We gave those out and more at our first public OpenStack Design Summit during a break from jamming on Rock Band Thursday night. Chief Architect Rick Clark and I (Content Stacker Anne Gentle) wanted to recognize members of the community who made a significant impact on the Austin release through a variety of contributions. Our community is in its early stages and going through growth spurts, and these members found ways to build OpenStack up during a busy release cycle.<\/p>\n<p>So, please join us in congratulating these community members:<\/p>\n<h3>Developer Community Awards<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Vish Ishaya<\/em> &#8211; Vish was rewarded for submitting the biggest patch (9,000 lines or so) that also broke the most stuff. We like breakers as long as they can fix what they break.<\/li>\n<li><em>Alex Polvi <\/em>&#8211; We wanted to recognize all of Alex&#8217;s work building community ties and helping us realize the vision of open source for clouds by being a strong community builder.<\/li>\n<li><em>Jay Pipes<\/em> &#8211; Jay gets recognized for so much Karma in the Launchpad system that Rick is practically suspicious. Just kidding, he has answered questions, submitted patches, fixed bugs, and in general been a huge push behind support for OpenStack from a developer&#8217;s perspective.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Content Stacker Community Awards<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Stephen Milton<\/em> &#8211; He took the <a href=\"http:\/\/swift.openstack.org\/development_saio.html\">Swift all-in-one instructions<\/a> and tested and created a multiple-server instruction set that Chuck Thier then edited based on the Rackspace Cloud Files experience. It was a great mini-sprint effort.<\/li>\n<li><em>David Pravec <\/em>&#8211; He is always helpful answering questions in IRC, plus he created outlines for three manuals for Nova &#8211; Administration, Deployment, and Cloud-Users. He also created polished diagrams that are worth 1,000 words. Each.<\/li>\n<li><em>Anthony Young <\/em>&#8211; We recognize Anthony and the Anso labs team effort to completely refresh the Nova developer documentation and docstrings. Look for the fruits of their labor at <a href=\"http:\/\/nova.openstack.org\">nova.openstack.org<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We couldn&#8217;t build what we&#8217;ve built so far without all the combined efforts of all our developers, supporters, and documentation contributors. Take a minute to give these guys a high five with us.<\/p>\n<p>And then get back to Rock Band.<\/p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/m.flickr.com\/#\/photos\/pinhole\/5167959057\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-310\" title=\"OpenStack Rock Band jam\" src=\"http:\/\/www.openstack.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/rockbandjam_markinterrante-300x225.png\" alt=\"Photo used with permission from Mark Interrante\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rewards, high fives, kudos, and good old fashioned handshakes.
