<div dir="ltr"><div>Today I'm conducting interviews in Blanca Peak and I'd love to talk about what you worked on in Rocky and / or what you're planning to do in Stein. I'm especially keen to hear about how new collaborators can join your project! See you soon!</div><div><br></div><div>~R.<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Sat, Sep 8, 2018 at 6:24 PM Rain Leander <<a href="mailto:rleander@redhat.com">rleander@redhat.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hello all!</div><div><br></div><div>I'm attending PTG this week to
conduct project interviews [0]. These interviews have several purposes.
Please consider all of the
following when thinking about what you might want to say in your
interview:<br><br>* Tell the users/customers/press what you've been working on in Rocky<br>* Give them some idea of what's (what might be?) coming in Stein<br>* Put a human face on the OpenStack project and encourage new participants to join us<br>*
You're welcome to promote your company's involvement in OpenStack but
we ask that you avoid any kind of product pitches or job recruitment<br><br>In the interview I'll ask some leading questions and it'll go easier if you've given some thought to them ahead of time:<br><br>* Who are you? (Your name, your employer, and the project(s) on which you are active.)<br>* What did you accomplish in Rocky? (Focus on the 2-3 things that will be most interesting to cloud operators)<br>*
What do you expect to be the focus in Stein? (At the time of your
interview, it's likely that the meetings will not yet have decided
anything firm. That's ok.)<br>* Anything further about the project(s) you work on or the OpenStack community in general.<br><br>Finally,
note that there are only 40 interview slots available, so please
consider coordinating with your project to designate the people that you
want to represent the project, so that we don't end up with 12
interview about Neutron, or whatever. I mean, love me some Neutron, but twelve interviews is a bit too many, eh?<br></div><div><br></div><div>It's fine to have multiple people
in one interview - Maximum 3, probably.<br><br>Interview slots are 30
minutes, in which time we hope to capture somewhere between 10 and 20
minutes of content. It's fine to run shorter but 15 minutes is probably
an ideal length.</div><div><br></div><div>See you SOON!</div><div><br></div><div>[0] <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19XjQPeE9ZobK1b49aM-J7P-xQC-OKLNeFnwxavyQCgU/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19XjQPeE9ZobK1b49aM-J7P-xQC-OKLNeFnwxavyQCgU/edit?usp=sharing</a></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="m_5052836401882433310gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><span><font color="#888888"><div>K Rain Leander<br>OpenStack Community Liaison<br>Open Source and Standards Team<br><a href="https://www.rdoproject.org/" target="_blank">https://www.rdoproject.org/</a><br></div><div><a href="http://community.redhat.com" target="_blank">http://community.redhat.com</a><br></div></font></span></div></div></div>
