Thank you for your feedback - this is first one since we joined Big Tent
and very useful.

First releases were done during project move and it seems this was
forgotten. Anyway there's new release planned to be done.

There was decreased activity last few months mostly because one of
members who was leading these meetings temporarily disconnected from the
project and because there wasn't anything on agenda to discuss. Still
these meetings were taken at least 1~2x a month which seemed to be
sufficient.

Very excessive documentation and other info is at separate developer
pages: http://docs.openstack.org/developer/openstack-salt/
There should be surely new record in specs after new release is made.

There are tests already doing mostly linting (running states in
dry-run). More complex tests are in progress but it takes some time
mostly because used technology is a little bit controversial (there's no
usable standard in saltstack community yet).

I think we are going to fix things, to summarize:

 - make new release for Newton + update specs
 - elect new PTL
 - be more active in openstack-dev mailing list (maybe also have
   separate ML just for our team?)

If there's more we can do, we are available at Freenode/#openstack-salt.
