From b493466070dd9a772af31a492dc9b6bd0689adc8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christophe de Dinechin Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2021 16:43:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] elections: Remove my candidacy As indicated, my candidacy was conditional to Archana not having submitted hers. Having seen an announce on the mailing list, I assume she will also commit it in this repository.

In that role, I have -been leading and coordinating the effort made by numerous contributors from Red -Hat in order to improve Kata Containers, its CI and its interaction with -components such as qemu, CRI-O or the kernel (e.g. SR-IOV). - -Over the recent years, I have created the initial Kata packages for Fedora, and -then focused on security and threat model, performance, scalability, -debuggability and testability. Among the process changes that happened with the -help of Ariel, I can mention a weekly "triage" meeting as well as the use of -GitHub "projects" to coordinate efforts such as Confidential Containers. - -For the future, I have a genuine interest in long-term evolutions of Kata, -including Confidential Containers, as well as a better API for communicating -with other components, which I recently renamed from "Sandbox API" to "Pod API" -to distinguish it from the containerd Sandbox API proposal. I really want to -address many CPU and I/O performance issues, as well as memory usage and general -scalability of Kata Containers. - -Since I started working on Kata Containers, I believe that I have rarely missed -an architecture committee meeting, despite not being officially on the -committee. That works fine with me: the architecture committee has always been -extremely open to external input. However, I feel that the Architecture -committee needs a quorum, and I am happy to fill the third seat that is up for -this election if Archana is not re-applying for her own seat. - -I really enjoy working with this community, and I look forward to keep -contributing, whether it's through the architecture committee or otherwise.
