Dang! 21:05:47 <shamail> Anyways, let's proceed :) 21:05:55 <rocky_g> Infra could fix it., but is it worth it? Let's just go on and have them end the session at the close. 21:06:13 <shamail> rocky_g: +1 21:06:45 <leong> yeah.. i am back :) 21:06:51 <rocky_g> yay! 21:06:53 <leong> #chair shamail 21:06:54 <openstack> Current chairs: leong shamail 21:07:00 <leong> yeah! 21:07:02 <leong> fix that 21:07:03 <leong> haha 21:07:08 <shamail> Sweet 21:07:11 <leong> #Rollcall 21:07:36 <shamail> Here 21:07:39 <leong> sorry for the hiccup, i believe we have quorum... 21:08:00 <leong> by the way, i have to jump at half hour... so need shamail to chair 21:08:15 <leong> today agenda can be found here 21:08:22 <leong> #link Agenda https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/product-team 21:08:37 <leong> #topic Review of action items 21:08:38 <shamail> I can chair after 5:30P ET 21:08:58 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Andy and I had a meeting and are working on wiki change proposal. 21:09:08 <Arkady_Kanevsky> We do want to bring a few things for discussion. 21:09:17 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Can do a couple of them today. 21:09:44 <leong> go ahead! 21:10:04 <mrhillsman> o/ 21:10:17 <Arkady_Kanevsky> 1. We do not explicitly state in our objective to coordinate overlaps of requirements between multupel user groups. 21:10:53 <Arkady_Kanevsky> suggest we add that in objective as part of • Gather data/requirements from other working groups; 21:11:17 <rocky_g> +1 21:11:19 <Arkady_Kanevsky> all working groups 21:11:58 <shamail> +1 21:12:01 <leong> +1 21:12:08 <Arkady_Kanevsky> 2. We do not state in objective that • Work with the UC, TC and Board to prioritize platform-wide objectives based on User priorities 21:12:36 <Arkady_Kanevsky> If we have agreemnt we will add #1 in objective change as part of proposal. 21:12:42 <AndyU> If it makes this any easier I have some slides I've been working on here which convey some of the thoughts Arkady is sharing: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1FWuIModYuIxNOYFne7y-yfF70UDKOMQ2JEUeEwTtt20/edit?usp=sharing 21:12:42 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Ready for comments on #2 21:12:47 <leong> #agreed: explicitly state in our objective to coordinate overlaps of requirements between multiple user groups as as part of "Gather data/requirements from other working groups" 21:13:38 <Arkady_Kanevsky> any feedback on #2? 21:14:03 <leong> for #2, i believe we need to bring that up for discussion at UC? 21:14:26 <rocky_g> I think it provides the biggest bang for the work. 21:14:42 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Like that. Should we add it to UWG agenda for mid cycle 21:14:51 <leong> Tom talked about the feature triage before.. 21:14:51 <Arkady_Kanevsky> https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/MEX-ops-meetup 21:15:30 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Feature triage falls into gap analysis part of workflow. 21:15:48 <leong> Arkady_Kanevsky: would you be attending the MEX OPS, if yes, can you bring that up? 21:16:07 <Arkady_Kanevsky> That is 1M$ question. 21:16:15 * shamail will not be there 21:16:23 * leong will not be there either... 21:16:30 <Arkady_Kanevsky> I had sent email to see who will be coming to ops summit and who to PTG. 21:16:55 <leong> thanks Arkady_Kanevsky for the email...:) so far i haven't seen much replied yet 21:16:56 <Arkady_Kanevsky> It does not look like we will have quorum for PWG on either of them. 21:16:57 <rocky_g> Also, if you look at the Public Cloud Providers WG, they have the requirements (missing functionality) identified without the stories. So, they have the gaps. I think most of the WGs could do that 21:17:10 <AndyU> My status for both is still unknown 21:17:22 <shamail> Feature triage is requirement gathering centric 21:17:24 <rocky_g> mine is very iffy. 21:17:33 <Arkady_Kanevsky> I will attend one of them. Still deciding which one is the right one. 21:17:33 <leong> shamail: +1 21:17:59 <leong> Arkady_Kanevsky: can we push #2 to next week discussion? 21:18:12 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Tom is the only one responded that he is going to Mexico 21:18:14 <shamail> leong: +1 21:18:20 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Agree to psotpone till next week. 21:18:30 <Arkady_Kanevsky> But I will miss next week as I will be on a plane 21:18:46 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Andy can drive #2 next week 21:19:08 <shamail> Ok 21:19:12 <rocky_g> Also, a point of information: The PCPWG spreadsheet: #link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Mf8OAyTzZxCKzYHMgBl-QK_2-XSycSkOjqCyMTIedkA/edit?usp=sharing) 21:19:15 <leong> cool 21:19:16 <leong> #info to follow up the discussion in next week Agenda on objective that Work with the UC, TC and Board to prioritize platform-wide objectives based on User priorities 21:19:24 <Arkady_Kanevsky> I suggest we add #3 into the same agenda: #3• Periodic coordination/collaboration across WGs/Product Managers 21:19:32 <rocky_g> ++ 21:19:48 <leong> Arkady_Kanevsky: that's on weekly agenda :) 21:20:19 <leong> let's move on.. any one got a chance to review the Moderator Guide? 21:20:20 <Arkady_Kanevsky> It is not listed in obejctives on wiki. 21:20:37 <Arkady_Kanevsky> not me. 21:21:09 <rocky_g> I just did a quick pass. Will need to go deeper. 21:21:37 <leong> ok.. please spend some time to review and provide feedback to mrhillsman and AndyU 21:21:48 <leong> #action all to review Moderator Guide and provide feedback to mrhillsman and AndyU 21:21:48 <Arkady_Kanevsky> +1 21:21:54 <mrhillsman> sorry had to step away for a quick moment 21:21:55 <mrhillsman> back 21:22:23 <leong> so for the PTG and Mex-Ops meetup, i believe we might not have enough quorum to host that meeting 21:23:03 <Arkady_Kanevsky> agree, unless we hear otherwise 21:23:07 <leong> my suggestion is NOT having F2F meetup this time (both PTG and Mex-OPS) 21:23:26 <leong> let's wait for another week and see if there is any more reply to the email 21:23:30 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Board meeting will be colocated with PTG. with several important topics on agenda. 21:23:39 <Arkady_Kanevsky> leong +1 21:23:46 <rocky_g> ++, Arkady_Kanevsky 21:24:04 <leong> #agreed wait for another week from email feedback, next week to finalize if we need to host f2f meetup at PTG or Mex-Ops 21:24:11 <shamail> leong: +1 21:24:30 <leong> shamail: can you take on the chair from here? I got to leave in 5 mins... 21:24:40 <shamail> Sure 21:24:41 <AndyU> If we don't have a f2f this time, will the next opportunity be outside of North America? 21:24:43 <leong> #link Agenda https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/product-team 21:25:01 <leong> AndyU: i am not sure...maybe 21:25:30 <leong> shamail: pls go ahead :) 21:25:33 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Next one can be is Sidney as part of forum 21:25:37 <shamail> Sounds good 21:25:43 <AndyU> Might be even harder to get quorum then. 21:25:48 <shamail> Arkady_Kanevsky: +1 21:26:01 <mrhillsman> F2F via Zoom? 21:26:11 <shamail> That could be possible 21:26:11 <mrhillsman> :) 21:26:15 <AndyU> mrhillsmann +111 21:26:32 <Arkady_Kanevsky> If we cannot get quorum then we should propose merging several of UWGs into one. 21:26:43 <AndyU> I believe we would benefit from beginning to use web meetings at least occasionally 21:26:47 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Skype works also 21:26:49 <mrhillsman> agreed 21:27:02 <shamail> #action We could possibly conduct midcycle via Teleconference solution... need to mail ML to determine interest. 21:27:19 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Andy and I used skype for business and it worked well. 21:27:23 <mrhillsman> skype does work...if wanting to do zoom, i have a pro account i do not plan on getting rid of for the foreseeable future 21:27:42 <mrhillsman> i think zoom free limits time or something 21:27:47 <shamail> We can discuss further after we can determine whether people would attend. 21:27:52 <mrhillsman> but whatever works 21:28:01 <leong> if only voice needed, we can provide the dialing bridge with global dial-in number, not a problem :) 21:28:02 <Arkady_Kanevsky> email discussion it it 21:28:03 <AndyU> FWIW, Atlassian will provide a free "Hipchat" account which include individual and group video chat. 21:28:03 <shamail> It's a good suggestion in my opinion 21:28:19 <mrhillsman> +1 21:28:28 <shamail> Next topic? 21:28:38 <shamail> #topic Development Proposals review 21:28:39 <Arkady_Kanevsky> yes 21:28:53 <shamail> #link https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:openstack/development-proposals+status:open 21:29:26 <Arkady_Kanevsky> I need more time to review existing+wip proposals 21:29:34 <shamail> Have people had a chance to review the open proposals yet? We had an action item to discuss which ones (if any) might be ready to discuss with project teams 21:29:44 <shamail> Same here Arkady_Kanevsky 21:30:03 <rocky_g> I'm in the same boat... 21:30:12 <leong> baremetal is ongoing... 21:30:24 <shamail> Alright, if people are okay then I'll defer this until a future meeting? 21:30:25 <Arkady_Kanevsky> https://github.com/openstack/development-proposals/tree/master/development-proposals/proposed - proposal page 21:30:32 <leong> already started discussion with project teams on baremetal 21:30:40 <leong> shamail +1 21:30:41 <rocky_g> Any way we can prioritize and mayb do a couple or three per week? 21:30:45 <shamail> Thanks leong 21:31:01 <shamail> rocky_g: +1 21:31:04 <rocky_g> Identify them first week, discuss second. 21:31:18 <Arkady_Kanevsky> I will review https://review.openstack.org/#/c/411140/. Glad to see it was updated 21:31:20 * leong sneaking out the meeting room.. will check the irc logs later 21:31:24 <rocky_g> So, defined homework instead of vague, large, and fuzzy 21:31:24 <shamail> #action Build a plan to breakdown proposal readiness assessment process 21:32:12 <shamail> #info Discussion on which proposals are ready to be discussed with project teams has been deferred for a future session 21:32:32 <shamail> #topic hashtag analysis 21:32:47 <shamail> Has anyone looked at the hashtags data yet for insights? 21:33:03 <Arkady_Kanevsky> still on my todo list. 21:33:10 <shamail> This one might require a similar approach (break down the work and make weekly progress) 21:33:27 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Maybe we should hijack this meeting in the future to do that work as the group 21:33:38 <shamail> Arkady_Kanevsky: +1 21:33:38 <mrhillsman> same, still on todo list 21:33:41 <mrhillsman> +1 21:34:09 <shamail> #info Hashtag analysis has not started, need to break down the work and use WG meetings for making progress 21:34:21 <rocky_g> Arkady_Kanevsky, exactly. So the aganda for next meeting is what we put on for us to review and consider during the week. Then the discussion of those at that next meeting 21:34:25 <AndyU> <sigh> not me either 21:34:45 <shamail> rocky_g: +1 21:34:54 <shamail> #topic PWG Review 21:35:39 <shamail> Disclaimer: This topic isn't meant to be resolved today but just framing a conversation that we need to have in the near future 21:36:32 <shamail> We had numerous discussions last week (Rocky and I, Leong and I, etc) about how to handle our scope given the limited active members in the team 21:37:12 <Arkady_Kanevsky> Shamail, you think we can do lighter proposal creation process? or ost of driving proposal thru execution? 21:37:15 <shamail> We should take time as a WG to determine if we are still effective in our role and, if not, how can we become more effective 21:37:31 <shamail> (This is the homework assignment, to think about your answer to this question) 21:38:03 <Arkady_Kanevsky> This is releated to one itme we pickedc form wiki review 21:38:17 <rocky_g> Yup. Item 2 21:38:23 <Arkady_Kanevsky> to fill any necessary resource gaps for proposals. 21:38:37 <rocky_g> It seems to me that user groups are building up, but we are not 21:38:39 <Arkady_Kanevsky> I do not beleive we no longer can deliver it 21:38:56 <rocky_g> We can use the user groups to provide their view of the gaps. 21:38:59 <Arkady_Kanevsky> rocky_g - agree 21:38:59 <shamail> Maybe Arkady_Kanevsky but i would broaden the scope even further and ask whether we should create a proposal framework and help other teams create and manage their own proposals with PWG helping them or should we still be the team that drafts and prioritizes? 21:39:20 <rocky_g> That will give us multiple verticals. We would be liaisons to the User groups. 21:39:43 <Arkady_Kanevsky> so what will be out mission and deliverables? 21:39:44 <rocky_g> Then, we do analysis of what is in multiple gaps docs. 21:39:57 <rocky_g> And that is what we drive through devs 21:40:09 <shamail> For this week, let's not discuss solutions yet but think about whether we agree that there is an issue here for us to resolve and B) what are some ways we can adapt to address any issues 21:40:11 <AndyU> Shamail - IMO we should be the team that helps other teams create and manage their own proposals 21:40:25 <mrhillsman> +1 shamail 21:40:28 <shamail> AndyU: +1 imo 21:40:45 <Arkady_Kanevsky> we will loose roadmaps and critical value we provide to openstack users 21:41:22 <shamail> #action Everyone think about the scope, processes, and team resources of the PWG and we can discuss what's awesome, what's okay, and what's broken in a future meeting (along with brainstorming solutions) 21:41:35 <Arkady_Kanevsky> +1 21:41:50 <shamail> Arkady_Kanevsky: the roadmap team could become stand-alone like the User Survey team potentially :P 21:42:05 <shamail> Anyways, look forward to your insights and suggestions! 21:42:23 <shamail> #topic Opens 21:42:31 <shamail> The floor is now open :) 21:42:39 <shamail> Anyone have additional topics? 21:43:00 <Arkady_Kanevsky> none from me. will use 20 min to review proposals. 21:43:08 <shamail> Great idea :) 21:43:13 <shamail> Going once... 21:43:22 <shamail> twice... 21:43:29 <shamail> Take care everyone! 21:43:30 <AndyU> That last action item would be a good subject for trying out having web meetings (zoom, skype, whatever) 21:43:37 <AndyU> ;) 21:43:39 <Arkady_Kanevsky> thanks everybody 21:43:40 <shamail> AndyU: +1 21:43:41 <mrhillsman> agreed 21:43:45 <rocky_g> Cool.
