Hello everyone, I would like to announce my candidacy for PTL of the Cinder project for the Antelope cycle. I served as the PTL for Cinder during the Zed development cycle and targeted some of the areas which were lacking attention and worked on improving them like: 1. Review Quality Proposing the Efficient Review Guidelines[1] to help new contributors improve the quality of reviews. 2. Security Vulnerabilities Triaged the open security issues during the first mid cycle[2]. There are still areas which could be improved upon like 3rd Party Compliance checks and Cinder driver documentation which are good candidates of work items for the next development cycle and I look forward to actively work on them. Apart from that, there were deadlines which could have been better handled which I would like to incorporate in my planning skills so we get things merged in time and we won't have to extend deadlines frequently. Overall, I feel it was a good learning experience being PTL for the first time and I'm thankful for all the support I've had from the team, not to mention the advice and help from Brian while making critical decisions, and Hopefully I will take the learnings to be a better PTL this time.
