I think your assessment of specific to some projects is accurate.
For instance, for Neutron Kyle wants to continue to be responsible for
this role. Fine by me as long as I have a name. For Cinder, Jay Bryant
attends the third party meeting and gives updates, Ramy has put in the
most work on CIs and is a great resource for answering questions and
Duncan holds the hammer on what stays in master but the third party
meetings are too late for him to attend most times, so he co-ordinates
with Jay. Again as long as I know who to talk to. For Nova? Well right
now Nova is kind of hit and miss so I would appreciate a name there.
Other projects? If you have vendors or ci accounts testing your
projects, please get in touch.
Thanks,
Anita.
