Open Stack

First I wanted to thank all of the TC and User Committee members who developed and populated tags for projects.  We want to utilize this data to better educate users on the state of various OpenStack projects.  In addition, we've pulled critical information from the user survey to provide insight which will help users make more informed decisions on their configurations.

Today I wanted to share some of the visual representations of that data in what we’re calling the Project Navigator.  It is is still a work in progress, but I think it show how powerful this information will be in the hands of our users. In addition to detailed information on each project, there are several “sample configs” of typical combinations of projects for OpenStack powered clouds for various use cases, based on real user survey data and case studies.

The initial screenshots are here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qi0ixj3lkotj223/ProjectNavigator.zip?dl=0
And a screencast of the current state of the Project Navigator is located here: http://www.screencast.com/t/zVTgrrdu5ZgW

We expect the initial version to be online next week during the Summit, as an update to openstack.org/software, and welcome feedback at any time!

Thanks again for the hard work on the tags.  As new tags are introduced or old tags are updated, we can start to pull that information into the Project Navigator.
