Governance/CoreDefinition/Meeting20131203

Minutes: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/DefCoreElephant.1

We agreed to an agressive timeline for this cycle:

• must-pass tests to be approved (as a slate) at the next summit
• must-pass test slate to be recommended a month before the summit (March)
• must-pass test draft list for discussion formed a month before the slate (Feb)
• must-pass test criteria for selecting draft items a month before draft list (Jan)

We resolved:

• by-laws changes are not going to make it this election (we setup a subcomittee)
• will keep it going to get ahead for next cycle
• we believe we can work within the current documents, but there's a risk changes will be needed
• Eileen Evans is chairing the subcommittee, and will coordinate with the foundation staff as needed
• We are spinning off a subcommittee to work on test selection critiera
• while we are only focused on "must-pass," we decided that test lexicon will be
• must-pass - interoperability contract (fully portable)
• commons - extended interoperability (likely portable)
• other items will be determined future

We made some recommendations for RefStack requirements

• users will be validated against the OpenStack user list
• users may upload test results (it is not required to have RefStack run the API tests externally)
• we will collect additional optional data using "tags" such as installation size, os, features, projects, etc
• we will reset the production database in Febuary to clear test data

We showed progress on RefStack

• Tempest was broken at the time of the meeting and distracting peopke
• much help is needed for tempest

Risk Items:

• We need participation from some TC members to avoid having to rehash key decisions later
