After a year break I'd like to announce my PTL candidacy +for Mistral in Train cycle. + +In the last two years we've been mainly focused on improving Mistral +performance and the reason for this was that some big users began to adopt +it for their production needs. The amount of work done in this area was +huge and the result is orders of magnitude boost for a number of use cases. + +Although much was done and the core of the technology is pretty mature now, +there's still a lot ahead: + +1. Continue to improve performance (e.g. "join" tasks) +2. Make the technology more product-like. That is, eliminating obvious gaps + in the documentation (inconsistent structure, lack of tutorials, etc.), + installation and configuration tools, tools for developing custom actions + and functions easier and plugging them in easier. The ultimate goal here + is to make sure that a new user can start using the technology within + minutes, and the experience should be as positive as possible. + +Another thing that I'd like to do is to attract more talented and qualified +contributors, i.e. to make the project community stronger. So if one has +interest in working on Mistral we're always open and ready to help witn +getting up to speed. + +Most likely, not all of the things mentioned above will be done in Train +but I want to make sure we finally started addressing #2 in a more serious +way than before. + +The best way to get in touch with us is IRC channel #openstack-mistral or the +openstack-discuss mailing list (with [mistral] tag in email subject). + +Renat
