The questions that I have are -- would that be okay with you, and if someone does volunteer, would you be able to work with them (guide them may be) in helping complete your patches? 14:16:41 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: of course 14:16:55 <devkulkarni1> ok cool. 14:17:16 <Ablu> I will not have time until at least end of march. Probably longer... 14:17:23 <Ablu> I mean time to do it myself 14:17:30 <devkulkarni1> I am hoping that we are able to get your patches merged in this cycle (i.e. before the Boston summit, which is in April) 14:17:34 <Ablu> But I can answer questions and stuff 14:17:38 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: thanks for letting me know 14:17:56 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: do you have any colleague of yours from your research group who might be interested in continuing your work? 14:18:02 <Ablu> Just ping me on IRC or send me a mail 14:18:27 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: hm... I do not know anybody... 14:19:09 <Ablu> Some do tasks around OpenStack... But this specific topic was a side project i think... 14:19:14 <devkulkarni1> I see.. if it is not too much effort for you, you could check within your circle of colleagues/friends who might be interested in working on OpenStack 14:19:29 <Ablu> And I do not really have contact to the research group anymore... I only wrote the thesis for them 14:19:47 <devkulkarni1> that way, all your hard work will have a chance to get added to Solum 14:20:19 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: I see 14:21:50 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: if you have any contact, I would suggest checking with them.. I will also seek out volunteers in my PTL nomination statement. lets hope that there will be someone who might be interested in working on your patches and help them land 14:23:06 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: well I definetly plan to finish it, but I cannot do it now 14:24:42 <Ablu> it is hard enough to finish my studies in time at all... 14:24:50 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: ah I see.. that is really good to know.. so I guess the plan is, if we find a volunteer before March then you will help him/her to get through your patches. If not, you will work on them in March/April time-frame 14:24:58 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: I can understand 14:25:25 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: does above plan make sense to you? 14:26:20 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: sure. But I cannot make any promises on my time... 14:28:46 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: fair enough. right now is probably early for you to plan for March/April and I understand. I will let you take a call on when you might have time for the patches. My main goal is to help ensure that your patches and hard work does get landed in Solum. 14:30:08 <Ablu> ok 14:30:59 <devkulkarni1> cool. just let me know if and when you get some clarity about your time situation. I will try to see if there is anyone interested in working on your patches to move them forward. 14:31:12 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: is your thesis/presentation available publicly somewhere? 14:32:00 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: sure: https://gitlab.com/ablu/bachelorthesis 14:32:08 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: and would you be willing/ok if a link to it is shared in email for seeking volunteers? 14:32:22 <Ablu> But I might force push away some private data such as address from there (even though it no longer is up to date) 14:32:33 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: sure. My mail is in the patches anyway :P 14:33:13 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: yes, please remove any private stuff that you don't want to share 14:34:17 <devkulkarni1> would you have time to do that sometime today? If so, I can then include link to your thesis in my PTL statement itself 14:34:42 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: which folder has the pdf of your thesis? 14:35:03 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: let me do it really quick... 14:35:28 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: awesome 14:35:38 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: none. It is built by the gitlab ci to: https://gitlab.com/ablu/bachelorthesis/builds/artifacts/master/download?job=make 14:37:03 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: in that case, what if you added the pdf to the repo itself? that way, I can directly point to the pdf and when someone clicks on it, they will be directly open it in the browser rather than having to download artifacts.zip and then look for the pdf inside it 14:39:16 <devkulkarni1> does it make sense? 14:42:06 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: https://gitlab.com/ablu/bachelorthesis/builds/artifacts/master/browse?job=make 14:43:07 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: perfect 14:43:21 <devkulkarni1> I can link to the pdf from the build directory 14:43:42 <devkulkarni1> have you removed stuff from the repo that you don't want to share? 14:44:00 <devkulkarni1> also, one more question.. are you subscribed to openstack-dev mailing list? 14:44:43 <devkulkarni1> once I send the email, folks may reply on that list.. you can reply on the thread if there are any questions from any one 14:45:21 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: it will automatuically update once i did 14:45:26 <Ablu> so feel free to share it already 14:45:49 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: i am i think... (unless I unsubscribed...) 14:45:59 <Ablu> But there is so much noise... So I fear I wont notice it 14:47:39 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: as long as you are subscribed to the list, it is fine. I will be tagging the email with [Solum] in the subject. 14:47:51 <devkulkarni1> you can setup a filter to only search for emails with that subject 14:48:22 <devkulkarni1> also, if someone replies, I will ping you on solum irc and email you 14:49:14 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: alright, so I will now share the link to your repo and your presentation in an email on the mailing list 14:49:36 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: ok. I will setup a filter 14:49:43 <Ablu> But I need to reregister :P 14:49:53 <devkulkarni1> lets see if we get any one interested. 14:50:21 <devkulkarni1> ah I see.. probably you got de-registered if emails were not getting delivered to your inbox 14:50:30 <devkulkarni1> please do re-register 14:50:38 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: I already have a filter for it 14:50:45 <devkulkarni1> cool 14:50:56 <devkulkarni1> in that case, you should be able to see the replies 14:51:06 <Ablu> ok. reregistered 14:51:30 <devkulkarni1> and as I mentioned, I will also ping you just in case if you do not notice any replies 14:51:31 <devkulkarni1> cool 14:51:43 <devkulkarni1> this is good next step Ablu 14:52:27 <devkulkarni1> thanks for agreeing to this. 14:54:10 <devkulkarni1> Ablu: any other thoughts/comments today? 14:54:34 <Ablu> devkulkarni1: no, sorry.
