested in receiving a shipment of the Lego sets, assemble them and deliver them on Friday evening or Saturday morning to the convention center? Cheers, stef
