Thanks! 19:37:18 <gregdek> Awesome :) 19:37:23 <jimi|ansible> so close that issue :) 19:37:30 <gregdek> WITH PLEASURE 19:37:40 <jimi|ansible> while i'm at it... 19:39:53 <rbergeron> @gregdek: can you #addchair rbergeron 19:40:07 <gregdek> #addchair rbergeron 19:40:09 <gregdek> LOL 19:40:13 <gregdek> Remembering how meetbot works! 19:40:16 <rbergeron> yeah. been a while :) 19:40:18 <gregdek> Been a while. 19:40:24 <rbergeron> #action gregdek rbergeron remember how meetbot works 19:41:00 <gregdek> https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/5 19:41:02 <jimi|ansible> thanks for speaking at the right time rbergeron, reminded me to add you to the flags too while adding newtMcKerr and nitzmahone_ 19:41:05 <gregdek> "Promote best tools". 19:41:38 <gregdek> We can leave this out there for a community person to do, but we don't want to leave it there forever. 19:41:51 <gregdek> We need to sort out the right level of "curation" for this kind of thing. 19:41:55 <gregdek> For instance: 19:42:03 <gregdek> * We know that we want ansible-lint here. 19:42:15 <gregdek> Are there any other tools we know should be added? 19:42:19 <rbergeron> Right. And what's the difference between that and https://github.com/jdauphant/awesome-ansible ? 19:42:28 <rbergeron> Or is awesome-ansible one of those things for ansible best tools? :) 19:42:38 <rbergeron> Ansible Community-recommended tools might be different from awesome-ansible. 19:42:41 <rbergeron> But maybe not. 19:42:44 <gregdek> Maybe not! 19:42:55 <rbergeron> We may just concur with awesome-ansible, generally :) and need to promote *that* with more love. 19:43:13 <gregdek> Should we pull it into ansible repo then? 19:44:35 <gregdek> I think we require a stricter level of scrutiny for this kind of "official-ness". 19:44:52 <rbergeron> yeah 19:44:56 <gregdek> Welp! Let's leave it open for now. 19:45:20 <rbergeron> #actions link to this irc convo in the ansible-best-tools ticket 19:45:20 <gregdek> #topic planetansible.org 19:45:22 <gregdek> https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/6 19:45:39 <gregdek> So how do we promote this better and get more cool feeds on it 19:45:40 <gregdek> ? 19:45:58 <rbergeron> So: I think we could ask rwolters if he wants to (in lieu of any other process) take tickets for folks to be added to planet 19:46:31 <rbergeron> via the community issue list 19:46:33 <gregdek> Yeah, we could do that. 19:47:02 <gregdek> The trouble is, there's nothing there currently on the planet to say "this is how you get yourself added", and I think we need that. 19:47:15 <rbergeron> I think we would ask roland to add that detail as part of the thing to do 19:47:27 <rbergeron> if he wants to take github issues in that way to add people :) 19:47:31 <gregdek> yep. 19:47:37 <gregdek> ok, who owns it? :) 19:47:37 <rbergeron> Or we ask him either way, even if he doesn't want to take issues. 19:47:47 <gregdek> I have been nominated. 19:47:49 <gregdek> I accept. 19:47:56 <rbergeron> #action gregdek to contact roland re: the above 19:48:03 <rbergeron> #undo 19:48:14 <rbergeron> #action gregdek to contact roland re: planetansible 19:49:55 <gregdek> #topic explicit label for greg/robyn tasks 19:50:04 <gregdek> https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/22 19:50:25 <gregdek> Not sure why we wouldn't just assign it to one of us if we know up front that it belongs to one of us. 19:50:53 <gregdek> i.e. if it's in that class -- i.e. the kind of thing only Robyn or Greg *could* do -- then we'd know that up front and assign it. 19:51:09 <gregdek> And yes, that might mean Robyn and Greg reassigning things back and forth and that's fine. :) 19:51:50 <gregdek> Which implies that if it's a task we think anyone can do, we leave it unassigned. 19:52:08 <gregdek> (And then we are free to pick it up ourselves once we move it into in_progress). 19:52:34 <rbergeron> #action gregdek to close #22 19:53:06 <gregdek> #topic Testing Working Group 19:53:17 <rbergeron> So: thinking about this 19:53:23 <gregdek> https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/9 19:53:38 <rbergeron> and how a group would normally come into existence outside of you or me just saying it magically exists 19:53:54 <rbergeron> ..since I was thinking about this while writing up a draft readme.md for the community repo 19:54:07 <rbergeron> the topic of "how do i start a new group if i want to?" sort of came up. 19:54:26 <rbergeron> And I was thinking that basically: Open up an issue in this repo 19:54:44 <rbergeron> "Start a testing working group" 19:54:49 <rbergeron> (which we already conveniently have) 19:55:18 <rbergeron> and basically say: "if you are interested, put your github ID in this issue and say, I'm interested" 19:56:09 <rbergeron> And when there are ... 2? 3? Whatever, people, then that group will become a thing. 19:56:14 <rbergeron> So the process would basically be: 19:56:30 <rbergeron> Mail to ansible-devel saying, "I'm looking for other people who want to join me on my quest to do X! Add your name here" 19:56:41 <rbergeron> when enough people sign up, then the following things happen: 19:56:58 <rbergeron> (what should those things be?) 19:57:09 <rbergeron> * Schedule your first irc meeting 19:57:34 <rbergeron> * Mail ansible-devel to let people know there is a meeting 19:57:47 <rbergeron> * ???? 19:57:50 <rbergeron> Who knows. but basically: 19:57:58 <rbergeron> Create a testing working group! 19:58:10 <gregdek> Interesting. 19:58:11 <rbergeron> Then figure out what you should do next. And maybe once we'er done making the group we should know how people can do it in the future. 19:58:20 <rbergeron> Do they need a repo? No idea. 19:58:31 <gregdek> Well, we know who the principles are. 19:58:31 <rbergeron> Should they be posting to ansible-devel with [special tag], or not? who knows. 19:58:58 <gregdek> So I think this also doubles as "working group management process" or some such. 19:59:14 <gregdek> Make the testing working group the first example of Any Working Group. 19:59:20 <rbergeron> The community team is basically a working group also. 19:59:22 <rbergeron> lol 19:59:26 <gregdek> Yeah, kinda true. 19:59:35 <rbergeron> Just the ones who would handle making a working group happen in some way, i expect. 19:59:38 <gregdek> Should we call ourselves that? 20:00:01 <gregdek> So that means "community working group" is wg#1 and "testing working group" is wg#2 20:00:10 <rbergeron> sure! 20:00:57 <gregdek> ok. 20:01:02 <gregdek> So that implies: 20:01:18 <gregdek> #action robyn will rebrand community team as community working group 20:02:00 <gregdek> #action gregdek will solicit members to the new testing working group by driving people to the appropriate github issue 20:02:14 <gregdek> (going to add/modify those tickets now) 20:04:22 <rbergeron> (gregdek types into #9 while we sit silently waiting) 20:06:05 <gregdek> OK, that's good for today. First Community Working Group meeting done! 20:06:26 <gregdek> #endmeeting
