>Why
        you should be reviewing more OpenStack code
>Icehouse 3 is upon us, and as someone that is on a bunch of
        core review teams, it means a steady drum beat of everyone
        asking how do they get core reviewers to review their code. Sean
        Dague explains quite well why you should be doing code reviews.
>Trusted
          Cloud computing with Intel TXT: The challenge
>In today’s connected environments, attacks on compute
        infrastructure are ubiquitous. Major players have been
        compromised by hackers and malware, with damages inflicted both
        to their reputation and their business. Protecting the
        infrastructure from external and internal threats is an
        important part of operating production grade cloud environments. Christian
          Huebner introduces how OpenStack integrates with TXT.
>Our
          Cloud in Havana
>Upgrading a nearly 50,000 core cloud from Grizzly to Havana can
        be done with a series of steps, each of which can have short
        periods of reduced functionality but with constant VM
        availability.  Tim Bell tells us how CERN upgraded its OpenStack cloud.
>Status
          of the OpenStack port to Python 3
>Python 3 has been around for about 5 years, and we have  excellent
          reasons to make sure OpenStack runs well on it.
        Unfortunately, this is not the case. In his article,  Cyril
          Roelandt explains what works, what doesn’t, and what  you can do to help.
>OpenStack
          selected as mentoring organization for Google Summer of Code
          2014
>OpenStack has been selected to be a mentoring organization for
        Google Summer of Code 2014. Thanks to the hard work of many
        contributors we could  join
          GSoC for the first time.
