I should have a lot more to say on this, but I’m still learning. You see, back in November 2019 my job changed, and I went from being full time developer on an OpenStack based cloud offering and a contributor upstream, to being a full time developer on a Kubernetes based cloud offering and trying to figure out how to fit in to the Kubernetes community. It has been a little slow figuring out how to get in to this new community that follows the directions of Google. I am fortunate to have some coworkers who have some experience in the area, and that has helped greatly. But (and I’m not surprised by this) my first attempt at a simple change upstream to kubernetes/kubernetes has been torpedoed by the oddities of the community. In a nutshell, the published Logging Conventions apparently only apply to some of the code, and that detail is not stated anywhere. So the learning process will continue.
