21:03:11 <efried> Rambo Is that a Rocky blueprint (I hope)?
21:03:19 <Rambo> yes
21:03:42 <efried> Okay.  JFYI, I suspect things will be quiet on the Rocky blueprint review front for the next couple of weeks.
21:04:06 <efried> I'm going to skip Reminders and Stable Branch Status unless anyone has something to bring up there?

21:12:54 <efried> Anyone have any stuck reviews to bring up?
21:13:15 <efried> #topic Open Discussion
21:13:29 <efried> I believe the topic listed on the agenda was also discussed two weeks ago.
21:13:40 <efried> Anyone have anything they want to talk about?
21:13:51 <efried> Preferably related to nova in some way.
21:14:03 * efried pre-empts a smartass comment from edleafe or jaypipes
21:14:26 <jaypipes> efried: just that I have to explain to operators that they've been doing the wrong thing w.r.t. configuration management for the past two years.
21:14:29 <jaypipes> fun.
21:14:31 * edleafe prefers dumbass comments
21:14:46 <edmondsw> he did say preferably...
21:15:26 <efried> jaypipes You referring to http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2018-January/126307.html ?
21:15:53 <jaypipes> efried: yessir.
21:16:16 <Rambo> What do you think of this bp? the link is https://review.openstack.org/#/c/510106/
21:16:17 <patchbot> patch 510106 - nova-specs - Virtual instance rescue with stable disk devices
21:16:30 <Rambo> is about rescue the server
21:16:59 <jaypipes> Rambo: as I've mentioned on the review, I'm not supportive of the idea. but I won't block others.
21:17:54 <Rambo> the bp is the previous,not mine
21:18:24 <Rambo> I think this bp is executable
21:18:50 <efried> Rambo Looks like it has some support, but didn't get approved for Queens.
21:19:06 <Rambo> yes
21:19:23 <efried> Rambo Just make sure it gets brought up again during spec review season for Rocky.
21:19:27 <edmondsw> Rambo probably a good conversation for the PTG, and repropose for Rocky
21:19:48 <efried> Rambo As I mentioned earlier, there's not likely to be much focus on Rocky blueprints for at least the next week or two.
21:19:51 <Rambo> so I want to listen to the views
21:20:23 <Rambo> I can change it to Queens,thank you
21:20:42 <efried> s/Queens/Rocky/
21:20:46 <efried> Sounds good Rambo
21:20:50 <efried> Anything else anyone?
21:20:50 <Rambo> I am really interested in this,Can you give me some advice?Thank you very much.
21:21:53 <edmondsw> Rambo I suggest you try to catch mdbooth on IRC and sync with him on that as the author
21:22:39 <efried> Okay folks, thanks for bearing with me here.  Is mriedem back next week?
21:23:07 <Rambo> yes,I will,this is about rescue,can you give me some suggestion about rebuild?
21:23:27 <efried> Rambo Not now.  Ask again in two or three weeks.
21:23:56 <edleafe> efried: yes, he'll be back.
21:24:16 <efried> edleafe Good deal.  Then presumably he'll have an updated agenda and run the real version of this meeting.
21:24:25 <efried> Thanks all, gonna call it there.
