This is a paradigm change in the way Glance is consumed and would be my priority to see this through. In addition, Glance is supporting a few new features like async workers and metadef, as of Juno that could be improved in terms of bugs and their maintainability. Seeing this through would be my next priority.

With the advent of the Artifacts feature, new developers would be contributing to Glance. I would like to encourage and work with them become core members sooner than later. Also, there are many merge propositions which become stale due to lack of reviews from core-reviewers. My plan is to have bi-weekly sync-ups with the core and driver members to keep the review cycle active. As a good learning lesson from Juno, I would like to work closely with all the developers and involved core reviewers to know their sincere intent of accomplishing a feature within the scope of release timeline. There are some really talented people involved in Glance and I would like to keep synthesizing the ecosystem to enable everyone involved to do their best.
