12:06:27 * lalatenduM is here and is late to the meeting
12:06:39 <ndevos> seems that either the person is not there, or the item is marked as [done]
12:06:43 <ndevos> #chair lalatenduM
12:06:43 <zodbot> Current chairs: Humble kkeithley_ krishnan_p lalatenduM ndevos
12:07:03 <ndevos> so, we'll jus jump to the next topic:
12:07:08 <ndevos> #topic     Group Triage
12:07:31 <ndevos> nobody proposed any particular bugs
12:07:45 <ndevos> if you got some, it is now the time to mention it
12:08:12 <ndevos> we also have no bugs with NEEDINFO(bugs@gluster.org)
12:08:42 <ndevos> #topic Bugs filed since last week
12:09:00 <ndevos> http://goo.gl/0IqF2q contains the list that needs checking
12:09:25 <ndevos> looks like people have been busy, 23 new bugs in one week!
12:09:49 <ndevos> please triage some, I'll take the disperse ones :D
12:10:17 * kkeithley_ is looking
12:11:07 <krishnan_p> ndevos, how are we spliiting the bugs to be looked at?
12:12:00 <ndevos> krishnan_p: we use irc-locking
12:12:19 <ndevos> krishnan_p: pick a bug, and mention here that you'll triage it
12:12:38 <kkeithley_> 1158088
12:12:43 <krishnan_p> ndevos, OK :)
12:12:54 <ndevos> 1158622 + all disperse
12:13:43 <kkeithley_> 1158654
12:15:28 <krishnan_p> 1158123, 1158130 have been opened by Philip Spencer and both have patches attached by him. What do you guys suggest? Shall we submit the patches to gerrit on his behalf or suggest to him to submit it via gerrit?
12:16:28 <jdarcy> I'd submit on his behalf.
12:16:34 <kkeithley_> submit on his behalf and cc him
12:17:01 <ndevos> krishnan_p: I tend to ask if the reporter wants to post the patch, or if they prefer me to post them
12:17:21 <ndevos> krishnan_p: mark the bug Triaged, and add the Patch keyword
12:17:51 <ndevos> we have quite some bugs marked with Patch, we need someone to check those and post them
12:18:17 <krishnan_p> ndevos, done.
12:19:16 <krishnan_p> 1158067
12:19:58 <krishnan_p> This bug has a needinfo on the reporter. I have requested for logs from the reporter when the issue was seen. He has not come back. Does this bug qualify for the Triaged keyword?
12:21:36 <kkeithley_> 1159269, 1159284
12:21:42 <ndevos> krishnan_p: I do not think Triaged is appropriate in that case
12:22:10 <krishnan_p> ndevos, OK.
12:22:19 <lalatenduM> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1158126 has a patch attached to it
12:22:25 <xavih> sorry to disturb... bug 1159485 seems a duplicate of 1149727, but I can't change it...
12:22:50 * krishnan_p is building his intuition for the triage process...
12:23:29 <lalatenduM> krishnan_p, ndevos are you guys marking bugs by  Philip Spencer  (with patch) as triaged ?
12:24:17 <krishnan_p> lalatenduM, I just did so for two of the bugs he had reported
12:24:41 <krishnan_p> I have in fact, irc-locked it as per ndevos' recommendation :)
12:24:53 <kkeithley_> who did hagarth say was going to be 3.6 release wrangler?
12:25:44 <lalatenduM> kkeithley_, not decided I think
12:26:06 <kkeithley_> oh, I thought there was a volunteer. Will find out tomorrow
12:26:17 <kkeithley_> in the meeting
12:26:19 <krishnan_p> raghavendra bhat volunteered to be 3.6 release maintainer IIRC.
12:26:29 <lalatenduM> kkeithley_, yeah there was a volunteer
12:26:48 <lalatenduM> kkeithley_, but not sure if it was confirmed
12:27:05 <kkeithley_> 1159253, I'm going to assign to him. We can change it if that turns out not to be the case
12:27:08 <ndevos> I have not seen a confirmation, nor a rejection
12:27:24 <krishnan_p> kkeithley_, here goes - http://supercolony.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-devel/2014-October/042661.html
12:28:02 <ndevos> 1159221 <- mine!
12:29:29 <lalatenduM> ndevos, looks like you have already looked in to 1158622
12:30:02 <ndevos> lalatenduM: yes, indeed
12:30:10 * lalatenduM forgot that ndevos is in NFS team now :)
12:30:23 <ndevos> I'll take 1158129 too
12:30:36 <kkeithley_> 1158622
12:30:48 <ndevos> everyone wants that one
12:30:49 <krishnan_p> philip spencer is on a roll. He has four bugs opened, all of them with a patch attached.
12:30:57 <ndevos> krishnan_p: awesome! :D
12:31:05 <hagarth> philipspencer++
12:31:13 <ndevos> philipspencer++
12:31:16 <lalatenduM> krishnan_p, yeah :)
12:31:20 <ndevos> oh, I got one too from him now
12:31:33 <hagarth> I think we should nudge him to have these patches appear on gerrit
12:31:35 <krishnan_p> ndevos, sadly, I am not able to verify if his patches are correct :(
12:31:43 <lalatenduM> hagarth, yup
12:31:56 <kkeithley_> as long as they're not "segv here, check for nullp and branch around it" patches
12:31:59 <lalatenduM> anyone have taken a look at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1159172
12:32:09 <lalatenduM> it looks like a bug on mainline
12:32:23 <lalatenduM> a feature request
12:33:23 <lalatenduM> ndevos, ^^ should I move it to mainline
12:33:53 <hagarth> lalatenduM: yes, it is a feature request on mainline
12:33:57 <ndevos> lalatenduM: you can, yes
12:34:02 <lalatenduM> done
12:35:10 <krishnan_p> 1158051
12:35:43 <ndevos> xavih: marked as duplicate, thanks!
12:35:43 <krishnan_p> ^^ I know Raghavendra Bhat works on USS and he is the reporter. Could we mark this Triaged?
12:36:01 <lalatenduM> another from  philipspencer 1158120 , with patch :)
12:36:09 <ndevos> krishnan_p: probably, or if a patch has been posted, just change the status
12:36:12 <hagarth> krishnan_p: +1 to 1158051
12:36:38 <ndevos> krishnan_p: you can also assign the bug to him, if you think that is suitable
12:36:48 <krishnan_p> hagarth, ndevos, makes sense. OK
12:36:49 <lalatenduM> hagarth, we should get philipspencer to mailing lists and gerrit :)
12:36:59 <krishnan_p> lalatenduM, +1
12:37:20 <lalatenduM> does anyone know this guy?
12:37:57 <ndevos> krishnan_p, lalatenduM: did you ask Philip to post his patch to Gerrit already? can I copy/paste that comment?
12:38:08 <hagarth> lalatenduM: yeah
12:38:23 <lalatenduM> ndevos, nope
12:38:46 <krishnan_p> ndevos, I havent posted the comment (yet). I could do that though
12:38:55 <krishnan_p> 1158226
12:39:15 <lalatenduM> ndevos, krishnan_p we can use http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Developers in our comment
12:39:24 <krishnan_p> ^^ this one has the patch committed. I am changing state to MODIFIED. SHould I also add the Triaged/Patch keyword?
12:39:43 <ndevos> krishnan_p: you do not have to, change the status is sufficient
12:39:50 <lalatenduM> hagarth, nice :), is he from community or rh?
12:40:01 <lalatenduM> krishnan_p, yes
12:40:02 <krishnan_p> ndevos, thanks.
12:40:18 <hagarth> lalatenduM: he is from uwaterloo.ca I think
12:40:26 <lalatenduM> ndevos, I think if we put triaged , it will not come up in bugzilla quesry
12:40:31 <lalatenduM> query*
12:40:55 <lalatenduM> hagarth, cool
12:41:20 <krishnan_p> ndevos, I will be adding a comment inviting Philip to gerrit in these two bugs - 1158120, 1158129
12:41:32 <Humble> 3.6.1 is not there in target milestone ?
12:41:35 <kkeithley_> utoronto.ca is Univ. of Toronto.
12:41:57 <hagarth> kkeithley_: right
12:42:11 <jdarcy> I wonder if pspencer@fields.utoronto.ca is related to henry@zoo.toronto.edu
12:42:19 <kkeithley_> There's a couple Target Milestones we need added. Versions too
12:42:57 <Humble> what are those
12:43:02 <Humble> I can get it sorted ..
12:44:27 * krishnan_p thinks that it would suffice if we let Philip know of our process via one BZ comment and not as many as he as opened.
12:45:12 <Humble> btw whats our approach if the patch comes through github ?
12:45:15 <hagarth> Humble: 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 target milestones would be nice to have
12:45:20 <Humble> k
12:45:37 <hagarth> Humble: we normally encourage such submitters to appear on gerrit
12:45:58 <Humble> hagarth, ok ..
12:46:00 <Humble> thanks
12:46:38 <lalatenduM> ndevos, krishnan_p here is the comment I am putting
12:46:39 <lalatenduM> Philip,
12:46:39 <lalatenduM> Thanks for the patch. GlusterFS community uses gerrit to review patches. Please refer below link to know developer work flow in GlusterFS community. If you are  interested to post the patch yourself , you are welcome to do so. If you want us to post the patch on your behalf let us know.
12:46:39 <lalatenduM> [1] http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Development_Work_Flow
12:47:28 <Humble> LGTM
12:47:37 <krishnan_p> lalatenduM, I have already posted a comment and didn't give him the option where we post patches on his behalf.
12:48:05 <lalatenduM> krishnan_p, cool, I just wanted to be more friendly :)
12:48:55 <kkeithley_> +1, looks good
12:48:57 <Humble> if they keep repeating we can notify them . for first patch its ok I think :)
12:49:01 <krishnan_p> lalatenduM, I think I was fairly friendly. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1158120
12:49:01 <ndevos> lalatenduM, krishnan_p: lets see is we all can convince him, I just posted https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1158129#c1
12:49:25 <lalatenduM> krishnan_p, yeah it is fine too
12:49:30 <lalatenduM> :)
12:49:44 <Humble> ndevos, need an entry in wiki page for this :)
12:49:55 <lalatenduM> lol :)
12:50:15 <krishnan_p> Humble, I think so to. The message is very welcoming.
12:50:39 * Humble gss++ :)
12:50:44 <ndevos> I think http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Development_Work_Flow looks scary for 1st time visitors ;)
12:50:45 <lalatenduM> ndevos, good on
12:50:48 <lalatenduM> one*
12:51:08 <lalatenduM> what abt http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Simplified_dev_workflow
12:51:14 <Humble> why  ?
12:51:16 <Humble> :)
12:51:48 <krishnan_p> Looks like all the bugs in the list are triaged.
12:51:52 <Humble> then everyone will be skipping development workflow
12:51:56 <ndevos> lalatenduM: yes, I like that one more
12:52:15 <ndevos> krishnan_p: 1158120 is not marked Triaged?
12:52:46 <krishnan_p> ndevos, Yes. I overlooked it.
12:52:51 <ndevos> krishnan_p: ah, ok
12:53:12 <ndevos> #topic Bugs per version, needs cleanup of old bugs
12:53:17 <ndevos> #link http://goo.gl/IA7zaq
12:53:55 <ndevos> we've got rid of all the ON_DEV bugs, thats a +
12:54:18 <ndevos> but, there are still quite some bugs in older versions that we do not update anymore
12:54:39 <ndevos> we should move those bugs to newer versions, or close them if they have been fixed
12:55:02 <ndevos> I'd like to ask all of you, to have a look at a few of those bugs during the week
12:55:27 <ndevos> each bug that we can 'correct', is helpful for the community
12:55:33 <hagarth> ndevos: +1 to reduce overall backlog
12:55:38 <Humble> Do we still need to look at 3.2 bugs ?
12:55:51 <krishnan_p> ndevos, would it help we picked a set of versions that we all could work on?
12:55:52 <ndevos> we'll look at them, but we won't fix them
12:56:29 <ndevos> krishnan_p: well, anything before 3.4 is legacy and should be checked/moved/closed
12:56:49 <krishnan_p> ndevos, OK. that answers my questions quite comprehensively.
12:56:56 <Humble> the code path may be totatlly differeent in latest versions
12:57:27 <Humble> so I am not sure what we do even if we see as a bug in 3.2
12:57:39 <ndevos> with our "support" schedule, we do a [ $CURRENT_VERSION - 0.2 ] maintenance
12:57:54 <ndevos> so, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 are in maintenance now
12:58:32 <ndevos> Humble: I guess we should try to figure out if that bug in 3.2 also affects the current version(s)
12:59:03 <kkeithley_> how much work should we do to confirm that a bug reported in, e.g. 3.1, is still a problem in a version we're maintaining?
12:59:15 <Humble> yep.. good question
12:59:16 <lalatenduM> kkeithley_, +1
12:59:23 <Humble> I feel its a waste of time
12:59:31 <kkeithley_> exactly
12:59:46 <ndevos> I think it depends on the maintainer of the component, get them involved if you have questions about it
13:00:29 <ndevos> for NFS, I'd like to know if there is a potential bug, and I would like to see it fixed in a current version
13:00:29 <kkeithley_> although I can't CLOSE/WONTFIX or even just CLOSE 859248
13:00:45 * lalatenduM thinks it might be a overkill for component owners
13:00:53 <Humble> indeed
13:01:31 <Humble> 3.6 is out , so soon 3.4 should be moving maintenance phase.. 3.2 is -2 from maintenance version ..
13:01:53 <ndevos> lalatenduM: really depends on the bug
13:02:25 <ndevos> kkeithley_: what prevents you from doing that?
13:03:08 <kkeithley_> no pulldown menu on the state. Bug maybe my mouse has gone wonky. Seems to work in other windows though
13:03:25 <ndevos> kkeithley_: hmm, I can change it...
13:03:42 <krishnan_p> /me needs to leave now. See you tomorrow all tomorrow. I will catch what I missed from the MoM.
13:03:45 <kkeithley_> okay, probably something wack with my mouse atm
13:03:56 <ndevos> thanks krishnan_p, cya!
13:04:16 * Humble : on other way ,we can close those 3.2 bugs saying fixed in current version , in case its not fixed report back.  :)
13:04:31 <ndevos> kkeithley_: I marked it CLOSED/INSUFFIECIENT_DATA
13:04:40 <ndevos> it was waiting on the reporter for a while
13:04:57 <ndevos> #topic open floor
13:05:11 <ndevos> anyone with a quick topic?
13:05:37 <kkeithley_> Humble: do you want to request those extra Version and Target Release versions?
13:05:42 <kkeithley_> Or shall I?
13:05:43 <Humble> yep
13:05:55 <Humble> kkeithley_, I have open request with bugzilla team
13:06:04 <Humble> if u want I can follow up on the same request
13:06:10 <Humble> whatever u prefer
13:06:36 <kkeithley_> One is enough. Unless they're not responding. Scott Haines can add them too, and he's pretty responsive
13:07:10 <Humble> ok,, I wil follow up
13:07:23 <Humble> 3.6.1 and  3.6.2 target milestones
13:07:26 <Humble> anything else ?
13:07:38 <lalatenduM> 3.5.4?
13:07:56 <ndevos> #action Humble will request additional versions in Bugzilla
13:08:01 <Humble> #action Humble - 3.6.{1,2}, 3.5.4 in TM ..
13:08:03 <ndevos> yes, 3.5.4 would be gppd
13:08:06 <ndevos> *good
13:08:07 <kkeithley_> 3.4.7?
13:08:17 <Humble> ok.. will add 3
13:08:33 <ndevos> Any other topics?
13:08:41 <Humble> not from me
13:08:55 <ndevos> #endmeeting
