2025-01-15 17:00:53 <@davide:cavalca.name> morning everyone

2025-01-15 17:04:25 <@davide:cavalca.name> let's get started
2025-01-15 17:04:26 <@davide:cavalca.name> !topic Followups
2025-01-15 17:04:39 <@davide:cavalca.name> we are overdue for a SIG report, which is mostly my fault
2025-01-15 17:05:13 <@davide:cavalca.name> https://hackmd.io/j4oSvY7KTvuwyUxSxRs14g is the draft, I will try to wrap this up today, but feel free to review/add as needed
2025-01-15 17:05:15 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> it's been a difficult year
2025-01-15 17:06:51 <@davide:cavalca.name> did we have anything else for followups?
2025-01-15 17:07:17 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> probably need to re-review the draft because things have changed in the past week
2025-01-15 17:08:27 <@davide:cavalca.name> tbh I'm inclined to make this just cover up to Q4 and put anything new in the next one
2025-01-15 17:08:31 <@davide:cavalca.name> otherwise we'll never finish it lol
2025-01-15 17:09:26 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> yeah
2025-01-15 17:09:42 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> we gotta have _something_ for the next report :P
2025-01-15 17:11:40 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> I do have a followup though
2025-01-15 17:12:42 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> My work to get Wayland-native Anaconda live installer code from Fedora backported to RHEL 10 has all landed and been released
2025-01-15 17:13:03 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> It's not yet in a compose, but there's a build in Stream Koji now
2025-01-15 17:14:12 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> so I'm getting very close to being ready to produce live media for Hyperscale 10
2025-01-15 17:14:24 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> there's still a few more things to do, but we're getting there
2025-01-15 17:16:05 <@davide:cavalca.name> excellent
2025-01-15 17:16:10 <@davide:cavalca.name> let's move on to
2025-01-15 17:16:14 <@davide:cavalca.name> !topic Announcements
2025-01-15 17:16:27 <@davide:cavalca.name> CentOS Connect is in a few weeks in Brussels, and a bunch of us will be there
2025-01-15 17:16:42 <@davide:cavalca.name> and we'll have our usual Hyperscale update talk, plus a SIG face-to-face meetup
2025-01-15 17:17:07 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> the meetup this time will be a dual-SIG meetup, with the Alternative Images SIG too
2025-01-15 17:17:17 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> since we have lots of overlap
2025-01-15 17:17:21 <@davide:cavalca.name> do we have remote attendees joining this time?
2025-01-15 17:17:36 <@davide:cavalca.name> last couple of times we didn't, and I'd rather not lug the camera around if I don't have to
2025-01-15 17:18:28 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> I don't know. I did mention in the Fedora Workstation WG meeting yesterday that we would be interested in some Fedora/RHEL GNOME folks attending since Michel Lind 🎩⛱️ UTC-8 until Jan 19 plans to make a Hyperscale GNOME thing.
2025-01-15 17:18:55 <@davide:cavalca.name> maybe we should do an eventbrite for this to gauge attendance
2025-01-15 17:19:02 <@davide:cavalca.name> or ideally something better because eventbrite sucks
2025-01-15 17:19:15 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> we could ask shaunm to make a pretix thing for it
2025-01-15 17:19:35 <@davide:cavalca.name> yeah in hindsight we should have just folded this into the regular Connect registration
2025-01-15 17:20:30 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> might be a good idea to do that for future meetups anyway
2025-01-15 17:20:46 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> that way we can know ahead of time if we need remote attendance equipment
2025-01-15 17:21:13 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> we lugged that stuff around a lot last year and it was a tossup on whether it was useful
2025-01-15 17:21:53 <@davide:cavalca.name> yeah
2025-01-15 17:22:00 <@davide:cavalca.name> anything else for announcements?
2025-01-15 17:22:28 <@daandemeyer/:matrix.org> The systemd fedora spec uses tmt now to run the upstream integration tests
2025-01-15 17:22:42 <@daandemeyer/:matrix.org> (With the packages built in koji)
2025-01-15 17:22:48 <@daandemeyer/:matrix.org> via testing-farm
2025-01-15 17:23:07 <@daandemeyer/:matrix.org> We can see about reusing testing-farm in gitlab for our spec as well
2025-01-15 17:26:08 <@davide:cavalca.name> sweet
2025-01-15 17:26:24 <@davide:cavalca.name> on that note I started testing out gitlab for our packages
2025-01-15 17:26:42 <@davide:cavalca.name> things should more or less work already, but we need to agree on a convention for branch names and document it
2025-01-15 17:27:32 <@davide:cavalca.name> I don't personally have a strong opinion on this, happy to do whatever y'all prefer; ideally we can then propose this as guidance for other sigs as well, though I kinda expect everyone to do their own thing here
2025-01-15 17:28:13 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> as most of our packages are forks of fedora or centos packages, I'd like us to make it so that it's possible for us to have a merged repo of branches
2025-01-15 17:29:01 <@davide:cavalca.name> agreed
2025-01-15 17:29:22 <@davide:cavalca.name> next up
2025-01-15 17:29:24 <@davide:cavalca.name> !topic Tickets
2025-01-15 17:29:40 <@davide:cavalca.name> I propose that we use the meetup in Brussels to clean these up
2025-01-15 17:29:46 <@davide:cavalca.name> as the board right now isn't terribly useful
2025-01-15 17:31:01 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> yes
2025-01-15 17:31:17 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> though we should probably have a ticket for tracking our ruleset for gitlab based packaging
2025-01-15 17:31:31 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> though we should probably have a ticket for tracking making the ruleset for gitlab based packaging
2025-01-15 17:31:45 <@davide:cavalca.name> ah good idea, do you want to file one?
2025-01-15 17:31:57 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> yeah I'll do that
2025-01-15 17:32:18 <@davide:cavalca.name> thanks
2025-01-15 17:33:27 <@jonathanspw:fedora.im> !hi
2025-01-15 17:33:28 <@zodbot:fedora.im> Jonathan Wright (jonathanspw)
2025-01-15 17:34:05 <@davide:cavalca.name> next up

2025-01-15 17:34:15 <@davide:cavalca.name> we have one ticket: https://pagure.io/centos-sig-hyperscale/sig/issue/182
2025-01-15 17:34:26 <@davide:cavalca.name> Ivan cannot join us today but he gave me a statement to share
2025-01-15 17:34:43 <@davide:cavalca.name> > Hi. I’m Ivan Kruglov. I’m a half system engineer half SRE. Together with Daan and Davide I’m currently working on developing and running systemd at massive infra scale. My latest contributing to systemd is varlink interface for managing virtual machines. The next to come is varlink interface for PID1. I’m interested in joining this SIG to work on hyperscale backport of systemd.
2025-01-15 17:35:31 <@davide:cavalca.name> are there any objections to Ivan joining the SIG ?
2025-01-15 17:36:24 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> nope
2025-01-15 17:36:59 <@rcolebaugh:matrix.org> no objections from me either
2025-01-15 17:37:25 <@davide:cavalca.name> !agreed welcome ikruglov to the Hyperscale SIG
2025-01-15 17:37:36 <@davide:cavalca.name> I will take care of the paperwork after this
2025-01-15 17:37:52 <@davide:cavalca.name> this leaves us with
2025-01-15 17:37:53 <@davide:cavalca.name> !topic Miscellaneous
2025-01-15 17:38:06 <@davide:cavalca.name> we have a SIG hangout this afternoon
2025-01-15 17:38:20 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> I'll be around for it
2025-01-15 17:38:38 <@davide:cavalca.name> I should be around for a bit as well
2025-01-15 17:39:24 <@rcolebaugh:matrix.org> Nice, I'll be there for a bit too!
2025-01-15 17:39:43 <@davide:cavalca.name> anything else folks want to talk about?
2025-01-15 17:40:09 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> do we have any upcoming conferences other than Connect to talk about?
2025-01-15 17:40:34 <@davide:cavalca.name> there's SCALE in March, though we'll see how it goes with the fires in LA...
2025-01-15 17:40:42 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> yeah...
2025-01-15 17:40:59 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> Texas Linuxfest moved to October
2025-01-15 17:41:08 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> which honestly is probably better for everyone involved
2025-01-15 17:41:12 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> a lot less crunchy
2025-01-15 17:42:51 <@davide:cavalca.name> that's usually when ASG is, so we'll see how the schedules work out
2025-01-15 17:43:07 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> iirc, ASG is September
2025-01-15 17:43:14 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> I'm still waiting to find out when Akademy will be
2025-01-15 17:43:39 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> it might be worth it for us to consider doing a Hyperscale talk at Akademy (which will _probably_ be in Berlin)
2025-01-15 17:43:58 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> last year ASG was right after Akademy
2025-01-15 17:47:02 <@conan_kudo:matrix.org> but it floats between July and September
2025-01-15 17:47:08 <@nhanlon:beeper.com> oh that's great news actually :D
2025-01-15 17:49:31 <@davide:cavalca.name> I think that's it for today, thanks everyone and see you soon
