Hi,

I would like to selectively respond to the number of goals per cycle question.

A possible direction could be to forget the "one cycle goal" thing and allow to finish the

goals in a longer time frame. From "management" perspective the important is to have

a fix number of goals per cycle to avoid overallocation of people.

Another approach could be to attach a number, a difficulty feeling or similar to the

proposed goals to make it easier to select them, and avoid to choose 2 hard-to-do goal

for one cycle.

This numbering can be done by project teams/PTLs whoever has the insight for the projects.

Example: zuulv3 migration can be a hard to do goal as affects the whole gating of a project

with hard coordination between projects.

Add healthcheck API is much simpler as can be done without affecting the life of a whole

project, or the community.

Hi All

It is that time of year / release again - and we need to choose the
community goals for Wallaby.

Myself and Nate looked over the list of goals [1][2][3], and we are
suggesting one of the following:

- Finish moving legacy python-*client CLIs to python-openstackclient
- Move from oslo.rootwrap to oslo.privsep
- Implement the API reference guide changes
- All API to provide a /healthcheck URL like Keystone (and others) provide

Some of these goals have champions signed up already, but we need to
make sure they are still available to do them. If you are interested in
helping drive any of the goals, please speak up!

We need to select goals in time for the new release cycle - so please
reply if there is goals you think should be included in this list, or
not included.

Next steps after this will be helping people write a proposed goal
and then the TC selecting the ones we will pursue during Wallaby.

Additionally, we have traditionally selected 2 goals per cycle -
however with the people available to do the work across projects
Nate and I briefly discussed reducing that to one for this cycle.

What does the community think about this?

Thanks,

Graham
