Open Stack

While we have not discussed the detailed structure of the user committee, a
structure such as 3 reserved seats for elected user group representatives
from Americas, APAC and EMEA has been mentioned. This could help funnel
input and structure information cascading.

Hi Stefano,

Is it stand for the Foundation or just discuss as APAC list?

That's one of the possible outcomes. The idea is to help user groups get
started and continue getting ideas for their meetings. Also, one of the
things we want to achieve is to give continuity to the conversations that
start at the Design Summit: lots of topics get touched during the summits,
blueprints are created but then between the 6 months of the release lots of
these fall back into oblivion (it's normal) only to be picked up again after
6 months, with little progress made. One of the ideas thrown around is to
start tracking these little discussions/blueprints and keep them hot for
topics to spend at meeting/meetup time.

 

Ryan, JC and I have been putting together the structure for the
OpenStack user committee (as described on the foundation list at
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/foundation/2012-December/001289.html).
As we have collected input from various parties, there is a proposal for
part of the committee to consist of user group representatives from
different geographies.

 

I think it's good to 'force' having a representation from other geographical
places into the User Committee. We may need to add some formalisation also
to the user groups this way.


Cheers,
stef
