      How to Effectively Contribute to An Open Source Project Such As
      OpenStack Neutron
      <http://www.siliconloons.com/how-to-effectively-contribute-to-an-open-source-project-such-as-openstack-neutron/>

As Neutron’s Tech Lead (PTL), Kyle Mestery
<http://www.siliconloons.com/> has been mostly heads down working to
ensure the Neutron project has a successful Juno release. Increasingly,
and especially near OpenStack Juno milestone deadlines
<https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Juno_Release_Schedule>, he’s forced to
make hard choices and start turning new features down in order to focus
on shipping good quality code for Juno. He sent an email
<http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-July/041136.html>
to the openstack-dev mailing list this morning addressing the pressure
his team is under. He also wrote a longer blog post to expand upon that
email.


      OpenStack Failures <https://dague.net/2014/07/22/openstack-failures/>

Last week the bulk of the brain power of the OpenStack QA and Infra
teams were all in one room, in real life. This was a great opportunity
to spend a bunch of time diving deep into the current state of the Gate,
figure out what’s going on, and how we might make things better. Sean
Dague <https://dague.net/>, Jim Blair, wElizabeth K. Joseph
<http://princessleia.com/journal/?p=9574> and bmwiedemann
<http://lizards.opensuse.org/2014/07/23/openstack-infraqa-meetup/> wrote
a summary of the week.


      OpenStack plays Tetris : Stacking and Spreading a full private
      cloud
      <http://openstack-in-production.blogspot.com/2014/07/openstack-plays-tetris-stacking-and.html>

CERN is running a large scale private cloud which is providing compute
resources for physicists analysing the data from the Large Hadron
Collider. With 100s of VMs created per day, the OpenStack scheduler has
to perform a Tetris like job to assign the different flavors of VMs
falling to the specific hypervisors.


      Juno Updates – <https://blog-nkinder.rhcloud.com/?p=111>Security
      <https://blog-nkinder.rhcloud.com/?p=111>, Authentication and
      other neat things <https://blog-nkinder.rhcloud.com/?p=111>

There is a lot of development work going on in Juno in security related
areas. Nathan Kinder <https://blog-nkinder.rhcloud.com/> wrote up some
of the more notable efforts that are under way in Keystone, Barbican,
Kite and other projects.


    The Road To Paris 2014 – Deadlines and Resources

During the Paris Summit there will be a working session for the Women of

complete this very short survey
<https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/V39BL7H>to provide input for the group.
