20:00:55 <jborean93> Hey
20:00:59 <jborean93> How’s it going?
20:02:12 <jhawkesworth_> busy trying to finish up my 'fest presentation, but that's good busy
20:02:16 <jhawkesworth_> how about you?
20:02:50 <jborean93> Just the standard busy, been having a few laptops issues the past few days which is annoying
20:02:59 <jborean93> Hopefully have fixed it all up now
20:03:37 <jhawkesworth_> fingers crossed.  Had to replace mainboard last year on mine, its never been quite the same since
20:03:55 <jborean93> I see there is 1 item in the agenda but that’s more specific to the user so I’ll reply there
20:04:25 <jhawkesworth_> yeah I don't think chopraaa is in the channel (unless under a different nick)?
20:04:30 <jborean93> I see you are trying to do a bug squashing event at fest which is nice
20:04:40 <jborean93> Anything in particular you wanted to target?
20:05:02 <jhawkesworth_> no just want to clear the decks and get a feel for what needs doing.
20:05:39 <jhawkesworth_> been a long time since last time we did one.
20:05:57 <jhawkesworth_> to be fair you are on top of new stuff as it comes in these days
20:06:26 <jborean93> I’ve been lagging behind the past week or so, need to get back into it
20:06:41 <jborean93> There’s a weird keel remote files issue I need to look into
20:06:56 <jborean93> Probably not the end of the world as that feature isn’t used too much IMO
20:07:17 * jhawkesworth_ not sure what a keel remote file is
20:07:44 <jborean93> It tells Ansible to keep a copy of all the module files it executes on the server instead of deleting it
20:08:06 <jborean93> Windows is a bit different as we pipeline in all circumstances
20:08:15 <jhawkesworth_> oh right ... I am out of touch, I didn't know that was a thing
20:08:20 <jborean93> The setting chnanges that and actually copies the payload wrapper across
20:08:31 <jborean93> I think it’s more used for debugging than anything else
20:08:36 <bcoca> https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/config.html#default-keep-remote-files
20:08:40 <jborean93> It’s a lot slower and more of a security issue
20:09:06 <jhawkesworth_> doh, of course, I used to use keep remote files
20:09:12 <nitzmahone> Like going back to 1.x ;)
20:09:15 <jhawkesworth_> brain fried, could not parse typo
20:09:30 <jborean93> Haha sorry, just realised I had keel
20:09:44 <jhawkesworth_> :-)
20:10:17 <jborean93> I probably wanted to add a topic to the ether pad about the legacy/basic work for Windows modules to sort of show what I’ve been working on recently
20:10:59 <jhawkesworth_> oh yeah that would be good to get an idea of what you've found and where you think it needs to go next
20:11:30 * nitzmahone is about 1/3 through code review on that, then want to play with it on a couple modules
20:12:27 <jborean93> nitzmahone: that PR is more the first part that doesn’t include the basic wrapper yet. Once/if that gets in I’m going back to the 2nd PR
20:13:13 <jhawkesworth_> nice.  would be good to see how it feels to work with it.
20:15:08 <jborean93> In trying to emulate the Python side but will talk about it more at Fest
20:15:31 <jborean93> Is there anything you wanted to discuss today?
20:15:33 <jhawkesworth_> cool.  I just added a topic
20:15:50 <crossan007> Hiya all
20:15:56 <jhawkesworth_> not from me
20:16:03 <jhawkesworth_> hey crossan007
20:16:15 <crossan007> still chugging away on my win_iis_logs :-)
20:16:19 <jborean93> Hey
20:16:22 <crossan007> running it in QC env today.
20:17:34 <jhawkesworth_> seems like a nice thing to have, although I think we pretty much stick with default IIS  log configuration at $dayjob
20:18:04 <crossan007> my $dayjob wants to add lots of custom fields to the IIS logs
20:20:24 <jborean93> I’m curious to see if there is a DSC resource that can control this, always wary of doing more IIS work considering the state of the current modules
20:22:55 <nitzmahone> https://github.com/PowerShell/xWebAdministration/blob/e273b8b50a47ac48a878db5f71d43f7d857f3f29/DSCResources/MSFT_xIisLogging/MSFT_xIisLogging.psm1
20:23:00 <nitzmahone> Looks like it :)
20:23:59 <jborean93> cool, will have a look at that when reviewing the module
20:27:52 <jborean93> anything else we want to discuss?
20:28:04 <nitzmahone> not from me
20:28:33 <jborean93> cccccchuctutvvdhlcdfgvucgunuhiivjvbdhgriuetb
20:28:39 * jborean93 sighs
20:28:54 <jhawkesworth_> cat sit on your keyboard?
20:29:02 <jborean93> taps my yubikey
20:29:14 <jhawkesworth_> doh!
20:29:54 <jhawkesworth_> no nothing from me.  Went down the rabbit hole of IIS Rest API here: https://github.com/Microsoft/IIS.Administration
20:30:23 <jborean93> sounds like fun
20:30:29 <jborean93> will bring the meeting to a close then
