<span class="author-a-03z85zz78zm0leez81zz69zz73zwgz73zd" style="margin: 0px; padding: 1px 0px; cursor: auto;">With the change in mission statement [1], that now provides a direction for other services to upload and discover data assets using Glance, it would
be my focus to enable new features like 'Artifacts' to merge smoothly into master. This is a paradigm change in the way Glance is consumed and would be my priority to see this through. In addition, Glance is supporting

through would be my next priority.</span></div>

<span class="author-a-03z85zz78zm0leez81zz69zz73zwgz73zd" style="margin: 0px; padding: 1px 0px; cursor: auto;">In addition to these, there are a few other challenges which Glance project faces - review/feedback time, triaging ever growing bug list, BP 'validation
and followup' etc. I have some ideas to develop more momentum in each of these processes. With the advent of the Artifacts feature, new developers would be contributing to Glance. I would like to encourage and work with them become core members sooner than
later. Also, there are many merge propositions which become stale due to lack of reviews from core-reviewers. My plan is to have bi-weekly sync-ups with the core and driver members to keep the review cycle active. As a good learning lesson from Juno, I would
like to work closely with all the developers and involved core reviewers to know their sincere intent of accomplishing a feature within the scope of release timeline. There are some really talented people involved in Glance and I would like to keep synthesizing
the ecosystem to enable everyone involved to do their best.</span></div>
