The timezone is queried from FAS. 17:07:59 .localtime dcantrell 17:08:00 dcantrell: The current local time of "dcantrell" is: "13:07" (timezone: US/Eastern) 17:08:19 I think zbyszek, defolos, decathorpe and me are all CEST 17:08:35 yup 17:08:36 indeed 17:08:44 nirik is deep deep west and the rest is eastern 17:08:46 and 8 PM is really late for meetings 17:08:48 mhroncok: But zbyszek seems to be working in US/Eastern time :P 17:08:54 technically bcotton also is not eastern 17:08:57 FWIW, I just opened up my availability to "before I usually wake up", if that helps at all. 17:08:59 (Looks like it doesn't) 17:09:08 yeah, I skew things sadly. ;( PDT 17:09:25 i'm not? 17:09:25 he is eastern 17:09:28 .localtime bcotton 17:09:29 Eighth_Doctor: The current local time of "bcotton" is: "13:09" (timezone: America/Indiana/Indianapolis) 17:09:34 he lives in Indiana, which is in EDT 17:09:39 oh, ok 17:09:46 EDT is much wider than makes any rational sense 17:09:50 * bcotton exists in all times 17:09:58 I mean I can do 13UTC monday, but thats 6am. ;( and Eighth_Doctor and zbyszek are not available then either. 17:10:02 sgallagh: don't you dare suggest taking away my 930pm sunsets! 17:10:03 yes, Indiana really should be in Central Time, but man... 17:10:06 mhroncok: bcotton needs to drive couple of hours west and it will change his TZ ;) 17:10:08 right, I remember that bcotton is in Indiana, but I had no idea it is Eastern 17:10:20 the state legislature went full stupid on that twenty years ago 17:10:20 (and is why parts of New England are considering shifting to Atlantic Time instead) 17:10:25 yup, that and getting out of DST 17:10:35 anyway I'll take that pizza from defolos and we can try 1900 UTC 17:10:43 Indiana is... special 17:10:50 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_in_Indiana 17:10:57 Indiana really got screwed on US time zones 17:11:06 mhroncok: Thank you for that. Sorry it's so late in Europe. 17:11:13 * Eighth_Doctor used to live in Indiana when it was worse 17:11:23 dcantrell: isn't Indiana at least mostly on ET now? it used to be worse 17:11:23 mhroncok: I can promise to buy you a beer for your pizza next time I see you in person. ;) 17:11:27 I wonder if we should consider alternating FESCo meetings? 17:11:38 I remember when it was EST/EDT, EST only, and CST/CDT 17:11:41 I didn't learn about the concept of Daylight Saving Time until I moved to Mississippi in 2004 :) 17:11:46 One week that's US-friendly, one week that's EU-friendly? 17:11:50 that sounds like a viable option 17:11:51 sgallagh[m]: might help some, but also adds confusion 17:11:58 Conan Kudo: so you moved *south* and encountered daylight saving ;) 17:12:03 Michel Alexandre Salim: Yup! 17:12:03 michel: I think so? The main issue is their major metro areas border other states and so the effective time zones used follow those border cities and then Indiana gets messed up 17:12:12 Might be better for participation from other contributors too 17:12:37 dcantrell: yeah, South Bend etc follows Chicago and the eastern parts (forgot which metro) follows Ohio I guess 17:12:44 well if we alter and half of os never shows up on the alternate one, it's not any good :/ 17:12:46 well settle the terms off meeting 17:12:49 I missed not having daylight saving :) 17:12:54 aside from Monday and Tuesday, I can be up as early as 7am EDT if need be 17:13:05 As Chair, I'm going to ask that we terminate the side-topic of timezones 17:13:05 I used to live in Hawaii which does not have Daylight Saving Time. However that didn't matter for work meetings. Also, Zimbra didn't handle the HAST zone correctly (nor did Google), both automatically changed clocks. I filed a bug with Zimbra and they said "meh" 17:13:18 sgallagh[m]: you're saying we don't have time for this kind of talk? 17:13:43 .fire dcantrell bad puns are where I draw the line. 17:13:43 adamw fires dcantrell bad puns are where I draw the line. 17:13:47 🤦‍♂️ 17:13:48 lets try monday at 19 and revisit if unworkable for some reason? 17:13:57 .hire dcantrell 17:13:57 adamw hires dcantrell 17:14:06 michel++ thank you 17:14:06 dcantrell: Karma for michel changed to 1 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 17:14:09 worksforme 17:14:10 agreed 17:14:14 OK, thank you for your sacrifice, mhroncok (and other EU folks) 17:14:14 wfm 17:14:16 +1 for me 17:14:29 sgallagh[m]: you just you had that pun first :) 17:14:30 maybe my meeting slots will free up once the pandemic is over 17:14:39 #agreed FESCo meetings will occur at 1900 UTC beginning June 21st 17:14:44 mhroncok++ for taking one for the team 17:14:44 defolos: Karma for churchyard changed to 5 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 17:14:49 most of my inflexibility comes from pandemic-era meeting slots 17:14:52 dcantrell: You are... not wrong. 17:14:54 mhroncok++ thank you for your service 17:15:01 mhroncok++ 17:15:12 Fabio Valentini (decathorpe): your availability is legendary 17:15:12 OK, let's move along 17:15:14 Yeah, many thanks 17:15:18 mhroncok++ 17:15:18 Conan_Kudo: Karma for churchyard changed to 6 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 17:15:22 mhroncok++ sorry but thanks :) 17:15:22 mboddu: Karma for churchyard changed to 7 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 17:15:22 #topic #2617 F35 Change: Make btrfs the default file system for Fedora Cloud 17:15:22 .fesco 2617 17:15:25 sgallagh[m]: Issue #2617: F35 Change: Make btrfs the default file system for Fedora Cloud - fesco - Pagure.io - https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2617 17:15:39 defolos: summer holidays are coming up ;) 17:16:10 I think the Cloud WG meeting where this is being discussed is happening today? 17:16:16 I think the recent comment makes it good for me 17:16:20 nope 17:16:21 Conan Kudo: Would you mind summarizing the updates from this last week? 17:16:26 are there any reasons why grub2-mount wouldn't work for the RHEL case? 17:16:39 sgallagh: sure, I suppose 17:16:43 there was a bit more talk on the list, but not much really. 17:17:05 https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2617#comment-737963 has the most recent information and is not long 17:17:05 defolos: grub2-mount should work, as long as it gets enabled in the RHEL build 17:17:08 so dcavalca and I deliberated on options for RHEL to read Fedora images, and we added those to the change page 17:17:10 I put up a PR to that end 17:17:22 additionally, dcavalca made the libguestfs container which can't build because borked OpenShift Build Service 17:17:59 and finally, dcavalca made PRs to backport zstd btrfs enablement to rhel8.5 grub and enable grub2-mount in el8 grub 17:18:03 so we have at least fuse-based read support from grub code 17:18:03 I'd just like to note again that updating things right before the meeting (I know, there's much more incentive to do that then) means many of us haven't read and digested those things. :( 17:18:03 dcavalca, Eighth_Doctor: thanks, this helps a lot. 17:18:09 OK, I hadn't seen that last update, but indeed that makes me much more comfortable 17:18:31 the libguestfs container will enable read-write of Fedora Cloud images with btrfs on RHEL 17:18:32 FWIW, I'm ready to vote. 17:18:51 because the bundled Fedora kernel and btrfs-progs in the bundled appliance 17:19:04 * defolos is as well 17:19:16 libguestfs boots a tiny VM to mediate fs access between host and guest 17:19:16 Proposal: FESCo accepts the "Cloud Images on btrfs". 17:19:19 so that's how that works 17:19:23 err, patch 17:19:24 sgallagh: +1 17:19:30 +1 17:19:35 +1 17:19:35 * Proposal: FESCo accepts the "Cloud Images on btrfs" Change for F35. 17:19:36 +1 17:19:42 +1 17:19:50 +1 17:19:54 +1 17:20:04 0 17:20:20 weak +1 I guess. if it breaks lots of things we can always revert. 17:20:31 #agreed FESCo accepts the "Cloud Images on btrfs" Change for F35.
