I will more see on this. 16:36:25 if that version is too old, we can follow up with infra? 16:36:57 though mitaka is eol, so not sure if we want to spend too much time on that 16:37:37 pkovar: infra has nothing to do with that. 16:37:48 It's test-requirements - and that's what we control. 16:38:07 ah, so just update that? cool 16:38:19 pkovar, after Mitaka, there have been some requirement changes. Such changes are fine with eol branches? 16:38:20 Past experience has shown that newer sphinx needs changes to RST files as well, so if you update, you'll need to fix some files as well 16:38:50 good point 16:38:58 And some bindep.txt modification 16:39:20 a test build would be need to assess the volume of editing work required 16:39:39 to tweak the RSTs 16:40:13 ianychoi: if it's under our control, i think it's fine 16:41:00 pkovar, aha good :) 16:44:07 okay, if there are more comments, lets discuss here later or in -dev 16:44:08 #topic Bug Triage Team 16:44:21 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/SpecialityTeams 16:44:41 thanks goes to chason who volunteered for this week 16:44:43 Nothing more currently - ah https://review.openstack.org/#/c/525187/ - thank u chason 16:45:25 if more people are interested in bug triaging, please sign up 16:45:36 pkovar Hahah 16:45:54 or file bugs :) 16:46:24 pkovar ianychoi yw :) 16:46:50 pkovar BTW, I have signed up this position, https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/First_Contact_SIG#Project_Liaisons 16:47:06 excellent, thanks chason 16:47:33 #info chason signed up for https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/First_Contact_SIG#Project_Liaisons 16:47:50 +1 :) 16:48:10 #action file bugs, triage bugs, repeat 16:48:27 pkovar np.
