How are we picking the OpenStack DefCore “must pass” tests? <http://robhirschfeld.com/2014/01/07/defcore-critieria/> /WARNING LABEL: THE FOLLOWING SELECTION CRITERIA ARE PRELIMINARY TO GET FEEDBACK AND HELP VALIDATE THE PROCESS. /As part of the DefCore work <http://robhirschfeld.com/2014/01/06/openstack-defcore/>, we have the challenge of taking all the Tempest tests and figuring out which ones are the “must-pass” tests that will define core (our note pages <https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/DefCoreTestCriteria>). We want to have a very transparent and objective process for picking the tests so we need to have well defined criteria and a selection process. OpenStack @ FOSDEM ’14 <http://fnords.wordpress.com/2014/01/09/openstack-fosdem-14/> Every year, free and open source developers from all over Europe and beyond converge in cold Brussels for a week-end of talks, hacking and beer. OpenStack will be present ! We have a number of devroom and lightning talks already scheduled. Becoming a Core Contributor: the fast track <http://dachary.org/?p=2637> Anyone willing to become a better Free Software contributor is invited to attend the next session of Upstream University <http://upstream-university.org/> in advance of FOSDEM <http://fosdem.org/>. The training starts January 30th, 2014 in the morning, at a walking distance from Grand Place in Brussels <http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/50.84641/4.35933>. Organizing a Gate Blocking Bug Fix Day – Mon Jan 27th <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-January/023859.html> Developers may have noticed issues with our gate and in order to improve the situation Sean Dague proposed a Gate Blocking Bug Fix Day on Jan 27^th . All developers are encouraged to focus on fixing bugs on the OpenStack CI infrastructure.
