fungiianychoi: diablo_rojo: i think we've had an out of memory event kill the queue manager for the openstack mailing lists again, i'm digging into it now but deliveries should occur shortly00:00
fungiokay, deliveries should be back on track again, your messages ought to start arriving momentarily00:05
fungisorry for the hiccup00:05
ianychoifungi, no worries :) Thank you for making mailing list alive :)00:24
fungihappy to help00:25
fungioops, looks like tobias sent a tc nomination to the ml but not to the elections repo00:30
fungialso i'm reaching out to the www.openstack.org admins about tim burke's profile problem00:31
diablo_rojoThanks fungi!00:56
diablo_rojofungi, I told him earlier to ping Jimmy.00:56
diablo_rojoNot sure if he did or was too busy00:56
fungicool00:56
fungijimmy said both timburke and redrobot's foundation memberships are lapsed, so that explains why they're not passing the individual member check00:57
diablo_rojoOoohhhhhh that makes sense. Naughty that they didn't vote in the board elections.00:57

ianychoidiablo_rojo, andymccr, tonyb[m]: can I ask your thought on a late TC candidacy: https://review.opendev.org/#/c/716490/ ? The candidate shared a candidacy through ML but submitted a patch late. Can we understand this + a situation that there were bugs on mailing lists (the mail was actually shown after the nomination period finished due to infra bug IMO)?13:12
ianychoiFor other PTL nominations, I think we can tell that TC is discussing leaderless projects by referring also an additional URL: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/victoria-leaderless .13:13
ianychoi(Note: any opinion from online members are welcome!)13:14
fungiwhy would mailing list delays result in gerrit submission delays?14:01

tonyb[m]My feeling is "nope".  I don't see anything to incline me to accept the late nomination19:28
tonyb[m]Gerrit is the "source of truth" so anything that happens with the mailing list is irrelevant.19:29
tonyb[m]And the candidate had a week to decide to run19:29
openstackgerritDouglas Mendizábal proposed openstack/election master: Adding Douglas Mendizábal candidacy for Barbican  https://review.opendev.org/71631620:05
diablo_rojoI agree that he had plenty of time to submit his candidacy before the deadline..so I dont think we really should grant him any extra leeway..20:07
diablo_rojoI guess we go and -2 all the open candidacies and let the TC know that there will be at least 3 PTLs they can just appoint? (Barbican, Swift, and Rally)?20:12
tonyb[m]Sounds like a plan20:14
tonyb[m]Thanks for doing that :-P20:14
* tonyb[m] ducks and runs20:14
funginot an election official this time, but my two cents... the late tc nomination was declared publicly within the required timeframe (though unfortunately not in the correct venue), so seems on the surface that it shouldn't hurt anything to make an exception in this case, but i worry that doing so would set a questionable precedent for future elections20:15
fungii think it's good to stick to clear process and defined timelines, even if that means sometimes a good candidate gets left out of the running. it's still useful input into discussions our community can have *after* the election about careful and measured adjustments to current documented process20:17
diablo_rojo...I already -2ed Tobias's nomination..20:19
diablo_rojoI feel like if their nomination isn't in gerrit in time.. they aren't a candidate.. but maybe thats too harsh?20:19
diablo_rojoI am happy to go -2 the others..20:20
fungii think it's harsh, but necessary20:25
fungiif the documented process isn't clear then the candidate can reach out to election officials before the deadline to get clarification20:26
fungiand there's always another tc election just around the corner20:28
diablo_rojoYeah. I feel like if he gave us a heads up about his patch being late I would be more inclined to accept it?20:30
diablo_rojoI dunno.20:30
fungiwell, or asked for help getting it pushed into gerrit by the deadline20:32
diablo_rojofungi, yeah that too20:32
ianychoifungi, agree with keeping with clear process. When I shared my opinion, I started to think about how me have worked better and try to think how some situations would be prevented in the next cycle.22:32
