      OpenStack Celebrates Three Years!
      <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/07/openstack-celebrates-three-years/>

OpenStack is no one person or company or idea or line of code. It
derives its strength from the collective community. No matter when you
joined or what role you play, you have the ability to shape the future
of OpenStack and computing.

In three short years since the community was established, OpenStack has
truly become the center of cloud innovation, attracting hundreds of
talented developers, brand-name users, and support from major industry
leaders. This calls for a big toast to you, the OpenStack community!


      A Vision for Keystone
      <http://adam.younglogic.com/2013/07/a-vision-for-keystone/>

As OpenStack evolves, its requirements for Identity Management evolve
with it. In the early days, there was a single Nova server, and that
stored user-id and password. Once OpenStack evolved into a body of
servers, copying passwords around comprised too big a security risk.
Keystone was first implemented as a central repository for those
passwords. Adam Young <http://adam.younglogic.com/> writes in fine
details what the plans are for the future of the OpenStack Identity
Management service.


      Glance Registry Driver
      <http://blog.flaper87.org/post/51e47d110f06d35a218b0307/>

A lot is going on on Glance lately, although you may have not noticed.
The team has been working on several blueprints, and most of them aim to
promote glance as a public service. Flavio Percoco
<http://blog.flaper87.org/> has published an update of what’s cooking in
OpenStack Image Service.
