Hi everyone: I'd like to follow up on this effort, it's stalled for a while and there hasn't been much feedback from the mailing list. Perhaps any community members would like to chime in on this? Thanks, Mohammed On Mon, Mar 11, 2019 at 12:08 PM Lance Bragstad <lbragstad@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi everyone.
For quite sometime, there has been work on an effort of moving forward with building 'constellations' however this effort has stalled out for a few months since. It looks like we've tried a few times to get this document done
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/180112/ [3y9m ago, creating compute starter kit, by sdague] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/565466/ [7m ago, draft for scientific computing but in `governance`] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/586212/3 [6m ago, draft for compute starter constillation, by dims]
Do we want to continue this effort (do we see value in it right now)? Does the community find it a useful document to publish and does anyone feel like they can pick it up?
There doesn't seem to be much momentum around that. Here is a bit more context to kickstart the discussion:
Here is the part of the "2019 TC vision" that describes constellations:
https://governance.openstack.org/tc/resolutions/20170404-vision-2019.html#na...
As I see it, there were two key goals in there. First is to get the TC (and contributors in general) to wear more of a product manager hat and be more involved in defining common groups of OpenStack components matching a use case. The other is to expose those constructs more widely than just on the marketing website -- make them first-level objects that users interact with (in particular in documentation).
From what I vaguely remember about these conversations in the past, wasn't testing and validation of each constellation one of the harder parts to figure out?
