Reading unofficial notes [1], i found one topic very interesting: One Platform – How do we truly support containers and bare metal under a common API with VMs? (Ironic, Nova, adjacent communities e.g. Kubernetes, Apache Mesos etc)
Anyone present at the meeting, please expand on those few notes on etherpad? And how if any this feedback is getting back to the projects?
It was really two separate conversations that got conflated in the summary. One conversation was just being supportive of bare metal, VMs, and containers within the OpenStack umbrella. The other conversation started with Monty talking about his work on shade, and how it wouldn't exist if more APIs were focused on the way users consume the APIs, and less an expression of the implementation details of each project. OpenStackClient was mentioned as a unified CLI for OpenStack focused more on the way users consume the CLI. (OpenStackSDK wasn't mentioned, but falls in the same general category of work.) i.e. There wasn't anything new in the conversation, it was more a matter of the developers/TC members on the board sharing information about work that's already happening.
