[openstack-dev] [omni] Has the Platform9's hybrid multicloud project been abandoned?
Hello All, I'm trying to figure out if the project openstack/omni https://github.com/openstack/omni has been abandoned or superseded by another project, as it is no longer updated (at least not in the last year). Generally speaking, which is, if any, a project that aims at the same goal? In other words, which way should hybrid cloud be approached in Openstack? Do you have any idea/advice?

Hi Andrea, Omni has not been abandoned by Platform9. We're still developing Omni internally, and are working to open source additional code as well as improve docs so that others may more easily test & contribute. With that said, I too would be interested in hearing how others are enabling, or looking to enable, hybrid cloud use cases with OpenStack. I'm not aware of any other projects with similar goals as Omni, however its possible I just haven't been looking in the right places.

It sounds like you're approaching this using an internal design process, so you may like to check: https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/opens.html The most recent commit was over a year ago, so it's understandably confusing to have an apparently unmaintained project, hosted under the openstack github org, which doesn't actually follow our comunity design/development process?
With that said, I too would be interested in hearing how others are enabling, or looking to enable, hybrid cloud use cases with OpenStack. I'm not aware of any other projects with similar goals as Omni, however its possible I just haven't been looking in the right places.
Having design discussions in the open, and some way for others in the community to understand the goals and roadmap of the project is really the first step in engaging folks for this sort of discussion IME.

To be clear, it's not an official project so they're not _obliged_ to follow the four opens. As long as the code is technically Open Source then it's up to them whether they want to succeed or fail at building a community.

Yes, this is a confusing aspect of getting rid of the sourceforge namespace. Perhaps things will improve with the forthcoming OpenDev branding.

+1000 cheers, Zane.
