I know there is Keystone as the recommended complex auth solution for the OpenStack family. But swauth is useful wsgi middleware especially for smaller installation and development. > > We (as Seznam.cz company) have permission from swauth author (https://github.com/gholt) to take it over and continue in development/extending/fixing issues. So I will appreciate if swauth could become an official OpenStack project and use gerrit for code review, autotests and other great features to keep it "alive and health". > > Will you be OK with it? > > I want to know your opinion before create the project (http://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/creators.html). > > Thanks for reply. > > > -- > Peter Lisák > peter.lisak at firma.seznam.cz<mailto:peter.lisak at firma.seznam.cz> > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > OpenStack-Infra mailing list > OpenStack-Infra at lists.openstack.org > http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-infra > Hello Peter, The infrastructure team maintains the tooling for developers to develop projects. The body that has input on the officialness of any given project is the Technical Committee: http://www.openstack.org/foundation/tech-committee/ It might be worth some of your time to peruse this site: http://governance.openstack.org/ particularly here: http://governance.openstack.org/reference/new-projects-requirements.html Also as something to consider, we are just about to head to Tokyo (some of us are there already) next week for summit: https://www.openstack.org/summit/ Trends have shown weeks during summit are remarkably slow for email traffic, so keep that in mind should you kick off an email discussion wtih the tc right now. Thank you, Anita.
