<h3><a
href="http://www.mirantis.com/blog/introducing-murano-bringing-windows-environment-to-openstack/">Introducing
Murano: Bringing Windows Environments to OpenStack</a></h3>
<p>In response to growing demand for deploying and running Windows
based applications on OpenStack cloud, the team at Mirantis
started <a href="https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Murano">Murano</a>:
a native OpenStack component that enables fast provisioning and
operation of Windows Environments on demand.</p>
<h3><a

Wrote OpenStack Grizzly Docs?</a></h3>
<p>Sneaking a peek at the numbers for documentation along with the
code should show us pointers about docs keeping up with code. <a
href="http://justwriteclick.com/">Anne Gentle</a> dives into the
documentation with data and insights.</p>
<h3><a
href="https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Release_Naming#.22I.22_release_cycle_naming">“I”
release cycle naming</a></h3>
<p>The next OpenStack summit will happen in Hong Kong. That creates
a pretty challenging naming problem, since there is no word
starting with “i’ in classic transliteration of Chinese words. So
the Technical Committee is willing to bend the rules <i>a little</i>
to extend the range of candidates… Feel free to add suggestions to
the list on the wiki.</p>

Voices: Monty Taylor, HP</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://engineering.cloudscaling.com/">Cloudscaling
Engineering</a> talked with Monty Taylor of HP (reaching
rockstar status also with a <a href="http://www.wired.com/">wired.com</a>
<a
href="http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/04/new-hackers-taylor/">profile</a>
this week) at the OpenStack Summit in Portland. Monty leads the CI
(continuous innovation) project for OpenStack. In that role, he
and his group have built testing systems that have made it
possible for the OpenStack project to scale from a few dozen
contributors for the Bexar release to more than 700 developers now
pushing hundreds of patches daily to OpenStack. Watch the video <a

<h3><a href="http://markmail.org/message/kjv4kry67732nawb">A little
tracing hack</a></h3>
<p>Timothy Daly at Yahoo! added metrics and tracing for OpenStack
and released <a href="https://github.com/timjr/tomograph">tomograph</a>:
a tool to see what and how OpenStack is doing behind the curtains.</p>

to run pylint with few false positives</a></h3>
<p>Testing your python code can get complex and with pylint, you <em>will
</em>see false positives, meaning it will complain some lines as
bugs that are actually correct. lintstack is designed to address
this problem: <strong>reduce false positives from pylint as much
as possible without sacrificing accuracy</strong>. <a
href="http://cloudystuffhappens.blogspot.com/search/label/openstack">Yun
Mao</a> describes how lintstack works.</p>
