Hi all,
I first wanted to thank Rico for his ongoing commitment to the project over the last cycles. He has provided lots of guidance and help to the Heat project for a long time and his contribution deserves recognition.
I am proposing my candidacy for Heat PTL during the Antelope cycle.
I have worked with the Heat project for several years both as a user and more recently over the last 2 years as a contributor. I see great potential in the project for our users and look forward to continuing work in order to support features and functionality of the project.
Some of my objectives for the next few cycles are:
Remove the dependencies on legacy python-*client libraries and instead shift to the openstacksdk client library.
While the legacy libraries have served us well, they are starting to show their limitations and the delta in servicibilty will only increase as each project moves towards leveraging the openstacksdk. So this change, while quite extensive will ensure future compatibility with the other OpenStack project teams.
Continue ensuring Heat supports the most up-to-date and recent features provided by each project.
To ensure Heat is the default and best choice for our users, we need to ensure we are able to leverage the latest available features from the complimentary OpenStack projects. This is an ongoing challenge to stay up-to-date with the changes each cycle and work towards implementing them in Heat.
Thank you all for you consideration, and I look forward to the next cycle and continuing to work with you all.
Regards, Brendan
