摘要

尽管软件生态系统(SECO)数量激增，但发展一个可持续、健康的SECO仍然是一项重大挑战。缓解这一挑战的一种方法是利用一种机制，从SECO版本的分发者(发行版)和最终用户那里收集反馈。本演讲旨在调查OpenStack实现的反馈机制的有效性，以满足最终用户和发行版的需求。我挖掘了OpenStack存储库，并映射了20个发行版的bug相关活动。结果表明，OpenStack版本在达到生命终止期(EOL)之前会积极维护18个月，这使得与发行版的协调变得困难，因为发行版通常在达到EOL之前为最终用户提供36 - 60个月的服务。此外，发行版修复bug的速度(7 - 76天)比OpenStack社区(平均4个月)要快。然而，OpenStack发行版解决的bug中只有22%被推回上游。

Cross-distribution Feedback in Software Ecosystems

Despite the proliferation of software ecosystems (SECOs), growing a sustainable and healthy SECO remains a significant challenge. One approach to mitigate this challenge is the utilization of a mechanism that collects feedback from distributors (distros) and end-users of the SECO releases. This presentation aims at investigating the effectiveness of the feedback mechanism implemented by OpenStack to address the needs of end-users and distros. I mined the OpenStack repositories and mapped 20 distros' bug-related activities. Results suggest that OpenStack releases are actively maintained for 18 months before reaching end-of-life (EOL), which makes coordination with distros difficult because distros usually provide services to their end-users for a period between 36 - 60 months before reaching EOL. Also, bugs are fixed faster by the distros (7 - 76 days) than the OpenStack community (average of 4 months). However, only 22% of the bugs addressed by OpenStack distros are pushed back upstream.
