<p style="margin: 0 0 1em 0; color: black;">The ironic thing is the use of
"trademark program" pre-dates the use of program in OpenStack, and it
hasn't seemed to create a large problem to this point.</p>

<p>DefCore,</p>
<p>Feedback is welcome! I'm preparing the board report for the
meeting Monday (yikes, Monday!) and need to create the background info and
proposals for the meeting.</p>
<p>Here's the description I have for the change. I'll send the
proposals out for review tomorrow.</p>
<p>--------------------------</p>
<p>During the post-meeting review, <a
href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WHVGwIxLSB0Dh9xVntxO5faM4pJjTe0yM0JwpsLUebA/edit?usp=sharing"
target="_blank">Mark Collier drafted a Foundation supported
recommendation</a> that basically creates an additional core
tier <em>without changing the fundamental capabilities & designated
code</em> concepts. This proposal has been reviewed by the DefCore
committee (but not formally approved in a meeting).</p>
<p>The original DefCore proposed capabilities set becomes the
"platform" level while capability subsets are called
"programs." We are considering two initial programs, Compute
& Object, and both are included in the platform (see illustration
below). The approach leaves the door open for new core programs to exist
both under and outside of the platform umbrella.</p>
<p><a

border="0"></a></p>
<p>In the proposal, OpenStack vendors who meet either program or
platform requirements can qualify for the "OpenStack Powered"
logo; however, vendors using the only a program (instead of the full
platform) will have more restrictive marks and limitations about how they
can use the term OpenStack.</p>
<p>This approach addresses the "is Swift required?" question.
For platform, Swift capabilities will be required; however, vendors will be
able to implement the Compute program without Swift and implement the
Object program without Nova/Glance/Cinder.</p>
<p>It's important to note that there is only one yard stick for
programs or the platform: the capabilities groups and designed code defined
by the DefCore process. From that perspective, OpenStack is one consistent
thing. This change allows vendors to choose sub-components if that serves
their business objectives.</p>
