Good morning / afternoon / evening, Not sure if you have seen the agenda etherpad posted in the Slack channel - https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/picasso-first-meeting. Might be worth putting our thoughts in there, I already had a few questions about integration with the OpenStack community and so on.
Here are a few of my biggest sticking points with the project which I feel we should really address early on: a) Currently the project does not appear to use the standard OpenStack Oslo libraries and as such the configuration and behavior of the project is inconsistent with other projects. This could be particularly confusing for operators as even simple things like the config file (there isn’t one yet that I am aware of, stuff is passed In via args at daemon run time) is completely different to the usual section based config files we see in most OpenStack projects. b) The project only works with IronFunctions, not saying that IronFunctions is a bad choice for sure a driver for IronFunctions should be included, but it would be good to allow other Function as a Service platforms to make use of Picasso in a pluggable fashion, e.g. a driver for Fission, or a raw driver based on top of Nova / Heat. For me vendor neutrality is a really important aspect of OpenStack services and having the freedom to choose the backend of these APIs is crucial.

The only change was moving the meeting time from 1800 UTC to 1700 UTC.

Today I created an #openstack-functions channel on IRC and have submitted the necessary patches to the openstack-infra project-config and irc-meetings repositories. Due to this, I may have to move the first meeting from this Tuesday to another day or week as we wait for approval.. I'll keep this thread posted as soon as I know more.

Yes IRC would be needed for big tent, but why start consuming IRC out of the gate? Are are already hosting code on git.openstack.org<http://git.openstack.org>, seems like the next step would be to move to IRC. > Regards, > Derek Schultz > > On Wed, Mar 1, 2017 at 7:49 AM Emilien Macchi > <emil...@redhat.com<mailto:emil...@redhat.com>> wrote: > > > On Tue, Feb 28, 2017 at 12:30 PM, Derek Schultz > > <schultz.de...@gmail.com<mailto:schultz.de...@gmail.com>> > > wrote: > > > Hello all, > > > > > > The Picasso team will be running our first meeting next Tuesday.
