Release Naming for R

• It’s time to pick a name for our “R” release.
• The assoicated summit will be in Vancouver, so the geographic location has been chosen as “British Colombia”.
• Rules:
  • Each release name must start with the letter of the ISO basic Latin alphabet following the initial letter of the previous release, starting with the initial release of “Austin”. After “Z”, the next name should start with “A” again.
  • The name must be composed only of the 26 characters of the ISO basic Latin alphabet. Names which can be transliterated into this character set are also acceptable.
  • The name must refer to the physical or human geography of the region encompassing the location of the OpenStack design summit for the corresponding release. The exact boundaries of the geographic region under consideration must be declared before the opening of nominations, as part of the initiation of the selection process.
  • The name must be a single word with a maximum of 10 characters. Words that describe the feature should not be included, so “Foo City” or “Foo Peak” would both be eligible as “Foo”.

Moving Gnocchi out

• The project Gnocchi which has been tagged independent since it’s inception has potential outside of OpenStack.
• Being part of the big tent helped the project be built, but there is a belief that it restrains its adoption outside of OpenStack.
• The team has decided to move it out of OpenStack [6].
  • In addition out of the OpenStack infrastructure.
• Gnocchi will continue thrive and be used by OpenStack such as Ceilometer.
