Open Stack

Sure,I had participated in this with Sean Rob and Rocky and aware of the flow, let us review first the 5H1W approach to define 
Collect data points to prove the assumption below.
Why: Interoperability has become need of the hour, under both market, secutity  & privacy and political impact of country first globally.
Who: Service providers seek Interoperability to choose best of the breed clouds for next gen workloads , maintaining legacy and moving to ZTP, CI/CD, LCM to cut Capex, Opex and TTM through Clouded native Build and Deploy cycles.
When and Where: Before SP move workloads  to BM  Containers, CNF from VM and VNFs and use both approaches for Multi and Hybrid Clouds. How soon? Depends between now and 5G scale deployments. All this will show up in their DC at Network Edge as opposed to Central Cloud.
What: Get the CSP and SP or Gov NOCs an Interoperable BM platform with validated Designs for workload movements and hence Interoperable between current ang future Cloud innovations both Multi and Hybrid clouds.
HowOpenStack and Open Infra can play it's role as below.1. Intra OpenStack api confornance status for T+U released. Which Vendors habe motivation to seek compliance for OpenSrack and hence updates needed to Tempest test suites for the Delta or feature gaps.
2. Cloud Interoperability goals to try evolve strategy for BM cloud as part of Open Infrastructure initiative. Will this intrest GSMA CNTT folks and Intel to promote this? Can we use Prowl , ltmg, Jenkins +x along with Zuul working with Metal and Airship , which are part of our eco system?
Other wish list we can add but giving a push to what ttx strongly believes, we need to review and gather resources to address.
With Arkady showing interest I believe Dell, Ericson, Mirantis, Redhat and AT&T should be sought to help themselves through this initiative.
TTX Please find a bridge and let's get intrested members to the call next or weeks as ee plan March F2F board meeting.
ThanksPrakash.

Is the ask for one of board members to take over overseer responsibility for interop group?
Or just have more participation in interop group?
Or something else?
Thanks,

Subject: [Foundation Board] Looking for volunteers to lead Interoperability working group


[EXTERNAL EMAIL] 

Hi, newly-elected and returning board members,

During the last meeting, Alan called for new volunteers to join board committees like the Compensation committee or the Finance committee.

While not strictly a committee, the Interoperability working group (formerly known as DefCore committee) is a OSF board working group that leads the definition of new versions of our Interoperability guidelines, which are used to grant the rights to use various trademarks such as "OpenStack-Powered platform".

The group was previously led by Egle Sigler and Mark Voelker, who as of
2020 are no longer part of the board. Its main task is to get consensus on which APIs are necessary to be offered and which sections of code are necessary to be run to call your deployment "an OpenStack cloud". 
Technically, that translates into the definition of a set of Tempest tests matching the required API calls, so that products and deployments can assert the trademark through a suite of tools called RefStack.

This work is critical in driving interoperability between OpenStack deployments, which is an essential benefit of using OpenStack software in hybrid usage scenarios. Representing all facets of our community, the Board is uniquely positioned to define what that consensus looks like and evolve it over time.

Who is interested in participating in that workgroup ? I'm available to answer any question you may have about the process, and for questions I don't have the answer to, I copied Egle on this email so that she can bring additional context if needed.

Thanks!
