To celebrate #OpenStack turning 15, we asked folks at the past #OpenInfra Days NA to fill out cards sharing the contributions they’ve made to OpenStack over the last 15 years—and WOW, the responses were incredible. 💙

Jim Blair took the cake (literally 🎂) with a contribution to every OpenStack release except one!

Now it’s time to fill out your contribution card and share it on social media with #WeAreOpenStack

🎂 OpenStack is turning 15 this year!

I've had the privilege to be able to contribute to (almost) all releases, providing governance guidance and release management for our awesome community.

As the need for open source solutions for infrastructure is higher than ever, I'm looking forward to the next 15 years!
