I am announcing my candidacy for Loci PTL. I stepped in as interim PTL during the previous cycle and was a member of the founding core team. Loci is a project for packaging OpenStack projects into lightweight Docker images. It's currently being used in OpenStack-Helm and StarlingX. We have a small team, a stable project, and low velocity, but still have a number of objectives to work towards in the next cycle. My agenda as PTL will include: * Adopting stable branches. There are enough recent dependency changes that require us to reevaulate our stance on stable branching. * Improving testing. Currently the only thing Loci tests are builds without any functional or integration testing. We will look at ways to run project tests and Tempest integrated tests against a small single node deployment[1] of OpenStack with Loci. I will also continue to encourage adoption of Loci and support use cases in container-based OpenStack deployments. Thank you for support, and if elected I look forward to representing the Loci team and the OpenStack community in the coming months. -Chris Hoge (hogepodge) [1] this, for example https://github.com/hogepodge/locistack
