22 Mar '13

Highlights of the week Participate in the first OpenStack User Survey! <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/03/participate-in-the-first-openstack-us…> If you are an OpenStack user or have customers with OpenStack deployments, please take 10 minutes to respond to our first User Survey or pass it along to your network. Our community has grown at an amazing rate in 2.5 years, and it's time to better define our user base and requirements, so we can respond and advocate accordingly. TAKE THE SURVEY <http://awe.sm/r0NkC> A new agent management approach for Quantum in OpenStack Grizzly <http://www.mirantis.com/blog/a-new-agent-management-approach-in-quantum-for…> In Folsom, Quantum didn't have facilities to schedule its agents between cluster nodes, but the Grizzly release brings the support of a new component management approach, which addresses this issue. Havana Project Technical Leads Welcome to the new PTLs for OpenStack's future release, Havana: * Nova: Russell Bryant * Ceilometer: Julien Danjou * Keystone: Dolph Matthews * Cinder: John Griffith * Glance: Mark Washenberger * Heat: Steven Dake * Horizon: Gabriel Hurley * Oslo: Mark McLoughlin * Quantum: Marck McClain * Swift: John Dickenson They were elected democratically by their peer developers according to the rules of the OpenStack community to lead the next release cycle. Congratulations. The new PTLs will join three more people whose election is still ongoing, to form the OpenStack Technical Committee. *Moving to open development: OpenStack / Crowbar / Chef on SUSE* <http://jaegerandi.blogspot.com/2013/03/moving-to-open-development-openstack…> Crowbar was originally developed by Dell engineers, and is now a fully-fledged Open Source project involving close collaboration with SUSE and others. There are weekly public meetings <https://github.com/crowbar/crowbar/wiki/Meetings>, a public mailing list <https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/crowbar>, a |#crowbar| IRC channel <https://github.com/crowbar/crowbar/wiki/IRC-channel>, public Trello boards <https://github.com/crowbar/crowbar/wiki/Development> and so on. As an indication of the project's independent nature, the authoritative location for the git repositories has changed from https://github.com/dellcloudedge to https://github.com/crowbar, and a new homepage <http://crowbar.github.com/>is currently under construction. OpenStack Miniconf at PyCon Australia 2013 <http://aptira.wufoo.com/forms/pyconau2013-openstack-miniconf-call-for-prese…> PyCon Australia 2013 will be hosting two one-day miniconfs on *Friday 5 July* before the main conference proceedings kick off on Saturday 6 July. Miniconfs are events that focus on a specific community that relies heavily on Python, and allows practitioners in those communities to explore those topics in a much deeper way than the main PyCon conference can allow. The Call For Presenters for the OpenStack Miniconf is open now and closes on 15 April, 2013.

[openstack-community] The OpenStack User Survey
by Stefano Maffulli 22 Mar '13

22 Mar '13

Hello folks, I ask the leaders of the user groups around the world to spread the word about the OpenStack User Survey. If you an OpenStack user or know of OpenStack deployments in your region, please take a few minutes to respond to our first User Survey or pass it along to your network. Our community has grown at an amazing rate in 2.5 years, and it’s time to better define our user base and requirements, so we can respond and advocate accordingly. Below you’ll find a link and instructions to complete the User Survey by April 1, 2013. It takes 10 minutes. Doing so will help us better serve the OpenStack user community, facilitate communication and engagement among our users as well as uncover new OpenStack users that might be willing to tell their stories publicly. Take the survey: https://www.openstack.org/user-survey/OrgInfo All of the information you provide is confidential to the Foundation and will be aggregated anonymously unless you clearly indicate we can publish your organization’s logo and profile at http://www.openstack.org/user-stories. Make sure to tune in to the User Committee when they present the aggregate findings of this important survey at the OpenStack Summit, April 15-18, in Portland, OR. For those unable to attend, we’ll share the presentation and have a video of the session to view after the event. Thank you again for your support. .stef

[openstack-community] New OpenStack Venezuela User Group
by Ender Mujica 19 Mar '13

19 Mar '13

Hello, We are deploying the first Private Open Cloud using OpenStack in Venezuela. 5 Cisco UCS (2x10 core and 128 GB RAM) + 20 TB on Netapp to store Images and VM (using live migration). With OpenStack we are going to get reduce highly the lapse between a Virtual Machine is requested and the VM is delivered. My team and I have been working hard to learn from scratch about OpenStack. We started our lab using Essex over 3 servers, first with ubuntu 12.04 and later with Centos 6 . When Folsom came out in October 2012 we reconfigured the lab to implement Quantum (to replace the nova-network). We presented the project to our staff (Manager and Coordinators) and they approved to deploy the cloud in our company. At this time, we have ready and automated the Operative System and OpenStack installation through scripts and the plan to configure and deploy a production enviroment has begun. Also, we've started the Venezuela OpenStack User Group because want to share our knowledment and experience but need to know how or some help to include the group inside https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OpenStack_User_Groups We have: Google+ https://plus.google.com/communities/118105990522935078913 tweeter: @openstackve Google Groups https://groups.google.com/d/forum/openstack-ve Also, we reserve the domain openstack.org.ve. The next step will be hire a web server and with help of the Venezuelan's community to keep growing the group) This project and the Venezuela Group is a big and good challenge. Ing. Ender Mujica.

[openstack-community] [COMMUNITY] The path to Ask OpenStack
by Stefano Maffulli 19 Mar '13

19 Mar '13

[please reply only to community(a)lists.openstack.org] hello folks, we all push to improve how we interact with the OpenStack users, help newcomers find answers to their questions and ease their path to adoption. That's why we kickstarted the project Ask OpenStack. We're installing an instance of Askbot under the openstack.org domain, with the help of Askbot developers. It will have a custom skin and authentication based on Launchpad like the rest of our services. In the first phase it will support English and once we decide that we like it, we will start adding other languages so users will be able to ask questions and get answers in their own language. While the technical part of Ask is being done, I'd like to start talking about the organization of the content of the site, the static pages, etc. We'll probably also need moderators and OpenStack experts that can help answer questions on the site. If you want to help with these tasks please join the Community mailing list http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/community where we can discuss the project further. Thanks, stef
