Time for a changing of the guard in OpenStack.

On March 28, Red Hat developer Russell Bryant announced that he would not be running for re-election at Project Technical Leader (PTL) for OpenStack Nova compute.

Bryant became the Nova PT in April of 2013 – and I remember well seeing him on stage at the OpenStack Portland event.

The new incoming Nova PTL is Rackspace developer Michael Still, whom I also first saw back at OpenStack’s Portland event. At the time, Still was a core reviewer in OpenStack and presented a session on how to actually get code into the project.
