15:02:33 <vbellur> bswartz: hello
15:02:51 <bswartz> anyone else join?
15:03:09 <bswartz> hmm I'd expected some new people
15:03:17 <bswartz> we've certainly be advertising the meeting
15:03:46 <bswartz> it's just as well however since we don't really have development moving along yet

15:04:07 <bswartz> hi navneet
15:04:13 <navneet> hi Ben
15:04:20 <samf> I'm here
15:04:22 <bswartz> esker: are you here
15:04:25 <bswartz> ?
15:04:49 <vbellur> we need esker for agenda #1 ?
15:05:03 <bswartz> I'd hoped he would join
15:05:06 <bswartz> but I can cover this
15:05:15 <bswartz> So we have a launchpad project
15:05:15 <dowillia> Shamail (EMC) indicated that he had a meeting conflict and will be later or possibly miss today
15:05:17 <vbellur> samf: hi
15:05:26 <bswartz> #link https://launchpad.net/manila
15:05:52 <bswartz> there's nothing of substance there yet
15:06:11 <bswartz> I will be translating the original project plan into blueprints for that project
15:06:23 <bswartz> and assigning them to milestones to track progress
15:06:30 <vbellur> bswartz: ok
15:06:41 <bswartz> if you don't have access to something you think you should, please ask me or rob esker
15:07:09 <vbellur> ok
15:07:35 <bswartz> at least rob did grant me administratrive rights on the project so I can change what's needed
15:07:42 <bswartz> #topic resources
15:08:32 <bswartz> The only update I have from NetApp is that we're in the process of finished the paperwork to bring 2 people onboard dedicated to this project
15:08:53 <bswartz> they might be here next week, but definitely by 2 weeks from now
15:09:03 <bswartz> how are things going on the redhat side?
15:09:16 <vbellur> bswartz: Things are moving within Red Hat as well. I hope to have an update on availability timeline next week.
15:09:44 <vbellur> samf: any help that you can provide on resourcing?
15:09:48 <bswartz> vbellur: do you expect to get more than 1 person?
15:10:35 <vbellur> bswartz: yes, it does seem to be trending towards 2 folks working on manila.
15:10:49 <bswartz> excellent
15:11:04 <samf> What are we looking for exactly?  I can help with blueprints, but I need to know what else to ask for
15:11:05 <bswartz> so by next week you'll know when -- but what are you projecting?
15:11:45 <bswartz> samf: most of what we need is python coding
15:12:08 <bswartz> the work items are currently written down here:
15:12:10 <vbellur> bswartz: we can help with the refactoring from cinder to manila, evolving the glusterfs driver amongst other things..
15:12:12 <bswartz> #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ManilaProjectPlan
15:12:39 <bswartz> as I said above I'll convert this project plan into LP blueprints
15:12:53 <samf> ok, i'll let you know by next week
15:13:18 <bswartz> I'll help w/ coding too after we get our cinder features wrapped up
15:13:57 <vbellur> bswartz: ok
15:13:58 <bswartz> okay well it sounds like progress is slow, but looking positive in the near future
15:14:03 <navneet> I too am willing to contribute after the block stuff
15:14:11 <bswartz> #topic open discussion
15:14:30 <vbellur> navneet: Happy Independence Day!
15:14:32 <vbellur> :)
15:14:45 <navneet> vbellur: thanks and same to you :)
15:14:48 <bswartz> samf dowillia navneet esker: in case you don't know we have a #openstack-manila channel established
15:15:04 <bswartz> I'm nearly always there if you need to find me
15:15:17 <bswartz> so far it's been quiet, for obvious reasons
15:15:34 <bswartz> I do expect more people to get involved soon though
15:15:45 <bswartz> so that's where we will congregate outside these weekly meetings
15:16:02 <vbellur> bswartz: yes, we should get more momentum shortly.
15:16:26 <bswartz> anything else?
15:16:49 <vbellur> nothing much from me atm
15:17:15 <bswartz> okay see you next week and hope to gain steam as the havana crunch time calms down
15:17:24 <vbellur> right
