14:00:52 \o 14:01:03 <_gryf> hi 14:01:07 \o 14:01:38 * carl_baldwin lurks 14:02:11 carl_baldwin, _gryf welcome to some new names 14:02:34 * n0ano notes that lurkers are welcome although they could get assigned tasks :-) 14:02:46 <_gryf> oh my :) 14:03:04 n0ano doesn't mess around 14:03:07 let's get started 14:03:15 #topic specs & BPs 14:04:01 so... 14:04:01 Music and mythology, Einstein and astrology 14:04:01 It all started with the big bang! 14:04:07 I think we're in relatively good shape on BPs, jay's resource providers is the only open one and he's asked for an exception on it, hopefully that will be OK 14:04:20 by that ^, I meant that jaypipes began to split resource-providers 14:04:51 bauzas, tnx for the explaination, you lost me completely for a minute :-) 14:05:03 yeah, I think he'll get it 14:05:13 does anyone else have any BPs they are concerned about? 14:06:18 n0ano: tribute to The Big Bang Theory TV show 14:06:22 only, let's go to a different topic (I meant to add this to the agenda and got confused at midnight) 14:06:30 #topic patches 14:06:41 o/ 14:06:48 things are going pacefully for the req-spec BP 14:06:51 are there any patches people have concerns about that we need to discuss 14:07:10 bauzas, yeah, now it's time to worry about implementations 14:07:36 I have some soft-affinity patches for ServerGroups that I'm reviewing closely because they depend from the spec-obj BP 14:08:13 bauzas, do you need help with reviews or is that going OK for now? 14:08:37 I'm trying to spin up my review frequency, but I'm still a bit too ignorant to be really good. 14:09:05 cdent, not to worry, we learn by doing here so don't be intimidated 14:09:49 * cdent promises to flail wildly 14:10:07 cdent, WFM :-) 14:10:23 n0ano: well, reviews are always good :) 14:10:39 cdent: so you had other stuff for us to review ? 14:10:44 in terms of doc ? 14:11:10 bauzas: not written yet. 14:11:18 cdent: ack, no worries, take your time 14:11:55 OK, not hearing any problems with patches (that'll probably change with time) let's move on 14:11:59 #topic bugs 14:12:08 I actually have some good news here 14:12:46 we have a team in San Antonio that is looking into bugs and I've started the process to get them to look at scheduler bugs 14:12:57 we should be getting some activity on this issue soon 14:13:07 * markus_z jumps with joy 14:13:34 won't solve them all but I'm hoping to make a big dent in the list 14:13:58 n0ano: being in SA, I can be a contact with no TZ issues 14:14:03 n0ano: okay, provided they don't all jump on saying "eh, the scheduler is racy !" 14:14:10 n0ano: FWIW, I wrote down what I know about the process at http://markuszoeller.github.io/posts/openstack-bugs/ 14:14:38 markus_z, excellent, I'll make sure that gets forwarded on 14:15:18 bauzas, hopefully we'll spread the effort around, races are not the only issue 14:15:51 n0ano: I could even troll by saying that the scheduler isn't racy, but that's maybe a bit harsh :D 14:16:26 #info: 5 scheduler related bugs open at https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bugs?field.tag=scheduler&field.status%3Alist=NEW 14:16:29 well, it's not that the scheduler isn't racy, it's rather that *it is by design* :D 14:16:41 bauzas, I just saw the email about this today and haven't had a chance to read it yet, we can maybe discuss that at the next meeting 14:17:05 that's a very long story, not sure we can be that interested 14:17:08 :) 14:18:22 bauzas: at some point I'd like to hear that history 14:18:40 cdent: take 3 shots of coffee first :) 14:18:51 OK, hope to see progress on bugs but let's move on 14:18:56 #topic opens 14:19:09 cdent: I'm not sure you do. :) 14:19:15 I have one - future meetings with the holidays 14:19:22 * cdent loves to know all the goss 14:19:27 n0ano: cancel with joy ? 14:19:33 cancel++ 14:19:47 btw. about the midcycle 14:20:00 bauzas: 3 shots? that's well under par 14:20:10 do we know who can't attend it, and who would like to still voice ? 14:20:24 bauzas, hold off on that for a second 14:20:43 cancel seems to be a winner, shall we cancel the next two and start up again on 1/4? 14:20:54 +2 14:21:01 for that proposal 14:21:16 +1 from me 14:21:21 but I'm French, so I guess I shouldn't be representative about vacations 14:21:39 bauzas, it's not summer, you're good :-) 14:21:53 * cdent laughs 14:22:05 n0ano: well, France is still freezed by those dates, so you know... 14:22:13 that - and May 14:22:14 +1 on return on the 4th 14:22:46 I've got two +1s and a +2, that means we merge it :-) Meet again on 1/4/16 14:23:01 back to mid-cycle 14:23:04 n0ano: merge by only +2, horrible ! 14:23:12 by only *one 14:23:28 bauzas, I'm a little loose, what can I say 14:23:34 back to the mid-cycle 14:23:54 n0ano: so, just wanted to know who can't attend 14:23:57 I'ts in Britain so I'm not even sure I'll make it this time, anybody else here know their plans 14:24:06 I'll be there 14:24:12 edleafe: ? 14:24:12 Not me 14:24:19 ack 14:24:40 I can report that jay*pipes and timofei will be there 14:24:43 ok 14:25:18 cdent, that's good so we'll have mostly a quorum for the scheduler 14:25:18 n0ano: edleafe: so I don't know if it's planned to be hangouted yet, but I'd propose you to ask for it :) 14:25:57 bauzas, yeah, I'll make sure that's at least considered 14:26:01 bauzas: hmmm... it'll start at 3am my time 14:26:07 oh right 14:26:16 so save the good stuff for the afternoon :) 14:26:23 edleafe: I could ask to have the scheduler decisions by the afternoons 14:26:23 edleafe, +1 14:26:50 edleafe: of course, this is a meetup style, but yeah I guess you got my idea 14:26:52 bauzas: that would work 14:27:39 anything else for today? 14:27:41 well, provided I arrive safe in Bristol, given I should drive by lefy 14:27:41 left 14:27:51 bauzas: take train! 14:28:26 bauzas, driving left on the roads is fine, parking lots on the other hand will kill you :-) 14:28:37 * cdent still struggles with the parking lots 14:29:22 cdent: walking on January in Bristol seems a bad idea :) 14:29:37 OK, I'm hearing crickets (and idle chatter :-) so let's close 14:29:41 ++ 14:29:46 * cdent nods 14:29:54 tnx everyone, have a great holiday and we'll meet again next year on 1/4 14:30:04 #endmeeting
