OpenStack DefCore Enters Execution Phase. Help!
OpenStack DefCore Committee has established the principles and first artifacts required for vendors using the OpenStack trademark. Over the next release cycle, we will be applying these to the Icehouse and Juno releases. Rob will be doing two sessions about DefCore next week (will be recorded): Tues Dec 16 at 9:45 am PST- OpenStack Podcast #14 with Jeff Dickey and Thurs Dec 18 at 9:00 am PST – Online Meetup about DefCore with Rafael Knuth.
Keeping up to date with OpenStack Blueprints
OpenStack is a living product – and because it is community driven – changes are being proposed almost constantly. The specifications approved in each project are published on http://specs.openstack.org as html pages and RSS feeds. Maish Saidel-Keesing compiled an OPML file with all the current projects that you can add to your favorite RSS reader.
