      Moving forward as a User Experience Team in the OpenStack Juno
      release cycle
      <http://uxd-stackabledesign.rhcloud.com/moving-forward-user-experience-team-openstack-juno-release-cycle/>

The OpenStack Juno Summit in Atlanta
<https://www.openstack.org/summit/openstack-summit-atlanta-2014/> was a
major turning point for User Experience professionals working on
OpenStack. There were 3 specific design sessions around UX work and 1
talk on the persona work
<https://www.openstack.org/summit/openstack-summit-atlanta-2014/session-videos/presentation/user-experience-in-the-openstack-community>,
all with great attendance, and the whole team committed taking a number
of actions to take over the course of the Juno development cycle. Liz
Blanchard <http://uxd-stackabledesign.rhcloud.com/> summarized them
quite nicely.


      OpenStack Technical Committee Update
      <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2014/06/openstack-technical-committee-update/>

The OpenStack Technical Committee (TC) meets weekly
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/TechnicalCommittee> and
recently decided to publish regular updates about the TC to the
OpenStack blog. The first post has news about the graduation process,
Glance and Designate.


      Calling on Security Engineers / Developers / Architects – Time to
      share your toys
      <http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-June/037413.html>

Lets work together and openly on security review and threat analysis for
OpenStack. There are currently scores of security reviews taking place
on OpenStack architecture, projects and implementations. Robert Clark
sent a call for action to OpenStack developers: “All the big players in
OpenStack are conducting their own security reviews, we are all finding
things that should be addressed in the community and that we are all
missing things that others have found too.” Robert’s call is for all the
security people out there in the community to come together and share
expertise on Threat Modelling/Analysis in OpenStack.
