16:02:53 <priteau> Hi mppowers
16:03:06 <mppowers> Hello priteau
16:04:38 <priteau> Should we expect Jason?
16:04:41 <mppowers> Yes
16:06:19 <diurnalist> the one time i was actually on time for this meeting it was last week, when it was not held :D
16:06:25 <diurnalist> sorry
16:07:08 <priteau> Hello :D
16:07:28 <priteau> So the topic for today is obviously
16:07:31 <priteau> #topic Yoga release
16:07:47 <priteau> 24 February, 2022 is the Yoga-3 milestone.
16:08:02 <priteau> Which means:
16:08:09 <priteau> Feature freeze and Final release for client libraries
16:08:22 <priteau> And also
16:08:30 <priteau> Soft StringFreeze
16:08:30 <priteau> Requirements freeze
16:08:30 <priteau> Yoga Community Goals Completed
16:08:32 <priteau> Cycle Highlights
16:09:25 <priteau> So, looking at all these
16:09:43 <priteau> We've made a good dent in merging patches, thanks a lot for your effort
16:10:05 <priteau> The main part missing is the combined RPC layer + third party plugins
16:10:18 <priteau> (now in merge conflcit)
16:10:39 <priteau> Given they are massive patches, what do you think of postponing them to the beginning of the Zed cycle?
16:10:55 <mppowers> Yes, I think that will be necessary
16:11:12 <diurnalist> third party plugins definitely. I thought RPC layer was basically ready to go, but I guess not?
16:12:02 <mppowers> It is ready, other than the merge conflict. I can try fixing it today if there is going to be time to review
16:12:02 <priteau> Gerrit is very picky with merge conflicts nowadays, it may require just a git rebase
16:12:28 <opendevreview> Mark Powers proposed openstack/blazar master: Remove RPC layer from API  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/blazar/+/820255
16:12:43 <mppowers> It looks like rebase fixed it
16:13:29 <diurnalist> i guess it hasn't gotten a full review from pierre or i yet actually. so, given there may be some minor changes, probably also not reasonable at this point to sneak in
16:13:47 <diurnalist> for some reason i thought it already had CR +2 at least
16:14:35 <priteau> You probably reviewed it on GitHub
16:14:48 <priteau> I skimmed through it but not done full review and testing
16:15:22 <priteau> If we can review it in the next few days, we could merge it under Feature Freeze Exception
16:16:24 <priteau> But we got the new features in: basic support for preemptibles, host properties, calendar
16:16:32 <priteau> I think that's the most important
16:16:40 <priteau> Thanks a lot for all your work on this
16:17:56 <diurnalist> yes, strong release
16:18:38 <priteau> Final release for client libraries: done
16:18:47 <priteau> python-blazarclient 3.4.0 released earlier today
16:18:50 <priteau> https://pypi.org/project/python-blazarclient/
16:19:53 <priteau> Soft StringFreeze: this is for translation, but I don't think there are any for blazar so not really important
16:20:15 <priteau> Requirements freeze: I don't think we need new requirements in any patch we might merge in the next couple of weeks
16:21:42 <priteau> Yoga Community Goals Completed: there are no goals for this release
16:21:58 <priteau> There will be activities around secure and consistent RBAC in the future
16:22:23 <priteau> #link https://governance.openstack.org/tc/goals/selected/consistent-and-secure-rbac.html
16:22:30 <priteau> But that's for another day
16:22:59 <priteau> Finally, Cycle Highlights have been merged: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/releases/+/830699
16:23:49 <priteau> So with the exception of the RPC patch if we can merge it quickly, from now until RC1 we should be focusing on testing and bug fixing
16:25:11 <priteau> This is week of March 7
16:25:16 <priteau> Sounds good?
16:25:50 <diurnalist> sounds good!
16:26:30 <priteau> I also wanted to talk about stable releases
16:26:36 <priteau> #topic Stable releases
16:27:33 <priteau> It would be nice to have fewer bugs in our previous releases
16:28:09 <priteau> So I have submitted a bunch of them for xena
16:28:18 <priteau> Could you please review? https://review.opendev.org/q/project:openstack/blazar+branch:stable/xena+status:open
16:28:24 <mppowers> sounds good
16:28:43 <priteau> I may want to do the same for wallaby, as long as things cherry-pick cleanly
16:30:23 <priteau> It would be helpful for people who don't want to be running the master branch
16:30:57 <priteau> #topic AOB
16:31:02 <priteau> Anything else to discuss today?
16:31:47 <mppowers> nothing else from me
16:34:04 <priteau> We can wrap up then, thanks a lot!
