A lot of people, especially contributors and organizations that are new to OpenStack, are seeking guidance on how to make useful, strategic contributions to OpenStack. While some of those strategic priorities are long-standing and well-known, in the absence of a formal list blessed by the Technical Committee a lot of contributors are turning to Stackalytics to guess what a useful contribution is. Beyond wasted resources and being annoying to core reviewers, this results in a failure to drive those new contributors to what could be extremely useful contributions, and prevents them to step up in the community. In order to address that, this change establishes a "top 5" list of areas where help is wanted. At this stage we'll leave it up to Foundation staff to promote (through keynotes, web pages and blog articles) the contributors and organizations who step up to help in those areas. This list will send a clear signal to folks who are looking at things like Stackalytics and tell them where exactly their effort is valuable for the community as a whole. Folks on the Technical Committee will help guide the work, monitor progress and report back to the wider audience.

This repository contains OpenStack Technical Committee reference documents and tracks official resolutions voted by the committee.
Directory structure:
- reference/
Reference documents which need to be revised over time. Some motions will just directly result in reference doc changes.
- resolutions/
When the motion does not result in a change in a reference doc, it can be expressed as a resolution. Those must be named YYYYMMDD-short-name with YYYYMMDD being the proposal date in order to allow basic sorting.
- goals/
Documentation for OpenStack community-wide goals, organized by release cycle. These pages will be updated with project status info over time, and if goals are revised.
See https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/TechnicalCommittee for details.
