<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I believe there should be broader representation on the TC. We are growing the OpenStack ecosystem. Let's make sure horizontal teams and diverse parts of the ecosystem are represented more directly. I understand concerns
of scaling were the reason for moving from the TC made up of all PTLs (I question that assertion), but the sacrifice so far has been diversity. I feel current TC members are exceptionally capable and take a broad viewpoint, but there are limits of how well
that works. Let's represent broader swaths of our ecosystem in the technical leadership.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I think growing the OpenStack ecosystem is fantastic. As a developer and the PTL of a project that tries to span across most of that ecosystem it also worries me a bit too. I think we need to focus on how the newer and
older parts of our ecosystem work together. How do we manage all the horizontal needs this introduces without going to the extremes of just scaling existing horizontal efforts because that won't work. And pushing all horizontal work on the individual projects
is not appropriate because that yields chaos.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Finally, I believe the TC needs to be more active in guiding overall direction of OpenStack and problem resolution. I'm not suggesting a dictatorship of course. But let's set a direction, overall release goals for OpenStack
and help enable and drive them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

place it is now.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
