Too much Firefightening

@jonlives
It’s a Chef system - I know this!

“Hmm, this doesn’t work quite the way I want it to…”

@jonlives
…so I started writing and open sourcing tools.

@jonlives
Sometimes, I talk about the problems I’ve been
trying to solve…

@jonlives
…and sometimes I get a bit carried away.

@jonlives
And it’s all because of (and for) the Chef community.

@jonlives
Your perspective is more important than ever!

@jonlives
And with Chef, you have the power.

@jonlives
The Chef Community▪ All roles open to everybody
▪ “RFC” driven
▪ Weekly meetings to discuss RFCs
▪ Chef employees don’t get any more power than we do
▪ You can work on the overall project, or things you specifically care about

@jonlives
Project Lead▪ Adam Jacob (usually)
▪ Resolves disputes
▪ Provides vision and roadmap
▪ Has universal veto power
▪ There can be only one

@jonlives
Chef Components▪ Core, testing, OS-specific etc
▪ People who most care
▪ Maintainers have full agency
▪ Lt exists to resolve disputes
▪ Lt also has veto power (AFAIK never used thus far)

@jonlives
Chef RFCs▪ “Request for Comment”
▪ Can be proposed by anybody
▪ RFC editors help guide you through the process
▪ Once approved, anyone can implement
▪ Proposal doesn’t mean *you* have to implement it

@jonlives
So, what do I do?
▪ RFC Editor
▪ Redhat / CentOS Lieutenant
▪ Maintainer for Redhat and Core components
▪ These are the things I care most about
▪ I got involved to “safeguard” those things

That is how much Chef trust and empower us to make it
what we want it to be.
