Remove references to Big Tent from project list slides
This commit removes the references to the Big Tent from the project list
slides. We're trying to move away from that term because it causes
confusion to a lot of people. Instead we should call them OpenStack
projects. One note about big tent is left in, because people still use
the term, but we should use that to explain it's the old way to describe
all OpenStack projects.

Official OpenStack projects

  • Requirements for official OpenStack projects
  • Projects improve and grow independently but also strive to improve one collaborative framework: OpenStack
  • Projects APIs are documented within the project
  • Testable on its own
  • Dashboard (horizon) and DevStack provide plugin interface for easy integration
  • Official OpenStack projects are tracked in the Project Navigator
  • Big Tent was a code name for the official OpenStack projects

Note

  • Not all projects are currently tracked in Project Navigator. The goal, however, is for it to be an ever growing list.

Benefits of being an Official OpenStack project

  • Contributors get to vote in the Technical Committee election
  • Can publish to docs.openstack.org and developer.openstack.org
  • The teams get space at OpenStack Summits and Project Team Gatherings (PTG)
  • Get marketing from the OpenStack Foundation
  • Can participate in common programs, like mentoring and internship to help with on boarding
  • Get guidance from community members and leaders
  • Its activities are under the oversight of the TC

Note

  • PTG: https://www.openstack.org/ptg/
  • Mentoring is run by the Women of OpenStack group, where mentees are guided through the OpenStack processes.
  • The OpenStack Foundation participates in internship programs as Outreachy.
  • Official OpenStack projects can participate by offering topics and mentors for the interns who sign up for this program.

Core and Optional Services

  • Core services are OpenStack projects and essential in every OpenStack-powered IaaS cloud or product
  • Optional services are also OpenStack projects but not necessarily needed to operate OpenStack depending on use cases
