      Thinking about how to Implement OpenStack Core Definition
      <http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/10/04/implement-core/>

There have been a number of community discussions (OSCON
<http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/08/06/core-community-dialogue/>, SFO &
SA-TX) around the process for OpenStack Core definition
<http://robhirschfeld.com/2013/08/13/openstack-core-positions/>. We’re
continuing to get community feedback.  So what’s next?

      Easier upstreaming / back-porting of patch series with git
      <http://blog.adamspiers.org/2013/09/19/easier-upstreaming-with-git/>

Have you ever needed to port a selection of commits from one git
<http://git-scm.com/> branch to another, but without doing a full merge?
This is a common challenge and Adam Spiers <http://blog.adamspiers.org/>
spends some time explaining how to ease the pain.
