CoreOS, a good operating system for your OpenStack controllers
<http://sebastien-han.fr/blog/2013/10/10/coreos-a-good-operating-system-for-your-openstack-controllers/>
Sébastien Han <http://sebastien-han.fr/> explains why in his opinion
CoreOS is an excellent operation system for your OpenStack controllers.
Even if CoreOS is not mature enough to be put in production, the
technology has a lot of advantages and features that are worth exploring.
The Growing Diversity inside OpenStack Object Storage
<http://www.openstack.org/blog/2013/10/the-growing-diversity-inside-openstack-object-storage/>
Of all OpenStack projects, Object Storage (also known as Swift) has
always been considered mature or, in other words, a place where new
things rarely happen. The good news is that a lot of exciting things are
happening in Swift
<http://activity.openstack.org/data/display/OPNSTK2/swift>, specifically
around the community participation and growing ecosystem.
Improving the OpenStack Documentation Build Tools
<http://jaegerandi.blogspot.com/2013/10/improving-openstack-documentation-build.html>
The tools for building and checking the OpenStack Documentation manuals
has been improved with a few different options for fine-grained control.
The new tools are run locally and as jenkins jobs allowing writers
submitting a patch to get quickly an overview about what fails.
