      The All New OpenStack Travel Support Program
      <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/07/the-all-new-openstack-travel-support-program/>

The OpenStack Foundation announces the availability of travel grants
under the OpenStack Travel Support Program. The program’s aim is to
facilitate participation of key contributors to the OpenStack Design
Summit covering costs for travel and accommodation. The Travel Support
Program is based on the promise of Open Design
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Open>, one of the founding principles
upon which the OpenStack project is built.


      Blow Out the Candles – OpenStack Turns 3!
      <http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/07/blow-out-the-candles-openstack-turns-3/>

OpenStack will celebrate it’s third birthday July 19, and we’re
celebrating this month!  In three short years, Openstack has truly
emerged as the center of cloud innovation, with hundreds of companies
around the world relying on OpenStack to run their business. OpenStack
is maturing, it’s coming of age and new users being announced every week
(Fidelity, Comcast, Best Buy, Bloomberg). Over the past three years,
we’ve also seen OpenStack grow internationally. There are now over 40
global user groups and more than 10,000 community members across 121
countries. And we’ve recently crossed the 1,000 authors threshold to the
code base.  This calls for a big toast to the OpenStack community!


      A tool for watching Zuul and Jenkins
      <http://www.danplanet.com/blog/2013/07/10/a-tool-for-watching-zuul-and-jenkins/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=a-tool-for-watching-zuul-and-jenkins>

Dan Smith <http://www.danplanet.com/blog> wrote a very hacky text
“dashboard” that merges the information from Gerrit and Zuul, and
provides a periodically-refreshed view of what is going on. The tool is
useful to keep close watch of patches, both to know when they’re close
to merging, as well as to know early when they’re failing a test.
Catching something early and pushing a fix will kill the job currently
in progress and start over with the new patch. This is a more efficient
use of resources and lowers the total amount of time before Jenkins will
vote on the patch in such a case.


      Save Space: the final frontier – Erasure Codes with OpenStack
      Swift
      <http://swiftstack.com/blog/2013/07/10/erasure-codes-with-openstack-swift/>

The Swift team announced an initiative to introduce erasure codes in
OpenStack Swift. This initiative enables deployers to store data with
erasure coding instead of or in addition to Swift’s 3-replica model.
