20:06:51 ;) 20:07:24 yes, if you tell about the vacation 20:07:48 ya 20:07:49 :) 20:08:29 100% completed 20:08:31 lol 20:08:37 +2 20:09:13 #topic reviews-for-0.2 20:09:13 now we see who's working) 20:09:24 lol 20:09:48 so afaik, akarpinska-home has the bulk of reviews, around the retry controller work 20:09:57 seems like thats almost all ready to go 20:10:42 iv_m? 20:10:42 and then other various small cleanup ones that would be good also, and iv_m_ work on the URI adjustments 20:10:53 ya, one last loooong look from me left, and i hope i will not find anything wrong 20:11:17 k, akarpinska-home are u ok with that for 0.2, or do u want to do any other further stuff? 20:11:54 I'm ok 20:11:59 docs left 20:12:33 k 20:12:38 sounds great 20:13:07 anything else i am missing, stans work would be great, but doesn't seem critical (and he's working on it also) 20:14:12 he found problems with some transfers 20:14:33 akarpinska-home those are fixed in the cleanup reviews? 20:14:43 *if u know 20:14:43 no 20:15:25 hmmm, do u recall what the transfer problem was? 20:16:02 I don't know, he told he was working on it 20:16:39 kk 20:16:39 np 20:16:41 thats fine 20:16:47 he tested different protocols that kombu supports 20:17:04 some of them don't work 20:17:20 *for some of them his code does not work 20:17:31 yes 20:17:58 kk, guess lets wait a little and maybe he can drop on IRC (or i guess he's working on it currently anyway) 20:18:12 we were talking about it today, i think we'll have partial solution for 0.2 and we'll see what we can do next 20:18:15 not releasing today anyway, but would be interested in the issue he had 20:18:24 k 20:18:56 if u interested i can try to elaborate on that later, on open-discuss or after meeting 20:19:11 np 20:19:14 sounds good 20:19:59 next topic then :) keep up the reviewing! ;) 20:20:10 #topic integration progress 20:20:28 so didn't work out getting a meeting early this week, but guess we can do a short one 20:21:20 akarpinska-home for icehouse cinder has the refactored code work correct? still pretty basic usage of taskflow though 20:21:57 i believe also glance has there tasks api (not using taskflow, although afaik they want to) 20:22:09 I'm in progress, get a timeout to finish taskflow stuff 20:22:13 np 20:22:20 thinking we can all jump in and help :) 20:22:31 changbl glance might be a nice integration point and good one to do also 20:22:56 and i can help out with akarpinska-home and cinder 20:23:17 harlowja, sounds good 20:23:24 although everyone i believe is in FF right now, which is ok, its good time to start discussing anyway 20:23:34 FF? 20:23:46 feature freeze 20:23:50 k 20:24:07 changbl i believe https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Glance-tasks-api is up to date, but nikhil___ and others might be able to be contacted and see whats there in icehouse (i haven't checked recently) 20:24:33 can start all that fun around seeing what is lacking in taskflow, how glance could use it and all 20:25:00 iv_m_ do u want to do that with changbl, might be useful also if u have time? 20:25:25 nova i think is still a little early to figure out yet (and alex is still working there on seeing what he can get accomplished, likely not in icehouse) 20:25:48 if there anything i can help with, i'll be glad to 20:25:55 cool 20:26:16 harlowja: we are in the glance meeting right now, however would like to provide with any information that is needed 20:26:23 nikhil___ great, thx! 20:26:45 nikhil___ just was discussing how we should start discussing with the glance folks about tasks and stuff, and seeing how to integrate (and when and all that) 20:26:51 harlowja: we do need task flow like support sometime in the future however, not in i-3 20:26:58 nikhil___ of course :) 20:27:10 sounds great nikhil___ 20:27:15 harlowja: absolutely, we should target this for j-1/2 20:27:19 cool 20:27:23 thx! 20:28:03 akarpinska-home ok with u, can split both of our times trying to continue working with the cinder folks, seems like a good way to do it (since both of us have worked with them) 20:28:17 continue keeping the momenutm and stuff there 20:28:26 ok 20:28:55 cool 20:29:12 now cinder flows are in different files, we can work together 20:29:13 think a good target maybe for next week is to just get some initial etherpads flowing between both teams 20:29:37 with something like, what exists currently, what taskflow can offer, maybe a basic idea of how 20:29:39 that seem reasonable? 20:30:42 (if not this week, maybe the next few weeks, peoples time depending) 20:31:19 are you about cinder or about taskflow? 20:31:26 both :) 20:31:56 our ideas what to do and what is done? 20:32:01 just sorta thinking etherpads with some cinder/glance plans (maybe even heat, although that one might be more heat folks dependent) 20:32:12 akarpinska-home right, with some involvement with the glance/cidner teams also :) 20:32:25 ok 20:32:46 cool 20:33:18 sound ok iv_m_ changbl ? 20:33:51 harlowja, so the glance team agreed to use taskflow right? 20:34:46 changbl i think they are fine with that, in using it 20:35:08 it will though involve working together to make sure its all fine and goes smoothly 20:35:19 and so-on 20:35:30 any API for us to start with? 20:35:33 glance API 20:36:05 likely, that will be part of the investigation period i think, nikhil___ and markwash would likely know (although i think they are in there irc meeting in -alt right now) 20:37:04 ok, wonder what I should in detail. Go to implement an example API and see the response? 20:38:43 i think to start it can be more of just figuring out whats there (discussing with the glance folks), maybe seeing it in action (setting up glance for icehouse), checking out the docs, and thinking and writing up where taskflow can fit in the glance picture, 20:39:26 harlowja: can we please discuss the use cases a bit on Monday? 20:39:41 thats fine with me :) 20:39:51 we have a sync up meeting tomorrow when we will know the remaning pieces to target and get a clear picture 20:39:55 k 20:40:20 changbl seem ok? 20:40:36 sure, let me know the time for monday meeting. maybe i can join 20:40:41 nikhil___, harlowja are u talking about some meeting on monday, or just #openstack-state-management? 20:41:07 could be, seems undecided yet iv_m_ 20:41:14 could be in #openstack-glance ? 20:42:34 lets figure that out afterwards i think, shouldn't be a problem 20:42:54 #topic documentation 20:42:58 so iv_m_ all yours :) 20:43:09 ya, i'll try to be quick 20:43:10 so 20:43:20 #link we have docs at http://docs.openstack.org/developer/taskflow/ which are generated via sphinx 20:43:23 #link and bp for improving them https://blueprints.launchpad.net/taskflow/+spec/sphinx-docs 20:43:26 #link and docs on wiki https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TaskFlow 20:43:29 the question is, what should go to wiki and what should go to shpinx 20:43:51 imo, wiki is for general concepts, tips and tricks and general design explanations, while things that are needed for reference should go to sphinx doc 20:44:29 iv_m_ i agree, so examples would be the main movers right? engine types and backend descriptions and such would also move? 20:46:03 we may want to have e.g some high-level desciription of engine types still on wiki, and sphinx should provide list of configuration parameters and such things 20:46:09 k 20:46:26 that seems fine with me 20:46:42 i also thought we should movet things like https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/TaskFlow/States_of_Task_and_Flow, but akarpinska-home said we should not 20:46:55 *that's why i raised the question here basically 20:47:11 hmmm 20:47:32 for things like states of tasks i have additional concern: every time code changes we should update the page describing states 20:47:36 wiki page effectively becomes a changelog, while sphinx docs can be easily kept in sync with code 20:47:40 ya, i'm sort of leaning to that being developer docs 20:47:46 akarpinska-home yt 20:48:06 since its really more of an internal detail that would be nicer to just keep in sync with code (automatically if we can) 20:48:50 i've seen sphinx has graphvis plugin... 20:48:54 ah, nice 20:49:22 I thought that we should describe states on wiki because it is visible for user 20:50:00 and i said that our users are developers, so they look at developers docs, too 20:50:02 sure, but seems like most developers would be the target readers of it? 20:50:04 maybe we should leave a brief description on wiki, but move graphs to dev docs 20:50:49 ya, brief description and more words on why states are important and what they may be used for 20:51:00 k, that seems fair 20:51:03 and that note on 3-d party states 20:51:36 k, lets try that, sound ok? 20:51:51 move anything we think is more developer centric to developer docs 20:51:53 k, that seems solved, and we can move to next agenda item) 20:51:57 kk 20:52:09 #topic volunteer for oslo security team 20:52:27 so chatting with doug, he'd appreciate if someone from taskflow was on the oslo security team 20:52:34 *some core from taskflow 20:52:40 for potentially any security issues 20:52:49 in general or possibly just releated to taskflow 20:52:50 https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Security/How_To_Contribute 20:53:45 interesting 20:54:02 dhellmann yt 20:54:09 hi 20:54:11 hey 20:54:19 so discussing the security volunteer stuffs :) 20:54:58 so i was thinking that someone could desire to do this, if not i can (but thought it'd be nice to see if anyone else would want to also) 20:55:18 yeah, 1-2 is fine, but I need at least 1 20:55:50 we don't want a huge list, keep in mind this is just the "initial contact" and others can be pulled in as needed 20:55:56 sure 20:56:02 and it's not like you're on call or something -- no pagers :-) 20:56:07 dhellmann phew, lol 20:56:29 i could do that too, if noone else really wants, and if it does not mean attending oslo meetings on firday is not mandatory 20:56:50 no, I don't think it will mean attending any regular meetings 20:57:02 certainly not for oslo itself 20:57:21 if we have any issues to deal with, I would expect to coordinate closely, but on a case by case basis 20:57:25 iv_m_ i'm ok with doign it also, just thinking someone might be interested thats all :) 20:58:26 iv_m_ do u want to try it out then, see how it goes (if not ok, thats fine, i can do it also) 20:58:56 k, if noone objects, write me as volonteer, and we'll see how it goes 20:59:13 i'm fine with that :) 20:59:49 dhellmann sound ok with u, iv_m_ a smart guy and all 20:59:49 :) 21:00:21 sure, just send me the launchpad ids so I can add you to the contact team 21:00:30 k, sounds good 21:00:32 and time up 21:00:32 ack 21:00:45 more in #openstack-state-management, to be continued next time! 21:00:59 sorry folks, cutting short 21:00:59 #endmeeting
