      PTL Project Update Webinars Start Next Week

To allow for broader participation, we’ve scheduled post-Summit webinars
with the Project Team Leads (PTLs) to provide the latest project updates
rather than schedule these tracks during the Summit. We’ll be trying out
this new format starting next week. Join us Tuesday and Thursday at 7
a.m. Pacific/10 a.m. Eastern to discuss Neutron, Keystone, Nova, and
Swift. Then we’ll take a break for the holidays and finish off with the
remaining OpenStack projects finishing January 9. More details will be
available Monday, check the blog for sign-up links. If you miss these
events, they will be recorded and the recording links shared in a future
update.


      It’s Summer Internship Time in the Southern Hemisphere!
      <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/12/its-summer-internship-time-in-the-southern-hemisphere/>

Since it’s summertime in the southern hemisphere, we can now announce
our next round of Outreach Program for Women internships
<https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2013/DecemberMarch>! We
have four interns and four mentors this time around. Many thanks to HP,
the OpenStack Foundation, and Rackspace for funding our four. HP also
stepped in this round and made it possible for more of the nine
participating organizations to select interns, including OpenStack.
Plus, Red Hat developers are mentoring our interns. Anne Gentle asked
each intern, what do you see when you look above your screen? Find out
on the blog post!

      Release of OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) 1.11.0
      <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2013-December/000174.html>

The team released the new version of OpenStack Object Storage service:
26 developers worked on it, 5 are new contributors. Lots of changes
<https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/swift/tree/CHANGELOG>.
Congratulations to the team.


      Week-end project: Gerrit-powered meetings agenda
      <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-infra/2013-December/000517.html>

If anyone is looking for a limited-scope infra project to get more
familiar with OpenStack Infra, Thierry suggested to develop a new tool
to help manage the OpenStack Meetings calendar. Currently people modify
a wiki page and some other people are subscribed to page changes and
manually reflect them in a Google Calendar, which can be
downloaded/imported as .ics. This is extremely error-prone and quite
time-consuming.
