Committer / ACM seat designation
both, preferably committer seat
Statement of Intent
I would like to promote OpenDaylight as a network controller implementation of reference.
There are lots of challenges today in the area of open and interoperable standards.
And I believe OpenDaylight is one of the best platform to implement these new standards or to speed up their adoption, but also to mutualize companies effort to this end.
During these last years, I had also to take the train on the way and to learn from scratch how to integrate transportPCE to the OpenDaylight official distributions.
I think that my experience benefits the TSC to improve our operating modes inside the community and to attract new contributors.
This last topic is getting more and more important since OpenDaylight has now a strong legacy and higher requirements for quality that are faced by newcomers.

ACM seat
Statement of Intent
ODL is very stable but it is also monolithic. We need a way that more people can adopt ODL with relative ease.
There are a lot of problems that need to be sorted out. Some of which can be sorted by aligning ODL to latest deployment methodologies.
I intend to help ODL be adopted by more and more companies.
I also intend help the community grow in terms of participation and contribution.
