I am interested in Poppy. How can I get involved?

What CDN Providers does Poppy work with?

What features does Poppy support?

How will you handle offering feature X?

Will you be applying for Openstack Incubation?

Incubation is not the focus currently for the Poppy Team. When the community feels the time is right, we will apply for Incubation.

Why did you choose the name "Poppy"

A play on the words "PoP" and "Py".

  • "PoP" or "Points of Presence" is a common term for the locations where a CDN provider has a presence.
  • "Py" represents Python - that language of choice for Poppy.
