2021 CFF Technical Oversight Committee Election Results

Chip Childers <cchilders@...>
 

Many thanks to everyone who took the time to register and vote in the first Cloud Foundry Foundation annual election for our newly forming Technical Oversight Committee (TOC). I also extend my deep thanks to all of the nominees who agreed to run in the election. Overall, our community’s participation in this election process was outstanding (especially given that this was our first time doing this!)


And with that preamble, I’m pleased to announce our first CFF Technical Oversight Committee will be:

* Eric Malm (VMware)

* David Stevenson (VMware)

* Jan von Loewenstein (SAP)

* Stephan Merker (SAP)

* Lee Porte (GOV.UK)


Congratulations to Eric, David, Jan, Stephan and Lee! I’m looking forward to working with you to get the TOC up and running.


For transparency, more details have been published here: https://github.com/cloudfoundry/community/blob/main/toc/elections/2021/results.md

LAST CALL for CFF TOC election - Polling closes tomorrow

Chip Childers <cchilders@...>
 

Hi all!

A reminder for the community that this is the last call for the TOC election. We've had a solid response rate for qualified voters voting, but there are 37 incomplete ballots (people that authorized their email address, but have not yet actually voted).

I'll be closing the poll tomorrow, Tuesday June 15, at the end of the work day Pacific US time (around 5 PM US Pacific).

If you are a qualified voter and have any questions or concerns, please let me know ASAP!

Happy voting!

CF on K8s Vision + Technical Thoughts

Angela Chin
 

Hi cf-dev,


Following the great discussion in the last CF on K8s SIG call, I wanted to share more about how we at VMware are thinking about defining the technical architecture to support the CF on K8s vision. In particular, we noted how the core developer workflows are key to preserve, while still looking to allow for more direct integration with Kubernetes.


Based on this, we decided to dive into looking at how we might choose to support a “cf push” workflow. At a high level, we are looking at utilizing custom resources to represent core CF concepts (such as App, Process, and Droplet) and have a new component serve as the API for creating these resources. We drew up a possible architecture in this Miro board and would love feedback on it. We’ll be continuing to explore this space and produce other artifacts to share with the community and to discuss in the CF on K8s SIG calls. :)


If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.


Cheers,

Angela
