CentOS PaaS SIG

SIG Status: Approved

Board Member Helping Bootstrap: KaranbirSingh

The CentOS PaaS SIG will work on delivering multiple PaaS Stacks that are built, tested and delivered into the CentOS Ecosystem for end user consumption, run as a service and also provided in various formats ( rpms, containers, images etc ) for other efforts in the CentOS Ecosystem, that can derive value from this content.

1. Goals

• Build and deliver an OpenShift Origins stack, that tracks upstream releases.

• Provide container and rpms for other efforts in CentOS Ecosystem that futher build on top of OpenShift, including the Atomic SIG, the Cloud SIG and the Virt SIG.

• Provide a quick start guide for end users to get started with OpenShift on their own installs.

• Provide regular releases and updates as needed.

2. Mailing List and Communication

Work relevant to CentOS build systems, etc. will take place on centos-devel mailing list. Work related to upstream interfaces will take place on the relevant lists, starting with the openshift origin content be discussed at http://lists.openshift.redhat.com/openshiftmm/listinfo/dev.

Note that we will aim to also deliver a service hosted within the CentOS Infrastructure, therefore content will traverse multiple CentOS forums, lists, channels, sites.
