Just for the record, it's not only this repo, but all the 359 (currently, and counting...) Git repositories of: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/openstack/ this one came out only because it's the only one I tried to push on upstream infra. I didn't care pushing more packaging Git repositories until we have a way to build packages, which is currently not the case. BTW, I'd like to come back to the history of this project. A year ago, I just wanted to start things on stackforge. Then, during the Vancouver summit, I was pushed by many to enter the big tent. Which very painfully happened, after a lot of convolutions: it was finally approved in the middle of August, when I thought it would take a week or 2. This postponed getting the deb-openstack-pkg-tools project-config patch approved until nearly the Tokyo summit. Then the DIB patch to get a Debian image is on its way to take more than 3 months, while it probably doesn't need to take that much and be so perfect. I understand that it took so long probably due to my own shortcomings, and lack of follow-up on each of the above steps. I admit that I was a bit lost, and didn't know what I could do. The difficulties faced to bootstrap this project are very far from the packaging skills that we want to deploy on OpenStack infra, which could explain why I got lost and unfocused (dragged on doing the actual packaging into the official Debian distro also). It is my hope that this thread wont start another layer of bureaucratic obstacles which I will have difficulties to deal with again. The Fuel team, many occasional Debian contributors, the Kolla team, the Puppet OpenStack team, and of course myself, all want this project to get started on good tracks. It will happen, because of this need. Please give it more time.
