Hi everyone, I have been handling release management for OpenStack since the beginning of this story, well before Release Management was a program or a project team needing a proper elected PTL. Until recently it was largely a one-man job. But starting with this cycle, to accommodate the Big Tent changes, we grew the team significantly, to the point where I think it is healthy to set up a PTL rotation in the team.
I generally think it's a good thing to change the PTL for a team from time to time. That allows different perspectives, skills and focus to be brought to a project team. That lets you take a step back. That allows to recognize the efforts and leadership of other members, which is difficult if you hold on the throne. So I decided to put my foot where my mouth is and apply those principles to my own team. That doesn't mean I won't be handling release management for Mitaka, or that I won't ever be Release Management PTL again -- it's just that someone else will take the PTL hat for the next cycle, drive the effort and be the most visible ambassador of the team.
