* ttx has entered the summit prep vortex and might not be very useful again before it's June15:02
* jroll pokes his head in15:02
fungii spent the better part of a day just figuring out what my schedule will look like that week (and i'm not quite done yet either)15:02
* mnaser has to get around doing that15:03
* smcginnis does too15:03
mnaseri'm excited about the discussion about what is an openstack official project.  i do feel a bit for adrian15:03
mnaserhe has been *very* patient to pursue this for close to 2 months15:03
zanebduring the election campaign a number of TC members not up for re-election said that they would provide answers to dhellmann's mailing list questions after the election15:04
zanebI still think that would be very interesting, and it is now after the election :)15:04
cdentzaneb++15:04
mnaserzaneb: perhaps we can reply to that ML post just to put their eyes on it again15:04
dtroyer_zzzaneb: maybe after May 15 I'll have time to do that… or over $COLD_BEVERAGE in YVR15:04
ttxFor whoever is interested, I did write up notes from the K8s/OpenStack community discussions in Copenhagen.15:05
cdentmnaser: if you've got thoughts on that that you can get down on the etherpad before the session, that would be awesome15:05
ttxSee bottom of https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/CPH-k8s-openstack-story-trading15:05
cdent(where that is official project session)15:05
mugsieo/15:05
mnasercdent: i'll collect some, because i think that ties into the whole "getting more new contributions in openstack" theme..15:05
dtroyer_zzttx: thanks, I read them and that sort of thing has suddenly become even more interesting to me than a few months ago :)15:05
cdenthttps://etherpad.openstack.org/p/YVR-forum-TC-project-boundaries15:05
ttxA few things that were interesting that I may not have mentioned yet:15:06
ttxTheir use of "shadow roles" was quite successful in fostering healthy leadership rotation15:06
mnasermaking someone go through 2 months just to become an official project is a bit rough, and having very clear rules about it makes it more easy to get a "yes" or "no" right away15:07
ttxThey have very similar discussions around stable maint and LTS. They don't have a definitive stance on LTS yet but so far the consensus seems to be that they should have:15:07
smcginnisI also like how some of the teams have very clearly defined roles: https://github.com/kubernetes/sig-release/blob/master/releases/release-1.11/release_team.md15:07
ttxsupport for n-2 critical bugfixes / security fixes (which means at most 8.9 month support)15:07
ttxand no LTS / extended maint, leave that to distros15:07
ttxThey don't have that much of a vocal/engaged DIY op community like we have15:08
ttxalso they still have dozens of startups on the business of productizing K8s, so ...15:08
mnaseri think party that's still because there's still 60 ways of deploying k8s15:09
zanebmnaser: clearly you don't remember the Zaqar debacle ;)15:09
mnasers/party/partly/15:09
ttxstill their stance is that it's not the open source project's job to do stable maint.15:09
ttxthey do minimal security maint15:09
mugsiettx: I think as more established enterprise vendors get into LTS they will have more push back15:10
ttxwhen I said that it's sad to duplicate stable maint work across distros... they said that distraos are happy top duplicate if that's the key to their monetization15:10
ttxs/top/to15:10
mugsieI know when I was on a k8s product team, we were just spending sll our time upgrading between versions, and were not as worried about LTS at that point15:11
ttxso... food for thoughts15:11
dimssome latest discussion there about releases etc - https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/kubernetes-sig-architecture/NLhJ7wAliA0/t7gJ9RvbBgAJ15:11
cdent"still their stance is that it's not the open source project's job to do stable maint." I mostly agree with that15:11
mnaserinteresting concept, though as someone who works 100% open source, i appreciate the lack of duplication and the fact that i can deploy stable/queens without worrying about any problems (or i can backport things as i need to)15:11
ttxThey are aware of the limitations of a number of things they do (video meetings, GitHub) but it's likely too late to evolve that15:11
mugsieI do like the SIG Co-Lead ideas, I haven't seen much on shadow roles - is that the co-lead idea, or a separate thing?15:12
mnaserlast thing i want to do is maintain our own branches with a bunch of our own fixes.  i feel that'll increase the barrier to deployment for those who are looking to deploy without relying on $vendor15:12
ttxThey said video meetings are a great way to foster trust / good feels, something we use in-person events to foster... so it's all a trade-off15:13
cdentthe in-person events are often too far apart for the good feels....15:13
zanebttx: wearing my distro hat, it annoys me that much of the work I do on long-term maintenance doesn't have a venue where I can share it with the rest of the community. ymmv15:13
ttxzaneb: yeah, I'm not sure I agree 100% with their stance on that15:14
fungias a proponent of non-commercial, volunteer-maintained distros i find the idea of relying on monetization and productization within distros a bit fanciful15:14
ttxOtherwise my general feeling was that OpenStack is no longer the counterexample joke in discussions, but more taken as an example in things they also encounter15:16
mugsiethey also have a different usage pattern - a lot of k8s users will use GKE / Azure / Whatever AWS's thing is, which lifts a lot of the LTS burden, as they are kept up to date15:16
ttxsncwould you agree ?15:16
ttxsmcginnis: would you agree ?15:16
fungiyou could just as well argue that if enough users want to use a stabilized branch/fork of the software then some interested users for those distros may step up to carry and support it... but it certainly reduces the likelihood15:16
cdentFor me it is more a matter of being able to pick and choose and focus on what matters in a sane fashion. Being all things to all people is hard for any community that wants to consider itself a _single_ community to do.15:16
ttxLess "OpenStack done right" and more "you've been there before"15:17
*** david-lyle has joined #openstack-tc15:17
zanebthe shoe is on the other foot now :D15:17
*** david-lyle has quit IRC15:18
ttxAlso quite a lot of "you did that right in openStack" which is really new :)15:18
dims+115:18
mugsiethat is a good change - I have seen more positive messages on social media recently indicating a change as well. More "Colaborate" and less "Compete"15:19
ttxOverall a lot less snark as they realize that most of our woes come with the open collaboration territory15:19
fungilooking at the state of the kubernetes-master package in debian, i expect the odds of it even making it into the next stable release in a year-ish are pretty low15:19
dimsanother interesting read is the new charter for each SIG. each SIG kinda lays down how they will work. here's the one from SIG Node - https://github.com/kubernetes/community/pull/2065/commits/371c36569af2ba29482aa2936d65398bacbead4b15:19
mugsiefungi: there is no way they could add it, unless someone stepped up to own it for X years though, right?15:19
fungimugsie: well, it's not that formal. but to a great extent that's the expectation anyway15:20
mugsie(I seem to remember having to step up and agree to own designate bugs for x period before)15:20
fungiif you're not an official debian developer then your sponsor may have asked you that... i'd be surprised if the ftpmaster asked a dd that though15:21
dimsfungi : they had an interesting answer for lack of new etcd in distros ... just run etcd in containers15:21
fungier, the ftpmaster team15:21
fungidims: right. containers don't need an operating system. they're magic! ;)15:21
dims:)15:21
mugsiedims: the default way to deploy kubernetes is all in containers now, isnt it?15:22
dimsmugsie : some do, some dont.15:22
smcginnisttx: Sorry, had to step away for a minute. Yeah, I thought the feels towards OpenStack were much more positive than they were in Austin.15:23
ttxshameless plug: I posted a piece on what I mean by "open infrastructure" at https://opensource.com/article/18/5/open-infrastructure -- I would very much like to know if that resonates with y'all or if you think completely differently on that topic15:24
smcginnisttx: Read it - very nicely written.15:24
ttxTL;DR: "voices are being raised against the inevitability of a future in which all of the world's infrastructure needs will be met by "The Big 3.""15:24
ttxsince open infra is a bit of a buzzword I thought defining what I personally meant by it could help15:25
dims"inherent mistrust of American suppliers" ... case in point ZTE15:25
fungiif i put my outside skeptic hat on, it seems like an openstack sales pitch a tiny bit... enough that it might turn off some readers, maybe? but if the intended audience isn't technically-inclined skeptics then i think it's spot on15:25
ttxthe piece was originally written for a French audience, hence the anti-American subline :)15:26
dimsaha :)15:26
fungilike, i can see someone reading into the several mentions/recommendations of openstack along with your bio of being involved in openstack15:26
ttxfungi: I did not translate it myself, and they added a bit of OpenStack promotion bits yes15:26
fungiahh15:26
ttxsaved me time so I did not complain too much15:27
fungiheh, efficient!15:27
* dims back in a bit15:27
ttxNot bad translation too15:27
ttxLike the Summit plug at the end was not in the original column :)15:28
mugsieI think the plugging is fine, it is not unexpected if someone works on a tech in an area, they will promote that tech when writing.15:28
*** dklyle has quit IRC15:28
ttx(original ended with a Gibson quote)15:28
fungisure, though it does cause it to come across as inherently biased15:28
fungii'd have probably appreciated the gibson quote more, personally ;)15:29
ttxWell, it's a well-known quote for a US audience, but I figured the French could benefit from it15:29
fungithat said, i don't see promoting openstack as negative, but i'm almost certainly also biased ;)15:30
ttxok jumping to next call15:32
*** dklyle has joined #openstack-tc15:33
smcginnisOh shoot, forgot to ask about the dinner. :)15:33
smcginnisttx: If you're still kind of around - did you say Board/TC/UC dinner plans had been made?15:34
fungilast i heard, alan decided against doing anything formal but that doesn't prevent something informally-organized15:34
smcginnisOh, OK.15:35
ttxI saw Alan saying somewhere that we would join the diversity Happy hour / dinner15:35
ttxon Sunday evening15:35
smcginnisRSVP required for that. So should we all RSVP?15:35
ttxhttps://www.openstack.org/summit/vancouver-2018/summit-schedule/events/21791/weareopenstack-diversity-happy-hour-rsvp-required15:35
ttxI can ask15:35
fungithat seems a much better way of promoting inclusiveness in the community than having what might be construed as an expensive and exclusive leadership dinner15:35
smcginnisTrue15:36
mugsieIt is no core party though15:36
* mugsie ducks15:36
fungii rsvp'd for that back when spotz first mentioned it on the ml (i forget which one... might have been foundation@?)15:36
smcginnisProblem is it doesn't seem I can bring my spouse along since you need to register.15:37
cdentsmcginnis: yeah, same problem15:39
cdentwhich is why I'll have to take you to donner15:40
cdentand dinner too15:40
fungii like donner better15:40
smcginnisAnd my wife can buy your wife dinner. Still a good plan. ;)15:40
fungiwe could throw a donner party15:40
smcginnisHaha, I was trying not to go there.15:41
* fungi probably shouldn't have, but couldn't resist the temptation15:41
fungii mean, it's roughly the right part of the continent15:41
cdentoffice hours a bit slow lately15:50
cdenti guess after summit they might kick up again. given the level of "let's be active" in the campaigning I hope that's the case15:50
cdentwe should be vociferously arguing all day long or something15:51
smcginnisI can say for my part, I am way too distracted with Summit and Forum prep than I would like to be.15:51
* cdent nods15:51
cdentI will be in that state soon enough15:52
smcginnisI'm travelling next week too, so I need to try to wrap up what I can this week.15:52
cdentyou are a busy person15:54
fungiyeah, i predict that probably a week after summit when we've mostly recovered from the frenzy, we'll be back to our chatty selves again15:54
ttxsmcginnis: No need to RSVP for dinner, the TC+UC+Staff+Board group is accounted for16:19
smcginnisttx: OK, thanks!16:23

dhellmannas far as the length of time about deciding about adjutant; I'm not sure what to do there. I hadn't even heard about the project before the application, which is just my own ignorance but it's not like I could have formed an opinion more quickly. Maybe one thing we need to be doing is outreach for new projects as they are added to project-config.19:00
