Your regular reporter, Chris Dent, is on PTO today, so I'm filling in. I'll be 
brief.

After the flurry of activity to get as much in before the Ocata RCs, this past 
week was relatively calm. Work continued on the patch to have Ironic resources 
tracked as, well, individual entities instead of pseudo-VMs, and with a little 
more clarity, should be ready to merge soon.

The patch series to add the concept of nested resource providers is moving 
forward a bit more slowly. Nested RPs allow for modeling of complex resources, 
such as a compute node that contains PCI devices, each of which has multiple 
physical and virtual functions. The series starts here:

We largely ignored traits, which represent the qualitative part of a resource, 
and focused on the quantitative side during Ocata. With Pike development now 
open, we look to begin discussing and developing the traits work in more 
detail. The spec for traits is here:

…and the series of POC code starts with:

        https://review.openstack.org/#/c/377381/9

We've also begun planning for the discussions at the PTG around what our goals 
for Pike will be. I'm sure that there will a summary of those discussions in 
one of these emails after the PTG.
