Hi Lico and team,


Let me show up in this thread again, because I think now is really good
timing to introduce myself.
My name is Kazunori Shinohara (Kaz) working for NTT Communications as
software engineer.
I'm taking Heat as public cloud's orchestration services by adding own
resource plugins and some patches, I do believe my experience on this
should help the further development of Heat and the relevant projects.

In the last summit, I got upstream institute and Heat onboarding session, I
guess I was next to Lance at there.
Now I've done my first contribution for a document bug with Zane and
Huang's help.
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/463154/
I will definitely keep contributing more*, esp..bug and blueprint part,
also I don't mind any tasks like as template example if I can help.*

> *tutorial*: We got some reports about the lack of tutorials for for for
features like software config/ rolling upgrade,
Yea I think so, honestly speaking I skipped software config function for
our public cloud because I could not figure out well how it works....

> Also, we do hope to get more reports on how people use heat,
I will be able to have feedback from actual use case on our public cloud
going forward.

>(Wednesdays at 1500 UTC in #openstack-meeting-5) :)
I will join too.

Regards,

Kaz Shinohara
