I felt like OpenStack didn't have enough projects, so here's another one.
During the summit I feel like I'm repeatedly having the same conversations
with different groups about bespoke approaches to operational tasks, and
wrapping these in a project might be a way to promote collaboration on them.
Off the top of my head there's half a dozen things that might belong here:
- Packaging tooling (spec files/fpm script/whatever)
- (Ansible/other) playbooks for common tasks
- Log aggregation (Logstash/Splunk) filters and tagging
- Monitoring (Nagios) checks
- Ops dashboards
There's also things that <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>might<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b> belong here but maybe not:
- Chef/Puppet/Ansible/Salt OpenStack config management modules
<span __postbox-detected-content="__postbox-detected-date" class="__postbox-detected-content __postbox-detected-date" displaystyle="display: inline; font-size: inherit; padding: 0pt;">Today</span> these are generally either wrapped up in products from various
companies, or in each company's github repo.
For those of you who are still around at the design summit and don't have
plans for <span __postbox-detected-content="__postbox-detected-date" class="__postbox-detected-content __postbox-detected-date" displaystyle="display: inline; font-size: inherit; padding: 0pt;">tomorrow,</span> how about we <span __postbox-detected-content="__postbox-detected-date" class="__postbox-detected-content __postbox-detected-date" displaystyle="display: inline; font-size: inherit; padding: 0pt;">meet on Friday</span> morning at the large white
couch in the meridian foyer <span __postbox-detected-content="__postbox-detected-date" class="__postbox-detected-content __postbox-detected-date" displaystyle="display: inline; font-size: inherit; padding: 0pt; color: rgb(80, 80, 80);">at 9am?</span> Let's see what we can sort out.
Thanks!

the outcome of this discussion shared back to the list. Though I don't
know that this would be appropriate for a full-blown OpenStack project
(in the traditional sense) you are definitely correct that people need
more prescriptive guidance around these areas.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Richard
