Nomination for co-chair for the GitOps Working Group
Lee, Edward <Edward_Lee@...>
I would like to nominate Dan Garfield for the co-chair position for the GitOps Working Group.
Dan Garfield is the Chief Open Source Officer at Codefresh. His role is unique because it is focused on enabling open source, community, and related ecosystems. Codefresh is already heavily involved with the GitOps working group as well as the Argo Project.
Dan's background as an engineer, marketer, and technology leader as well as
his energy and dedication make him an ideal choice to represent the community at this formative time for the GitOps working group.

Nomination for GitOps WG co-chair
Cornelia Davis
Hello all. I would like to nominate our industry and my Weaveworks colleague, Scott Rigby, to be a co-chair of the GitOps Working Group. I've asked Scott to share a bit more of his background with all of you - see below. From me personally, I must share how delighted I am that Scott is willing to step up and serve in this capacity. I've had the opportunity to work quite closely with Scott and have seen his dedication to the technology user, whether it is in the helm community, helping users migrate from flux v1 to v2, or even in what this propeller-head sees as less technical (but probably is more tech than I give it credit for ;-). I place emphasis on the term "user" because I believe it exemplifies the spirit of community that permeates OSS. You can see in Scott's self-intro that this is nothing new for him - he is OSS to the core. Thank you all for your consideration. Cornelia ------------------- From Scott: I'm a Brooklyn based interdisciplinary artist and open source software engineer, co-developing experimental cultural projects and emerging technologies. I co-founded the Basekamp art and research group in 1998 and the massively collaborative Plausible Artworlds international network. In technology I enjoy helping develop open source software that anyone can use, these days focusing most of that attention on projects in the cloud native landscape, including Flux and Helm – as a community maintainer and project org maintainer respectively. In daily decisions large or small, I try to help make the world a better place for everyone. My path to GitOps is a fun but familiar one. In the mid 2000s I found my collaborative conflict resolution experience and systems thinking from cultural projects also applied to open source software, leading me directly into DevOps as a way to bridge otherwise siloed development and operations teams. My focus began shifting from primarily applications to software that powers systems, such as Kubernetes. As a human operator in subsequent years, and as the rough edges in CI and other scripted automation for delivery became harder to ignore, I wondered why the application lifecycle process couldn't be as declarative as the underlying infra now was. GitOps became a natural next area of focus, prompting my move to the Weaveworks DX team, and contributing whatever thinking, communication or legwork needed for projects like the GitOps Working Group. With the interest and enthusiasm from such a broad range of parties, I'm excited to see where GitOps, as a wider interconnected movement, is able to go.

GitOps Working Group co-chair nomination
Hi all, I would like to nominate Christian Hernandez as a GitOps WG co-chair. Christian has demonstrated a wide knowledge of GitOps and helps others embrace GitOps practices and tooling. I asked Christian for his bio for everyone: "Christian Hernandez has been in IT for over 16 years with experience in system administration, tech support, development, enterprise architecture, and management. He was the second OpenShift Field Engineer in North America hired, and has been involved with Kubernetes since its inception, and experienced the rewrite of OpenShift that took place. He's been focused on GitOps for the past two years and is passionate about bringing it to the forefront. In his free time, he loves to play guitar and is a bit of a wine snob." Thank you,

Calling for nominations for GitOps Working Group (WG) Co-chairs
Cornelia Davis
Hello community. As I believe you are aware, the GitOps Working Group was formed late last year with the goal "to provide companies and individuals with the skills, knowledge and competency to implement GitOps tooling and methodologies which simplify the operation and management of infrastructure and cloud native applications" and care for the GitOps Working group sandbox project. While we've already gone to work on a number of initiatives, the time has come for us to elect co-chairs for the working group. While co-chairs are responsible for ensuring that meetings and other activities are conducted and progress continues to be made against the WG agenda, this role is not purely administrative. Co-chairs will have GitOps domain knowledge and will engage deeply in the work being done. That said, chairs are not expected to do all of the work of the WG - this is encouraged of all members and expected from those who have volunteered onto various workstreams. The time commitment for a co-chair will vary from week to week, but will likely average out to be roughly a half day's work per week. With this email I open the call for nominations for the co-chair positions for the GitOps Working Group. Details:
I will cross post this note to the #wg-gitops slack channel as well. Thank you all. Cornelia -- Cornelia Davis CTO, Weaveworks @cdavisafc +1 805 452 8941

Re: Operator Working Group chair(s)

Having seen both of them drive this forward I think this is good idea and values their commitment. I would still ask whether there are other who are interested in chairing the working group. Just want to give everybody a chance to speak up.

Operator Working Group chair(s)
Marc Campbell
Hi everyone,
When the App Delivery Operator working group was formed, Gerred Dillon and I volunteered as co-chairs to lead the discussion and drive toward a draft of an operator definition. The meeting cadence and activity slowed down considerable over the summer. Recently, Thomas Schuetz and Omer Kahani have stepped up and taken over the management of this WG and have been leading the efforts to get a draft of the operator definition together. I'm recommending that Thomas and Omer become the new chairs of the Operator working group, replacing Gerred Dillon and myself. The recent progress in advancing the definition has been led by Omer and Thomas and they've graciously offered to assume the role and continue leading this working group. Thank you, Marc Campbell marc@...

Working Group on GitOps proposed - Please declare your interest
Reitbauer, Alois
Hello everyone,
as you might have already heard the CNCF and SIG App Delivery was approached by to create a working group around GitOps. As GitOps is becoming a more central part of cloud-native application delivery this looks like a good fit.
If you are interested in this, please declare so in the working Google. Also feel free to provide your input (everyone should have comment rights) - https://docs.google.com/document/d/11EZfvB2FFI837nMmArnyv-wizsIJvc-4_xdgfoUXF4o/edit?ts=5fb68361#heading=h.tynxy1m53ozs
I expect the team to present more details during our next SIG call. In the meantime, please share your thoughts on this thread and provide input to the working group document.

Re: [cncf-toc] Cloud native "reference/demo" application
Reitbauer, Alois
Hello everyone,
We have some initial progress around a demo application. Things are very rough around the edges right now but you can find a first version here: https://github.com/cncf/podtato-head
Right now this is a single, simple service. Obviously this will be extended in the future.
However, already today there is a good number of delivery tool examples that are showcased. \
If you are interested in contribution please let me so I can coordinate next steps.
// Alois
From: <cncf-toc@...> on behalf of "Reitbauer, Alois via lists.cncf.io" <alois.reitbauer=dynatrace.com@...>
I am using this list as it most likely reaches the widest audience in the CNCF.
In recent discussions in the app delivery SIG we came to the conclusion that a reference application would make sense that a) has most of the characteristics of real world applications b) can be used to demonstrate good practices and also how certain CNCF tools can be used to solve common problems.
Having a reference application – or multiple - when we are talking about app delivery makes a lot of sense.
Looking at the most widely used applications you undoubtedly end up with Hipstershop, Sockshop or one of their variants. While these apps are nice to demo what a cloud-native application can look like, they also miss key characteristics like stateful workloads, third party integrations, secrets, multi-stage configurations, databases, …. .
I also assume that many CNCF project have their own demo applications to demonstrate their capabilities.
Alexis made the proposal to fork one of more of the demo applications over in a CNCF demo-apps org. This, however, only makes sense if there is active development on this demo. It might be even better to have the demo app together with the development community behind actively participate in the CNCF – by e.g. donating the app as a sandbox project.
So, to get more concrete, a couple of questions to get feedback on:
Obviously, as this idea matures this need direction and discussion in the TOC. I am using this email to kick off the discussion and collect some first data points.

Operator WG Update
Thomas Schuetz
Hello,
as discussed in the meeting, we did some work on the Operator Document and are trying to make some progress. At the moment we focus on the essential things of the document (so what an operator is, but not what it not is), so we're keeping things as similar technologies out of the discussion at the moment. Call to action:
- Thomas

Re: Highlights from today's meeting
Reitbauer, Alois
For reference this was the continuous deliver radar done a while back by the CNCF: https://radar.cncf.io/2020-06-continuous-delivery
From: <cncf-sig-app-delivery@...> on behalf of "Lei Zhang via lists.cncf.io" <resouer=gmail.com@...>
Thanks Alois! The "podtato" is super awesome!
Btw, based on today's discussion, the SIG app delivery is also thinking for CNCF Radar for application delivery and management. This should be a informative approach to let the community know better the current status of the projects in app delivery area.
Though I personally don't want to restrict CNCF Radar to end user community only, since I can see the vendors can also bring many insightful feedback on the adoption of certain projects from different angles.
Feel free to let us know your thought on this iterm and we are egar to make it happen!
