> Hi Weidong,

This looks like an excellent project and we (the openstack-ansible project)
love to assist you with the integration of Compass with openstack-ansible
(aka os-ansible-deployment).

I'd like to discuss with your team how we can work together to facilitate
Compass' consumption of the playbooks/roles we produce in a suitable way
and will try to attend the next meeting as I seem to have missed this
week's meeting). We'd like to understand the project's needs so that we can
work towards defined goals to accommodate them, while also maintaining our
stability for other downstream consumers.

We also invite you to attend our next meeting on Thu 16:00 UTC in
#openstack-meeting-4 - details are here for reference:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/openstack-ansible#Community_Meeting

Looking forward to working with you!

Best regards,

Jesse
