I am happy to help review on a RHEL 6.4 machine. 13:33:48 RDO is the distro. 13:34:19 radsy, yes that's the pdf 13:34:39 thanks radsy 13:34:42 summerlong: radsy so when we are talking about install pkg what should we focus on 13:34:50 yum repo for openstack 13:35:01 koolhead17: http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/openstack-havana/ 13:35:16 http://openstack.redhat.com/Quickstart talks about RHEL, CentOS, Fedora, and links to http://rdo.fedorapeople.org/ for all 13:36:01 summerlong's link, actually 13:36:03 summerlong: radsy i would request you guys to double check the patch once it lands so it works for fedora/RH/Centos all 3 13:36:04 :) 13:36:50 kk, put us on as reviewers? 13:36:58 annegentle_: ^^ 13:37:02 sure 13:37:05 Ok better keep moving, let's move on to the next topic, doc tools. 13:37:11 #topic Doc Tools Update 13:37:36 The maven plugin is now at 1.11.0, so we'll try to standardize on that for Havana, but we did just do a sweep for 1.10.0 13:37:49 But, I'd like to use 1.11.0 to get the "log a bug" link on each page 13:37:52 Sound good? 13:37:59 Yes! 13:38:01 +1 13:38:17 +1 13:39:19 woo! Yet another great outcome from docs boot camp 13:39:53 definitely 13:40:38 Another note: The gating has changed, we use now tools/test.py. For details see http://jaegerandi.blogspot.de/2013/10/improving-openstack-documentation-build.html 13:40:52 AJaeger: oh thank you for blogging that! 13:40:58 #link http://jaegerandi.blogspot.de/2013/10/improving-openstack-documentation-build.html 13:41:21 AJaeger: you are doing a lot of what we talked about at boot camp, even with out attending, so it's like you're a mind reader 13:41:35 thanks, ajaeger 13:41:52 annegentle_, I'm long enough around in Open Source communities ... 13:42:03 a jaeger, --check-niceness is my new best friend. 13:42:10 AJaeger: you picked up mind reading from open source, that's a success story :) 13:42:11 :) 13:42:24 annegentle_, a miracle ;) 13:42:39 AJaeger: nice 13:42:47 Ok, that's all I had on doc tools 13:42:57 #topic Bug reports and DocImpact 13:43:01 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+milestone/havana 13:43:03 If you notice anything wrong with the tools, just ping me 13:43:08 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-api-site/+milestone/havana 13:43:39 Again, here we are in much better shape than last release and I'm comfortable with releasing docs with code, but there are still undocumented features 13:43:43 I also thought I'd talk about release notes 13:44:03 Some DocImpact things are also release note items, previously the PTLs did all the release notes on the wiki, and I think that'll continue 13:44:08 release notes also kinds of leads to *shudder* upgrades 13:44:17 sgordon: ooh shiver 13:44:43 we have a generic process/task in the ops guide obviously but each release their are per-project gotchas we need to beat out of the PTLs 13:44:50 also ttx makes sure release notes are done 13:45:04 Examples: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes/Folsom 13:45:14 https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes/Grizzly 13:45:27 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ReleaseNotes/Havana 13:45:33 ^^ those are the ones for this release 13:45:34 annegentle_: Error: "^" is not a valid command. 13:45:52 so far Keystone has the best start 13:46:09 do you have suggestions for how/if we should help? I sense that we have good data from DocImpact 13:46:57 I'll let you all read for a bit :) 13:47:21 annegentle_, this should be ready for the release, no doubt. we need to try to interview ptls. 13:47:26 I'm actually putting together a "what's new in Havana" piece and having the devil's own time getting information 13:47:41 annegentle_, shouldn't we add a section about Documentation up there as well and point out the new manuals? 13:47:43 word is the release notes aren't guaranteed until the 17th 13:47:47 NickChase: yes it's not easy, please do figure out how to use that in the official rel notes 13:47:54 AJaeger: oh great idea 13:48:00 NickChase: right not at all 13:48:26 AJaeger: are you up for that or do you want me to do it? 13:48:45 What about I'll do the first shot - and you clean up afterwards? 13:48:45 annegentle_: use what in the release notes? "Whats new" or docimpact? 13:49:04 NickChase: it's a judgement call, but docimpact is a great starting point to look for new features 13:49:17 NickChase: blueprints for each project is also a good way to spelunk 13:49:32 blueprints is what we're doing, actually 13:49:35 NickChase: and mostly it's about new features and pitfalls/gotchas 13:49:40 in fact, I have an update meeting on that in 10 minutes. :) 13:49:44 NickChase: heh 13:49:58 there were several hundred to wade through. :( 13:50:20 NickChase: right, I know how it is -- and this release is staggering 13:50:26 get on their agendas and let them talk about items point by point 13:51:03 nermina: if necessary; but they're so busy I don't know if we'll even be able to. 13:51:10 but I'll have a better idea fater this next meeting. 13:51:15 they do meet on irc :) 13:51:16 nermina: yes that's always helpful, also an easier catchall is the weekly release meeting on Tuesdays at 4:00 CST 13:51:18 fwiw i have been tasked independently with going through nova blueprints 13:51:18 after, even. :) 13:51:25 there are ~90 of them implemented for havana 13:51:31 nermina: details, details. :) good idea, thanks. 13:51:46 but i can probably put together a reasonable "this is what's new" at least for that project 13:51:51 my sense of the doc bugs is that they could be grouped, like all Xen, all Neutron, and we use tags for that 13:52:10 so I feel good about the release (other than the usual nervousness about the install guide) 13:52:17 sgordon: I would be eternally grateful 13:52:20 any questions about doc bugs, docimpact? release notes? 13:52:30 NickChase: http://status.openstack.org/release/ << this is your friend 13:52:31 :D 13:52:34 sgordon: oh there's a good idea 13:53:06 koolkead17: yes, that's what we're using, thanks. :) 13:53:12 annegentle_, perhaps worth picking up a project each if people are free? a lot of the blueprints are low-quality in terms of detail but the groupings quickly become obvious 13:53:23 koolhead17: it's still intimidating as hell to try to distill :) 13:53:34 annegentle_: hahaha 13:53:39 sgordon: yes, great idea 13:53:43 sgordon, good idea 13:53:46 sgordon: which did you already do? 13:53:55 annegentle_, working through nova 13:54:00 great idea 13:54:12 i dumped the list of implemented blueprints and a spreadsheet and am working on grouping them up into areas 13:54:14 sgordon: oh yeah nova (I need to read better!) :) 13:54:18 like "cells", "scheduler" etc 13:54:20 sgordon: great idea 13:54:23 I'll take glance 13:54:28 I think we are doing Neutron 13:54:32 #action sgordon to share patterns for nova 13:54:45 #action annegentle to dive into glance new features for release notes 13:54:46 That is, i think that's what I'm going to see shortly 13:55:00 #action NickChase deep dive into Neutron new features 13:55:03 I like it 13:55:11 Ok, let's circle back next week with our findings?
