[occi-wg] what is going on...behind the scenes

[Thijs Metsch]

Hi @all,

Just to update you all on the issues on what is going on.

On dec. 7 I submitted the documents to the OGF editor pipeline. Currently our documents (which are going to be in the recommendations track) are in a 15 day comment period for the OGF board. When it passes through successfully the document will go to public comment for 2 months. I will share the link as soon as it is available...This means as soon as the documents are in public comment we'll ask everybody who is interested to give feedback. So please share (twitter, mail, etc) that link to the public comments web page broadly. 

So what is next? Whatever you like would be the answer. Right now spreading the word about OCCI is good. Also feel free to think about extensions which OCCI might need (Advanced Reservation, Billing, Snapshotting support etc). Another topic might be to start thinking about how we could tackle PaaS or similar. We (the chairs) have not yet worked out a complete roadmap but it might include PaaS and IaaS (extensions, next version etc). So feel free so share your thoughts on this mailing-list or contact one of the chairs privately.

So far I'm pretty happy with the things we achieved so far. So thanks to you all and happy holidays!,

-Thijs
