Hi Avishay:

In opensource we have less of an emphasis on specifications and more of
an emphasis on discussion. Yes I can point you to at least one
discussion so far on log hosting and invite you and members of your
group to more discussions on the topic.

Currently we have this documentation around third party testing
requirements: http://ci.openstack.org/third_party.html
Also in light of recent discussions there are two patches in review for
changes to that document: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/101013/ and
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/101227/

We also have a weekly third party meeting that takes place on Mondays at
1800 utc in the #openstack-meeting channel on the freenode network where
we discuss current practices, any questions, identify issues and work to
address them as well as share information among openstack programs and
third party ci systems: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/ThirdParty

Opensource is a living entity and the more you participate in the
discussions that result in documentation, the more you have a say in
what happens and the better informed you are.

The main feature for the hosting is that it most closely matches the
workflow that the developers already use with gerrit. The more familiar
you are with gerrit, the easier it is to get hosting right. Now we will
create and amend documents as we need to to refine communication around
hosting of logs (as well as all other aspects of third party ci) but the
docs will only ever be looking to address behaviour that we never
imagined anyone would do (or omit) in the first place. I strongly
encourage you to participate in the third party meetings as well as in
the irc channel for the project you are testing to talk with the
developers who are getting the comments from your system on their
patches and hear from them what you system needs to do to make them happy.

Also if I email you in future and cc the openstack-infra mailing list,
please cc the openstack-infra mailing list in your reply. I have done so
in my reply.

Thanks Avishay, I hope to see you or another representative of your
third party ci account in the third party meeting in a few hours,
Anita.
