14:03:28 you suggested a small tune-up to my last patch 14:03:29 there was one string change proposed, 14:03:39 should stuff like that be included, or wait to L? 14:03:48 o/ 14:03:56 edleafe: we can probably merge that 14:04:00 so any patches that are being reviewed now are deferred to L? 14:04:02 edleafe: treat it as a bug 14:04:08 johnthetubaguy: gotcha 14:04:27 n0ano: well, any that violate one of the freeze should not be merged until L 14:04:52 so if there's no string changes & no dependencies there's still time 14:04:53 mriedem: I think there is a process of exceptions in the wiki, but we are still good till the end of the day I think 14:05:15 n0ano: and no features, and no doc impact, yes, should be OK, assuming its also low ish risk 14:05:24 dims: you had your hand up? 14:05:46 johnthetubaguy: nevermind, it has 2 -1s now so ignorining 14:05:58 mriedem: ah, no worries 14:06:23 so… does anyone have strong feelings on FFEs and the process? 14:06:41 this is purely for patches that are a near miss for kilo-3 14:06:42 yes. but not productive ones. ;/ 14:07:05 #link policy changes: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/150267/ 14:07:07 johnthetubaguy: arrived late ;) 14:07:24 i'm happy with actually sticking to FFE for k-3 14:07:32 and not making a bunch of exceptions 14:07:38 *FF 14:07:41 #link low risk migration feature: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/154521/ 14:08:02 so those are the only two big ones that seem like we might want to give them till Monday to merge 14:08:16 but wondering if there are any others? 14:08:31 dansmith: any kilo-objects things left? 14:08:37 the context removal stuff all got in 14:08:50 mriedem: nope, not really 14:08:57 \o 14:08:58 I was hoping to bump object versions in kilo, 14:09:02 * bauzas waves late 14:09:03 but we have to do that right before rc1 anyway 14:09:10 and not sure it will make it since it's had no review 14:09:18 dansmith: does giving time for those two patches above seem like the right thing to do? 14:09:18 link? 14:09:47 oh to like instance object version 2.0? 14:09:54 dansmith: could you attach it to an RC1 bug, so we track it? 14:10:03 mriedem: riht 14:10:15 we can always drop it 14:10:22 dansmith: I was hoping "use migration object in RT" would merge today 14:10:27 johnthetubaguy: on the migration one, is jerdfeldt going to respind with a fix for jaypipes' comment? 14:10:37 something still unclear, what if a bugfix requires a String change ? 14:10:50 dansmith: not sure he is awake yet to answer the question, and I have pinged him 14:11:01 bauzas: that's described in the string freeze wiki 14:11:01 johnthetubaguy: okay 14:11:12 johnthetubaguy: would be awesome if he could just fix it today so we can merge today 14:11:13 mriedem: mmm, RTFD ok :) 14:11:14 bauzas: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StringFreeze 14:11:19 dansmith: I am thinking we give those two patches till monday, assuming ttx is OK with that, and we go for zero other exceptions 14:11:20 there is an exception process 14:11:27 johnthetubaguy: but yeah, that's the only one I'd want to slip 14:11:39 mriedem: thanks 14:11:43 dansmith: there was one other patch I noticed... 14:11:50 https://review.openstack.org/#/c/150267/ 14:11:55 the api policy one has a lot of changes let 14:11:57 *left 14:12:02 https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:openstack/nova+branch:master+topic:bp/v3-api-policy,n,z 14:12:15 mriedem: so given most of those are backwards compatible I think we can defer it 14:12:31 I dunno, how important is that? 14:12:31 there are more than that too https://review.openstack.org/#/q/owner:%22Alex+Xu%22+status:open,n,z 14:12:43 mriedem: the missing policy stuff would just be additions 14:12:48 mriedem: yes, the left all about db call 14:13:04 alex_xu: so I was thinking the only one we NEED for kilo is this one: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/150267/ 14:13:14 johnthetubaguy: agree 14:13:32 lxsli: I'm unsure we can merge PaulMurray's patches by today... 14:13:37 alex_xu: OK, cool, is that generally true for all the API work, it seems that way, the other bits are unit tests 14:13:44 bauzas: doesn't need PaulMurray's patches 14:13:45 that one rename all the rule name v2.1, if we change that before someone begin to use it, it will be easy for future 14:13:58 lxsli: ack 14:14:06 lxsli: bauzas: I am about to defer that all to liberty at this point, it looks too far away right now 14:14:40 alex_xu: right, it saves us having to keep the old names for compatibility, etc 14:14:41 johnthetubaguy: My patch has been ready to go for a couple of weeks, sahid's patch I was dependent on merged last week, just need some reviewer attention I think 14:14:59 johnthetubaguy, PaulMurray 's patches would be really good to land imho 14:15:01 johnthetubaguy: agreed 14:15:10 johnthetubaguy, to do a complete job of the RT objects needs some a little more work, but there is plenty that could be got through now 14:15:11 but not sure they are ready 14:15:14 the first one is 14:15:17 lxsli: agreed, just its not release critical enough to get an exception at this point 14:15:26 yeah 14:15:26 would be good to minimise what is left to do rather than have a pile left for next time 14:15:37 johnthetubaguy: sure I'll see how bribeable jaypipes is when he wakes up 14:15:54 johnthetubaguy: that said, I think we can quickly move forward and merge https://review.openstack.org/#/c/148904/ 14:15:56 problem is, the plan is cutting kilo-3 not long after this meeting 14:16:30 now we could wait a little bit for a few patches, but those ones that are bugs, we can merge after the freeze anyway 14:17:05 ndipanov: jaypipes: happy with reviewing https://review.openstack.org/#/c/148904/ 14:17:06 johnthetubaguy, note - the follow on patches from https://review.openstack.org/#/c/148904/ are ready 14:17:06 ? 14:17:13 anyways, if you folks can get me a list of what is good to merge, and how that its in the gate soon, we can see what can be done 14:17:16 if it isnt' in the gate now, realisticly it won't make it into k-3 14:17:28 johnthetubaguy, the "apparent" rebase issue is not real - they just need to go through CI again 14:17:29 please add updates to here: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/kilo-nova-priorities-tracking 14:17:38 anteaya: I know that's not yet time to ask for, but how's the gate atm ? 14:17:45 anteaya: why do you say that? it's early in the day and there are only 12 things in the queue 14:17:46 bauzas: the gate, not bad 14:17:46 anteaya: right, thats my thinking here 14:17:52 PaulMurray, please add your patches 14:17:52 check is in bad shape 14:18:00 ah 14:18:03 or not 14:18:08 not sure tbh 14:18:09 we are cleaning jenkins's now 14:18:17 anteaya: so patches could be merged in the next couple of hours if quick +W 14:18:21 anyways, lets move on.. 14:18:41 anteaya: oh ok, ack 14:18:46 what's the impact on backports if the policy permissions changes aren't merged for release? 14:18:48 I am thinking people want to get that in, but we can't call it release critical right? 14:19:03 sdague: you mean the DB ones? 14:19:08 yeh 14:19:14 johnthetubaguy, the gates seems quite empty 14:19:32 so it is not unrealistic to merge sutff if we can wait for tomorrow to cut -3 14:19:33 ndipanov: right, but the check queue is massively backlogged 14:19:54 it's less than yesterday 14:19:59 sdague, lol - yeah didn't scroll down 14:20:01 it was over 200 almost all day yesterday and we merged things 14:20:14 14h 14:20:14 dansmith: yeh, but the active node count is pretty low 14:20:36 we are working on it 14:20:39 and that has changed? 14:20:39 also, the openssl bug drops today, so I expect a lot of things might go offline when that is fixed 14:20:52 sdague: OK, the db stuff is a good question, I just worry about trying to loosen the DB checks quickly at the end of a release 14:21:24 I mean - if it were up to me I'd say - whatever is merged by monday morning gets a pass but not sure if that is reasonable johnthetubaguy ? 14:21:50 johnthetubaguy: yeh, that's a good question 14:21:51 because 14h means if we let anything in it will merge by friday 14:22:08 and at that point why not wait until monday? 14:22:15 k-3 is today though... 14:22:35 right 14:22:38 ndipanov: right we release kilo-3 today, and the freeze activates, so the translation folks, etc get to work 14:23:04 johnthetubaguy: any idea when the packaging is done ? 14:23:08 well in that case I guess what's in is in... 14:23:26 bauzas: shouldn't matter 14:23:32 bauzas: in a few hours, we will tag and create the package, once I say yes to ttx, basically 14:23:34 that's up to the packagers 14:23:49 we have lots of time for bug fixes 14:23:51 mriedem: I was speaking about tagging and wheeling it 14:24:14 I just all the co-ordination stuff starts now ish, and I don't want to derail those folks 14:24:18 like tranlations, etc 14:24:19 mriedem: of course, not what downsteam packagers do 14:24:20 anyways 14:24:28 #topic kilo priorities 14:24:30 yep, fair 14:24:34 I think we covered all this really 14:24:44 #topic gate status 14:24:58 i'm not aware of any major gate blockers atm, at least from nova 14:25:00 mriedem: nothing major here I guess? 14:25:01 cools 14:25:10 neutron loves it some dbdeadlock though 14:25:18 #topic Open discussion 14:25:21 so... https://review.openstack.org/#/c/150929/ is probably a thing we should actually push into the gate right? 14:25:26 we seem all agreed 14:25:30 ndipanov: the jobs at 14hours wait are actually jobs that got stuck on the wrong jenkins node 14:25:42 and being in k3 seems to be better than not being in k3 14:25:49 sdague: +1 14:25:49 current delay is more 1h45 14:25:53 sdague: +1 14:26:01 should I wombat it? 14:26:17 yes please 14:26:24 it has a ton of +2s, and ttx is +1 on it 14:26:42 and mikal 14:26:46 yep 14:26:47 and everyone else :) 14:26:53 let it be so 14:27:05 mikal in ton_of_plus_2s == True 14:27:18 (barring the -2 fast revert, which I will ignore) 14:27:32 thats the highest level of consensus we can get really 14:27:44 and it support what the ec2 folks want to do, it seems 14:27:50 cool, 14:27:55 so anything more people have? 14:28:09 when will the blueprint repo be open for L? I'd like to move my not-K-driver to L as soon as possible. 14:28:11 could use some help with bugs :) 14:28:15 the wiki was left old from the last meeting, which didn't help things 14:28:26 flip214: it's already open IIUC 14:28:28 flip214: its open as of a few weeks back I think 14:28:46 are we going to setup an etherpad for session topics at Vancouver? 14:28:51 there was an ML message from mikal on that 14:29:03 n0ano: yes we should start that soon 14:29:24 #action mikal to kick start etherpad for vancouver 14:29:28 johnthetubaguy: I was thinking that mikal was waiting the new PTL election ? 14:29:37 johnthetubaguy: so, is it a good idea to push the blueprint right now? 14:30:02 with the same ID as the one for K? I believe that one's abandoned, so generating a new one might be better. 14:30:06 when is the PTL election? 14:30:17 soonish 14:30:31 oh, true 14:30:47 April 10 - April 16: PTL elections 14:30:50 edleafe: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/PTL_Elections_April_2015 14:30:54 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/PTL_Elections_April_2015 14:30:55 flip214: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-March/058107.html 14:30:59 eh 14:31:03 lol, thats covered then 14:31:05 mikal doesn't need to be PTL to create an etherpad for summit topics... 14:31:12 johnthetubaguy: yes ahaha 14:31:23 anteaya: thank you. 14:31:24 mriedem, +1, that's awfully late to start the discussion 14:31:26 flip214: welcome 14:31:30 mriedem: +1 but I know he doesn't like to overstep his mark 14:31:38 is there a "previously-approved-in-paris" tag, too? 14:31:40 jogo can start it then :) 14:31:42 OK… seems like we are done for today 14:31:50 happy bug fixing time to all 14:32:03 #info please look out for RC1 critical bugs 14:32:08 one thing I forgot... 14:32:16 we need to find bugs that will stop us release kilo 14:32:25 and ideally target them for RC1, etc 14:32:28 johnthetubaguy: are we beginning to tag bugs for RC1 ? 14:32:29 meh 14:32:32 https://launchpad.net/nova/+milestone/kilo-3 14:32:49 https://launchpad.net/nova/+milestone/kilo-rc1 14:33:06 there are 3 bugs in rc1 tag already 14:33:13 mriedem: good point, we should defer those unimplemented bugs to rc1 14:33:33 well, or see if they are really stopship bugs 14:33:35 mriedem: yeah, just looking at kilo-3 bugs, we have some critical i didn't notice befrore :S 14:33:51 can folks just check if any should block kilo-3 14:33:59 mriedem: well, that's bug fixing time, not yet RC dance right ? 14:34:20 mriedem: I was thinking that only criticals were acceptable for RC2+ 14:34:26 but RC1 is pretty free, nope 14:34:28 ? 14:34:37 bauzas: still need to spot the release critical ones, and target them for RC1 14:34:40 right 14:34:45 you shouldn't go into rc expecting rc2 14:34:55 if you hvae known critical bugs, they should be targeted for rc1 14:34:59 technically, we just rc1 when there are no bugs targeted for rc1 14:34:59 assuming rc1 is the final 14:35:06 mriedem: +100 14:35:09 what about low bugs ? 14:35:15 i've had this fun conversation internally many times 14:35:18 bauzas: don't target them 14:35:41 johnthetubaguy: ok, then we drop the target of those if they were k3 14:36:21 bauzas: thats my next task, untarget stuff people have targeted to k3, but didn't have to 14:36:32 okay 14:37:08 OK, so are we done now? 14:37:24 as always, any release-y questions, feel free to ping my and ask 14:37:28 thanks all 14:37:33 happy bug fixing 14:37:37 #endmeeting
