We had our first meeting today.  The notes from our discussion are below.  Thanks to the people who joined!

 

We will meet again on June 20th at 6:30AM PDT (1330 UTC)

 

Agenda (on https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/stx-first-contact)

·         Matthew from the OpenStack FC SIG joined!

§  www.openstack.org/community

§  docs.openstack.org/contributors

§  Some simple things like knowing which ports to open (IRC, gerrit, etc..) can be helpful

§  In the past we saw many companies assigning people to be full time contributors but we don't see that any more

§  Now we are seeing people who want to work on OpenStack but it isn't part of their job

·         They need access to bigger machines / clouds which can be hard for them (and the community)

§  All can make important contributions to the project - code, docs, translations, bugs reports/fixes, feedback, etc...

·         Glenn - I was on a call yesterday with a company that is very interested in getting involved in STX.  

·         Goals and mission - did not cover

·         Meeting time (this slot is available bi-weekly)

·         Next steps - did not directly cover
