I have spent too many years on OpenStack to have it +fail. I think a good place for me to contribute to the dream of keeping +OpenStack going strong is the TC. + +I started as an OpenStack Operator in the Essex era. The largest issue I had at +the time was deployment. I have spent a considerable amount of my time in +OpenStack working on deployment tools. Some publicly available, some not. All +of this time has kept me very close to all of the OpenStack projects. I have +to know them to deploy them. This closeness has also let me see problems arise +in and between the projects. I would like to help address those problems for +all of OpenStack. + +I have no agenda. I have no long standing company affiliations. OpenStack is +something I am passionate about. I do it in my free time. I run it at my house. +I just enjoy working with it and want to see it be as easy to use as possible. +With that I know OpenStack will continue to be successful. + +SamYaple
