Open Stack

Tom - In support of helping to create impact from the feedback, I suggest we partner someone from the Product Work Group with each of the Moderators. The role of the PWG partner would be to identify/summarize the top 1-2 use cases, recruit a couple of operators to help flesh it out and then bring into the roadmap discussion.

Thoughts?

Subject: [Openstack-operators] Ops @ Vancouver Summit - agenda brainstorming

Hi all,

As you've no doubt guessed - the Ops Summit will return in Vancouver, and we need your help to work out what should be on the agenda.

If you're new: note that this is in addition to the operations (and
other) conference track's presentations. It's aimed at giving us a design-summit-style place to congregate, swap best practices, ideas and give feedback.


We've listened to feedback from the past events, especially Paris, and I'm delighted to report that from Vancouver on we're a fully integrated part of the actual design summit. No more random other hotels far away from things and dodgy signage put together at the last minute - it's time to go Pro :)


One biggest pieces of feedback we have regarding the organisation of these events so far is that you want to see direct action happen as a result of our discussions. We've had some success with this mid-cycle, for example:

* Rabbit - heartbeat patch merged [1], now listed as top 5 issue for ops
* OVS - recommendation for vswitch at least 2.1.2 [2]
* Nova Feedback - large range of action items [3]
* Security - raised priority on policy.json docs [4]

... just a few amoungst dozens.

However, we can continue to improve, so please - when you are suggesting sessions in the below etherpad please make sure you phrase them in a way that will result in _actions_ and _results_.



**********************************************************************

Please propose session ideas on:

https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/YVR-ops-meetup

ensuring you read the new instructions to make sessions 'actionable'.


**********************************************************************



The room allocation is still being worked out (all hail Thierry!), but the current thinking is that the general sessions will all be on one day (likely Tuesday), and the working groups will be distributed throughout the week.


More as it comes, and as always, further information about ops meetups and notes from the past can be found on the wiki @:

Regards,


Tom
