14:05:41 <mihalis68_> #topic actions
14:05:56 <smcginnis> o/
14:05:57 <mihalis68_> I recall we had actions to set up the etherpads for our sessions in Berlin. I haven't done mine
14:06:37 <mihalis68_> anyone else anything to report? I'll get mine done today
14:06:52 <spotz> o/
14:06:57 <smcginnis> I was out most of last week, so nothing to report from me.
14:07:16 <mihalis68_> I did notify the list about our resolutions last week
14:07:25 <mihalis68_> namely: social on the tuesday in berlin
14:07:43 <mihalis68_> and then longer-term, strong support for two ops meetups next year, roughly in-between summits
14:08:10 <mihalis68_> and as mentioned last week I'm still working on getting together an offer to host in frankfurt early next year
14:08:42 <mihalis68_> any other updates re: actions?
14:08:45 <mrhillsman> o/
14:08:51 <mihalis68_> hi there!
14:08:52 <smcginnis> Was there any response on the mailing list on the plan for two separate meetups?
14:09:49 <spotz> I hadn't seen any
14:11:12 <mihalis68_> yeah I just looked, no response
14:11:34 <simon-AS559> "silence is consent"
14:12:07 <mihalis68_> it's hard to tell if it's that or if there's nobody reading the messages
14:12:23 <mihalis68_> maybe I'm just paranoid
14:12:24 <spotz> Well we can always bring it up in Berlin
14:12:25 <smcginnis> Always the question with those kinds of posts. :)
14:12:34 <mihalis68_> #topic berlin
14:12:39 <spotz> tada:)
14:13:14 <mihalis68_> in case anyone missed last weeks meeting, the sessions I submitted weren't finalized, however they were rescued, hence ops meetups team catch-up, operators documents and a cceph session are on the schedule
14:13:33 <mihalis68_> those are emccormick, smcginnis and myself respectively. etherpads to come shortly
14:13:50 <mihalis68_> the only other thing the meetups team needs to do is arrange the specific operators related social
14:13:58 <mihalis68_> emccormick was researching venues
14:15:26 <mihalis68_> he was here earlier, I guess he's nipped out?
14:15:29 <smcginnis> I've started an etherpad for the session I'm moderating and added it to the overall Forum list:
14:15:32 <smcginnis> #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Forum/Berlin2018
14:15:44 <mihalis68_> oh nice!
14:15:51 <mihalis68_> I'll follow along
14:16:02 <mihalis68_> get mine started and linked today
14:17:31 <mihalis68_> I guess there's no update on the social venue. Anything else we need to talk about for berlin?
14:17:40 <mihalis68_> I'm going to the ceph day on the monday, by the way
14:17:50 <simon-AS559> Me too! (even got a talk accepted)
14:18:22 <mihalis68_> oh cool!
14:18:39 <mihalis68_> share the title here? I'll make sure to attend!
14:18:51 <smcginnis> Oh good. I can't attend, but it sounds like it will be a great one for you folks to be at.
14:20:12 <simon-AS559> "Into the cold—Object Storage in SWITCHengines"
14:20:26 <mihalis68_> I'm sure there sill be a Cephalopods Unite event after
14:20:40 <mihalis68_> Oh your objects are cold? that's nice... :)
14:20:48 <mihalis68_> we built an object store for large cold storage
14:21:02 <mihalis68_> everyone turned up with primary small object high iops workload :|
14:21:45 <simon-AS559> We're planning on building long-term storage, and are thinking about ways to prevent that from happening
14:22:19 <simon-AS559> (i.e. people moving from our existing object (and other) storage offerings to cold storage just because it's cheaper, but expecting to use it like before)
14:22:32 <mihalis68_> then I DEFINITELY need to listen to the talk
14:23:46 <mihalis68_> ok, I've lead us somewhat off-topic
14:23:53 <mihalis68_> any more regarding berlin as a whole?
14:24:18 <mihalis68_> Oh, one thing... several of us joined a group chat for various past events. I find that really handy
14:24:31 <mihalis68_> I've done google hangouts, WhatsApp, Signal...
14:24:54 <spotz> OSA uses a hangout, WoO uses groupme
14:25:45 <smcginnis> I don't have groupme, but everything else works for me.
14:26:16 <mihalis68_> I never heard of groupme before. is it good?
14:26:24 <mihalis68_> signal is ok not great
14:26:26 <spotz> oh yeah oui uses hangout too:)
14:26:46 <spotz> mihalis68_: It's ok and was easy for the less technical folks
14:26:47 <mihalis68_> I don't like WhatsApps owner, but otherwise it was a little better than Signal
14:27:08 <mihalis68_> I'll look into groupme this week then
14:27:22 <mihalis68_> life is becoming simply rotating between messaging systems
14:27:29 <mihalis68_> I'm surprised nobody said Slack
14:27:35 <mihalis68_> or a channel here
14:28:06 <spotz> trouble with here is I lose stuff when not connected unless I log into my bouncer and read logs
14:28:23 <mihalis68_> yeah
14:28:39 <mihalis68_> ok, moving not-very-swiftly-along... #topic 2019
14:28:54 <mihalis68_> summary: the community seems to be in favor of the traditional meetups
14:29:04 <mihalis68_> #1 is aimed to be in europe and we're hoping to host in Frankfurt
14:29:15 <mihalis68_> I don't have an update yet, unfortunately
14:29:27 <mihalis68_> #2 would be "somewhere in NA" that's all we know I think
14:29:36 <smcginnis> Topic isn't changed - need to have #topic at the start of the line.
14:29:47 <smcginnis> :)
14:29:48 <mihalis68_> #topic 2019 meetups
14:29:55 <mihalis68_> TIL about #topic
14:30:18 <smcginnis> I didn't see a response to Eric's ML post either.
14:30:34 <smcginnis> I think we were hoping to get some potential hosting offers off of that.
14:30:44 <mihalis68_> I feel like the opertors ML doesn't really work these days
14:31:02 <mihalis68_> or at least I feel thst perhaps the upcoming giant ML merger may help
14:31:07 <smcginnis> Hopefully it will be better after we combine lists.
14:31:11 <smcginnis> Yep
14:31:34 <mihalis68_> technically the route to offering to  host #2 in 2019 is already open
14:32:10 <mihalis68_> I don't think it's quite time to start tweeting requests for hosts, but it would be interesting to see if anyone's thinking about it
14:33:41 <mihalis68_> no comments. I guess there are no orgs itching to host with a representative here today
14:33:59 <mihalis68_> seems like we don't have much this week, so...
14:34:03 <mihalis68_> #topic any more business
14:34:25 <smcginnis> We can try reviving the thread later. Maybe after Berlin is out of the way.
14:34:29 <mihalis68_> oh by the way, smcginnis I'm challenging myself to land a chance in the operators guide before berlin
14:34:36 <mihalis68_> a *change
14:34:42 <mihalis68_> it's the med!
14:34:51 <medberry> hello
14:35:02 <mihalis68_> hi there. We are a little bit thin this week. not many  updates
14:35:09 <medberry> kk,
14:35:16 <mihalis68_> I need to make an etherpad for berlin and so does emccormick
14:35:21 * medberry read the notes from last week, mostly Berlin prep
14:35:27 <medberry> kk
14:35:31 <mihalis68_> and we havne't nailed down the operators social on the tuesday
14:35:35 <mihalis68_> I don't think you're joining right?
14:35:57 <medberry> Probably dine with my family but if they are beat, I might show up
14:36:08 <mihalis68_> oh you'll be in berlin, though?
14:36:15 <medberry> oh, most definitely
14:36:18 <mihalis68_> excellent
14:36:25 <medberry> taking the whole fam
14:36:31 <spotz> He's just standing us up most of the time:)
14:36:33 <medberry> been planning it for nearly a year.
14:36:36 <mihalis68_> how are all your ansible demos going? hash offtopic
14:36:39 <medberry> spotz, so true
14:36:50 <medberry> some go well, yesterday's was a bit of a pile of dung
14:37:02 <medberry> two unrelated technical issues.
14:37:08 <mihalis68_> bleurgh
14:37:20 <medberry> doing an openstack-ansible + ARA talk next week.
14:37:35 <medberry> and doing other ansible things (mostly non-OpenStack) on a regular basis.
14:37:43 <mihalis68_> alright, well sorry to do this when you just got here David, but I think we're done, nobody had much to report and berlin is a low overhead events for the meetups team
14:37:47 <medberry> next week's is the first talk I'll give that features openstack.
14:37:51 <medberry> no worries.
14:38:00 <medberry> I had an appt at 8 or would have been here earlier.
14:38:02 <medberry> cheers!
14:38:06 <mihalis68_> we are doing more and more ansible in our own openstack thing (chef-bcpc)
14:38:21 <mihalis68_> last call folks, or we can all get back to the clouding
14:38:36 <spotz> Thanks all!
