Hi everyone,

First of all, I'm sorry that the Ironic docs thing has turned into a bit
of a disaster. I had no idea that we were going to end up in a standards
argument over this, but I'm still hopeful that we can see a path through
this.

The problem: A number of patches (mostly created by Shilla, if I'm not
mistaken) are now being blocked in the Ironic repo by an Ironic core who
doesn't agree with our standards. While they're certainly entitled to
question our standards, blocking the patches means that other good work
is not getting merged.

The solution: I'm not certain. Right now, what I want to do is send
email to Devananda (the Ironic PTL) with a list of the patches being
blocked, so we can determine if there's a way we can appease the Ironic
core team's concerns over standards. Shilla (and others who have a patch
out on this), can you please send me a list of the patches currently
being blocked?

The fallout: We're already arguing about the standard in question on our
own list, and the community seems deeply divided. I personally don't
care about the capitalisation of service names, and am happy to enforce
whatever the community decides. That said, I feel as though the
community is unlikely to come to a solid conclusion on this. Do cores
have an opinion? If there is a strong tendency amongst this group,
perhaps it's easier to just go with that and adjust accordingly. Please
feel free to debate this topic on this thread.

Thanks, and apologies again for this mess.

Lana
