gmannttx: not yet, last we discussed was to hear back from packaging-RPM team after their meeting. and dirk has added the comments on etherpad.13:31
cloudnullo/13:32
ttxwe don't need nearly as much accountability from a low-level packaging team than from a IaaS core component, so it seems they could experiment with PTL-less13:33
ttxor really, a SIG since all they produce is tooling to help package, rather than packaging13:35
ttxIt's really where the tension comes from: we ask accountability from them that is not justified by what they produce13:37
ttxproject team / PTL model is based on the accountability we need for teams producing "openstack": release liaison, security liaison...13:38
ttxBut RPM-Packaging does not really need a release liaison or a security liaison13:39
ttxso they would be better off as a SIG, imho. We sould stop bothering them with useless elections13:39
ttx*would13:40
evrardjpsorry I didn't report on this13:45
evrardjpyeah they wish to try PTL-less13:45
evrardjpthey don't see a point of moving to a SIG yet, and I thought it would be nice to really test the ptl less story13:46
evrardjpif not we can move them to sig13:46
ttxevrardjp: could they be interested in SIG instead? PTL-less still requires things from them that do not really make sense in their case, like a security liaison13:46
ttxso I feel like it's not the best example to experiment with13:46
evrardjpthey just don't want any change in their workflows13:46
evrardjp"who is gonna be chair of the sig then?"13:46
ttxOK... going to SIG would mean direct tagging instead of going through the releases repo13:46
ttxevrardjp: they can list all the people who do work as co-chairs13:47
ttxCo-chairs are just names that someone interested in joining the group can contact13:47
evrardjpas many of those are _independant deliverables, would that be a problem for releasing?13:47
ttxevrardjp: direct tagging? not really.13:48
evrardjpno I mean, continue using the releases repo13:48
evrardjpand not change practices13:48
evrardjpI didn't realise this would be a problem13:48
ttxWe can't maintain exceptions at every corner... openstack/releases is for project teams where we have accountability (release liaisons)13:49
ttxIf a team can't give us a head to contact, we should not intermediate13:49
evrardjpI think they don't mind having the people right now set up as release liaison13:49
evrardjpthat's why I thought PTL-less was maybe a good idea13:50
evrardjpthey still care about delivery of those13:50
ttxOK ptl-less could probably work for them. My only objection to it is that we can't really test-drive the concept with a corner case (like PTL-less requires security liaison, and RPm-packaging really does not need one)13:51
ttxso it's not a great way to evaluate the idea13:51
*** openstackstatus has quit IRC13:53
evrardjpwhat's the better alternative? Assign a PTL that doesn't have time to answer, or move to a SIG and annoy those regular contributors due to a change of practices?13:53
evrardjpit's a loose-loose situation13:53
ttxagree. I just wish we had tried ptl-less on a more representative guinea pig first13:54
*** openstackstatus has joined #openstack-tc13:54
*** ChanServ sets mode: +v openstackstatus13:54
ttxare they really fine designating a release liaison and a security liaison ?13:55
evrardjpagain, the TC can still assign someone PTL, if we really don't want that first guinea pig to be that project13:55
evrardjpI can ask for the security liaison13:55
evrardjpbut I am sure they don't mind/have an interest in that13:55
ttxI mean, I understand that the PTL position can be politically overwhelming in a project like Cinder13:56
evrardjpthey might even have interest in that*13:56
evrardjpit's not that13:56
ttxI'm not sure how release liaison ≠ PTL for RPM-packaging13:56
evrardjpthey aren't just sure how involvment will turn out in the future. In the times of uncertainty, nobody steps up13:56
evrardjpif I understood correctly13:57
ttxAh, so it's the "can't sign up for next 6 months" thing13:57
ttxptl-less still requires someone to sign up for being release liaison though13:57
evrardjpyes, but that's more malleable13:58
ttxagain, not sure why. PTL can be malleable. In both cases it's a lien in a file13:58
ttxBut I can see how that is not how people see it13:58
evrardjpI don't disagree.13:58
evrardjpcorrect13:58
evrardjpbecause there is less red-tape within releases oneliners than tc oneliners :p13:59
ttxAnyway, y'all's call :)13:59
ttxWe just can't keep it with APPOINTMENT NEEDED as it's braeking all scripts that expect to have a PTL in there13:59
evrardjpagreed14:12
gmannyeah, i agree on ptl-less still need people taking responsibility as liaison so if no one want their name as PTL in current situation and SIF chair then PTl-less will be still same isuse14:12
gmannissue14:12
evrardjpthere wasn't a meeting for a while, but I have asked to have a meeting to finally settle this14:12
gmannbut is SIG with deliverable ok for us ?14:13
evrardjpwe would not deal with releasing14:25
evrardjpif SIG, they will have to do everything with the tagging/pushing to pypi14:26
evrardjpI don't think they have a lot of deliverables to push though,  and I am not even sure they are using PyPI in their workflows14:27
evrardjp(just repos)14:27
evrardjpbut I think this would be a problem for them if they don't appear for releases, so I think SIG will not be what they aim toward.14:27
fungitheir repositories wouldn't technically be deliverables if they were a sig14:31
*** tkajinam has quit IRC14:37
fungithey have two branchless utilities (pymod2pkg and renderspec) which tag non-cycle-aligned releases, one catch-all repository (rpm-packaging-tools) for a status script which has neither tags nor cycle branches, and one repository with per-cycle rpm specfiles (rpm-packaging) which has branches but no releases tagged14:38
fungiso i doubt they're really getting any benefit from the coordinated release automation14:39
mnasereh15:11
mnaserif they don't want to be a SIG15:11
mnaseryet no one wants to be a PTL15:11
mnaserwe're sitting in a bit of a checkmate15:11
mnasers/check/stale/15:11
mnaserimho, we should create a sig with all current cores.  those not interested being on it can remove their names.15:12
mnaserrpm-packaging is not openstack and doesn't have much to do with openstack imho15:12
