OpenShift-Ansible Proposal Process

Proposal Decision Tree

TODO: Add details about when a proposal is or is not required.

Proposal Process

The following process should be followed when a proposal is needed:

1. Create a pull request with the initial proposal
   • Use the proposal template
   • Name the proposal using two or three topic words with underscores as a separator (i.e. proposal_template.md)
   • Place the proposal in the docs/proposals directory
2. Notify the development team of the proposal and request feedback
3. Review the proposal on the OpenShift-Ansible Architecture Meeting
4. Update the proposal as needed and ask for feedback
5. Approved/Closed Phase
   • If 75% or more of the active development team give the proposal a :+1: it is Approved
   • If 50% or more of the active development team disagrees with the proposal it is Closed
   • If the person proposing the proposal no longer wishes to continue they can request it to be Closed
   • If there is no activity on a proposal, the active development team may Close the proposal at their discretion
   • If none of the above is met the cycle can continue to Step 4.
6. For approved proposals, the current development lead(s) will:
   • Update the Pull Request with the result and merge the proposal
   • Create a card on the Cluster Lifecycle Trello board so it may be scheduled for implementation.
