15:02:18 that's the #milk-and-cookies channel 15:02:47 kparal: ah, so this must be the Beefy Miracle channel then ;-) 15:02:54 only if milk means 'work' and cookies means...'more work' 15:03:10 * pschindl is here 15:03:22 adamw: then I guess it's the right place :) 15:03:24 adamw: those sound like crappy milk & cookies to me 15:03:46 heya vita 15:04:28 #topic previous meeting follow up 15:04:44 so, let's see...I wasn't around for last week, but here's the action items... 15:04:59 "tflink build python-yourls for F16, F15, EL6 so we can stop dicussing this" 15:05:03 tflink, did you stop sucking yet? 15:05:22 adamw: packages built, updates submitted 15:05:37 #info tflink finally stopped sucking like a dyson, python-yourls is built and submitted 15:05:38 ... finally 15:05:47 wow, somebody 15:05:55 's grouchy today :) 15:06:04 it's 8am on a monday, i'm ALWAYS grouchy ;) 15:06:12 'adamw will draft release criteria change proposals and send out to test@' 15:06:26 did that, and we committed most of them already 15:07:00 #info adamw submitted the release criteria proposals that came out of recent blocker review meetings 15:07:17 on a related note... 15:07:18 'tflink to move Xen release criterion discussion to devel@' 15:07:31 i believe we moved it there, moved it back, and accepted a final criterion in the end 15:07:39 did that, no objections from devel@ 15:07:55 AFAIK, you have it correct 15:08:19 eggscellent 15:08:33 #info Xen criteria discussion went to -devel, came back, and we accepted a criterion for Final 15:09:01 'tflink to continue pestering Cloud SIG people about test cases and coordination' 15:09:27 I've been pestering, supposedly it's going to come together today or tomorrow 15:09:31 cool. 15:09:37 we do obviously need better xen test cases 15:10:05 yeah, I was going to send something to fedora-xen@ asking for help and testers 15:10:13 #info 'I've been pestering, supposedly it's going to come together today or tomorrow' 15:10:23 excellent...anything I missed from last week? 15:10:30 but I don't think that we need the xen cases for the cloud test day 15:11:01 oh, I did ask the cloud sig to help formalize the EC2 test cases so they aren't scattered about different wiki pages 15:11:45 cool 15:12:07 * tflink wonders where we're going to puth them in the matrix, though 15:12:53 the validation matrix? or the cloud test day matrix? 15:13:12 the validation matrix, the test day is up to the cloud SIG 15:13:21 same place as the other virt tests, i guess.\ 15:13:50 for the short term, sure but I'm not sure that EC2 tests qualify as installation tests 15:14:02 either way, not something to worry about right now 15:15:05 sure. 15:15:10 #topic Final preparation 15:15:46 Yay 15:15:48 well, nothing much specific to bring up here, but we're into the Final cycle now...TC1 is out and needs all validation testing run, we've spotted some issues with the metadata but most tests should be possible 15:15:57 * kparal has a related note 15:16:00 yup? 15:16:15 i'm not aware of any major pending changes which would demand a tc2 unless we re-spin for the metadata issues 15:16:43 due to Ben Levenson's incentive, I have talked to a few local team leaders in Brno and they have agreed to lend a few of their interns for the final release validation 15:17:01 so I just want to note that you can expect a few more people to be reporting bugs, hopefully 15:17:15 (does reporting new bugs in F16 count as "hopefully"?) 15:17:33 kparal: that's awesome, nice move 15:17:46 thanks for looking after that 15:17:48 I will have a meeting with them tomorrow and show them how to do installation and desktop testing 15:18:04 Kparal: indeed 15:18:05 end of note 15:18:50 What sort of meta data issues are we 15:19:01 Talking 15:19:20 I haven.t seen any 15:19:38 Bloody phone keyboard 15:20:18 is it related to missing x64 images? 15:20:53 missing .treeinfo and repodata 15:21:01 Ah 15:21:03 which can affect some install types i think, like preupgrade 15:22:06 Yay more pre upgrade issues 15:22:17 yup :/ 15:22:21 so TC2 will be soon? 15:22:35 no, the opposite: unless we decide the metadata issues need a respin i think there's no specific need for a tc2 15:22:56 and the missing x64 images will be provided? 15:23:04 i think they showed up now didn't they? 15:23:11 no 15:23:17 adamw: http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/16.TC1/Fedora/x86_64/ 15:23:18 no 15:23:28 oh, nup, not yet. yeeks. 15:23:44 #action adamw to check with dgilmore where we are with x86_64 iso generation 15:24:01 okay, other reason to build a tc2 would be if that would get us x86_64 images...i'll co-ordinate with releng on that 15:24:37 otherwise i guess we could do one next week to pick up general package set changes, but there's not really a huge amount of reason to re-spin unless certain sensitive packages change (anaconda, kernel, lorax etc) 15:25:08 * j_dulaney thinks a tc2 would not be a bad thing 15:25:27 next week is RC1 15:25:35 Ah 15:25:42 26th is the plan 15:25:57 oh, right. i meant later this week. 15:26:00 Maybe that will be sufficient 15:26:01 * adamw still catching up with the universe in general 15:26:06 :D 15:26:09 the 32-bit half of the install text matrix is almost done and looks good 15:26:14 yeah 15:26:34 only thorny area i'm really worried about is the grub2/bios raid issues; i'll try and get pjones looking at that 15:27:10 people might want to look at bugs 746509 / 746529 having to do with installing TC1 live to hard drive 15:27:19 thanks for the flag up 15:27:27 black screen in x after installing 15:27:30 so, aside from a potential tc1, we have the blocker review on friday, of course 15:28:54 anyone else have anything to bring up or concerns about the final process? 15:31:00 okay, cool. I had a 'criteria revisions' topic on the list but really we covered it in previous meeting follow-up - we accepted most of the proposed criteria already. 15:31:08 so... 15:31:12 #topic upcoming QA events 15:32:12 well a big vote of thanks to a. s. alam for taking on the role of QA presenter at FUDCon Pune, which for those in Asia is coming up early next month 15:32:32 http://fudcon.in/ - 2011-11-04 to 2011-11-06 15:33:32 aside from that, we have TC1 testing all week, and the blocker review on Friday 2011-10-21 15:33:39 #info we have TC1 testing all week, and the blocker review on Friday 2011-10-21 15:33:59 Thursday 2011-10-20 is Cloud Test Day, I believe tflink's been trying to herd that one? 15:34:11 #info Thursday 2011-10-20 is Cloud Test Day 15:34:18 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2011-10-20_Cloud_SIG_Test_Day 15:34:51 trying, looks like there are going to be a lot of components 15:35:12 I think that some openstack and possibly euca people will be around 15:35:31 in addition to EC2, boxgrinder and aeolus 15:35:32 * maxamillion is here ... late but here (which is becoming par for the course) 15:35:51 so ... lots of stuff to test :) 15:36:22 so it'll be a hot mess, i guess :) 15:36:29 yeah, probably 15:38:07 but sounds like stuff will get done. hey, at the worst, we can get the cloud teams to test each others' clouds. :) 15:38:39 and hopefully, we'll get some good test cases and docs out of it 15:38:42 yup. 15:39:21 okay, moving swiftly on... 15:39:36 oh, tflink / kparal, is it worth doing an autoqa update segment? 15:39:48 I don't think so 15:39:56 I can't think of anything worth noting 15:42:14 okay 15:42:26 nirik: anything from proventesters? 15:42:58 not off hand, some more ideas... 15:43:25 okay 15:43:48 #topic open discussion 15:44:04 any other business? cookies? milk? plans for world domination? 15:44:19 I submitted an NTH request for a regression in the rc9 kernel. 15:44:39 I got Adam's deadwood cleanup patch into spin-kickstarts. 15:44:59 brunowolff: what is the bug # on that? 15:45:35 note that we're not frozen yet so there can be a kernel update any time the kernel team wants there to be one 15:45:45 i should probably poke them and remind them of the schedule so they can plan their builds 15:45:45 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=746485 15:45:59 brunowolff: thanks 15:46:02 brunowolff: oh, yeah, thanks for that - actually that may be a reason to do a tc2, as well... 15:46:11 Linus is taking his time getting the 3.1 final out. 15:46:29 #info brunowolff committed adamw's systemd conversion for spin-kickstarts, so tc2 and later will have the systemd-based livesys 15:46:49 I don't think that's the right bug. 15:47:24 This was the one where some chkconfig's were changed to use native systemd commands. 15:47:29 #action adamw to co-ordinate with kernel team for final release build 15:47:37 The livesys one looked more dangerous. 15:47:45 oh right, sorry 15:48:01 #undo 15:48:01 Removing item from minutes: 15:48:02 #undo 15:48:02 Removing item from minutes: 15:48:26 If you think it is safe I could try to test it over the next couple of days. That seems a bit risky, but it would be in before freeze? 15:48:27 #info brunowolff committed adamw's patch to clean up service disablement in live images for systemd 15:48:33 brunowolff: no, let's leave that for 17 15:48:38 OK. 15:48:44 #action adamw to co-ordinate with kernel team for final release build 15:51:33 I'll be branching spin-kickstarts soon. 15:52:52 cool. 15:52:56 welp, sounds like that's everything 15:53:00 * adamw sets fuse for one minute 15:56:48 the fuse exploded some time ago? 15:57:40 oh no! it got adamw! 15:58:06 that 'it' is a killer 15:58:47 he might be just moving fast enough that one minute has not passed yet for him ;) 15:58:57 * tflink always wondered what the fuse was attached to 16:01:32 You really should be using a fuze and not a fuse 16:05:29 maybe the too early getting up killed him 16:05:35 I totally understand that 16:05:47 anyway, kparal goes off 16:05:52 have a nice day everyone 16:15:00 adamw: you might want to end the meeting :) 16:15:24 no one else has chair? 16:15:49 I don't think so 16:17:22 adamw: END THE MEETING 16:17:25 maybe that works 16:17:31 #endmeeting 16:17:51 this is why extra chairs are needed 16:18:28 .addchair #fedora-meeting nirik 16:18:28 nirik: (addchair ) -- Add a nick as a chair to the meeting. 16:18:35 .addchair #fedora-meeting freenode nirik 16:18:35 nirik: Chair added: nirik on (#fedora-meeting, freenode). 16:18:39 #endmeeting
