(since fpaste might expire someday or whatever) 18:05:47 <threebean> right, right 18:05:53 * nirik doesn't mind the flood as long as freenode doesn't. ;) 18:06:02 <threebean> exciting stuff that happened: 18:06:03 <threebean> 18:06:03 <threebean> - new messages being emitted from releng, pkgdb2branch, and meetbot 18:06:03 <threebean> - updated to latest fedmsg-0.5.0 in all of staging last week. 18:06:03 <threebean> - You can get fedmsg messages publicly at tcp://hub.fedoraproject.org:9940 and 18:06:06 <threebean> tcp://hub.stg.fedoraproject.org:9940. I'll write more on how to do this after 18:06:09 <threebean> the freeze starts. 18:06:11 <threebean> - deployed a new /packages app with some nice bugfixes 18:06:14 <threebean> things to get done before the freeze (12 days until freeze): 18:06:16 <threebean> 18:06:19 <threebean> - datanommer - https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/3485 18:06:22 <threebean> - koji plugin - https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/3438 18:06:25 <threebean> - fix busmon in stg, deploy to production (app0*). 18:06:27 <threebean> - update fedmsg to 0.5.0 everywhere in production. 18:06:30 <threebean> This is where we stand now -> http://www.fpaste.org/fENr/ 18:06:44 <nirik> cool. ;) Exciting stuff in the messaging lang. 18:06:45 <nirik> land 18:07:02 <nirik> can meetbot report the name of meetings and/or what channel they are in? 18:07:08 <threebean> yes 18:07:26 <threebean> just need to put the new fedmsg on value03 18:07:28 <nirik> cool. 18:08:10 <smooge> tres cool 18:08:48 <nirik> ok, any other application related news? 18:08:57 <nirik> abadger1999: you were going to try and get a pkgdb release pushed out? 18:09:12 <nirik> relrod: where's the fas new release standing? 18:09:13 <abadger1999> nirik: yeah -- sometime before freeze. 18:09:28 * nirik is looking forward to dropping all those hotfixes. ;) 18:10:03 <abadger1999> nirik: heh -- I already see a few features that might come in as hotfixes after the release is out :-( 18:10:14 <nirik> yeah, it's neverending. ;) 18:10:56 <abadger1999> nirik: I plan on making this release purely about hotfixes. Merging all those in. then checking that the files in the release match what's actually running on the servers. 18:10:59 <nirik> abadger1999 / threebean: speaking of packages/pkgdb... https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/3454 can that be closed? or is there further action we can take there? 18:11:11 <abadger1999> Then push it to stg and production in pretty rapid succession. 18:11:29 <nirik> abadger1999: sounds good. Then we can get back on a more regular release cycle hopefully. 18:11:32 <threebean> nirik: not yet.. almost there. 18:12:08 <abadger1999> nirik: Well -- I'm thinking that that is further out 18:12:29 <abadger1999> nirik: I am very sorely tempted to go for the pkgdb rewrite to be leaner. 18:12:30 <nirik> Oh, I guess application related: Smolt retirement. We pinged suse and some other folks that were using it... Suse says no problem with retiring it, it wasn't even in their two more recent releases, and they removed it from the older one they still support. 18:12:39 <abadger1999> nirik: and just handle acls (as in that ticket) 18:12:53 <nirik> abadger1999: ok. That makes sense. 18:13:18 <abadger1999> yay! (smolt retirement) 18:13:33 <abadger1999> nirik: Any people we need to contact on our side? 18:13:35 <nirik> I think we still want to wait for word from the other distros. 18:13:41 <nirik> for a bit. 18:13:54 <nirik> but the question is: should we try and retire before f18? or after? 18:14:13 <nirik> or phased approach... remove client from f18 and retire server later. 18:14:15 <abadger1999> Should we already be looking into a cgi to /dev/null new data submited to smolt? 18:14:36 <nirik> yeah, would be good to have that ready. 18:14:45 * threebean seems to recall puiterwijck was going to look at that 18:14:54 <abadger1999> I'd say, remove the server and replace with /dev/null asap. Remove client in F18 or F19 -- sooner is better. 18:14:58 <nirik> yeah, puiterwijk was going to look into it. 18:15:01 <abadger1999> Cool. 18:15:28 <abadger1999> If he gets bogged down with other work he can let me know and I'll look into it. 18:15:35 <nirik> I'll see about removing it from comps now. 18:15:38 * dgilmore can remove smolt from f18 right now 18:15:48 <abadger1999> It shouldn't be a very hard thing to code. 18:16:01 <nirik> dgilmore: cool... I think we just need to nuke it from comps... 18:16:10 <dgilmore> nirik: there is a few things to do 18:16:24 <dgilmore> nirik: but we will have to keep the server up until f17 is EOL 18:16:26 * nirik notes we have https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Smolt_retirement 18:16:44 <dgilmore> nirik: since any install of f17 will prompt to have he profile submitted 18:16:57 <nirik> dgilmore: yeah, we were going to look at replacing it with a sink service that accepts the data and drops it... along with a landing page that says what happened to it. 18:17:01 <dgilmore> though i guess that will just fail behind the scenes 18:17:27 <nirik> also a redirect so people who go to their profile or whatever get a page explaining. 18:17:29 <dgilmore> nirik: if we plan to kill it we should get it out of f18 beta 18:18:20 <nirik> I agree. 18:18:25 <nirik> dropping it from comps should do that. 18:18:55 <nirik> dgilmore: you want to do that? or shall I? 18:19:00 <dgilmore> drop from comps, block from f18 probably also some other changes to composition 18:19:07 <dgilmore> nirik: I will 18:19:21 <nirik> do we want to set a time now for replacing the server with the EOL version? 18:19:31 <nirik> dgilmore: awesome. Thanks. 18:19:35 <dgilmore> nirik: thats less time critical 18:19:37 <smooge> when is beta 18:19:38 <dgilmore> but we should 18:19:45 <dgilmore> smooge: 3 weeks i think 18:19:51 <smooge> I would say that is when we replace it 18:19:52 <dgilmore> maybe 2 weeks 18:19:57 <smooge> the server side 18:19:57 <nirik> 2012-10-23 18:20:06 <nirik> (unless we slip) 18:20:18 <dgilmore> my schedule doesnt have room for slips 18:20:23 <lmacken> smolt is currently required by func? 18:20:29 <nirik> lmacken: ? 18:20:32 <nirik> it is? 18:20:41 <nirik> that seems odd. 18:21:10 <lmacken> https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/smolt/relationships/required_by 18:21:21 <abadger1999> /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/func/minion/modules/hardware.py: # this will fail if smolt is not installed. That's ok. hal_info will 18:21:22 <lmacken> yeah, weird 18:21:39 <smooge> ha 18:21:41 <abadger1999> still work. 18:21:51 <smooge> hal_info will still work? 18:21:51 <abadger1999> So -- looks safe to remove the dep 18:21:58 <nirik> hal and smolt... two friends sitting in rocking chairs at the old programs home. 18:22:07 <herlo> lol 18:22:22 <abadger1999> okay--- maybe not quite 18:22:23 <smooge> I thought we took hal out to the cornfield last release 18:22:26 <abadger1999> It will remove functionality 18:22:38 <abadger1999> (without smolt, getting hw data will return an empty []) 18:23:06 <nirik> so, how about we plan for replacing the server after beta... but before final. Would give time to announce it, etc. 18:23:06 <smooge> I have the feeling that we can fix that by taking the code out of smolt and sticking it in func. easy peasy.. [is playing programmer manager today] 18:23:30 <nirik> like say... 2012-11-07 18:23:45 <nirik> thats a bit more than a month for notice. 18:24:27 <nirik> or is that not enough time? 18:25:33 <dgilmore> nirik: sounds fine :) 18:25:43 * dgilmore has just taken smolt out the back of the shed 18:26:12 * relrod here, late - just got home from class 18:26:29 * abadger1999 wonders if dgilmore uses an axe or a shotgun 18:26:30 <nirik> proposal: set 2012-11-07 as the date to move the server over to placeholder version. 18:26:37 <abadger1999> +1 18:26:40 <lmacken> so yeah, func needs the hardware enumeration code from smolt... 18:26:47 <smooge> abadger1999, he uses a spoon. it takes longer 18:26:53 <abadger1999> lmacken: That code looks broken to me too... 18:27:00 <lmacken> abadger1999: it's definitely a mess... 18:27:15 <abadger1999> import smolt ; smolt.Hardware() => looks like it doesn't work with current smolt code 18:27:22 <dgilmore> abadger1999: it was vicious and bloody 18:27:35 <relrod> nirik: late response, but the FAS release is going well. Tomorrow ends the translations period, but i'll be at ohio linuxfest. Will probably wrap up the final release Monday. 18:27:43 <nirik> relrod: cool. ;) 18:27:48 <threebean> relrod: awesome :) 18:28:17 <lmacken> abadger1999: smolt.Hardware() works for me 18:28:44 <nirik> yeah, we will need to figure out how best to fix it in func... ;) we can do that out of band? 18:28:50 <nirik> any other application/devel news? 18:29:00 <lmacken> I'm working on getting a new bodhi bugfix release out before the freeze 18:29:12 <lmacken> fixing up some of those push ordering issues that we hit with the big f18 alpha push 18:29:35 <nirik> cool. Any news on 2.0? or not much on it recently? 18:30:14 <lmacken> not much 2.0 dev lately, more putting out fires in 1.0 18:30:18 <threebean> lmacken: thanks for helping stress test fedmsg the other day, too. sometime when we're both free, can we revisit that? 18:30:45 <nirik> ok, still hopefully a 2.0 early release after f18 goes out? it would be cool to have it in for f19... 18:30:48 <lmacken> threebean: yeah, let's turn that code into a benchmarking stress test 18:30:54 * threebean nods 18:31:03 <lmacken> nirik: hopefully around that timeframe 18:31:08 <nirik> cool cool. 18:31:16 <nirik> #topic Sysadmin status / discussion 18:31:17 <relrod> oh I have one more thing 18:31:22 <nirik> #undo 18:31:22 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Topic object at 0x238e9fd0> 18:31:29 <relrod> python-flask is out of epel-testing now :) 18:31:29 <nirik> relrod: go ahead... 18:31:42 <nirik> ok.

I have been busy, so not as active as normal. 17:02:38 <bikedude880> Except for my IR remote issue which seems to have fixed itself 17:02:56 <nirik> bikedude880: really? cool... glad it's working. 17:02:57 <bikedude880> Looked like a USB controller bug, but that's enough on that 17:03:14 <Discordian> libstdc++ is out of step on i686 and x86_64 17:03:37 <nirik> Discordian: it's not, it's other things that are depending on it... like clang. ;) 17:04:09 <Discordian> Well whatever it's been bothering a few folk including me 17:04:48 <nirik> yeah, it's clang in updates needs the old gcc/libstdc++... so yum tries to find it, and finds the old 32bit one in the base repo and boom. 17:05:13 <nirik> ok, anything else to note from the week? or shall we move on? 17:05:22 <nirik> (hopefully clang in updates-testing will go out soon and fix that issue) 17:05:33 * Discordian nods 17:05:39 <bikedude880> The only things I can note will get updated in F18 17:06:24 <nirik> ok, on to tickets. 17:06:26 <nirik> #topic ticket 128 - Community helped fix a nvidia module 17:06:27 <nirik> https://fedorahosted.org/irc-support-sig/ticket/128 17:06:47 <nirik> this is some kudos to some folks. 17:06:57 <nirik> always nice to see people happy their issue was solved well. 17:07:07 <Discordian> Yep +1 17:07:16 <bikedude880> Nice work :) 17:08:02 <nirik> yep. 17:08:22 <nirik> next ticket... 17:08:23 <nirik> #topic ticket 127 - Hey why am i being treated like an idiot for asking? 17:08:24 <nirik> https://fedorahosted.org/irc-support-sig/ticket/127 17:08:53 <nirik> I think the reporter here was being oversensitive and taking offense where none was offered. 17:08:55 <Discordian> I'm afraid there seems to have been a communication issue 17:08:56 <bikedude880> Just saw that, quite a bit of reading in that one 17:09:13 <Discordian> and yes they over-reacted 17:09:33 <bikedude880> First few lines... I agree 17:09:46 <BobJensen> I don't see where the user was treated like an idiot. But I am commonly blind to people's image of themselves. 17:10:09 <bikedude880> I can see where it would be misinterpreted 17:10:29 * nirik fixes the log, reload for more readable version 17:10:31 <bikedude880> When a user fails to provide more information than the error message, it's hard to want to help 17:10:39 <Discordian> I also don't think fenrus02 treated them like an idiot 17:11:21 <nirik> lots of context missing for sure. 17:11:32 <BobJensen> I'm afraid I would have handled them... much more abrasively... 17:11:35 <nirik> so, what can we learn from this/do? 17:12:15 <nirik> I guess it might have helped to get more info from the user... but unclear 17:12:19 <BobJensen> No matter how hard we try we can't please everyone 17:12:21 * Sonar_Gal sneaks in 17:12:28 <nirik> yeah. 17:12:30 <BobJensen> We can only try 17:12:46 <bikedude880> Been around Android long enough to know that some people can't express their issue in English 17:13:03 <bikedude880> Or they don't know how to find out the root cause of it 17:13:32 <BobJensen> This user seemed to have a lot of problems that may have been self inflicted in the days that followed the ticket also. 17:14:12 <nirik> yeah, I recall talking with them briefly and they were much more interested in ranting about things than providing info or working on a solution to issues. ;( 17:14:25 <BobJensen> Did not seem to really want to own up to some of the errors in judgment or help people that would try to work with them to resolve the issues. 17:14:42 <nirik> anyhow, I guess we thank them for feedback, and just try and do better at gathering info or pointing people to other support resources. 17:14:45 <bikedude880> I'd say the best thing to ask is if it's a clean install 17:15:15 <BobJensen> Yeah button it up. Hope they sorted it all out. 17:15:53 <nirik> bikedude880: yeah, that would be good info to know... along with: what log was the error in, lines around it for context, and a lot of other things. ;) 17:16:07 <bikedude880> Definitely 17:16:35 <bikedude880> I'm sure 'fpaste --sysinfo' could provide most of the basic info 17:16:44 <nirik> anyhow, thats the tickets this week... would anyone like to step up to close them out politely with the info from this meeting? 17:16:56 <BobJensen> nirik: I'll do it 17:17:05 <nirik> BobJensen: thanks. 17:17:08 <nirik> #topic Open Floor 17:17:22 <nirik> any items for open floor? suggestions / ideas / bacon? 17:18:24 <bikedude880> I know I'm constantly looking for what's getting updated next, already familiar with the 'bodhi' command... is there any place where the information is posted publicly? 17:19:09 <nirik> bikedude880: if you want a firehose of info... #fedora-fedmsg shows all the messages from the internal message bus... including when updates are created, etc. There are also bodhi rss feeds. 17:20:31 <bikedude880> Nice, good info to know 17:20:44 <nirik> ok, any other open floor items? or shall we call it a meeting? 17:21:47 <BobJensen> Call it what you like... 17:21:53 <nirik> I'll call it... 17:21:54 <BobJensen> Closed the tickets. 17:21:56 <nirik> bacon. :) 17:22:01 <nirik> Thanks for coming everyone! 17:22:01 <BobJensen> Mmmmm Bacon 17:22:05 <nirik> #endmeeting

Accepted as NTH for beta due to nastiness.

The full logs are available at http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting/2012-09-26/fedora_board.201… . Meeting summary --------------- * Roll Call (Sparks, 18:30:28) * ke4qqq will not be here due to $dayjob requirements (Sparks, 18:31:32) * rbergeron is somewhere and the Internets are somewhere else (Sparks, 18:32:58) * Sparks, abadger1999, cwickert, gholms, inode0, and jreznik are in attendance. (Sparks, 18:36:18) * Agenda (Sparks, 18:36:48) * Announcements (Sparks, 18:37:40) * Next Public Board IRC Meeting time/date confirmation: Wednesday, October 10, 2012 @ 18:30 UTC (Sparks, 18:38:36) * Open Q&A (Sparks, 18:39:26) * Ticket #141: Keep better, open records of how Board members vote on issues (Sparks, 18:41:48) * LINK: https://fedorahosted.org/board/ticket/141 (Sparks, 18:41:55) * IDEA: Have a new trac instance for things that can be discussed in public.

(Sparks, 18:58:19) * IDEA: Have a new board-public mailing list.

Unless a discussion needs to be private, discussion should occur here. (Sparks, 19:02:13) * The goal of the board-public list would be for board members to be able to carry on public conversations with minimal distractions that currently occur on the board-private list (gholms, 19:06:14) * IDEA: We keep the lists the way they are now and really start using the advisory-list more. (Sparks, 19:30:44) * 4 +1, 1 0, 1 -1 (Sparks, 19:33:42) * Release naming status (Sparks, 19:39:35) * LINK: https://fedorahosted.org/board/ticket/146 (jreznik, 19:41:24) * Fedora 19 naming process (cwickert, 19:41:53) * AGREED: The F19 naming will go as normal and a yet-to-be-determined naming schema will be used for F20 (Sparks, 19:52:30) * Open Q&A (Sparks, 19:53:35) * ACTION: everyone on the board should consider ticket 145 for next week's meeting (cwickert, 19:56:15) Meeting ended at 19:59:14 UTC.

2012-09-24 - Fedora QA Meeting - recap
by Adam Williamson 25 Sep '12

25 Sep '12

As always, minutes and IRC transcript available on the wiki at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Meetings/20120924 Next meeting is scheduled for 2012-10-01 at 1500 UTC in #fedora-meeting. If you have topics you think we should bring up at the meeting, please add them to the Wiki page at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Meetings/20121001 . Thanks! TOPIC: Previous meeting follow-up ======================================================================= * "adamw to find out who's writing the release announcement and make sure it calls out the biggest Alpha bugs" - this was done successfully * "tflink to draft up a freeze entrance requirements proposal for the list and we can take the idea from there" - tflink still working on quantifying freeze readiness * "pschindl to kill 'uncategorized package groups' criterion" - this got done and reported on the list * "kparal to refine 'release-blocking package sets' criterion" - this is still going on but it looks like we're pretty close * "adamw to refine alpha partitioning criterion" - adam didn't get around to this yet, sorry TOPIC: Release criteria revision ======================================================================= * adamw will propose Beta partitioning criteria after discussion with anaconda team * tflink and adamw propose to replace the specific upgrade methods listed in the Beta upgrade criterion with the phrase "officially supported upgrade method(s)" * We agreed 'all kickstart delivery methods' criterion is possibly overstated, adamw will consider potential changes * tflink will ask other potentially interested parties to see if they think any of the Beta criteria need to be changed TOPIC: Naming of TCs/RCs ======================================================================= * We still don't have a proposed scheme that everyone loves, but we agree the goal is to come up with a TC/RC naming scheme as unlikely as possible to confuse people about what each build is TOPIC: Open Floor ======================================================================= * tflink will be announcing a new release of the blocker bug tracking app (also known as Skynet) shortly ACTION ITEMS ======================================================================= * adamw to refine alpha partitioning criterion * adamw to draft new partitioning criterion for Beta once we know what will be in anaconda * adamw to consider revisions to 'kickstart delivery method' criterion * tflink to ask other interested parties (anaconda team, fesco...) to look over the beta criteria and see if there's anything they feel should be dialled down -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net
