<div dir="ltr">Hi Robert, <div><br></div><div>What's your plan for documenting the efforts so that others can do this in their environments? Is there any documentation currently for which you can send links?</div><div>
<br></div><div style>The Doc team is especially interested in configuration docs and installation docs as those are the toughest to produce in a timely, accurate manner now. We have a blueprint for automatically generating docs from configuration options in the code. We are trying to determine a good path for install docs for meeting the release deliverable -- much discussion at <a href="http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-docs/2013-July/002114.html">http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-docs/2013-July/002114.html</a>.

<br>
* Detailed mission statement (including why their effort is essential<br>
to the completion of the OpenStack mission)<br>
<br>
I think this is covered. In case its not obvious: if you can't install<br>
OpenStack easily, it becomes a lot harder to deliver to users. So<br>
deployment is essential (and at the moment the market is assessing the<br>
cost of deploying OpenStack at ~ 60K - so we need to make it a lot<br>
cheaper).<br>
<br>
* Expected deliverables and repositories<br>
<br>
We'll deliver and maintain working instructions and templates for<br>
deploying OpenStack.<br>
Repositories that are 'owned' by Deployment today<br>
diskimage-builder<br>
tripleo-image-elements<br>
triple-heat-templates<br>
os-apply-config<br>
os-collect-config<br>
os-refresh-config<br>
toci [triple-o-CI][this is something we're discussing with infra about<br>
where it should live... and mordred and jeblair disagree with each<br>
other :)].<br>
tripleo-incubator [we're still deciding if we'll have an actual CLI<br>
tool or just point folk at the other bits, and in the interim stuff<br>
lives here].<br>
<br>
<br>
* How 'contribution' is measured within the program (by default,<br>
commits to the repositories associated to the program)<br>
<br>
Same as rest of OpenStack : commits to any of these repositories, and<br>
we need some way of recognising non-code contributions like extensive<br>
docs/bug management etc, but we don't have a canned answer for the<br>
non-code aspects.<br>
<br>
* Main team members<br>
Is this the initial review team, or something else? If its the review<br>
team, then me/Clint/Chris Jones/Devananda.<br>
If something else then I propose we start with those who have commits<br>
in the last 6 months, namely [from a quick git check, this may be<br>
imperfect]:<br>
Me<br>
Clint Byrum<br>
Chris Jones<br>
Ghe Rivero<br>
Chris Krelle<br>
Devananda van der Veen<br>
Derek Higgins<br>
Cody Somerville<br>
Arata Notsu<br>
Dan Prince<br>
Elizabeth Krumbach<br>
Joe Gordon<br>
Lucas Alvares Gomes<br>
Steve Baker<br>
Tim Miller<br>
<br>
Proposed initial program lead (PTL)<br>
I think yours truely makes as much sense as anything :).<br>
