The Quantum team has done a great job during the Grizzly cycle and I'm excited about what's ahead for the Havana cycle. My work at DreamHost provides me a unique perspective of deploying Quantum at scale using both IPv4 and IPv6. Working for a deployer also reinforces my desire for a vibrant, multi-vendor ecosystem within Quantum.<br><br>Qualifications<br>-------------------<br><br>I am a Quantum core developer with 13 years of commercial Python development experience. During my career, I have developed and deployed network applications based on the same underlying libraries as Quantum. I started contributing to Quantum during the Essex development cycle. In Folsom, I was promoted to core and was the primary developer of the DHCP implementation and Quantum's network namespace library.<br><br>Grizzly Accomplishments<br>----------------------------------<br><br>In the Grizzly cycle, I worked both as a developer and a core team member.<br><br>Grizzly Development:<br>- Added Metadata Service Support to Quantum. (Quantum High Priority)<br>- Developed database migration framework for Quantum to support all plugins. (Quantum Essential Priority)<br>- Developed the LBaaS Agent Reference Implementation. (Quantum High Priority)<br>- Added support for preserving NIC ordering when booting an instance attached to Quantum. (Nova High Priority Bug)<br><br>Grizzly Core Team:<br>- Second most active reviewer on the Quantum team.<br>- Leader of the L3/IPAM/DHCP and Database sub teams.<br>- Led triaging and sub-team assignment of bugs.<br>- Assisted members of the community to further their understanding of Quantum and improve Python development best practices.<br>- Interfaced with vendors new to Quantum and helped in the integration of their plugins.<br> (core reviewer on 4 of the new vendor plugins included with Grizzly)<br>- Worked to promote Quantum by presenting at regional OpenStack Meetups in both Atlanta and Los Angeles.<br><br><br>Havana<br>-----------<br><br>During the Havana development cycle, I'd like to see the team focus on:<br><br>- Continuing to grow the community of contributors and code reviewers.<br>- Improving documentation for both deployers and developers.<br>- Improving database resource modeling and extension management.<br>- Collaborating with the Nova team to make Quantum the default network implementation.<br>- Leveraging the service insertion framework to add new services (i.e. VPN).<br>- Modularization of L2 and L3.<br>- L3 improvements (ACLs, better IPv6, pluggable IPAM).<br>- Integrating plugins from vendors new to the community including LBaaS plugins/drivers.<br>- Further work to ease deploying at scale.<br>- More efficient Quantum system testing and gating.<br>- Supporting the Horizon team for better Quantum integration.<br><br><br>I'd love the chance to be the PTL and work with the Quantum team to fill in gaps in this list during the summit in Portland.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>mark<br>_______________________________________________<br>OpenStack-dev mailing list<br><a href="mailto:OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org">OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev" target="_blank">http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev</a><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>OpenStack-dev mailing list<br><a href="mailto:OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org">OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org</a><br><a href="http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev" target="_blank">http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev</a><o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><br><br clear=all><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>-- <br>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br>Dan Wendlandt <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Nicira, Inc: <a href="http://www.nicira.com" target="_blank">www.nicira.com</a><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>twitter: danwendlandt<br>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div></div></body></html>
