(owner needed)" 16:10:21 <pkovar> someone eager enough to give it a try (ie. own it)? 16:11:14 <pkovar> please let me know or just go ahead and submit a patch, otherwise i will take it :) 16:11:24 <eumel8> btw: we restore also language specific landing pages? like https://docs.openstack.org/mitaka/de/ 16:11:30 <pkovar> (later this week) 16:12:03 <pkovar> eumel8: looks like we don't mention it in the spec 16:12:37 <pkovar> eumel8: is that something the i18n team wants to restore? 16:12:46 <eumel8> mhm, I will check this later and ask the language teams about the opinions 16:12:56 <pkovar> ok, thanks eumel8 16:13:17 <jamesmcarthur> It seems like it would be good to have the language versions restored as well. 16:13:26 <pkovar> #action eumel8 to ask the language teams about restoring language landing pages 16:13:50 <pkovar> yes, though i think we would need a new owner for those patches 16:14:03 <pkovar> ie. a volunteer :) 16:15:21 <pkovar> #info Flagging deprecated releases 16:15:22 <pkovar> #link http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2017-October/123381.html 16:15:38 <pkovar> jamesmcarthur: do you know if there is an update? 16:15:53 <jamesmcarthur> Yes, that's me. I'm sorry to say I haven't made any progress. It is high on my list, but I have been buried with other Foundation work. 16:16:20 <jamesmcarthur> I'd like to have a patch ready for review within the next few weeks. 16:16:33 <pkovar> help needed? or are we clear on what is the next step/deliverable? (hate that word) 16:16:43 <pkovar> jamesmcarthur: sounds good thanks! 16:17:09 <jamesmcarthur> Doug has already volunteered to answer any questions for me when the time comes. 16:17:24 <pkovar> jamesmcarthur: do we plan to flag all content, not just deprecated releases? 16:17:32 <jamesmcarthur> I have the HTML and CSS ready, just need to get the patch in. 16:17:56 <eumel8> we don't use watermarks? 16:17:58 <pkovar> #info jamesmcarthur to work on patch, dhellmann to help with Q's. 16:18:01 <jamesmcarthur> pkovar: i thought the request was just for all docs pertaining to a depreacted release 16:18:13 <pkovar> jamesmcarthur: correct 16:18:27 <jamesmcarthur> deprecated, sorry 16:18:33 <pkovar> flagging all releases was just an idea in the thread i think 16:18:42 <jamesmcarthur> eumel8: that's another option 16:19:05 <jamesmcarthur> the idea was to do something a bit more "in your face" so people could tell from the get go that the contnet was bad 16:19:08 <pkovar> we can iterate i think :) 16:19:13 <eumel8> saw this in project doc like https://docs.openstack.org/openstack-ansible/latest/ 16:19:29 <eumel8> yeah, a red banner is more visible 16:19:34 <pkovar> yeah, like a flow banner 16:19:41 <eumel8> k 16:20:04 <jamesmcarthur> eumel8: probably wouldn't hurt to do both, in the event someone prints it out 16:20:08 <pkovar> so that ppl see it even when following deep links 16:20:20 <jamesmcarthur> though... do people really print things out anymore? 16:20:39 <pkovar> hard to say but we do provide pdfs 16:20:46 <pkovar> for core suite, that is 16:21:23 <jamesmcarthur> pkovar: ok, good to know 16:21:59 <pkovar> ianychoi worked on spec to provide pdfs build for more content, btw 16:22:04 <jamesmcarthur> pkovar: perhaps a subtle watermark is a good idea as well (possibly a separate patch) 16:22:25 <pkovar> jamesmcarthur: yeah, would do it as a separate patch 16:24:03 <eumel8> pdf spec: #link https://review.openstack.org/#/c/509297/ 16:24:12 <pkovar> #chair eumel8 16:24:13 <openstack> Current chairs: eumel8 pkovar 16:24:17 <pkovar> #link https://review.openstack.org/#/c/509297/ 16:24:32 <pkovar> #info pdf spec ^ 16:25:07 <pkovar> #info think about providing a watermark too, possibly as a separate patch. good for pdfs 16:25:58 <pkovar> next topic? 16:26:07 <eumel8> yes, pls 16:26:12 <pkovar> mostly as a retrospective 16:26:13 <pkovar> #topic OpenStack Summit Sydney 16:26:18 <pkovar> #info Summary of docs sessions posted 16:26:23 <pkovar> #link https://www.rdoproject.org/blog/2017/11/summary-openstack-summit-docs-sessions/ 16:26:50 <pkovar> for those who attended the summit, let me know if i missed anything 16:27:40 <pkovar> #topic Rocky PTG 16:27:47 * dhellmann arrives late 16:27:48 <pkovar> #info Planning etherpad for docs+i18n created 16:27:54 <pkovar> #link https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/docs-i18n-ptg-rocky 16:28:03 <pkovar> thanks goes to eumel8 16:28:04 <eumel8> great stuff from Sydney, thx for sharing 16:28:41 <pkovar> a Q for all of you 16:28:43 <pkovar> #info Parcel time into small chunks or have full-day focus on one team agenda? 16:28:52 <pkovar> this is from the recent -dev ML thread 16:28:59 <pkovar> what do people prefer? 16:29:59 <pkovar> or let me rephrase the Q, did the denver schedule work for us? 16:30:12 <eumel8> depends on the topics 16:30:13 <dhellmann> when is the docs team being given time to meet? on the theme days or the team days? 16:30:46 <pkovar> dhellmann: i asked for two days, but didn't specify it yet 16:30:48 <dhellmann> ok 16:31:00 <pkovar> hoping it works for i18n, eumel8? 16:31:04 <pkovar> or do we need more? 16:31:05 <dhellmann> I'd personally prefer those be on the team days 16:31:23 <dhellmann> we may need a list of topics before we know how long we'll need :-) 16:31:37 <eumel8> pkovar: you already answered the survey from Kendall? 16:31:51 <pkovar> good point, let's start gathering feedback 16:32:20 <pkovar> eumel8: yes, then realized you might as well :) 16:32:42 <eumel8> the first question was, how many people will be there and I think docs team and I18n are together as usualy 16:33:04 <pkovar> eumel8: yes, so i just recycled numbers from denver 16:33:23 <pkovar> i think it's really hard to estimate at this point 16:33:24 <eumel8> pkovar: I would mention that fact ;) read the email just now and will fill out the form later 16:33:38 <pkovar> eumel8: cool 16:34:14 <eumel8> pkovar: I would say first of all: we're there! with 8-12 people 16:34:35 <pkovar> eumel8: let's agree to start soliciting feedback on agenda now :) 16:34:42 <pkovar> eumel8: 8-12 people sounds good 16:35:19 <pkovar> #info for PTG, two days planned, ca. 8-12 people 16:35:45 <pkovar> eumel8: what's the preference wrt team days? 16:36:00 <pkovar> i am fine with what dhellmann suggests 16:36:06 <pkovar> that is, team days 16:36:13 <eumel8> sure 16:36:20 <pkovar> any objections? 16:36:59 <pkovar> #action send an email to start gathering input wrt ptg agenda 16:37:11 <pkovar> eumel8: do you want to send a separate email for i18n? 16:37:34 <pkovar> and keep agenda separate? (in the same etherpad) 16:38:03 <pkovar> we will need to work on the schedule later anyway 16:38:13 <pkovar> so this would be for the initial phase 16:38:14 <pkovar> only 16:38:17 <jungleboyj> I am planning to be at the PTG. 16:38:35 <eumel8> pkovar: you can send an email for both teams to openstack-dev, I will separate send a message to openstack-i18n 16:38:44 <eumel8> with a reference 16:38:44 <pkovar> jungleboyj: any preferences wrt meeting during team days (or not)? 16:38:57 <pkovar> eumel8: cool 16:39:10 <jungleboyj> Well, I will be busy in the Cinder meetings on Wednesday - Friday. :-) 16:39:14 <pkovar> #action pkovar to send an email for both teams to openstack-dev 16:39:25 <pkovar> right 16:39:33 <eumel8> thx 16:39:45 <pkovar> same might apply for other people 16:40:29 <jungleboyj> pkovar: ++ 16:40:45 <dhellmann> don't let my preference count as more than one; if lots more people are available on the theme days then we should meet then 16:41:21 <eumel8> ++ 16:41:40 <chason> ++ 16:41:41 <pkovar> so when getting input, let's also ask people to sign up and share their day and time preferences 16:41:53 <pkovar> then we can decide on the team's preference 16:42:00 <pkovar> sounds good? 16:42:14 <eumel8> yeah 16:42:38 <pkovar> any nay's ? :) 16:42:44 <dhellmann> sounds good 16:42:54 <pkovar> #action when getting input, let's also ask people to sign up and share their day and time preferences 16:42:54 <jungleboyj> Yay! 16:43:20 <pkovar> good good 16:43:38 <pkovar> anything else for ptg?
