============================================================== 2018-02-15 Use of OpenStack CI Resources for External Projects ============================================================== Many organizations generously donate cloud computing resources to the OpenStack project for use by its testing and automation system so that we can maintain and improve the quality of our software. We are stewards of these resources and strive to use them wisely and responsibly. Toward our goal of improving interaction with other communities, we support the use of some of those resources toward testing OpenStack software with other software projects which are developed outside of the OpenStack community. In order to ensure that cloud computing resources donated to the OpenStack project are used responsibly, use of resources for this purpose are permitted only for integration testing with open-source projects which are direct dependencies or direct downstream consumers of official OpenStack projects.
