OpenStack DefCore Process Flow: Community Feedback Cycles for Core [6 points + chart] http://robhirschfeld.com/2014/09/02/defcore-process-flow/

DefCore https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/DefCoreCommitteeis an OpenStack Foundation Board managed process “that sets base requirements by defining 1) capabilities, 2) code and 3) must-pass tests http://robhirschfeld.com/2014/08/12/patchwork-onion/for all OpenStack™ products. This definition usescommunity resources and involvementto drive interoperability by creating the minimum standards for products labeled OpenStack™.” Rob Hirschfeld http://robhirschfeld.com/details in a blog post what “community resources and involvement” entails. Check out the upcoming DefCore Community Meetings Sep 10 & Sep 11. http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-September/045229.html
