I made a few modifications based on my years of experience using OpenStack, which I believe improve the overall robustness and usability of Swift support in Kolla-Ansible.\n\nMoving forward, I intend to contribute more actively to the development of Kolla-Ansible.

What happened? Basically nothing — the response was minimal, bordering on zero — so up until now, we decided to actually remove Swift.\n\nAs for me personally, I would have liked Swift to remain part of the ecosystem in Kolla, and by extension in Kolla-Ansible. The problem is that Swift should have proper tests, it should follow the coding style of the other projects, and honestly — every major change was running into issues with Swift, where often it wasn’t even clear if the implementation in Swift was correct (since Swift is a bit different from other services)... because almost no one uses it in Kolla, tests were failing, and so on.\n\nThis also played a role in our company when we were deciding whether to deploy Swift using Kolla — in the end, we wrote our own complete Swift deployment and still use it today. If I tried to push through all the sensible changes into Kolla, I wouldn\u0027t live to see it happen — simply because there are no people who would review it. From my side, I’d rather see a gradual deployment concept, step by step, with all the tests and so on. Not a single commit that’s supposed to do everything and basically throw a wrench in the works again and take us back in time.\n\nPS: After 30 seonds I just found this patch for example completly don\u0027t follow the pattern how services are now restarted in kolla-ansible (configure multiple times, restart once), which is actually showing you don\u0027t follow kolla-ansible development, don\u0027t rebase your patch, not maintaining.","commit_id":"49d48bd12ba9bce1c3ec3b07af2c62e24526aadc"},{"author":{"_account_id":37855,"name":"Amir Hossein Ahmadi","display_name":"Amir Hossein","email":"sahahmadi96@gmail.com","username":"amir58118"},"change_message_id":"baa975f176c53a7f01877801683e06ba48eb42bf","unresolved":false,"context_lines":[],"source_content_type":"","patch_set":2,"id":"867b3d24_2cd4aead","in_reply_to":"23872702_ae803dc0","updated":"2025-03-29 10:03:10.000000000","message":"Acknowledged","commit_id":"49d48bd12ba9bce1c3ec3b07af2c62e24526aadc"},{"author":{"_account_id":13252,"name":"Dr. Jens Harbott","display_name":"Jens Harbott (frickler)","email":"frickler@offenerstapel.de","username":"jrosenboom"},"change_message_id":"4553d304639dad2022c1054dd5d08c1b691f5f56","unresolved":false,"context_lines":[],"source_content_type":"","patch_set":2,"id":"ae35caab_7d0f1530","in_reply_to":"27544b4e_56bcd21b","updated":"2025-03-28 16:06:21.000000000","message":"I never questioned your expertise, I would be happy to see you demonstrate your commitment to contributing by actually doing so and then when the time comes we can maybe revisit this patch.
