I think the Change makes sense, but I would like to see the exact changes requested 14:09:37 since law_ is here, can we tell what exactly we would like to see happening? 14:10:40 law_, so I'm not going to go so far as to say I want a PR to the guidelines for us to review, but I'd like some kind of draft wording that describes what you want the policy to be 14:10:50 hey guys, sorry for being late, I just got home this second 14:11:15 PRs are obviously welcome, but it's hard for me to properly judge this Change unless I understand _what_ the change will be 14:11:38 Actually, why not ask directly for a PR? Doing the work once in free-form and then second time in markdown would be probably more work than just the second. 14:11:41 that's fair and not unexpected. I'm happy to provide a proposed change as a PR 14:11:53 law_++ 14:11:57 law++ 14:11:58 law++ 14:11:58 sgallagh: Karma for law changed to 1 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:12:04 blech 14:12:10 law++ 14:12:12 Conan_Kudo: Karma for law changed to 2 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:12:14 law++ 14:12:15 dcantrell: Karma for law changed to 3 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:12:17 law++ 14:12:17 bcotton: Karma for law changed to 4 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:12:38 zbyszek, I didn't want to turn it into "you need to have implementation before implementing" catch-22 14:12:46 #action law to propose PR for the Packaging Guidelines and we will vote again once that ready. 14:12:55 I didn't really know how to draw the line for policy-only changes like this 14:12:56 #topic #2390 Request to permit module default streams in ELN 14:13:07 .fesco 2390 14:13:08 ignatenkobrain: Issue #2390: Request to permit module default streams in ELN - fesco - Pagure.io - https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2390 14:13:34 for this one, I have several questions 14:13:50 I have been reading through the PR and the ongoing thread, but I'm not ready to vote yet 14:13:54 want to get through all of it 14:14:03 As discussion is still ongoing in the ticket, do we want to continue here or should we finish that up in the ticket first? 14:14:24 we should probably punt and let the discussion in the ticket flesh itself out 14:14:28 yeah, I haven't read up on this this morning and I see there was a flurry of activity 14:14:28 can we ack that it won't "just be allowed" but there will be some set of rules / a policy (this is AFAIK the current idea behind the docs PR, but I wanted to say it explicitly) 14:14:43 Yeah, sorry that I wasn't able to get back to it until last night 14:14:51 sgallagh, no worries 14:15:07 as it stands, I lean towards +1, but I do still have some concerns that I'd like to have ironed out 14:15:20 myself I put a list here - https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/modularity/pull-request/83#comment-123305 with those things in mind I would be +1 14:15:29 mhroncok: that sounds like where it was going, but do we need to decide that now? 14:15:46 we don't, it was just an idea 14:16:53 sgallagh: so what about we finish discussion in that PR and you update request with all new details and we vote on it once ready? 14:16:54 I suggest that FESCo should vote to accept or deny the policy once we iron it out in the doc PR and that will answer this ticket. 14:17:12 ignatenkobrain: I think we're on the same page here 14:17:21 sgallagh++ 14:17:58 I'm hoping to do another draft later today, but as there are active topics of discussion, I've been waiting for a resolution to those. 14:18:02 #action everyone is welcome to comment on modularity PR#83, once the discussion will be over there - sgallagh will update requiest and notify FESCo 14:18:03 I'd also like to not leave the entire community out of this, but to bring in the discussion to devel 14:18:21 sgallagh: that's great news (re "on the same page"). 14:18:55 mhroncok, I'd like to give them some time to flesh things out before pushing it to devel@ 14:19:05 otherwise it's going to be hard to consolidate and iterate on feedback 14:19:08 zbyszek: I was specifically referring to the proposal of having FESCo vote to accept the policy draft, but I also do think that we're coming to a compromise we can be content with 14:19:16 ok, but once it is fleshed out, I'd like this to go trough devel and not just fesco tickets 14:19:28 mhroncok: that's a valid concern.. 14:19:36 mhroncok: Once it's fleshed out, I can submit it as a Self-Contained Change, if you like 14:19:42 though I am not sure if that will result into something meaningful :) 14:19:45 For ELN 14:19:53 sgallagh, I think that's acceptable 14:20:03 +1 14:20:04 sgallagh: I wasn't going to "require" this, but I would certainly appreciate that, thanks 14:20:04 sgallagh: yeah, that probably would be the best... so it follows our standard processes 14:20:04 we can also approve it essentially out of band since ELN rolls 14:20:09 sgallagh++ 14:20:09 mhroncok: Karma for sgallagh changed to 7 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:20:36 #action sgallagh to submit Self-Contained Change Proposal once ready 14:20:45 #topic #2407 Find a new meeting time slot 14:20:49 .fesco 2407 14:20:50 ignatenkobrain: Issue #2407: Find a new meeting time slot - fesco - Pagure.io - https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2407 14:20:53 ugh 14:20:54 * sgallagh looks around. 14:21:03 so I put this here to discuss again because of Council conflict 14:21:11 Here's one! ;-) 14:21:21 ugh 14:21:25 yes, please 14:21:30 I am also in the council meeting right now 14:21:30 Given all the trouble we had to locate this slot, I am disinclined to move it. 14:21:40 I realize this is inconvenient for folks attending both meetings 14:21:43 I can only really move this an hour earlier, and that's about it 14:21:59 an hour earlier is fine 14:22:02 and that's mildly inconvenient for me, but I can try to work with that 14:22:02 how likely is it to move the council one instead? 14:22:17 1 hour earlier is a killer for nirik IMHO 14:22:17 hour earlier or hour later is fine for me ftr 14:22:26 1 hour earlier is crazy early for nirik 14:22:29 yeah 14:22:29 yeah ^^ 14:22:34 ok, one hour later is fine 14:22:37 or even another day 14:22:49 This isn't all that helpful 14:22:49 I can't do one hour later, since it collides with $dayjob 14:22:50 I can't effectively be in two meetings concurrently 14:23:02 We did the WhenIsGood thing and this was all we had in common 14:23:06 the council meeting is only fortnightly correct ? 14:23:06 zbyszek: got a link handy with previous results? 14:23:17 dcantrell: I can rarely be effective in ONE meeting, so you're still ahead of me :) 14:23:18 https://whenisgood.net/f2hzskx/results/gbhh7ba 14:23:23 * nirik and cverna also have another meeting right after this (well, in 40min) 14:23:23 an hour earlier is 6am for me... which would be... sad. 14:23:35 nirik: just don't go to bed. problem solved 14:24:01 bcotton++ 14:24:01 ignatenkobrain: Karma for bcotton changed to 21 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:24:16 Son_Goku: mhroncok any chance you can do 5pm Wed? 14:24:22 ignatenkobrain: np 14:24:31 let me check, one sec 14:24:35 ignatenkobrain: 5pm UTC? 14:24:49 yeah, I can do 1pm EDT 14:24:50 I think whenisgood writes time in UTC, so yes 14:24:59 Only Neal and Miro replied "no" to that time 14:25:05 * sgallagh nods 14:25:05 I can't do 5 pm utc. Sorry. 14:25:06 ignatenkobrain: weird 14:25:20 ignatenkobrain: I can do that, sorry 14:25:22 zbyszek: You replied you could in the WhenIsGood 14:25:31 if it doesn't work it doesn't work, I was just hoping we could find another day maybe or something so I don't have two concurrent meetings 14:25:56 I can probably see if I can get a "skip" for the meeting overlapping with the 11am-12pm US/ET slot 14:26:00 the eariler it is the less coherent I will likely be. ;) 14:26:10 sgallagh: yeah, sorry, I didn't consider that I have something late evening. 14:26:11 * cverna proposes to cancel all the meetings :P 14:26:15 but as my daily standup at work is in there, that'd be hard :( 14:26:19 :D 14:26:38 but push comes to shove, I can probably do it 14:26:48 ok, what about to re-run whenisgood again and see? if we don't come up with new time that works for all of us, we will continue with this time. 14:26:51 bcotton: how likely is it the council meeting would move because of fesco? 14:26:53 dcantrell: send dcantrel to the other one. ;) 14:27:13 nirik: lool 14:27:14 .fire nirik cloning is illegal 14:27:14 adamw fires nirik cloning is illegal 14:27:24 mhroncok: we could certainly ask. it also has historically suffered from "this is the only time we could find that works for us" 14:27:40 I can do one hour later if it fits for everyone else 14:27:48 I'll need to do some begging and pleading though :o 14:27:59 or otherwise bow out partway through sometimes 14:28:29 well, an hour later cverna and I are in a team meeting... we can try and ask to move it, but it has a lot of people in it... 14:28:34 ugh 14:28:39 there's no winning, is there? 14:28:44 alas 14:28:48 time travel? 14:29:03 perhaps... 14:29:04 lol 14:29:23 but alas, I don't have a TARDIS 14:29:38 Thirteenth_Doctor: no? :) 14:29:47 hah 14:29:58 Would it help if we had alternating slots for even/odd weeks, I a way that everybody can at least attend every other meeting? 14:30:03 the Sixth, the Eighth, the Tenth, and the Eleventh were my favorites ;) 14:30:38 decathorpe, that's going to be murder for fedocal 14:30:58 the nice thing is that council meets every other week, so it's not always a conflict 14:31:16 Son_Goku: there can be two meetings defined there, np imho 14:31:35 bcotton: then we don't need a full clone of dcantrell so it is only half-illegal :) 14:31:38 FESCo could keep this slot but go to a fortnightly schedule 14:31:48 So the opposite week from Council 14:31:57 eck, I don't know... 14:32:01 It would also encourage us to handle things more often in the tickets 14:32:03 I like the weekly cadence 14:32:10 yeah, I think the weekly meeting is good. 14:32:15 i worry that would be too infrequent, particularly starting about now-ish in the schedule when change proposals start coming in more heavily 14:32:26 bcotton: Fair 14:32:32 yeah, there's big system wide changes happening almost every release now 14:32:43 and a lot of change proposals 14:32:56 not bad, but definitely a point for having these weekly :) 14:33:13 Proposal: Keep this time slot, run new whenisgood, if no other common match - ask council to reschedule their meeting to save dcantrell from cloning himself. 14:33:34 What about moving the meeting even later, i.e. 20:00 or 21:00 utc? 14:33:35 Igor Raits: +1 wfm 14:34:02 I excluded times after 10pm CEST, but if nothing else works... 14:34:24 zbyszek: wow. well, I could make it, but chances are I would be drunk :D 14:34:36 ignatenkobrain: I don't think we need to run another whenisgood. People can just edit the current one. 14:34:40 mhroncok: How is that different from the current slot? ;-) 14:34:48 I could make most, if not all of those times after 20:00 UTC (4pm EDT) 14:35:05 I'd have to check for sure, but my window is significantly more open after 4pm :) 14:35:21 * nirik is just fine with later. ;) 14:35:32 sgallagh: currently I tend to start drinking during the meeting or after ;) 14:36:13 mhroncok: I sympathize 14:36:14 thanks, everyone. I know finding a time is difficult 14:36:16 after 20:00 UTC is probably to late here 14:36:21 mhroncok: cheers! :) 14:36:54 * nirik looks for the link again 14:37:07 nirik: we are not discussion modularity now, so I'll pass :D 14:37:10 mhroncok, sympathize as well 14:37:32 if the meeting was 1 hour only I could probably do 19:00 UTC latest 14:37:53 I think we won't solve it here anyway :/ 14:38:11 technically the thing is that if the meeting is now, I can go do some evening things (like go have a beer with friends) later. if it is 20:00 UTC, I cannot. this is inconvenient, but not a hard blocker 14:38:11 I can do 3pm on Monday and Friday, but not Tuesday-Thursday 14:38:35 it would be helpful to have yes-no-if need to be options in whenisgood 14:38:40 doodle has this 14:38:47 * Son_Goku doesn't really want to do this again... 14:39:12 proposal: ... 14:39:24 we'll ask the council nicely to find another slot 14:39:25 https://framadate.org/ supports maybe 14:39:40 we'll followup once we know if that is possible. 14:39:43 could we ask council first before we go through this headache again? 14:40:08 mhroncok: +1 14:40:12 mhroncok: +1 14:40:18 mhroncok: +1 14:40:24 mhroncok: +1 14:40:39 bcotton, dcantrell: can either of you please ask the council? 14:40:46 i'll do it 14:40:49 bcotton++ 14:40:58 bcotton: thanks 14:41:25 #action bcotton to ask Council about moving their meeting to another time. 14:41:28 #topic Next week's chair 14:41:48 I can do it 14:41:57 cverna++ 14:41:57 mhroncok: Karma for cverna changed to 12 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:42:12 #action cverna will chair next meeting 14:42:20 #topic Open Floor 14:42:20 do we have the script somewhere ? 14:42:53 so that I can just copy paste stuff :P 14:43:07 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FESCo_meeting_process 14:43:23 cool thanks 14:43:50 anything for open floor? :) 14:43:57 * sgallagh has nothing today 14:44:03 * Son_Goku has nothing right now 14:44:22 nothing here 14:44:25 I could give a quick dc move update if folks like? 14:44:36 nirik: please :) 14:44:50 nirik: :D 14:45:42 nirik: good vibes only 14:46:22 we moved to the new dc a few weeks ago now, all our old stuff from the old dc was shipped and has arrived in the new dc and been racked and cabled. We are now slowly adding capacity and things back. Builders first, then we will be adding redundency in places we didn't have it, then re-add non esential services back... and hopefully in by the end of july we will be all finally done with this thing. ;) 14:46:44 \o/ 14:46:48 nirik, any idea when Communishift will be back? 14:46:58 and then nirik and smooge will sleep for a month 14:47:01 nirik: great news 14:47:25 bcotton, and smooge can stop reaching for the "medicine" cabinet :) 14:47:26 Son_Goku: not sure still... but after this week we can get some attention back on it from networking and dc folks and try and move it forward. 14:47:40 nirik: do you know if builds are faster nowadays because less people / services use koji or because you've updated everything and such? 14:48:45 ignatenkobrain: I think it's a combo... new DC we are using 10G networking in a lot of places, the new koji hubs are fedora 32, the database is now rhel8 / postgresql 12.2, builders are in faster/newer hardware (x86 anyhow)... 14:49:01 oh, and we have storage we aren't sharing with anyone, so that might be faster too. 14:49:19 now if I could just get kojira to behave. ;( 14:50:05 nirik: ah, still slow 🙂 in our company we have 25G bond inside DC on servers. 14:50:15 nirik: kojira is PITA 14:50:17 anyhow, great job :) 14:50:39 I have my sympathies with nirik and smooge... been there, done that, don't want the t-shirt 14:50:57 nirik: thank you 14:51:10 ignatenkobrain, kojira needs a ton of work... maybe someday 14:51:24 nirik, thanks for the awesome work you do on this :) 14:51:31 so if nothing else, I'll close this in 30 seconds :) 14:52:02 ignatenkobrain++ 14:52:09 ignatenkobrain++ 14:52:09 Conan_Kudo: Karma for ignatenkobrain changed to 15 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 14:52:11 bye 14:52:16 thanks, it's a group effort... smooge especially deserves a ton of credit. ;) 14:52:17 #endmeeting
