The OpenStack Schizophrenia

Read Original

The article examines OpenStack's evolution over five years, from a small ecosystem to a sprawling 'big tent' of 54 project teams. It discusses the 2014 project structure reform that enabled this growth but also created internal conflict, with some projects treated as second-class citizens. The author, a former Technical Committee member, critiques ongoing efforts like DefCore and cross-project specs that struggle to reconcile the old unified platform vision with the new diverse reality.
