Part of the challenges<br /> today are backwards incompatible changes and new oslo bugs. I expect<br /> that once we get a single project to have an up to date oslo-incubator<br /> copy it will make syncing a second project significantly easier. So<br /> because I (hopefully) have some karma built up in nova, I would like<br /> to volunteer nova to be the guinea pig.</blockquote>

They would be responsible for getting nova's oslo code up<br /> to date. I expect this work to involve:<br /> * Reviewing lots of oslo sync patches<br /> * Tracking the current sync patches<br /> * Syncing over the low hanging fruit, modules that work without changing nova.<br /> * Reporting bugs to oslo team<br /> * Working with oslo team to figure out how to deal with backwards<br /> incompatible changes<br /> * Update nova code or make oslo module backwards compatible<br /> * Track all this<br /> * Create a roadmap for other projects to follow (re: documentation)<br /><br /> I am looking for volunteers to help with this effort, any takers?</blockquote>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size: small;">I'm happy to help as well. I always try to help with oslo syncs any time I'm made aware of problems anyway.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size: small;">What is our first step here? Get the low-hanging fruit syncs proposed all at once? Do them individually (taking into consideration the module deps, of course)? If we're going to try to get this done for Icehouse then we probably need to start ASAP.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size: small;">We are going to want someone from the team working on the db modules to participate as well, since we know that's one area where the API has diverged some (although we did take backwards compatibility into account). Victor, can you help find us a volunteer?</div>
