Open Stack

Hi Alan,

I think this would be a valuable activity to maintain awareness and alignment of interests.
Absolutely agree the TC owns the prioritization and processes around themes, however the board may prove to be a good source of input for that activity.

Subject: [Foundation Board] Suggest a candidate theme to the TC?

OpenStack Board Directors,

At the Denver Leadership meeting[1], the TC included an update on the OpenStack-wide Goals or ‘themes’. These themes are one or two goals that all the projects aim to complete during the release. Such goals aim to achieve visible common changes. I was happy to see the progress and

At the meeting, the TC stated that it would be acceptable for the OpenStack Board to submit a suggested goal. This doesn’t mean that the TC would automatically include it, but that it would then go through the TC process outlined on the TC goals page[2] for process and approval.



Would it be productive for the OpenStack Board to discuss, agree upon and submit a candidate goal for some future release?  I can think of two or three ideas that would perhaps be pertinent ideas to come from the board.



I’m pinging you for your feedback and insight.  Is there a ‘theme goal’ that the board should consider submitting? Do you think this would be a valuable board email discussion over the next couple months?



 Regards,

AlanClark
