VW_sorry - haven't been typing on keyboards for almost two weeks :)15:07
jamesmcarthurI'm just going to throw this out there. Should we consider restructuring the UC in some form or fashion?15:08
VW_We can15:09
*** josephrsandoval has joined #openstack-uc15:09
jamesmcarthurLooking back on our past agendas, there has not been a ton accomplished.  Much of the work has moved on to other groups and SIGs and we now have an actual operator as head of the TC.15:09
jamesmcarthurPart of the mission of the UC was to get better community representation, but it seems that goal may be accomplished.15:09
VW_probably want a few folks to help set some context/food for though15:09

*** studarus has joined #openstack-uc15:10
belmoreirajamescarthur can you elaborate in: "but it seems that goal may be accomplished"15:11
jamesmcarthurbelmoreira: I think initially there was a community divide b/w developers and operators. The UC was created to help bridge that gap and also give representation to operators and users.15:12
jamesmcarthurNow, with an operator as chair of the TC and Ops Meetups at least somewhat integrated with PTGs, I'd say the gap has been effectively bridged.15:13
jamesmcarthurWe have some very successful SIGs (Scientific SIG, Financial SIG, etc...) that are working directly with users and developers alike.15:14
jamesmcarthurAnd the Ops Meetup itself is largely run by the Ops Meetup WG with very little input from the UC.15:14
VW_Those are good points.15:16
jamesmcarthurAnd it seems, from the last PTG in Denver, that most of hte new pilot projects are more interested in an integrated version of the TC and UC for their communities.15:16
apricewe are actually starting to see something similar with the user survey with the TC adding questions and the project teams reviewing  the feedback directly in addition to the TC15:16
belmoreirathey are very good points but I still think there's a lot of room for the UC15:17
belmoreirathe TC having an operator it just happened. Doesn't mean that in the future ops will be represented there15:18
belmoreiraSIGs are doing great but I think the UC can have an active role to bridge them15:19
jamesmcarthurMy proposal would be to reach out to the TC and look at having some permanent user seats designated.15:19
jamesmcarthurThat's kind of off the top of my head, b/c I agree there's no guarantee of a permanent user representation.15:20
jamesmcarthurBut the UC was really created to address a community divide, and IMO that divide doesn't really exist any longer.15:20
jamesmcarthurI think the community has grown past it.15:20
VW_I agree with the divide being taken care of15:20
apriceare there any goals from the UC that yall feel are not being taken care of by one of the other existing groups?15:22
spotzI think we're still the interaction between OpenStack and the community at large not the community that contributes code. The divide between OPS and dev is nearly gone I think as ops have had to step in to fix things with less devs.15:23
belmoreiraunfortunately I don't feel that the "divide" as been taken care15:24
belmoreirain my ideal world we shouldn't need several meeting/events for ops/devs/users15:25
belmoreirathe change in the PTG in definitely positive15:25
belmoreirabut I believe much more can be done15:25
spotzWe had more users at times in the OSA room at the PTG then dev/cores15:27
apricei agree that more could be done to help bridge the groups, but I wonder if having two separate governances is achieving that at this stage.15:27
apricei guess what may be good is to revisit and redefine the UC goals and action items. because at this point, it feels like things are just paused15:28
VW_Yeah - I've been feeling a bit frustrated too.  The big thing we need to do is help continue the feedback loop. Only slow progress there. I also think the UC (as it's structured now) is a large difference in how the OpenStack project(s) are looked after versus the other OSF projects15:30
VW_So, one has to wonder if the rise of multiple tier 1 projects is a catalyst for rethinking "governance" so that there is a more similar approach across the board15:30
jamesmcarthurI don't think there needs to be the exact same governance across projects, but I do think there is some merit to creating the appearance of community by not artificially separating the two groups.15:33
spotzWhen we met with the other groups in Denver there main point was they didn't have users yet. But at the same time if we're not out there pushing helping bridge the gap do we need to be separate or have x seats on the TC15:33
apricewell the other projects do have users now and their users are talking directly to the technical leaders and developers which i think is a huge learning from openstack and kudos to the overall community15:36
apricewith the refreshing of the global ambassador program and increased representation from operators on the TC, i think that we are moving in the right direction15:37
jamesmcarthurRight. They're integrating the two groups from the get go, which I think is largely due to lessons learned from OpenStack.15:37
VW_I think the key for this group is that if anything changes, we are still honoring the mission of "ensuring the voice of the operator/user is represented in the evolution of the projects and the community"15:38
spotz+115:38
jamesmcarthurSo maybe the way forward is to define what the next year looks like, keeping in mind that mission.15:40
josephrsandovalwhich today the voice might be heard. but as community evolves that could change.15:41
josephrsandovaland yes agree on a revisiting of the UC goals.15:41
belmoreirayes, I agree with revisiting the UC goals15:42
apriceshould we add them to the agenda?15:43
apriceer etherpad15:43
VW_yes - we can do that15:43
VW_I added a heading in the etherpad, for all of us to make notes15:44
VW_we don't have to do it all now, but we should spend the next few days adding to that15:46
VW_can we all agree to do that by next Monday and we can discuss further?15:50
