Open Stack

Greetings OpenStack community,

Today's meeting was very brief as both cdent and dtantsur were out.
There were no major items of discussion, but we did acknowledge the
efforts of the GraphQL proof of concept work[7] being led by Gilles
Dubreuil. This work continues to make progress and should provide an
interesting data point for the possibiity of future GraphQL usages.

In addition to the light discussion there was also one guideline
update that was merged this week, and a small infrastructure-related
patch that was merged.

As always if you're interested in helping out, in addition to coming
to the meetings, there's also:

* The list of bugs [5] indicates several missing or incomplete guidelines.
* The existing guidelines [2] always need refreshing to account for
changes over time. If you find something that's not quite right,
submit a patch [6] to fix it.
* Have you done something for which you think guidance would have made
things easier but couldn't find any? Submit a patch and help others
[6].

# Highlighting your API impacting issues

If you seek further review and insight from the API SIG about APIs
that you are developing or changing, please address your concerns in
an email to the OpenStack developer mailing list[1] with the tag
"[api]" in the subject. In your email, you should include any relevant
reviews, links, and comments to help guide the discussion of the
specific challenge you are facing.

To learn more about the API SIG mission and the work we do, see our
wiki page [4] and guidelines [2].

Thanks for reading and see you next week!
