Here is a link to the agenda for today: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/product-team 19:01:52 <Shamail> With that.. Let's start 19:02:01 <Shamail> #topic Roadmap Update Next Steps 19:02:07 <geoffarnold> I haven't completed the action I took last Wed (midcycle mtg list) - PTO on Friday. I'll finish it in a day or two 19:02:25 <Shamail> no problem geoffarnold, thanks for the update. 19:02:51 <Shamail> mscohen is willing to help lead the roadmap effort but wanted someone else to act as primary. 19:03:01 <Rockyg> Me, either. Need to IRC to doug hellmann 19:03:13 <mscohen> shamail: i think i said i was willing to help 19:03:31 <Shamail> Thanks for the clarification mscohen 19:03:31 <mscohen> sorry, i’m a bit too oversubscribed to lead the roadmap effort 19:03:55 <Shamail> I was approached to see if I would be interested in helping out with leading it and I would be up for it BUT I wanted to see if anyone else wanted to volunteer before I did. 19:04:05 <Shamail> Any takers or should I take ownership for now? 19:04:22 <Shamail> Okay 19:04:45 <Shamail> I will go ahead and lead it. I will send an email to the ML to see how many of us are interested in helping with this work-stream 19:04:59 <Shamail> We can come up with a plan/timeline once we find out how many people are volunteering 19:05:04 <Shamail> Does that sound good? 19:05:22 <mscohen> +1 19:05:43 <Shamail> Sean R. also mentioned that maybe we should let Lauren from the foundation lead the initiative since she maintains the roadmap today 19:06:05 <Shamail> I think that is a great suggestion but I want to discuss with her before handing it off. 19:06:14 <Shamail> #action Shamail to email ML on roadmap update task 19:06:19 <MeganR> I think that is a good idea 19:06:33 <Shamail> I'll start pulling something together for now until we can get in touch with Lauren 19:07:12 <Shamail> We would still be responsible for refreshing the information but she would own the actual publication and formatting 19:07:28 <Shamail> Anything else on this topic? 19:07:45 <Shamail> Great! 19:07:52 <Shamail> #topic Action Plan Status and Updates - All 19:08:05 <Shamail> Here is an updated link to our tracker: 19:08:07 <Shamail> #link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mpOPVWESpmUsgh69EmACygJZX3dRQ5zTnCi04tPnNBI/edit?usp=sharing 19:08:18 <Shamail> Can we go down the list and provide status updates? 19:08:39 <Shamail> 1st one is "Internal Communications", owner: Hugh/Shamail 19:09:02 <Shamail> The status Hugh provided last week is still accurate for this task. 19:09:17 <Shamail> hughhalf: I will email you to set up a meeting on this topic. Is this week good? 19:09:45 <Shamail> next up: Repo & Use Case Template, owner: Rocky/Sean 19:09:52 <Shamail> Any updates Rockyg? 19:09:56 <Rockyg> o/ 19:10:46 <Rockyg> Yeah. Got sidetracked with company stuff last week. Sean and I connected and coordinated, but I need to get together with Doug Hellmann on the way to structure the repo 19:11:22 <Shamail> Awesome. We don't anticipate any blockers thus far right? 19:11:55 <Rockyg> So far, no blockers. I'm hoping to get the work done this week. Keep your fingers crossed. 19:12:27 <Shamail> Thanks Rockyg 19:12:56 <Shamail> The next item was use case selection, I have just updated the date on the tracker to reflect the new deadline 7/8 19:13:07 <Rockyg> Question on the repo: I've been thinking about Operator use cases. Can we put those there, too? 19:13:50 <Shamail> I think that makes sense... I don't know the current planned structure but I thought it would be similar to the groups formed under UC as folders 19:13:54 <Shamail> along with an additional one 19:14:34 <Rockyg> Cool. 19:14:36 <Shamail> Content wise, I think they belong in the repo, but Sean and yourself can figure out where they make sense inside the repo 19:15:43 <Shamail> Next one is "Integration and Test capability exploration and develop proposal" but Carol is not here. We can touch base on this one next week. 19:16:07 <Shamail> Next topic on list: Recruit new members, Owners: Carol/Shamail 19:16:27 <Shamail> I believe Carol welcomed Pete from SUSE last week 19:16:33 <Shamail> I have tried contacting Mirantis and VMware 19:17:14 <Shamail> I got a response from VMW and will be meeting with someone later this week to give them additional details about our working-group. They will determine the ideal person from their team after the call. 19:17:25 <Shamail> I would expect someone from VMW to start joining in a week or two. 19:17:34 <Shamail> I will try Mirantis again 19:17:35 <nateziemann> Hi this is Nate Ziemann , I'll be participating for IBM. First meeting last week. talked w/ Carol as well. 19:17:46 <Shamail> Hi nateziemann! Welcome. 19:18:03 <Shamail> Anyone else have good contacts at Mirantis by the way? 19:18:42 <Shamail> I'll give it another go. 19:19:03 <Shamail> Sean is not here to cover the "Tags" topic 19:19:24 <Shamail> The last one i'll break out into its own topic near the end (Plans for Tokyo) 19:19:41 <Shamail> #topic Midcycle Planning 19:20:02 <Shamail> geoffarnold: you already provided us an update on this one. You will have more information by next week. Anything else to add here for now? 19:20:19 <geoffarnold> nothing to add 19:20:26 <Shamail> Thanks. 19:20:37 <Shamail> #topic Meeting Housekeeping 19:21:00 <nateziemann> open midcycle, do we have a preference on which projects we tie our meeting to? date/location. 19:21:34 <Shamail> nateziemann: we are currently trying to determine which ones are happening when/where 19:21:49 <Shamail> we will then decide if it makes sense to co-locate and prioritize which one(s) might make the most sense 19:21:58 <geoffarnold> tacking a day on to the operators midcycle is intuitively attractive 19:22:04 <geoffarnold> based on lst cycle 19:22:07 <geoffarnold> last 19:22:09 <Shamail> geoffarnold: +1 19:22:17 <Rockyg> +1 19:22:25 <geoffarnold> but I'll get the full list shortly 19:22:34 <Shamail> Thanks again geoffarnold 19:22:37 <geoffarnold> summer is always challenging 19:22:43 <Shamail> Does that answer the question nateziemann? 19:23:47 <Shamail> I have sent out a calendar invite to our mailing list for this weekly IRC meeting. 19:24:00 <nateziemann> yes, we spoke about that last week, but no details on which we are most interested in aligning with. 19:24:24 <Shamail> The meeting being weekly also means coming up with an agenda more frequently. Does the team think that having a published agenda by Friday COB is sufficient (for Monday meeting) 19:24:42 <Shamail> Is that too short of a notice? 19:24:44 <MeganR> I think that is plenty of time 19:24:55 <Shamail> Thanks MeganR 19:25:11 <geoffarnold> We're agile, right? Friday COB is fine 19:25:22 <Shamail> Yes, yes we are. 19:25:44 <Rockyg> Yeah. The devs can change their agenda morning of... 19:25:54 <Shamail> #agree Agenda for next meeting will be published on Friday by COB PT 19:26:26 <Shamail> If all goes well, I think we will have an idea of whats to come anyway (even before the agenda is formally published) 19:26:46 <Shamail> There should not be too many suprises :) 19:26:53 <Shamail> surprises* 19:27:25 <Shamail> #topic Plans for Tokyo 19:27:46 <Shamail> An email came out earlier about call for speakers 19:28:12 <Shamail> We should probably start coming up with ideas for breakout sessions that we can submit as a team. 19:28:15 <geoffarnold> Yup: The deadline to submit is July 15 at 11:59pm PDT. 19:28:32 <Shamail> We already have one idea: "Have a PTL & Product Work Group member give a talk on how they worked together to develop a work plan on a use case." 19:28:41 <Shamail> Let's try to come up with a few more... 19:28:54 <Shamail> for example, do we want to attempt to do the roadmap session again? 19:29:23 <Rockyg> +1 on Roadmap It should become a standard part of the summit 19:29:34 <Shamail> Do we want to do a workshop on how to write user stories and where to submit them inside OpenStack? (e.g. help people understand the various groups in the OpenStack eco-system that might align with their needs) 19:29:35 <nateziemann> it was well attended at Vancouver +1 19:29:44 <mscohen> it was packed at the last summit 19:29:52 <MeganR> Rockyg +1 19:30:00 <mscohen> the bar is higher now though if we do another. 19:30:08 <Shamail> I agree, it also got both positive and negative feedback... We can iterate on it. :) 19:30:13 <Shamail> mscohen: +1 19:30:23 <MeganR> Shamail: can you explain a more about the user stories 19:30:30 <MeganR> *a bit 19:30:31 <Rockyg> Right. We need to do a recap of how well we made target, then the new targets 19:30:58 <Shamail> Sure MeganR, I am just brainstorming in real-time, but the concept in my head was to build a workshop that educates users on how to get their voice heard 19:31:17 <Shamail> through user story submissions and working with appropriate working-groups inside the UC 19:31:31 <Shamail> it's almost like a how to contribute but for people with use cases 19:31:50 <MeganR> ok, I would like to explore that more as well, that can be one of the biggest hurdles for people new to the OpenStack community/environment 19:31:58 <Rockyg> So, really, instead of developer 101, user 101 19:32:10 <Shamail> Rockyg: thanks for summarizing it perfectly 19:32:41 <Shamail> Just a thought 19:32:55 <geoffarnold> I was disappointed by the small turnout at the User Committee Mtg. We should talk to Tim about aligning our sessions. 19:32:56 <Shamail> Can we all think of other ideas and maybe have them ready for group discussion by next week? 19:33:18 <MeganR> sure 19:33:24 <Shamail> geoffarnold: Yeah, that was unfortunate. I think a part of it may have been that it was in the design summit versus the user conference? 19:33:58 <Shamail> We should definitely circle back with him on how we might be able to help or work together 19:34:09 <geoffarnold> Probably. Let's try to join the dots, end-to-end 19:34:28 <Shamail> #action ALL: Come up with breakout session ideas that might be aligned with Product WG charter since deadline for submissions will occur in a month. 19:34:40 <Rockyg> There was concern about low turnout on lots of sessions on Tuesday. 19:35:12 <Shamail> Do you want an AI on this Geoff (as a reminder)... to connect with Tim? 19:35:25 <geoffarnold> Yes please 19:35:44 <Shamail> #action geoffarnold will discuss a possible joint-session with User Committee leadership 19:35:54 <geoffarnold> Due date meeting after next (this week is pretty crazy) 19:36:01 <Shamail> Thanks! 19:36:07 <Shamail> Anything else on this topic? 19:36:20 <Shamail> #topic Open Discussion 19:36:32 <Shamail> Anyone else have anything they would like to discuss as a team? 19:37:09 <Shamail> 24 minutes early! Not sure if good or bad. :-P 19:37:25 <Shamail> Have a great day everyone! Talk to you next week. 19:37:42 <geoffarnold> Cheers! 19:37:47 <Rockyg> Bye! 19:37:49 <MeganR> Bye! 19:37:55 <Shamail> #endmeeting
