opendevreviewJay Faulkner proposed openstack/governance master: Retire ironic-inspector from bare metal program  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/96347000:17
mnasiadkatonyb: I can do biweekly, I just had to choose something ;)04:17
tonybLOL fair enough :)05:52
noonedeadpunkgouthamr: I'm fine if it would be monthly. I think we can adjust if we have more agenda then we can chew anytime07:48
spotz[m]mnasiadka: and any other tc-members attending Summit if we want to get a time slot in the Open Source Pavillion here's the sign up - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Cbj7ljYsOFzjz_a_fLOT3kb_9EePzPwESjfw8Qf0M0o/edit?usp=sharing14:22
noonedeadpunko/14:30
noonedeadpunkI'd think it would be great to have some time for people reaching to TC14:31
noonedeadpunkno idea how many will show up though in fact...14:31
noonedeadpunkButwe'd totally need promote and try to motivate more contributors to run for TC14:32
noonedeadpunkSo I think we should do that. Sunday before lunch seems quite empty, so maybe we can book some smaller slot there?14:33
mnasiadkaWell, I’m happy to be available then14:55
mnasiadkaI think we need just to decide on the slot - Sat 10:00 - 11:00, 12:00 - 12:40, Sun 10:00 - 11:00, 11:00 - 12:00, 12:00 - 12:40 - these are avail slots14:57
mnasiadkaDo we want one, or one on Sat and one on Sun?14:58
*** gmaan_pto is now known as gmaan16:00

noonedeadpunkmnasiadka: Sat before lunch I won't be able to make it16:45
noonedeadpunkSo Sun is the only option for me at least16:46

cardoehello sorry17:02
gouthamrhey there, lets get started17:03
gouthamr#topic Last Week's AIs17:03
gouthamrwe took one on Venus and Vitrage governance changes17:03
gouthamr#link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/963227 (Mark Vitrage project-team inactive)17:04
gouthamr#link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/963228 (Mark Venus project-team inactive)17:04
gouthamrthese could use some more RC votes17:05
gouthamrwe still don't have any update on the Monasca retirement, but, a current maintainer needs a release17:05
gouthamrthe discussion is happening here:17:06
gouthamr#link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/953671 (Retire Monasca project)17:06
gouthamri was under the impression that this was possible by proposing a change to the releases repo17:06
noonedeadpunkthis totally should be possible17:07
noonedeadpunkor well, technically at least17:07
gouthamrthe last release was in 2023, i'm not sure what release tooling is missing for it17:08
noonedeadpunkAs then releases team need to sign-off under the relase request coming from non-PTL or release liason17:08
gouthamryes17:08
gouthamrelodilles: could you please take a look at the change and comment? 17:08
gouthamrideally thuvh would request the release themselves - but probably hasn't done one so far, so might need some help with the process17:09
gouthamrthe next AI was about scheduling the APAC/EU friendly meeting, lets discuss that in a separate ytopic17:11
gouthamrwe had an AI about refreshing the TC liaison for Freezer, Oslo, Release Management, and Requirements17:11
gouthamrdidn't have any volunteers so far, but i can propose a change and throw in some names17:11
gouthamrthe next one was around the skyline self-nomination17:12
opendevreviewMichal Nasiadka proposed openstack/governance master: Propose mnasiadka as tc-liaison for requirements and release  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/96398917:12
mnasiadkagouthamr: I forgot to run ‘git review’ ;-)17:13
gouthamr\o/ mnasiadka 17:13
mnasiadkaThank you for reminding17:13
gouthamr#link https://lists.openstack.org/archives/list/openstack-discuss@lists.openstack.org/message/LQM6KZMD5BXJL477HODHYZ77RNDEIEKH/17:13
gouthamr^ cardoe are you familiar with this contributor17:13
cardoeA little bit.17:13
noonedeadpunkisn't that up to project PTL to decide on this one?17:13
cardoeHe works at Rackspace. I've spoken with Sowmya much more.17:14
noonedeadpunkas I can recall they were asking for help with reviews lately?17:14
gouthamryeah, the only thing i was thinking about doing was asking the PTL/existing cores to respond17:14
noonedeadpunk++ yes, makes sense then17:14
cardoeI've told anyone that wants to join that they need to start reviewing patches.17:15
noonedeadpunkI'd also say that 3 month is quite a short term...17:15
noonedeadpunkBut still would expect at least some feedback from PTL17:15
gouthamryeah, lets bump the thread17:15
gouthamrthat's all the AIs i was tracking17:16
gouthamrwas anyone else working on anything/17:16
gouthamr#topic TC Meeting Preferences 17:17
gouthamrty for filling out the survey17:17
gouthamrpending fr i ckler's opinion, we have some data to help us with the new meeting slot17:18
gouthamrfor one, this meeting will continue to stay at 1700 UTC on Tuesdays.. except, at a regular cadence, we'll move to a different time that's friendlier to EU/APAC attendance17:19
gouthamrfrom the survey, The single most preferred time slot is Tuesdays 0800-0900 UTC.17:19
gouthamrthe only people that can't make it there are spo tz, myself and cardoe 17:19
gouthamrwhich, is understandable17:19
gouthamrand in terms of cadence, seem to be okay with a monthly or a bi-weekly slot - it was hard to tell.. mnasiadka is okay with running the meeting either case; noonedeadpunk prefers that we stick to a monthly meeting17:21
gouthamr(at this "alternate" time)17:21
gouthamronly downside is that we can't "meet" with tonyb more than a handful of times17:21
cardoeAs long http://tiny.cc/os-tc-dash continues to track patches and changes we need to converse over I think its fine.17:22
noonedeadpunkgouthamr: I think I didn't mind much the cadence17:22
noonedeadpunkhttps://meetings.opendev.org/irclogs/%23openstack-tc/%23openstack-tc.2025-10-14.log.html#openstack-tc.2025-10-14.log.html#t2025-10-14T07:48:0017:23
gouthamrwow my client missed a lot of chatter there17:24
noonedeadpunkI voted for be-weekly originally though17:24
gtemahonestly I did not understood the scope for such meeting17:24
gouthamr+1 on the thought that we'd start with something and adjust17:26
gouthamrgtema: it's so that folks on the eastern hemisphere can also have a sync meeting 17:26
noonedeadpunk^17:26
gouthamrokay, i'll work with mnasiadka and we'll propose changes to the irc-meetings repo and the wiki17:27
noonedeadpunkand encourage participation in comminuty life17:27
gtemaI mean is that as a replacement for the regular meeting, a "yet another meeting", or meeting to improve personal relations, ...17:27
noonedeadpunkI think yet another meeting to improve personal relations?17:27
gouthamrlol :P 17:27
mnasiadkaMeetings improve personal relations?17:27
mnasiadkaWell, anyway17:28
gtemaespecially the ones at 9:00 :-)17:28
gouthamrgtema: this meeting will occur in a EU/APAC friendly timezone some weeks - so a replacement, no new slot17:28
fungii'll note that last time this challenge directly led to the tc not holding meetings and going completely async17:28
mnasiadkaSo, let me get this straight - by biweekly we mean we use sort of the existing slot every 2 week, and the EU/APAC friendly on the alternate week?17:29
noonedeadpunkbut then iirc anything stopped happening at all?17:29
gouthamrgtema: its always coffee time somewhere, and tea time someplace else, beer time elsewhere, and night cap time everywhere else.. as long as you're hydrated17:29
gouthamrmnasiadka: yes17:29
mnasiadkafungi: I have a feeling there will be these two meeting slots and some async, but if full async ended badly - probably this is what we should try out17:29
noonedeadpunkaha, ok, I thought it'll be another one17:29
noonedeadpunkon top of existing17:29
gouthamrno sir, no more meetings :D 17:30
mnasiadkanoonedeadpunk: two meetings on the same day? Oh come on...17:30
gouthamrokay, looks like we can continue this discussion after the meeting and make some changes, ty everyone17:31
gouthamroh, on the question of whether we need to continue our video meetings17:31
gouthamrwe had no "Yes" answers17:31
gouthamrthere were two of you that said "No"17:31
gouthamrand the rest said it didn't matter to you17:31
gouthamrso, i think with the alternate meeting slot kicking in, we can sunset video meetings and bring them back ad-hoc/on-demand17:32
gouthamrany objections there?17:32
gtemano objections from me17:32
* gouthamr will not miss video converting, thumbnail crafting, uploading, linking minutes, tracking youtube stats :D 17:33
* gouthamr heh, will have to do that for PTG anyway17:33
mnasiadkaSeems like a job for video editor ;-)17:33
gouthamrhaha, welp17:34
gouthamr#topic A call for PTG Topics (gouthamr)17:34
gouthamr#link https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/oct2025-ptg-os-tc17:34
gouthamr^ this is my periodic call out for topics please :) 17:34
gouthamrand please do look at the slots, if you have objections, let me know..17:34
gouthamrwe're meeting on Tuesday and Friday between 1600 and 1800 UTC17:35
gouthamrhoping there's little to no overlap there, but i get nervous any time i see nova, neutron, ironic sessions overlapping :D 17:35
gouthamrand the eventlet-removal hour is at 1500 UTC 17:36
gouthamron Tuesday17:36
gouthamrif you have any concerns with these, now's the time to scramble and fix it - after this week, it'll be unlikely to make any changes17:37
gouthamranything else to note for $topic17:37
gouthamr#topic Runtime / job changes for Gazpacho17:38
gouthamrwe've made a few demands through our runtime update:17:38
gouthamr#link https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/runtimes/2026.1.html17:38
gouthamrtl;dr:17:39
gouthamrpython 3.13 job should be voting17:39
gouthamrpython 3.14 job should be created, non-voting17:39
gouthamrgrenade skip-level should be active, "grenade" job base updates17:39
clarkbyou can get 3.13 from debian trixie nodes. 3.14 will probably require using pyenv to build a python currently17:40
gouthamri see, but, we currently have 3.13 running on ubuntu-noble17:40
gouthamrjust non-voting17:41
gouthamr#link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/openstack-zuul-jobs/+/958617 (Prepare the job template for 2026.1 testing runtime)17:41
clarkbI wonder if that is using pyenv too. Thats fine if it works17:41
clarkbyou'd do something similar for 3.1417:41

gouthamr#link https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/tempest/+/961916 17:42
gouthamr^ some relevant changes17:42
gmaanyeah, I will be checking those today if anything (rebase, recheck) needed to merge those17:43
gouthamr++ ty, no rush gmaan 17:43
gouthamrgmaan: was there anything that needed attention from the TC this week?17:44
gmaanno, I removed the -W from job template so that is ready to merge17:44
gmaanfrickler is already +2 there and fungi or clarkb can merge it https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/openstack-zuul-jobs/+/95861717:45
gouthamrperfect, ty.. 17:46
gouthamr#topic Old changes in TC repos 17:46

gouthamr^ grr, the link broke, but please see it on the agenda17:48
gouthamrhttps://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/TechnicalCommittee#Agenda17:48
gouthamri think we could post a generic comment that these changes are stale and abandon them17:49
gouthamrand i think we've been wanting to do something about the SIGs17:50
gouthamrtonyb had a question at the end:17:51
gouthamrI'd appreciate ideas on splitting up 'Misc' into a more useful grouping. (note a dashbaord can have a max of 10 groups)17:51
gouthamri think, there are some TC repos with frequent updates: project team guide, openstack-manuals for example17:51
gouthamrand some others where there aren't: api-site, governance-website, constellations, ideas 17:52
gouthamrif we clean up old/stale reviews, we could have a more meaningful dashboard17:53
mnasiadkaWhat are constellations? The readme points to a 404 URL and the updates in that repo look that it’s not really used?17:53
gouthamr"Reference configurations of OpenStack services" 17:54
clarkbyou'd probably want to check fi they are published anywhere17:54
gouthamrhmmm, mayybe we meant to work on community sourced versions of https://www.openstack.org/software/sample-configs/17:54
clarkbbut ya the idea was you run this set of services to accomplish this use case and this other set to do this different use case17:54
mnasiadkaDocs in that repo look a bit empty17:55
gouthamryeah, think it was meant to be kick started with https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/constellations/+/58621217:56
mnasiadkaSample-configs also look a bit outdated, with Kuryr in container optimised config and Sahara in Big Data17:57
gouthamryeah, its ancient history now, i do think we could use newer "user stories" and reference architectures, and possibly discover/highlight these evolving use cases17:57
gouthamrsomething a past TC probably was keen on doing, and is something we can revive if there's interest17:58
gouthamrfor one, the foundation staff's work on white papers is in a similar vein 17:58
gouthamrtime check: 1 minute17:59
gouthamrif there's any feedback to tonyb, please do provide it after the meeting17:59
gouthamr#topic Open Discussion17:59
gouthamranything to note in the minutes today?17:59
gouthamris anyone else in Paris besides noonedeadpunk mnasiadka spotz[m]? 18:00

gouthamrhope you have a great meet-and-greet in addition to this, i'll call on you to share your take on the summit next week (or the week after) 18:01
gouthamrall the best!18:01
mnasiadkaThere was a discussion before the meeting on TC in the Open Source Pavillion18:01
mnasiadkaSeems noonedeadpunk was happy to be available for a Sunday pre-lunch spot18:02
mnasiadkaI can do that as well18:02
gouthamrspotz[m]: ^ (if you're reading) 18:02

clarkbgmaan: gouthamr  do you want me to approve the change that makes python3.13 voting now? Or is better to wait with manyo f us traveling to the summit?18:03
mnasiadkaSpeaking of traveling, I have a plane tomorrow at 6am, need to go pack and get some sleep ;-)18:04
gmaanclarkb: as it impact only master, I think we can merge it. if project facing failure or block its time to fix it. also, project can make it non voting in their zuul file if they need time to fix. 18:04
clarkbok I'll appriove it now then18:04
clarkbit can also be reverted if necessary18:05
mnasiadkaspotz[m], noonedeadpunk, gtema: 11:00 - 12:00 on Sunday for the Open Source Pavillion?18:07
gtemaI have a talk at 11:3518:09
mnasiadkaThere’s also 10:00 to 11:0018:11
mnasiadkaActually let me check my talks...18:11
mnasiadkaSo for four of us - it seems 10:00 - 11:00 AM slot both on Saturday and Sunday should work18:14
mnasiadkaAs in there are no sessions then18:14
gtemaI'm fine with that18:14
mnasiadkaOk, I’ll sign us for both Sat and Sun 10 AM to 11 AM - if spotz[m] or noonedeadpunk object - we can rework it to one day ;-)18:16
mnasiadkaDone in https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Cbj7ljYsOFzjz_a_fLOT3kb_9EePzPwESjfw8Qf0M0o/edit?pli=1&gid=0#gid=018:16
gtemaGood18:18
clarkbI've ping the summit folks to ensure it ends up on the official schedule18:44
gouthamrgmaan: clarkb ty!19:27
fungisorry, was afk for the latter part of the meeting, but constellations were closely tied to governance tags back when those existed20:43
fungiit was yet another attempt at defining "core projects" while avoiding calling them that and also implying that there could be more than one "core" grouping depending on what the deployment was intended for20:44
gouthamri see; i like the aspect that today, governance extends to all of OpenStack, with no need for any elevation or special casing, whatever may be the reason - i can see that we strived hard to fight some perceptions with fire.. 20:49
fungiyeah, the foundation board was really keen on the whole "core" concept for many years20:51
fungithankfully they don't seem to be pushing on that these days, especially now that the interop wg is gone20:52
gouthamri see, ++20:52
tonybI updated tiny.cc/os-tc-dash a little22:19
tonybLooks like I/we? don't have the ability to abanon things in openstack/openstack22:24
tonybfungi: Is https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/openstack-manuals/+/905614 still relevant ?22:26
fungicheck the gerrit acl22:26
fungifor openstack/openstack perms i mean22:27
tonybfungi: I will, that's on the todo list after I get to the end of that dashbaord22:27
opendevreviewMerged openstack/project-team-guide master: Remove references to build-lower-constraints file  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/project-team-guide/+/96165422:28
fungitonyb: yes, at the moment the docs site is serving invalid google analytics tokens so useless. basically the only comment from any reviewer was suggesting it be dropped entirely, which i'd also be fine with22:29
funginote that there is/was an equivalent change for openstackdocstheme too22:29
tonybfungi: Yup I saw that and saw it has the same request to drop it.22:30
tonyband I guess as we're updating mediawiki (RSN ;P) which also has google analytics it'll come up there22:30
fungithe upshot is that it's just left broken if nobody wants the fix but also nobody works on cleaning it up22:31
tonybWell I'm less happy with that "middle" ground.  We should decide if tracking is valuable to the Foundation and/or Users.  if it is we fix it otherwise drop it.22:32
fungifoundation staff liked the popularity metrics they used to get from tracking those sites, but since it's been broken for a couple of years obviously they haven't been lately22:33
fungithe only reason i proposed those changes was because they asked me to22:34
fungii don't personally have a vested interest in either option (my browser would just block it anyway, as i'm sure would most everyone's here)22:35
tonybfungi: Yeah, I think if it's generally helpful we should fix it.  Community members that are aware can, and probably do already, block it.22:37
