Hello tripleo o/ in case you missed in, the OpenStack Y cycle election season is soon upon us starting 17th August [1] As previously mentioned in tripleo irc meetings I do not intend to run for a third cycle as ptl. I think it is healthy for the project to have new energy and ideas brought by a new ptl and we are very fortunate to have many capable candidates in our community who have not previously occupied that role. I'd like to encourage anyone who is considering this to read the info from [1] and in particular prepare a nomination [2]. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. If you *are* thinking about it bear in mind there are many experienced people around that can and will help so ... how badly can it go ! ;) regards, marios [1] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/2021-August/024093.ht...
