Other stuff got in the way. 12:11:06 Aiming for having it working by Gluster Summit 12:11:29 #action JustinClift to have basic forge v2 operational by Gluster Summit 12:11:40 "hagarth to release 3.7.0beta1 this week" 12:11:42 Done 12:11:50 "raghu to create new 3.6.4 tracker bug today" 12:12:06 raghu: ? 12:12:12 its done 12:12:19 I see a BZ 1216965 12:12:25 yeah.

Bug #1219166 does not exist 12:13:21 raghu, what is that other one then? 12:13:28 They both exist for me? 12:13:40 atinmu: there were 2 bugs? let me check 12:13:57 Yeah. And both seem the same. 12:13:59 raghu, I could see two of them 12:14:12 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1216965 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1216966 12:14:34 Sounds like the BZ system may have double submitted or something 12:14:37 JustinClift: thats not 1219166... 12:14:38 atinmu: oops. Yeah. I saw it too. I dont remember creating 2 bugs and still have no idea how 2 bugs were created 12:15:00 raghu: please pick one, and set Alias=glusterfs-3.6.4 in it :) 12:15:14 ndevos: yeah. sure. 12:15:21 ndevos: You're confusing me? 12:15:48 Oh yeah, it's not 12:16:00 JustinClift: no, I hope not - there are 3 bzs posted, and one of them does not exist 12:16:20 They two I posted do exist. I cut in posted them from the loaded urls. ;) 12:16:26 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=glusterfs-3.6.4 should be the one :) 12:16:31 Good point 12:16:45 .. and that errors out ;) 12:16:54 raghu: I'm marking this "in progress" for now. 12:17:08 and that link will work once raghu has set the alias in the right bug 12:17:13 #action raghu to create new 3.6.4 tracker bug today 12:17:19 JustinClift: sure. 12:17:27 "raghu to release 3.6.4beta1 by the end of next week" 12:18:04 *cough* 12:18:45 JustinClift: I have not done beta1 yet. Will do it next week 12:18:49 k 12:18:54 raghu, I want one of my patch to go in for 3.6.4, I will let you know the details 12:19:07 atinmu: add it to the tracker :D 12:19:08 atinmu: sure. 12:19:16 #action raghu to release 3.6.4beta1 next week 12:19:30 ndevos, sure 12:19:32 "ndevos to do release announcement for 3.5.4beta1 when the packages are ready" 12:19:57 still pending on the readiness of the packages 12:20:06 Cool 12:20:12 #action ndevos to do release announcement for 3.5.4beta1 when the packages are ready 12:20:19 there is some testing to do, I did not find the time for that yet 12:20:28 "JustinClift to email gluster-users/devel/board with proposal for alternating meeting times" 12:20:42 Done: https://www.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-devel/2015-April/044635.html 12:20:52 results? 12:21:38 We need to finish that discussion up though, as we only seemed to get one person interested (Joe Julian), and he didn't respond to whether he'd be the first chair or not 12:22:04 #action JustinClif to prod the alternate weekly meeting times discussion back to life 12:22:13 gah. Name typo 12:22:23 #action JustinClift to prod the alternate weekly meeting times discussion back to life 12:22:34 #topic GlusterFS 3.7 12:22:56 Status? 12:23:06 We have the first beta tarball done... 12:23:21 Guessing we're waiting for packages so we can announce it wider? 12:24:03 * ndevos guesses the same 12:24:44 indeed 12:24:56 Anyone know when RPM's are likely to be available? 12:25:17 maybe hchiramm is looking into that? 12:25:28 #action JustinClift to reach out to likely testers when 3.7.0beta1 RPMs are available 12:26:10 Lala is usually the one who builds, hchirram then puts them on d.g.o. 12:26:36 k, well I'm reasonably sure it won't be far off 12:26:37 Moving on 12:26:56 #topic GlusterFS 3.6 12:27:03 But lala doesn't work for gluster any more. We need to line up a replacement. He and hchirram have someone in mind. They just need to bring him up to speed 12:27:11 I have made 3.6.3 and have announced it as well. Planning to make a beta1 of 3.6.4 next week. 12:27:19 Awesome. :) 12:27:54 #topic GlusterFS 3.5 12:28:16 3.5.4beta1 is almost available :) 12:28:42 packages need some testing, other than that, it should be ready 12:29:03 Cool. 12:29:10 3.5.4 will be included in Fedora 20+21 12:29:20 once it is out of beta, of course 12:29:21 ndevos: So, release eta for the packages? 12:29:46 for non-beta? not before the end of next week 12:30:07 Ahhh, I man for the beta 12:30:29 The 3.5.4beta1 you mention is almost available ;) 12:30:38 maybe this week, or during the weekend or so 12:30:46 Cool 12:30:55 lets say "the beginning of next week" ? 12:31:16 Cool. 12:31:39 #topic GlusterFS 4.0 12:31:58 Hmmm, jdarcy seems to have dropped off IRC 12:32:12 Anyone else know? 12:32:32 JustinClift: jdarcy will post an update to the list 12:32:47 (have the benefit of sitting next to jdarcy IRL atm) :) 12:32:59 :) 12:33:15 #action jdarcy will post a GlusterFS 4.0 update to the list(s) 12:33:36 #topic Open Floor 12:33:37 "vdsm-3.6 and glusterfs-3.7" 12:33:43 yup 12:34:08 "vdsm team needs (wants) 3.7 sooner rather than later; should we put 3.7.0beta1 in rawhide now?" 12:34:14 That sounds like "yes" 12:34:26 historically I've been pretty agressive about pushing new versions into Fedora 12:34:35 Unless the work involved doing it now would distract us or hurt us in some way? 12:34:51 But Niels and I have been leaning towards a more conservative posture lately 12:35:12 there is still quite some time for Fedora 23 to get ready, I assume we have 3.7.0 GA by then 12:35:19 JustinClift: +1 to rawhide 12:35:42 is that +1 to the beta in rawhide? 12:35:49 You guys sounds like you know the tradeoffs better than anyone else. What do you reckon? 12:35:58 kkeithley: yes 12:35:58 yes, a +1 from me, it's beta, not alpha 12:36:23 okay, nobody seems to be opposed 12:36:35 "Make it so Scotty" :) 12:36:58 k, anyone else have stuff for the open floor? 12:37:00 and F22? 12:37:08 no, not F22, that is too late 12:37:18 I canna do that Captain! 12:37:47 Sounds like no to F22 and yeah to rawhide 12:37:50 well, it can be done... but 12:37:50 Workable? 12:38:24 You'll be breaking the hearts and souls of the vdsm folks. But I'm sure they'll live. ;-) 12:38:47 the vdsm people can use the community packages for older releases if they really want to :) 12:38:51 just because you can do a thing, doesn't mean you should. ;-) 12:39:06 :) 12:39:12 k, that sounds decided then 12:39:14 oh, and there are still some packaging changes that need to get done in 3.7, maybe wait for those? 12:39:38 such as? 12:39:59 I have all the upstream changes to date in the dist-git spec 12:40:00 the almost empty python-gluster package, and some splitting of glusterfs-api dependencies 12:40:15 any more changes will get merged in 12:40:30 well, and the correct placement of new xlators, some of them are -server only, others should be client-side 12:40:49 yeah, when they happen, and there's a beta2 or GA release those changes will be added to the dist-git spec 12:41:00 s/yeah/agreed/ 12:41:01 * ndevos shrugs 12:41:38 +1 to happy vdsm folks, and we push other changes later :) 12:41:47 unless we want to add patches just for the beta, which I'm kinda not inclined to do. It's a lot of work that'll just be thrown away in a week 12:42:03 no, we dont want to do that 12:42:10 k, anyone else have other stuff for the open floor? 12:42:22 http://glusternew-tigert.rhcloud.com/ 12:42:29 some content would be appreciated :) 12:42:45 but theres a start for a simplified content reboot 12:43:05 Interesting. The top menu bar is nifty 12:43:26 tigert: Want to announce it to the mailing lists so people can take a look? 12:43:33 yeah I can 12:43:41 tigert: the logo will be in that design somewhere, right? :) 12:43:51 I would really want some input on the "what is gluster and what do we want to say to the world" part :) 12:44:04 * spot is all for minimal, but we need branding 12:44:04 spot: yes 12:44:31 hey, we have a http://planet.gluster.org/ ? 12:44:34 oh, so actually, the vdsm folks can't use older releases. They want Fedora secondary arches like ppc64, which we don't build for d.g.o 12:44:36 we do 12:44:37 tigert: possibly put some lorem ipsum in there before emailing it out 12:44:53 planet.gluster.org has some issues keeping up to date but I am working with misc to get that fixed 12:45:18 Guys, discuss this on list 12:45:53 #action tigert to announce new Gluster website layout demo to the mailing lists 12:46:08 oh, professional support does not list Red Hat Gluster Storage? 12:46:11 #action spot to bring up the Branding? question for it in response 12:46:19 spot: I rather try to copywrite something real, easier to say "NOO THAT IS WRONG, IT SHOULD BE [ correct content ]" <- handy cut and paste snippet 12:46:19 ndevos: I've pointed that out before too 12:46:31 so I can get the correct content 12:46:46 tigert: sure, but in this case, where there is nothing, I'd rather see how it would flow 12:46:59 ndevos: yeah RH needs to be added there 12:47:12 kkeithley: bring up the secondary arches on list maybe? See if we can figure out a solution... 12:47:16 spot: the design will be awesome anyway, its just layout 12:47:19 * spot will stop talking here and discuss on list as requested. :) 12:47:21 writing the content is the harder part for me 12:47:24 #endmeeting
