      Solum: Open Development From Day One
      <http://www.rackspace.com/blog/solum-open-development-from-day-one/>

Solum is a project designed to make cloud services easier to consume and
integrate into your application development process. Solum begins as a
shared vision, not a complete product. It's a vision that a coalition of
contributors believes in and wants to contribute to. For this to work,
everything has to be designed and developed in the open from the very
beginning. We're taking the OpenStack commitment to core values of open
development, open design and open community right to heart. Kudos to
Rackspace, eBay, RedHat, Ubuntu/Canonical, dotCloud/Docker, Cloudsoft
and Cumulogic for spearheading this effort.


      An analysis of the Technical Committee election
      <http://fnords.wordpress.com/2013/10/23/an-analysis-of-the-technical-committee-election/>

Thierry Carrez <http://fnords.wordpress.com/> played around with the
ballots from the election of the Technical Committee. Since detailed
ballot reporting was enabled in the past elections, it is possible to
test alternative algorithms and run various analysis over the data set.
As an official for this election, Thierry published his analysis of the
results
<http://www.cs.cornell.edu/w8/%7Eandru/cgi-perl/civs/results.pl?id=E_5ef3f04b3c641f3b>,
hoping it will help in the current discussion on a potential evolution
of the Foundation individual members voting system.


      OpenStack Havana -- the Quality Perspective
      <http://dague.net/2013/10/21/openstack-havana-the-quality-perspective/>

With Havana out in the wild, Sean Dague <http://dague.net/> reviews the
improvements made to the gating infrastructure during this release
cycle. Beyond just increasing the number of tests we run, we made some
changes in the nature of what we do in the gate. These changes are easy
to overlook: Sean's post gives a perspective in everything that's going
on behind the scenes when you try to land code in OpenStack.
