Learning how to debug the gate was identified as a theme at the "Establish Key Themes for the Mitaka Cycle" cross-project session: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/mitaka-crossproject-themes I agreed to take on this item and facilitate the process. Part one of the conversation includes referencing this video created by Sean Dague and Dan Smith: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fowBDdLGBlU Please consume this as you are able. Other suggestions for how to build on this resource were mentioned and will be coming in the future but this was an easy, actionable first step. Thank you, Anita.
