Did anyone see any issues not mentioned? 14:17:11 wa1em: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/iot/prd/ 14:19:58 not seeing anything too bad at a quick glance can do soem testing of my own later today tho and update as needed 14:20:10 of the RC1 issues, the only remaining issue was 'console=tty0' on the kargs 14:20:33 I think we can document how to remove it for those that want to use a serial console 14:21:07 pwhalen, I'd almost argue most users of the sig would natively know how to tho no? 14:21:42 the average joe is not mucking with kargs in my experience 14:22:18 wa1em, they should, and I might be the only one using serial console. 14:22:32 serial is not dead 14:22:44 I love serial for headless rack uses or rPI 14:23:10 me too :) 14:24:02 tdawson++ 14:24:02 pwhalen: Karma for tdawson changed to 1 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:24:08 thanks for all the testing 14:24:22 Very welcome 14:25:52 * pbrobinson is much more here now 14:25:54 sorry 14:26:08 Is there going to be another RC, so I can test updating ... er ... whatever updating is called with ostree 14:26:44 tdawson: I don't plan to, but we'll be enabling updates via bodhi 14:26:48 I think the only issue we found with RC2 is the added console. so it depends on if we consider it a blocker or not 14:26:59 the updates haven't been a problem though 14:27:09 for the masses I'd be -1 blocking 14:27:43 I'd agree. We can document the work around for those using serial 14:28:15 or just have a polite, refer to serial console use 101 docs 14:29:44 I personally vote for documentation on how to use serial. I don't usually use it, and if/when I do, this sig would be where I'd go to find out because these would be the machines I'd have it on. 14:30:01 so I think we're good to go, I'll post out to the mailing list for further testing but I think this is now done 14:30:20 I'm fine with us explaining it, or a link to someone else explaining it good, either way. 14:30:20 to also note I plan to do another release based on f29 in Jan 14:31:21 pbrobinson, as an aside can you cc me on that until I have time to visit the mailserv and add myself properly 14:31:27 tdawson, agreed 14:33:02 sounds like everyone is +1 for a go on RC2, any -1? 14:33:16 wa1em: probably not, firstly I have no idea what you're email is, and there is archives 14:33:48 my fp.o is what I use mostly for mailserv but okay I'll just add to the todo list tonight 14:33:49 pwhalen: +1 from me :) 14:33:58 +1 on running with RC2 from me 14:34:09 pwhalen: +1 from me 14:34:45 wa1em: unless your fp.o is your irc nick I won't remember the connection 14:34:54 it is 14:35:11 are we doing the typical Tuesday Fedora release, or breaking free from that tradition? 14:35:19 I'll just email yours and ask for the iot sig invite and do the mailserv myself 14:37:04 pwhalen: I'll work that out in the morning, I don't think there will be a huge fan fair etc 14:37:22 I think quite a few of us might be on PTO next week as well 14:37:31 ok, sounds good 14:38:59 #info f29 iot is good to go 14:39:11 #topic 3) ==== Open Floor ==== 14:39:37 any one have anything to address? 14:40:33 * pwhalen has nothing 14:41:08 just a quick Q from me: is it safe to assume there will be IoT at DefConf next month? 14:41:46 I need to request time off soon but there's no schedule yet 14:42:00 stellirin: DefConf? No, never heard of it 14:42:19 sorry, DevConf in Brno, run by RedHat 14:42:47 If you mean DevConf, I've no idea, I'm not currently scheduled to be there but due to other reasons I may well be there 14:42:53 I'll be there :) 14:43:04 sneaky pete :P 14:43:15 heh :) 14:43:32 I don't believe there's currently an IoT specific track, but I'm sure there will be talks 14:43:47 ok cool, it's only an hour away from me so i will probably attend too 14:44:01 lorbus: well I wasn't involved in the pre engineering meetings for "reasons" 14:44:12 coreos people at RH meet up one day prior to conf start 14:44:49 * tdawson will not be there. 14:44:57 stellirin: it's a awesome conference and I've been the last number of years, but I'm in the Southern hemisphere atm and it was going to be another week in the heat 14:45:54 I'd prefer that too, I don't think is anybody is going to be mad at you for it pbrobinson 14:46:17 great, for work reasons we will try to find out stuff about openshift, but i would like to see iot or arm too 14:47:01 stellirin: there will no doubt be a lot of stuff around openshift, and the coreos tech bits will be very useful to IoT too 14:47:24 the DevConf schedule should be posted any day now 14:48:05 i don't see anything that explicitly says "IoT" in the draft schedule, but that doesn't mean there won't be content 14:48:36 gtg. great work FIoT 29 everyone!! 14:49:17 lorbus: how are you getting on, what's the plans for greenboot? 14:50:14 pbrobinson: its on the board for next sprint startin Thursday, should get to it Friday 14:50:38 lorbus++ awesome! 14:53:08 right, if nobody has anything else I think we'll end this, of course general chat is always welcome on #fedora-iot :) 14:53:21 pbrobinson++ 14:53:42 Nothing here 14:54:10 #endmeeting
