There isn't a clear component for them 19:03:44 * rbergeron wonders whre we'd track a bug if we had some filed? 19:03:53 Distribution? 19:04:00 yeah, i mean we could get a trac instance, or get it added to bugzilla 19:04:07 * jforbes has no desire to track all of the distribution queue 19:04:15 jforbes: :) 19:04:24 Adding an EC2 sub to distribution sounds like a decent enough idea 19:04:37 Well, the bugzappers can help, too... 19:04:41 Yeah, there's an idea. 19:06:04 * rbergeron wonders who might want to take tha ttask on if everyone thinks it sounds reasonable 19:06:25 I'm not even sure who one should ask about that sort of thing. 19:06:35 In other, less important news. I am getting billed by amazon still, so the fedora image account needs some sort of responsible party... I can cover it until that is figured out. It isnt hitting my card anymore 19:07:08 gholms: bz admins... possibly dgilmore? 19:07:11 We dont get billed for the storage, and are not using machine time, but we do get billed for transfers still, so I am guessing on a regular release it will be less than $1 19:07:12 * rbergeron looks at spevack and points above to jforbes' line 19:07:33 last months bill was $0.30 19:07:37 i can figure out how to get it added. 19:07:41 jforbes: gumball and some change :) 19:07:47 jgreguske: im no bugzilla admin 19:07:58 ah ok. me either 19:08:05 dgilmore: Never mind, then. :( 19:08:13 rbergeron: Right, like I said, I dont mind paying it unitl we figure something out, but removing my credit card just means a bill sits there that has to be paid 19:08:14 * spevack chuckles at a monthly bill of 30 cents 19:08:18 * rbergeron thinks she knows who to talk to 19:08:24 the bill for community-cloud@fedoraproject.org last month was $450 19:08:38 s/last month/in April 19:08:38 spot: Probably costs them more to run the credit card 19:08:39 spevack: i know, but can't we just figure out how to merge them? 19:08:39 ouch 19:09:02 i'm just puzzled why we seem to have multiples 19:09:05 i guess 19:09:32 #action rbergeron to figure out adding an ec2 component to bz 19:09:58 rbergeron: merging would be difficult because this account has free S3 tagged, they can't tag the other account because it hosts more than just official images 19:10:35 I see they've made this very simple for everyone. no wonder amazon's stock is going up 89 dollars a day 19:10:39 * rbergeron grins 19:10:57 rbergeron: Though we have multiples I am guessing because when gregdek told me to create the account, I dont think he knew about the other. 19:11:23 ooh. 19:11:34 * rbergeron makes a note to beat greg senseless sometime 19:11:35 :) 19:11:39 D: 19:11:56 okay. 19:12:03 ummm.... anything else then, i guess? 19:12:09 Hang on a sec 19:12:11 nothing else at this point 19:12:24 * rbergeron hangs 19:12:26 #info jforbes is working on resolving a SELinux issue on the EC2 image 19:12:30 Carry on :) 19:12:36 * rbergeron carries onward. 19:12:45 #topic CloudFS 19:12:53 jdarcy: how was your week? anything fun to report 19:13:02 Nope, not really. ;) 19:13:25 Seriously, though, I have a talk at Summit which was pretty well received considering that it was at the end of a long day and there was free beer elsewhere in the building. 19:13:45 That's another way to say that I was speaking to an empty room. 19:13:52 hardly empty 19:14:06 Well, about 40 people in a room that seats 200. 19:14:16 jdarcy: any attendance at all when competing with free beer is a great thing 19:14:19 Blog post (with link to slides) here: http://cloudfs.org/2011/05/red-hat-summit-slides/ 19:14:45 There was actually some good back-and-forth with those who did attend, and some other good hallway conversations during the day. 19:15:15 * rbergeron nods 19:15:16 Now that that's done I'm back to coding. Almost done with the second version of the xattr-prefetch patch so it can be accepted upstream. 19:15:48 The commentary on the first patch was quite enlightening. 19:15:53 After that, I'll be working on SSL transport, packaging/merging, etc. GlusterFS is at 3.1.4/3.2 now, we kind of need to update that. 19:16:09 gholms: Yeah, Avati's thorough. 19:16:35 Kaleb, anything you want to add>? 19:16:38 I tried to build cloudfs against 3.2 on f14. They've done something that makes it unhappy 19:16:58 Yay, more job security,. 19:17:38 lol 19:17:53 I'm working, oh, ~20% on migrating the UI I did into the bottle-based cloudfsd that Jeff started. The other ~80% I'm coding a new translator to do uid and gid mapping. Should have something worth playing with in a day or three 19:18:01 #info Working on GlusterFS 3.2 support 19:18:20 Yaay 19:18:36 Edward popped up this week, still seems to be working on encryption stuff. 19:18:37 * rbergeron thanks gholms for being more meetingsavvy than she's feeling today 19:19:15 Oh, and I wrote up some instructions for deploying some parts of GlusterFS/CloudFS as a personal not-really-Dropbox-like cloud file store. Got so many hits that my host complained. 19:19:22 wow 19:19:37 #info Work on UI, encryption, xattr prefetching continues 19:19:43 Nice 19:20:31 right, morning! 19:20:40 (I'm confused by the time) 19:20:43 hey mgoldmann 19:20:49 Time zones.
