OpenStack bio
I was one of the original authors of nova when it was still part of the NASA Nebula project. OpenStack has been my life for the last 2 years. I was elected to the PPB during the first election, and then elected as the PTL for Nova. I have been serving as the PTL for the last year. There is a huge amount of work involved in being a PTL for such a large project, including managing blueprints and scheduling, bug triaging, mailing list debates, working with partner companies, and answering mailing list questions. In addition to these managerial tasks, I work on all aspects of the nova code base, and spend lots of time answering questions on IRC and launchpad.
