Thinking about how to Implement OpenStack Core Definition http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/10/04/implement-core/

There have been a number of community discussions (OSCON http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/08/06/core-community-dialogue/, SFO & SA-TX) around the process for OpenStack Core definition http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/08/13/openstack-core-positions/. We’re continuing to get community feedback. So what’s next?

Easier upstreaming / back-porting of patch series with git http://blog.adamspiers.org/2013/09/19/easier-upstreaming-with-git/

Have you ever needed to port a selection of commits from one git http://git-scm.com/ branch to another, but without doing a full merge? This is a common challenge and Adam Spiers http://blog.adamspiers.org/ spends some time explaining how to ease the pain.
