Hopefully a little celebration about this will give them more energy for us. 15:12:31 I can follow up with vittyvk. 15:13:11 * davdunc Thanks cjp256 If it doesn't get merged, we have a contingency plan to publish the cloud-init images. We'll discuss that a little later. 15:13:33 * ACTION: davdunc to publish outline for release blog for the cloud edition. 15:14:32 I put up a hackmd.io link for getting started on the blog. If you can't access the link. 15:14:38 I'm looking up the link. 15:16:16 #link https://hackmd.io/9Y5tH7y2TUKsaqy58HwZ5A 15:16:23 * davdunc okay. 15:16:32 and i still intend to help with that -- just been in quarterly meetings in $dayjob lately πŸ˜‰ 15:17:06 mhayden: I hear you. I'll be on holiday starting today, so I'll have some time to do some writing without interruption. :D 15:17:44 πŸ‘πŸ» 15:18:00 #topic 364 Re-establish Fedora Cloud as a Fedora Edition 15:18:19 #link https://pagure.io/cloud-sig/issue/364 15:18:47 * davdunc bcotton kindly created a ticket to include some missing web content. 15:19:07 bcotton++ 15:19:07 davdunc: Karma for bcotton changed to 7 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:19:19 doing other people's jobs for them. Thank you. 15:19:25 that bcotton is super nice 15:19:30 #link https://pagure.io/fedora-web/websites/issue/270 15:19:46 that's not what i've heard about him ;-) 15:20:10 I'll build the content today, but I need to hear from you what we want to build out. 15:21:08 * davdunc Any opinions on what we should be including and where we need to be included in the new website? 15:21:15 #chair cmurf 15:21:15 Current chairs: Eighth_Doctor cmurf davdunc davide dcavalca dustymabe mhayden nzwulfin themayor 15:21:52 * davdunc OnuralpSezer[m]: ping. do you have suggestions on where we need to include content? 15:22:19 davdunc: didn't we have a conversation via video with someone about that already? 15:23:01 mhayden: we did, with Emma, but I am not sure that they have had time to do anything about it. Best that we expedite, I think 15:23:31 Emphasis on target markets and use cases, and link to installation and setup documentation 15:24:10 everyone is busy, so I just want to get it delivered and then we can work on cleaning it up for their needs. 15:24:15 it seems i always have to dig around for cloudinit info to get the images to even boot to a prompt - it's a different user experience than some folks might be expecting 15:24:44 cmurf: yes and that should be a part of moving our documentation from the wiki to the docs.fp.org 15:24:58 the qa testcase has steps to get me to a prompt but that's probably not the thing we want people actually doing for potentially production usage 15:25:38 s/potentially// 15:25:57 cmurf: better documentation around the cloud-init experience seems like a big win. Obviously we can learn from dustymabe and the butane/ignition docs they have out. 15:26:06 ugh, i guess i misunderstood where we were in the process around the web content πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ 15:26:32 yeah at this point it's, semi-urgent 15:26:36 mhayden: I did too. Eighth_Doctor has been making noise about it, but I didn't really get it either. 15:26:46 the openssl issue might mean we slip but there's arguments both ways 15:26:59 so it seems we need a little blurb/sentence to go here: https://getfedora.org/ 15:27:01 in hindsight i'm not sure i'd vote to slip 15:27:15 but then the other editions have nicely designed pages like these: https://getfedora.org/en/server/ 15:27:23 we also should probably have alt.fp.o/cloud become cloud.fp.o again 15:27:24 cmurf: we just need to get them what they should have and then get it on the web. 15:27:24 ergo if we don't slip, we're shipping next week tuesday 15:27:32 yep 15:27:38 alt is for "stuff we don't care about" 15:27:55 cmurf: yea I want to make this finished today. 15:28:19 we definitely need a cloud specific landing page, not on alt 15:28:26 Eighth_Doctor: we can reuse the build scripts for the menus. 15:28:45 but make sure the cloud landing is working before removing alt πŸ˜› or it's a net worse position 15:28:46 +1 cmurf 15:28:51 count on us slipping though 15:29:01 there's +10 for blocking on openssl 3.0.7 15:29:25 Eighth_Doctor, we'll hope for more time, but we need to complete today. I'll take that action to complete the page. 15:29:31 yeah i know but since then there's a better argument from Stephen Gallagher to not block on this 15:29:59 I'm asking for the rest of you to know that I may reach out in short notice for help. 15:30:42 i'm around 15:30:46 we will need to get better cloud artwork, but I don't see that as a blocker. 15:30:50 davdunc: my calendar is clear after lunch as long as you promise not to tell anyone else 15:30:51 cmurf++ 15:30:51 davdunc: Karma for chrismurphy changed to 1 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:31:09 mhayden: your secret is safe with ... me. 15:31:18 πŸ‘€ 15:31:28 awesome. 15:31:29 unfortunately, my day is a bit full today 15:31:36 but you also know everything I know about cloud anyway :) 15:31:52 Eighth_Doctor: understood. You have really helped by keeping the ball in the air, so thanks. 15:32:01 mhayden: the minutes will betray you πŸ˜† 15:32:15 let's not info that! 15:32:19 Eighth_Doctor++ for keeping it in process. 15:32:19 davdunc: Karma for ngompa changed to 2 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:33:23 * davdunc #action davdunc to complete all content for cloud edition page by end of day, Oct 27th to ensure we are ready for release. 15:33:49 did that work or did I just mess it up with my special enter mistake. 15:33:53 ? 15:34:42 i think you can't use "me" and a meetbot command 15:35:49 oh does Element consider # at the beginning something special? 15:35:50 #action davdunc to complete all content for cloud edition page by end of day, Oct 27th to ensure we are ready for release. 15:35:57 there it goes 15:36:01 well there it is! 15:36:31 okay. That's great. I'll update the websites ticket with the content link and then make a PR for the website 15:36:57 * davdunc I already have the content cloned. 15:37:09 that cmd key is going to get me in trouble. 15:38:04 okay moving on. 15:38:16 Lol 15:38:33 #topic Images for the Azure Marketplace 15:38:37 You’ve been abusing that cmd key lately 15:38:44 themayor: you have no idea. 15:39:27 so my first plan here is to upload these manually. 15:39:41 dustymabe: I'll need your help to get the credentials right, etc. 15:40:00 Did we figure out how we’re doing the conversion to VHD? 15:40:23 we can do that with img-convert yes? 15:40:32 we already have a raw. 15:41:03 we have to do conversion for essentially every platform. 15:42:04 anyone have a concern over that? 15:42:54 okay that's my plan now 15:43:29 #action davdunc work with dustymabe to get the images up into the Azure Marketplace under the Fedora group 15:43:41 themayor: what do you think? 15:44:16 That’s sound fine. Yes we can use img-convert 15:44:43 #topic 392 Static Checksum files are missing for Cloud Images in getfedora.org 15:44:47 So do you want to talk about the backup plan with the cloud-init images now? 15:44:52 Oops. Sorry. 15:45:06 themayor: I think we established that in the last meeting. 15:45:28 Ok cool. You mentioned earlier you wanted to say something about it 15:45:35 once we have the images with the included waagent then we will update and provide release notes. 15:45:38 That’s fine. The plan sounds good 15:45:54 Do we need coordination with releng to supply converted images? That way the images' hash signatures are included in the Fedora GPG signed file listing all the image hashes? 15:46:11 cmurf: we do. 15:47:33 cmurf: can you help me get the work done to submit it as a job and then work with the releng team to produce the checksum 15:47:36 ? 15:48:01 #link https://pagure.io/fedora-web/websites/issue/267 15:48:35 The checksums have apparently moved, so our upload steps videos that dustymabe created to help me out are no longer valid. 15:48:50 I can file a releng ticket, I'm not sure what's involved to submit it as a job but letting us know what we need to do can be part of the ticket 15:49:39 Is there a complete list of Cloud images somewhere that we plan to release? 15:49:43 cmurf: maybe you can just help me get the steps straight and the ticket. 15:50:12 sure 15:50:23 cmurf: there is not, but we can add that to a tracking ticket. 15:50:51 #action davdunc create issue with all of the images that we plan to release. 15:51:52 I'll also include that in the page build 15:52:36 uhoh... 15:53:04 So I just notice the change proposal doesn't have a releng issue number 15:53:16 s/notice/noticed/ 15:53:27 FESCO didn't call us out on that 15:53:55 I guess it wasn't seen as an issue because all the Cloud images have been created this whole time 15:54:02 Was that something we needed to create ourselves? I thought that we didn't have any modifications in releng and that was why there wasn't a change. 15:54:17 but if there are new image formats we want to support via manual conversion, yeah I think we have to ask if releng will even sign them 15:54:19 yea. we were in a holding pattern to get it done. 15:54:31 otherwise there would be a ticket to revert. 15:54:35 or if they are just extras that can't be signed if they're not part of the automated releng process, i'm not sure what their rules are 15:55:40 pretty sure they won't host images that they don't sign and the signing mechanism is entirely automated, so if there's a disconnect here that prevents us from providing manually converted images, we might just have to document conversion 15:55:55 anyway, all these can be answered by just filing a releng ticket 15:56:38 well, for the Azure images, it's a net new image and one that I would say is "preview" compared to the other work we have done. We do test the images in Azure already though. 15:57:51 ok 15:58:23 I just want to make sure that we have a way to get them there, we can publish the checksums to the mailing list 15:58:45 that way we have a way to track them at least after the conversion 15:59:04 the image id's are canonical anyway 15:59:32 okay 15:59:39 #topic open floor 15:59:57 anything that we need to air in this final minute? 16:00:34 thanks everyone for being here. 16:00:47 #endmeeting
