That whole thread confused me a bit. Could you describe it again for me, please? 14:12:12 now that the install guide is done, i might have more time for it 14:12:34 AJaeger: sure. the original plan for the guide (and the existing code) uses a lot of includes from other material. 14:13:14 after she sent that e-mail, we realized we need to work the other way around... that is, include new content from the networking guide. 14:13:19 so its sort of moot now 14:13:56 Thanks, now I understand 14:13:58 heh might want to repost to that thread :) 14:14:19 i have to find it 14:14:51 just to make sure people know the change 14:14:58 ok anyting else on Networking? 14:14:59 http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-docs/2014-October/005353.html 14:15:04 er 14:15:06 #link http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-docs/2014-October/005353.html 14:15:35 nothing else 14:15:35 oh related to Networking (but not the guide) I will put in an api spec to their repo 14:15:43 but that comes later 14:15:45 ok 14:15:50 #topic Installation Guides status 14:15:58 Sam-I-Am: sounds like it's as done as docs can do 14:16:05 annegentle, tell me once I can retire the compute-api etc. I can do those changes 14:16:06 ubuntu seems to mostly work with release packages 14:16:18 rdo has not provided release packages yet 14:16:18 AJaeger: awesome, thank you 14:16:23 i'll test when they come out 14:16:28 oh I thought it was the other way round, Sam-I-Am. 14:16:37 That rdo was released but not cloud-archive 14:16:47 we have one bug report about glance in the rdo packages which i think it causes by non-sane defaults (rdo does not seem to update config files) 14:16:59 there are trove install fixes 14:17:01 #link https://review.openstack.org/#/c/129573/ 14:17:12 annegentle: ubuntu is cloud-archive and they havent published a cloud-archive:juno link yet for some reason 14:17:23 but the underlying repo works and i have installed using it 14:17:43 ok cool 14:17:51 i think christian has tested most of suse, but has not updated the wiki page 14:17:51 I don't see other patches in review 14:18:05 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/JunoDocTesting 14:18:06 Yeah, berendt tested SUSE heavily and send patches 14:18:07 ok, he said he couldn't make it to this meeting 14:18:18 so we'll talk about him while he's gone :) 14:18:18 AJaeger: if you could update that wiki 14:18:20 I kid! 14:18:47 Sam-I-Am, let's ping berendt since he did the testing... 14:18:50 i still have some changes i would like to make to the guide before we officially move it to stable 14:19:05 mostly waiting on bug reports, but some other things need attention 14:19:26 okay, shall we make it a goal of Oct 31st? Or is that too soon? Trying to think if before or after Summit is better. 14:19:30 Should we make a date when we create the Juno branch - or wait? 14:19:39 AJaeger: my thinking also :) 14:19:47 AJaeger: it'd be nice to have it done by Summit time 14:19:56 But Sam-I-Am is that do-able? 14:19:59 annegentle, not on the 31st - that's too close to the summit 14:20:10 AJaeger: yeah I'll be on a plane 14:20:12 i can always backport 14:20:13 29th would work for me. 14:20:23 This time I have a short plane ride ;) 14:20:25 Sam-I-Am: you good with 29th as a goal? 14:20:28 AJaeger: nice! :) 14:20:33 a week from today 14:20:42 sure. the guide hopefully wont have major changes for a while, so backports would be easy-ish 14:21:00 i really need to test swift, but... time. 14:21:10 ceilometer and trove also need testing 14:21:11 yeah, okay. 14:21:27 but at least the more popular/core services work 14:21:28 #info Goal to cut stable/juno branch for openstack-manuals is Oct 29 2014 14:21:42 Okay anything else on install? 14:21:46 nope 14:21:49 #topic HA Guide status 14:21:55 did we manage to entice any HA-ers? 14:22:02 to join our oh-so-exciting meeting? 14:22:20 #link https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:openstack/ha-guide+status:open,n,z 14:22:29 looks like the reviews cleared out, nice 14:23:07 There are still only 7 bugs against the ha guide 14:23:29 they aren't small though, such as L3 agent revisions 14:23:57 the ha guide needs one large review and update for Juno and updated packages... 14:24:13 #info ha guide needs one large review and update for Juno and updated packages 14:24:22 needs testing during that review 14:24:45 Hopefully the interested parties have what they need to both test and doc 14:25:34 I'm not sure what else to do to enable that subteam, ideas welcome! 14:25:55 #topic Website design status 14:26:20 website design = all of the guides, the reworking of it all? 14:26:23 They've got photoshopping done, basically flat designs for both the landing page and a subpage 14:26:28 and the search results page 14:26:43 sld: you want to read the next link thoroughly to understand scope 14:26:51 #link https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GGKTKHDMc8A0jerdv-K3ql0udnxMr-j4DlhL2Cj6kcw/edit 14:27:04 you may have noticed our docs header no longer matches www 14:27:05 oooooooo awesome. thx :) 14:27:09 so the design will help with that 14:27:36 right on! 14:27:58 I'm still holding to "For content that we want to remain as a book primarily, this layout would not apply. Examples include the Install Guides, the Operations Guide, the Security Guide, and the Architecture Design Guide." 14:28:05 (that's a pull out from the brief) 14:28:13 as is this: 14:28:14 "The User Guide, Admin User Guide, Cloud Administrator Guide, High Availability Guide, Installation Guides, API Quick Start Guide, and Virtual Machine Image Guide can all go to a page-based layout." 14:28:35 so we'll see, there is progress. They're putting into html/css now 14:29:01 In a related bit of work, there's a dev team at Rackspace taking on the work of splitting out the Rackspace branding from the OpenStack branding for clouddocs-maven-plugin 14:29:02 annegentle, let's sit together in Paris and get some common understanding what page based design could mean. 14:29:15 AJaeger: for the writing? building? all of it? 14:29:27 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/1177698 14:29:28 annegentle: installation guide mentioned in both places? 14:29:30 * AJaeger has some basic ideas but many questions 14:29:30 Launchpad bug 1177698 in openstack-manuals "Implement outside the plugin a branding (dup-of: 1271685)" [Wishlist,Confirmed] 14:29:36 #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/openstack-manuals/+bug/1271685 14:29:37 Launchpad bug 1271685 in openstack-manuals "Refactor Docs toolchain to separate Transforms from Templates" [Wishlist,Confirmed] 14:29:45 those are the bugs addressed by the split 14:29:50 annegentle, first just defining what it really is. 14:30:07 AJaeger: what pages are? nav? what does the brief not answer? 14:30:12 AJaeger: you should read the book 'every page is page one' 14:30:30 annegentle: is there anywhere I can see a mockup of the new design? 14:30:44 Sam-I-Am, and discuss whether we understand it the same 14:30:45 sld: not yet, I don't want them distracted with much input right now 14:30:57 awwwww ok. :( 14:31:10 sld: it looks a lot more like what www.openstack.org looks like 14:31:22 if that helps 14:31:39 a tiny bit? ;) 14:32:12 we'll need html css before we can see much, believe me 14:32:23 anything else on the redesign? 14:33:05 #topic HOT Template Guide 14:33:34 what will it take to publish it on the docs.openstack.org landing page? 14:34:12 i think we're missing the main contributor... 14:34:29 yeah guess he'll be the judge 14:34:29 gpocentek: ping 14:34:42 They are publishing so there's that 14:35:38 ah well 14:36:43 #action annegentle to ask Gauvain when he wants to publish the HOT guides 14:37:01 #topic API docs status 14:37:27 I've got four patches in review for api specs in the -specs repos, to get rid of the -api repos 14:37:33 Keystone finished theirs for v3 today 14:37:41 I still need to do neutron and keystone v2 14:37:55 so far, so good 14:38:02 annegentle, let me know what I can do to help w/ V2 Keystone. 14:38:05 even had to code some Python to get the patches done 14:38:15 morganfainberg: I think I have the content, just need to make the patch, thanks! 14:38:50 morganfainberg: I have yet to see how much to chunk, meaning, how many rst files to create for the patch 14:39:09 annegentle, ack 14:39:25 thank you AJaeger for offering to help with deletion 14:39:46 Also want to be sure you all know there are 20 REST API definitions in integrated and incubating projects 14:39:52 annegentle, if we should declare a soft-freeze on the repos, please tell everybody! 14:39:58 so this is one way to offload docs maintenance 14:40:11 AJaeger: good point. No one really patches those though :) 14:40:57 still 14:41:15 #action annegentle to add a soft-freeze declaration to this week's What's Up Doc 14:41:21 #topic Doc tools status 14:41:45 So I mentioned this earlier, that the split of transforms from build will happen soon 14:41:56 I'm taking on the testing tasks but will welcome assistance of course :) 14:42:06 we'll be able to see it in the reviews 14:42:25 timing wise, there's no predictability for which will happen first, the redesign or the split 14:42:47 so I'm kind of just being zen about it, otherwise it's crazy-making trying to coordinate/aline 14:42:50 align 14:43:09 we did have an increment on openstack-doc-tools 14:43:10 :) 14:43:28 for the sitemap 14:43:32 and I deleted all of /grizzly 14:43:41 I think that's it for doc tools -- anything else AJaeger? 14:43:43 * AJaeger regenerated the sitmeap 14:43:54 everything green on tools ;) 14:44:15 AJaeger: cool. Any news from the -infra work? I saw their meeting notes yesterday saying they hadn't gotten the swift idea working yet? 14:44:35 annegentle, correct - so no progress on docs.o.o move 14:44:44 okay 14:44:55 heh it could also be in there with the redesign :) 14:44:57 ok 14:45:01 #topic Open discussion 14:45:03 anything else? 14:45:04 annegentle, but it's on their weekly agenda ;) 14:45:13 AJaeger: yeah they are being diligent! 14:45:22 yeah... 14:45:24 i have a few things 14:45:35 i put 'upgrades' in the agenda but i guess it was overlooked 14:45:36 I would like to hear discussion on the project liaisons and scaling 14:45:41 sorry didn't see it Sam-I-Am 14:46:07 ah, had to refresh 14:46:08 as per the usual, we move from install to upgrade post-release. it goes into the ops guide for now. 14:46:14 ready to move it out? 14:46:19 separate guide or with install guide? 14:46:54 people seem to be looking at the install guide for how to upgrade, but they're completely different operations 14:47:24 not a fan of guide proliferation 14:47:36 Do we need to add a paragraph pointing to the ops guide? 14:48:15 we could do that too. however, if upgrade stick in the ops guide, i would like to use better markup. 14:48:22 the stuff we did for the print book is messy and gross 14:48:35 and if we dont plan to publish it again... 14:48:46 dead tree makes no sense for something with a 6 month release cycle 14:49:38 so... 14:49:42 Sam-I-Am: disagree on the last point but agree we can move upgrades out. I'd prefer its own guide. Sounds like you think so too? 14:50:01 that or the admin guide. 14:50:16 it just needs to go somewhere :) 14:50:30 ah, could be admin guide 14:50:31 sure 14:50:40 is this a blueprint for next release then? 14:50:49 Upgrades sounds like something for a page design ;) 14:50:59 heh overload overload! 14:51:13 AJaeger: its sort of both. 14:51:38 now I'm confused - let's solve in Paris... 14:51:52 haha, sure i wont be there 14:52:27 annegentle: for now, where do you want me to stash the content? 14:52:33 since it'll probably happen sooner than later 14:53:26 Not? I'll miss you, Sam-I-Am ! 14:53:45 i can always join irc or something if there's a meeting i need to be in 14:53:59 etherpads, etc 14:54:39 drinking a beer via irc or etherpad might be difficult ;) 14:54:54 Sam-I-Am: thinking 14:56:17 heh 14:56:34 this stuff shouldnt be hard... 14:57:04 Sam-I-Am: I think: 1 patch to move upgrade chapter to install guide 14:57:09 Sam-I-Am: then do your cleanup patch 14:57:19 Sam-I-Am: and I can even take on those two if you want 14:57:30 Sam-I-Am: then patch for the actual steps 14:57:33 Sam-I-Am: does that work? 14:57:39 annegentle: so move the havana-icehouse content to icehouse install guide? 14:57:48 Augh versions 14:57:52 and then make a new place for icehouse-juno in the juno guide? 14:57:57 This is why it should be an unversioined separate guide 14:57:57 and Juno install guide would contain only icehouse-juno? 14:57:58 yeah :/ 14:58:05 yes it would 14:58:06 yeah, as Sam-I-Am said. 14:58:07 unversioned separate guide I think is better. 14:58:26 people would need to follow each incremental upgrade 14:58:29 then we just delete chapters as the version EOLs 14:58:33 i'm not about to test all permutations 14:58:37 nope 14:58:50 want me to do the patch for seprate guide? 14:58:53 yes, eoling make sense. do we keep the last eol'd version? 14:59:03 so right now we'd still have havana->icehouse 14:59:12 but grizzly goes bye 14:59:35 right 14:59:54 is that better for maintenance and people finding it? 14:59:55 annegentle: feel free to create the guide... and perhaps copy/move the havana-icehouse content from the ops guide? 15:00:06 i think so. we can always consolidate later. 15:00:09 right 15:00:19 right now its more about content than the organizational stuffs 15:00:23 AJaeger: does that work? see any problems with standing up another guide? 15:00:30 its not super obvious in the ops guide 15:00:40 annegentle, I just need to add it to transifex - no problem at all... 15:01:08 okie doke 15:01:11 annegentle, just go ahead - and please let me approve the patch to setup transifex first. 15:01:18 #action annegentle to pull upgrade info from ops guide 15:01:21 sure 15:01:29 ok anything else? gotta give up the room 15:01:31 but no problem if somebody approves it. 15:01:39 annegentle, go party! 15:01:41 continue in #openstack-doc 15:01:44 #endmeeting
