Meeting started by acozine at 14:31:16 UTC
(full logs).
Meeting summary
- opening chatter (acozine, 14:31:20)
- release coordination (acozine, 14:37:07)
- what happens for a release (to my knowledge):
1) ansible 2.10.x is released, 2) porting guide needs to be merged
to devel, 3) porting guide needs to be backported to stable-2.10, 4)
docs need to be rebuild (including module/plugin docs) (samccann,
14:46:05)
- 1) consists out of 1a) build ansible package,
1b) check in build data and changelog to ansible-build-data repo,
1c) upload ansible to pypi (samccann,
14:46:17)
- https://sourceforge.net/p/pypi/support-requests/428/
looks like hiding isn't working well and was planned to be removed
(at least in 2014) (felixfontein,
15:06:36)
- ACTION: felixfontein
add a `--release-date` option to the build process (for the
changelog's build date) (felixfontein,
15:10:44)
- ACTION: acozine to
ask shanemcd about using the webserver for pre-release
storage (acozine,
15:11:19)
- ACTION: acozine to
ask shanemcd about adding simple auth to the testing site, with the
password printed for all to see, along with a warning about this
being a testing site (acozine,
15:14:05)
- 2.10.0 release will use new jenkins job(s) that
build the ansible tarball and docssite to pre-production locations
on the ansible web server. People can browse or download if they
are "in the know" and want to test the gold artifacts. They'll be
uploaded to pypi and moved into the real docs.ansible.com locations
(the 2.10 directory in this csae) with a simple jenkins job on
release day. (acozine,
15:17:42)
- revisit this in a retrospective after the
release, improve, iterate (acozine,
15:18:07)
- ACTION: abadger1999
to look into the jenkins jobs to build ansible and docs to a staging
site and bitflipping. (abadger1999,

to update https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki/RelEng:-ansible
with additional steps that the ansible release process entails
now (abadger1999,
15:23:11)
- ACTION: felixfontein
make sure changelog generation does not crash on degenerate
changelog.yaml files (felixfontein,
15:24:29)
