Horizoners,<br>
<br>
As discussed in TripleO and Horizon meetings, we are proposing to
move Tuskar UI under the Horizon umbrella. Since we are building our
UI solution on top of Horizon, we think this is a good fit. It will
allow us to get feedback and reviews from the appropriate group of
developers.<br>
<br>
Tuskar UI is a user interface for the design, deployment,
monitoring, and management of OpenStack. The code is built on the
Horizon framework and facilitates the TripleO approach to
deployment. We work closely with the TripleO team and will continue
to do so. The Tuskar UI itself is implemented as a new tab, headed
"Infrastructure", which is added as a dashboard to OpenStack
Horizon. For more information about the TripleO project, check out
the project wiki: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TripleO">https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TripleO</a>.<br>
<br>
The following is a proposal on how the Tuskar UI project could be
integrated:<br>
- Create a new codebase for the Tuskar-UI under the horizon
umbrella, with its own core team<br>
- As an exception to the usual contribution process, commits to
Tuskar-UI codebase. may be pushed, +2 and approved by one company.
This is intended to make the development process faster. We are
currently developing the Tuskar-UI at a fast pace and there are not
yet many contributors who aren't employed by Red Hat that are
familiar with the code. As the code stabilises, and attracts users
and developers, this exception can be removed.<br>
- The Tuskar-UI cores would be cores of Tuskar-UI codebase only.
Horizon cores would be cores of the whole Horizon program.<br>
<br>
<br>
What does it mean for Horizon?<br>
- There will be more developers, reviewers and patches coming to
Horizon (as a program).<br>
- Horizon contributors will have time to get familiar with the
Tuskar-UI code, before we decide to merge it into the Horizon
codebase.<br>
<br>
If you have any questions, please ask!<br>

Thanks,<br>
