This was as per Alena's request that I should proceed by pushing the changes for the Autoscale feature (since I am the only committer here in Bangalore) by creating a new branch on apache and the author( Vijay) would send out an email on the cloudstack dev list , mentioning about the Autoscale feature. We'll be merging some more changes very soon.

Pranav, et al.
This is still problematic. For the time being, lets hold off on
additional commits to this branch till we get some of the process and
IP issues sorted.
First, who are the authors for the code that's been committed to this
branch, you mention 'a few guys in BLR', but who are they
specifically?
Second, as a group the project needs to decide if we want to include
this feature, and if so, how we will handle inclusion. (There are a
number of potential options here, the PPMC could send it through IP
Clearance at the Incubator, or a Software Grant, or something more
simple.) Don't be surprised if this involves deleting the branch or
reverting the commits and handling submission in some other manner.

Vijay:
There are still a number of issues (not necessarily around this
particular feature but around the process itself) still being
discussed. Brett (one of our mentors) is taking the lead on them, so
I'll let him provide us with some guidance.
Brett:
I don't necessarily want to block forward progress, but how do we
handle this decently and in order?

Hi Ram,
For a start, we need Vijay and anyone else who's worked on this code to sign the ICLA and scan and send it to secretary@apache.org. http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas. Citrix has already signed the corporate CLA and we have authorization to sign ICLAs for submissions to Apache, so there's nothing internal that you need to do.
Thanks,
Ewan.

David,
We did discuss the AutoScale feature in the apache forum, followed the process by creating a topic branch and follow patch process as and when they arise. As Vijay\Deepak have no committer privileges we had to route it through pranav. Functional specs is available at http://wiki.cloudstack.org/display/DesignDocs/Auto+Scale+Feature. If there are gaps in the process followed please let us know

RE: What to do with Autoscale: was: Re: [6/11] AutoScale changes in
Apache master
Posted by Pranav Saxena <pr...@citrix.com>.
Hi David ,
As I mentioned in my previous mail , Vijay Venkatchalam and Deepak Garg are the authors for the backend code and me , Jessica and Sanjay have been responsible for the UI development for this feature. Vijay has sent out a mail to the cloudstack dev community regarding the " Autoscale" feature. I think you happened to miss the mails sent by Vijay and Deepak in this regard. And whatever code has been merged later on after the creation of the asf/autoscale branch has been sent through review requests on the dev ML.
Kindly have a look at the mails sent by Vijay and let me know whatever decisions I have to abide by . I will be more than happy to follow your advice.
Thanks & Regards,
Pranav

Since this feature was supposed to be pushed in today y , so we had to create a new branch asf/autoscale ( pulled out of 3.0.x - citrix private branch ) and push the changes there. This was as per Alena's request that I should proceed by pushing the changes for the Autoscale feature (since I am the only committer here in Bangalore) by creating a new branch on apache and the author( Vijay ) would send out an email on the cloudstack dev list , mentioning about the Autoscale feature. We'll be merging some more changes very soon.

Pranav, et al.
This is still problematic. For the time being, lets hold off on additional commits to this branch till we get some of the process and IP issues sorted.
First, who are the authors for the code that's been committed to this branch, you mention 'a few guys in BLR', but who are they specifically?
Second, as a group the project needs to decide if we want to include this feature, and if so, how we will handle inclusion. (There are a number of potential options here, the PPMC could send it through IP Clearance at the Incubator, or a Software Grant, or something more
simple.) Don't be surprised if this involves deleting the branch or reverting the commits and handling submission in some other manner.
