    Highlights of the week


      The future of Incubation and Core
      <http://markmail.org/message/hmc2cmf3wycrqhpe>

Incubation is currently an OpenStack project status that grants a 
promising project more access to OpenStack shared resources, especially 
in the CI, release management and QA space. The level of maturity 
reached by OpenStack requires revising the concept of 'Core project' and 
the incubation process. Join the discussion and help the Technical 
Committee form an opinion for the Foundation's Board.

      OpenStack Image Service -- Grizzly Planning
      <http://bcwaldon.cc/2012/11/06/openstack-image-service-grizzly.html>

The primary objective of Glance is to publish a catalog of virtual 
machine images. Rather than own users' image data, Glance simply tracks 
where that data resides. Glance owns the metadata provided by users. 
Brian Waldon summarizes the plans for Glance over the Grizzly release cycle.
