Call to develop the confirmation guidelines
by Alan Clark 27 Nov '18

27 Nov '18

Please respond by November 30. Directors, thank you for your leadership at this week's board and joint leadership meetings. The resolutions we passed will be a pivotal point for our community for years to come. Now, as a board, we have some additional work to undertake to define guidelines that we as a board will use to help confirm pilot projects. I would like to launch a new board work effort to define guidelines the board can use to fulfill our confirmation responsibilities as part of the strategic project process. These guidelines will be a key tool for us to ensure that we and the OpenStack Foundation will be in a proper position to help these projects grow, thrive and succeed as an open source community driven technology. Please let me know if you are interested in participating in this work effort. Once I know those who are interested, I will setup a kickoff call where we can determine who would like to chair this effort and to determine a path forward. Regards, AlanClark

02 Nov '18

I am enclosing a redline to the existing version of the bylaws and includes all of the changes, including the changes recommended today (based on a discussion with Jonathan, we slightly modified the last sentence rather than deleting it: we deleted the reference to twelve months but kept the rest of the sentence).

Bylaws draft changes for review at meeting
by Jonathan Bryce 02 Nov '18

02 Nov '18

Hi everyone, We’ve been working on Bylaws changes and have a draft that’s several revisions in to review today. This is not ready to vote on today. We’d like to vote on it at the Board meeting in Berlin. Today, I’d like to walk through the changes with everyone, see if there’s anything that needs more refinement and be ready to share the proposed amendments with the whole community. There are 3 basic categories of changes in this draft: 1) changes to support additional projects; 2) changes requested by the Technical Committee; and 3) changes to remove unnecessary corporate startup provisions in the original bylaws. Thanks! Jonathan
