16:01:27 * dhellmann is on a call but will lurk
16:02:33 <diablo_rojo> o/
16:02:38 <evrardjp> o/
16:03:16 <smcginnis> Alright, guess we can get going.
16:03:35 <smcginnis> #topic Lib freeze and upcoming deadlines
16:03:46 <smcginnis> We are already hitting non-client lib freeze.
16:03:58 <smcginnis> It's been a longer cycle, but this always seems to come up quick.
16:04:20 <smcginnis> Especially for the new folks, the following week is a lot of deadlines.
16:04:39 <smcginnis> Stein-3 is also soft string freeze, feature freeze, client lib freeze, and probably some project specific deadlines too.
16:05:15 <smcginnis> I should check with prometheanfire if we are still planning in requirements freeze too.
16:05:44 <smcginnis> So next week might be a little more active with release activities.
16:06:01 <smcginnis> And the stein-3 week probably more so.
16:06:13 <smcginnis> Any questions on any of that?
16:06:40 <dhellmann> yeah, we should try to make sure we get those lib releases out quickly to allow for testing
16:07:08 <smcginnis> There does always seem to be a few surprise lib updates that break things in unexpected ways.
16:07:17 <smcginnis> So please do pay attention to reviewing those.
16:07:31 <smcginnis> The more time to recover from those situations, the better.
16:07:37 <prometheanfire> smcginnis: ya, freeze period is coming up
16:07:52 <smcginnis> prometheanfire: Anything changing there, or same as we have done in the past?
16:08:07 <prometheanfire> same as the past
16:08:13 <smcginnis> prometheanfire: Going to send out any new witty batman posts? :P
16:08:23 <evrardjp> ahah
16:08:51 <evrardjp> or A song of ice and fire/Game of throne memes
16:09:03 <smcginnis> Ooh, that could be the new theme.
16:09:27 <smcginnis> #topic Task follow up
16:09:42 <smcginnis> #link https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/stein-email-r6 Countdown email draft
16:09:55 <smcginnis> Pretty much all of the tasks for the week related to content for the countdown email
16:10:09 <smcginnis> Please take a look there and feel free to make any suggestions for content changes.
16:10:30 <smcginnis> Thanks evrardjp and diablo_rojo for getting the c-w-i project list and the good discussion on that yesterday.
16:10:52 <prometheanfire> smcginnis: I'll see if I can find a new theme
16:11:03 <smcginnis> I think I would like to keep that list limited to the non-client things this week and point out the client ones next week.
16:11:04 <diablo_rojo> Harry Potter?
16:11:06 <smcginnis> prometheanfire: ;)
16:11:26 <dhellmann> +1 to separating the lists to avoid overwhelming readers
16:11:37 <smcginnis> I did mention in there that folks need to be aware of the client feeze, so nothing should be too surprising.
16:11:38 <evrardjp> I didn't do anything -- just use the tooling. Great tooling, hard to have the whole overview of things in head though
16:11:39 <prometheanfire> GoT seems good, but I'll look into it
16:12:00 <smcginnis> evrardjp: Figuring out what tooling is there and how to use it is a good thing to go through though.
16:12:07 <evrardjp> mail looks good
16:12:31 <smcginnis> The other task was one for fungi for the signing artifact.
16:12:39 <smcginnis> Not sure if he's around right now though.
16:12:41 <dhellmann> prometheanfire : the "freeze is coming" lines write themselves
16:12:45 <hberaud> o/
16:12:52 <smcginnis> Hey hberaud
16:13:37 <smcginnis> #topic Upcoming tasks
16:13:40 <smcginnis> #link https://releases.openstack.org/reference/process.html#final-library-release-week-before-milestone-3
16:13:58 <smcginnis> dhellmann: Do you know if we are still doing bullet 4 there? ^
16:14:07 <dhellmann> looking
16:14:19 <fungi> i have not yet gotten to the signing key generation yet, but it is near the top of my to do list
16:14:19 <smcginnis> I seem to remember creating patches for that but them getting abandoned or something.
16:14:29 <smcginnis> Or the qa team already having taken care of it.
16:14:30 <dhellmann> as far as I know we do still need to do that
16:14:35 <smcginnis> fungi: ack, thanks!
16:14:35 <dhellmann> maybe that's what happened?
16:14:42 <dhellmann> would be good to coordinate with them
16:14:51 <smcginnis> Yeah, that might have been it.
16:15:31 <smcginnis> Any volunteers to ping in -qa about that task and make sure they are aware of it and see if they need us to do anything or if they have it covered?
16:15:43 * smcginnis looks over in evrardjp and diablo_rojo's direction
16:15:55 * diablo_rojo reads bullet 4
16:16:27 <smcginnis> Basically just need to make sure they are aware of the end of cycle activities coming up and are ready for it.
16:16:36 <diablo_rojo> Oh sure
16:16:38 <diablo_rojo> I can do that
16:16:44 <smcginnis> Awesome, thanks diablo_rojo
16:17:17 <smcginnis> diablo_rojo: I've put it down in the etherpad for next weeks tasks as a reminder.
16:17:56 <smcginnis> #topic Open floor
16:18:04 <diablo_rojo> smcginnis, got it! Thanks :)
16:18:09 <smcginnis> I think overall we're in good shape.
16:18:17 <smcginnis> Anything else anyone wants to talk about?
16:18:28 <evrardjp> how do you qualify good/bad shape?
16:18:55 <smcginnis> We haven't had to say "Oh crap, I forgot we were supposed to do that" yet. :)
16:19:10 <dhellmann> *yet :-)
16:19:14 <evrardjp> :D
16:19:16 <smcginnis> ;)
16:19:19 <diablo_rojo> Good documentation will help with that lol
16:19:29 <diablo_rojo> So long as you actually read the docs
16:19:45 <smcginnis> Yeah, as long as we are good about paying attention to process.rst, we should be fine.
16:19:53 <smcginnis> Great documentation of everything that needs to be done there.
16:20:08 <smcginnis> But if anyone comes across something that has been more tribal knowledge so far, please do add to that.
16:20:12 <dhellmann> ++
16:20:24 <smcginnis> Ideally anyone could step in and just follow that guide to run a release.
16:20:47 <evrardjp> smcginnis: I think diablo_rojo and I should do that with your help
16:21:03 <smcginnis> That would be great!
16:21:18 <smcginnis> OK, anything else for today?
16:21:18 <evrardjp> you bring the beer, we bring the manpower
16:21:22 <evrardjp> nothing
16:21:26 <diablo_rojo> I got nothing
16:21:27 <smcginnis> evrardjp: How was the Westvleten?
16:21:33 <diablo_rojo> :D
16:21:39 <evrardjp> :D
16:21:47 <dhellmann> nothing here
16:21:47 <evrardjp> we should close the meeting first
16:22:02 <evrardjp> but it was amazing
16:22:08 <smcginnis> evrardjp: You don't want that logged for all time in the meeting logs? :)
