12:10:33 <rafi> moving into next topic
12:10:52 <kdhananjay> #topic overclk to create a feature page about lockdep in couple of week's time
12:11:00 <kdhananjay> overclk: Any update on this?
12:11:06 <overclk> kdhananjay: that's done. https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs-specs
12:11:19 <hchiramm> kdhananjay, https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs-specs/blob/master/Feature%20Planning/GlusterFS%204.0/lockdep.md
12:11:32 <overclk> thanks hchiramm for merging the pull request.
12:11:46 <hchiramm> overclk, yw
12:12:04 <overclk> As of now I've just mentioned myself in the owner list.
12:12:07 <kshlm> overclk, finally!
12:12:11 <rafi> #link feature page is at https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs-specs/blob/master/Feature%20Planning/GlusterFS%204.0/lockdep.md
12:12:15 <overclk> kshlm: oh yeh!
12:12:40 <ndevos> hchiramm: was glusterfs-specs not supposed to be a gerrit repo?
12:12:45 <overclk> IIRC, few others were interested too. raghu, krishnan_p ?
12:12:52 <ndevos> I thougt we would use that for commenting on specs?
12:13:20 <raghu> overclk: yes. I am interested.
12:13:39 <rtalur> ndevos: yes, that is right
12:13:50 <overclk> raghu: okies. I'll probably do the needful. Go through the feature page anyway...
12:14:04 <raghu> overclk: sure.
12:14:22 * ndevos wonders how we can comment on a spec that has been merged alread?
12:14:28 <hchiramm> ndevos, however we can have it in gluster-specs as a scratch page .
12:14:46 <ndevos> hchiramm: sure, but this gets really confusing :-(
12:14:54 <rtalur> hchiramm: yes, this is confusing
12:15:09 <rtalur> we can use the same gerrit we have
12:15:22 <rtalur> a new project should be enough
12:15:24 <hchiramm> rtalur, yes, we need to setup a  project in gerrit for the same
12:15:38 <hchiramm> then keep tracking the patches.. its not there yet..
12:15:58 <rtalur> action item on me, if you would help with it
12:16:05 <hchiramm> rtalur, sure
12:16:20 <rtalur> kdhananjay: You can add that action item on me.
12:16:27 <hchiramm> #action rtalur setup a new project gerrit specs in review.gluster.org
12:16:46 <kdhananjay> Moving on ...
12:16:54 <rafi> #topic hagarth to do 3.7.3 announcement on the gluster blog and social media
12:17:09 * rafi is searching on https://www.facebook.com/GlusterInc
12:17:33 <rafi> hagarth: do you want to add anything ?
12:17:34 <atinm> I don't think it has been announced yet
12:17:56 <hagarth> rafi: will work on kshlm for this one
12:18:00 <kkeithley> there's email on gluster-users about 3.7.3 released
12:18:04 <hagarth> s/on/with/
12:18:11 <rafi> hagarth: sure
12:18:26 <atinm> kkeithley, I meant social media
12:18:45 <rafi> #action hagarth and kshlm will announce 3.7.3 release on the gluster blog and social media
12:19:08 <kshlm> Just to note, bind-insecure is the default with 3.7.3 and needs to be mentioned in the release announcements.
12:19:12 <pranithk> hagarth: Don't wait for my blog/mail as we are waiting for some info from a user who raised a data corruption bug on ec which is not re-creatable. Xavi and I decided we will wait a day
12:19:26 <hagarth> pranithk: ok
12:19:34 <kshlm> I couldn't add this to the release-notes as I didn't know about it then.
12:20:05 <kshlm> #info 3.7.3 defaults to bind-insecure/allow-insecure, which causes some issues with older clients/servers.
12:21:06 <rafi> kshlm: hagarth : any thing more on this
12:21:20 <hagarth> rafi: nothing more here from me
12:21:24 <kshlm> rafi, No more.
12:21:34 <rafi> then moving on to next topic
12:21:36 <rafi> #topic pranithk to write up a post announcing EC's production readiness.
12:22:09 <kshlm> pranithk just said he
12:22:13 <pranithk> rafi: ^^
12:22:18 <kshlm> 's still waiting
12:22:28 <kdhananjay> pranithk: Based on your comment above, do we add this as an action item on you for next week?
12:22:36 <pranithk> kdhananjay: yes please
12:22:50 <kdhananjay> #action pranithk to write up a post announcing EC's production readiness.
12:23:16 <rafi> pranithk: great
12:23:19 <rafi> moving on
12:23:21 <rafi> #topic rtalur to send update mailing list with a DiSTAF how-to and start discussion on enhancements to DiSTAF.
12:23:45 <rafi> rtalur: I couldn't see a mail regarding this on gluster-devel,
12:23:53 <poornimag> rtalur not here, probably carry on for next week
12:24:00 <rafi> poornimag: ok
12:24:21 <rafi> #action  rtalur to send update mailing list with a DiSTAF how-to and start discussion on enhancements to DiSTAF.
12:24:51 <rafi> we will discuss this topic next week
12:24:55 <rafi> next topic
12:25:03 <kdhananjay> #topic kshlm to test  the new jenkins slave in ci.gluster.org - did some tests, but misc did  most of the testing. I'll continue this week.
12:25:16 <kdhananjay> oops :P
12:25:18 <rafi> and the last one :)
12:25:23 <kshlm> Well I already answered it :)
12:25:32 <kdhananjay> Sorry about that, kshlm. :)
12:25:44 <kdhananjay> Moving on...
12:25:56 <kdhananjay> #topic Glusterfs 3.7
12:26:52 <kdhananjay> kshlm: Do you want to take over?
12:26:54 <kshlm> I've created a tracker for 3.7.4
12:27:19 <kshlm> The current plan is to do the release in the last week of August, following on from the discussion from last week about monthly releases.
12:27:22 <kshlm> That's all.
12:27:24 <hagarth> kshlm: do we have target milestones for 3.7.4 in bugzilla now?
12:27:46 <kshlm> hagarth, Nope! I forgot about this.
12:27:48 <kkeithley> yes, but they're at the end of the list of Target Milestones
12:28:00 <hagarth> kkeithley: ok cool!
12:28:03 <ndevos> hagarth: we dont use milestones, unless it gets documented in the workflow
12:28:04 <kkeithley> right where you'd _not_ expect to find them
12:28:12 <hagarth> ndevos: ah ok
12:28:21 <kkeithley> I set them, for myself
12:28:30 <ndevos> also, open bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=glusterfs-3.7.4&maxdepth=1&hide_resolved=0
12:29:24 <kshlm> I need to prune that list. Some of the bugs there have already been fixed according the comments in them.
12:29:59 <ndevos> kshlm: and poke the assignees to send patches, or fix the status of the bugs
12:30:16 <kshlm> ndevos, I plan to the same.
12:31:11 <rafi> #info developers/assignees of the bug should update the bug properly
12:31:54 <rafi> #info we need a clean list of tracker bug that are targeted for glusterfs-3.7.4
12:32:09 <rafi> any thing more on 3.7.4
12:32:11 <kkeithley> if an assignee thinks the bz doesn't belong to them, what should they do? reset the assignee and remove Triaged?
12:32:27 <kkeithley> and they don't know who it should be assigned to?
12:33:06 <rafi> kkeithley: that would be a good idea
12:33:47 <rafi> kkeithley: so that we can discuss about this bug in bug traige meeting and take decision whether we need to consider for release tag
12:33:53 <ndevos> for any weird status' of bugs, you can also set needinfo to bugs@gluster.org , it will get picked up during the next triage meeting then
12:34:38 <ndevos> #info not sure where a bug belongs, set a needinfo to bugs@gluster.org and the next triage meeting will check it out
12:35:06 <rafi> kshlm: any thing more on topic 3.7 ?
12:36:01 <kdhananjay> possibly not.
12:36:10 <kdhananjay> Moving on
12:36:25 <kdhananjay> #topic GlusterFS 3.6
12:36:50 <kdhananjay> raghu`: Anything to talk about here?
12:36:53 <raghu`> Not much from me. I am planning to make 3.6.5 next week (atleast by end of next week).
12:37:32 <raghu`> kdhananjay: Backports are welcome. I have some backports from Vijaykumar. They are quota related patches.
12:37:56 <raghu`> request more backports from other components as well
12:38:38 <ndevos> raghu`: yeah, the resolve-gids might be good to get backported by then
12:38:59 <raghu`> ndevos: sure. It seems the patch has been accepted in master.
12:39:11 <rafi> #info backport all the patches that need to get in for 3.6.5 within 1 weeks
12:40:08 <ndevos> raghu`: ah, I didnt see that yet, I'll have to do a pull request for the docs too then
12:40:19 <rafi> #info tentative date for next release of glusterfs-3.6.5 will be Aug 14
12:41:02 <rafi> any thing else ?
12:41:13 <raghu`> rafi: there are also a discussion going on about the release schedule.
12:41:54 <raghu`> rafi: If the feedback as to make releases as proposed in the mail, then probably 3.6.5 might happen bit later.
12:42:01 <atinm> raghu`, I want to get BZ 1248298 backported to 3.6, will send the backport soon
12:42:17 <raghu`> atinm: sure.
12:42:27 <rafi> raghu`: no problem, let's stick on release-schedule plan
12:42:39 <raghu`> rafi: sure.
12:42:45 <rafi> raghu`: I just put a tentative date ;)
12:43:12 <raghu`> rafi: ok
12:43:36 <kkeithley> It'll be good to have a release while I'm there. Then we can go over the packaging process with the new packaging "volunteers". ;-)
12:44:07 <kkeithley> we still have some volunteers, right?
12:44:11 <rafi> kkeithley: sounds good
12:44:36 <rafi> kkeithley: when are you planning come ?
12:44:52 <rafi> kkeithley: then we can schedule accordingly :)
12:45:17 <msvbhat> kkeithley: Yep, I'm one of thew volunteer :)
12:45:24 <kkeithley> I'll be in the office on the 17th.
12:45:25 <msvbhat> s/thew/the
12:45:52 <rafi> ok
12:46:18 <hchiramm> kkeithley, yes..
12:46:28 <hchiramm> we will schedule a meeting once u r here
12:46:51 <kkeithley> sure
12:47:10 <rafi> so that's decided
12:47:20 <rafi> let's move to next topic
12:47:44 <rafi> #topic GlusterFS-3.5
12:48:09 <rafi> ndevos: come out from the chair and speak up
12:48:14 <rafi> ndevos: :)
12:48:23 <ndevos> the main change that I'd like to see in 3.5.6 is the gfapi cleanup from poornimag
12:48:31 <poornimag> there is a request for backporting set of patches for 3.5, but its still not backported to 3.6, we will have to backport it to 3.6 and then 3.5?
12:48:43 <ndevos> yes, that would be best
12:49:05 <ndevos> it should at least get posted for release-3.6 when the patches are done for 3.5
12:49:28 <poornimag> ok, and should it be released? before 3.5 releases?
12:49:47 <ndevos> no, that is not a hard requirement, it is a nice to have
12:50:24 <pranithk> ndevos: poornimag: Are these the glfs fini changes?
12:50:33 <kkeithley> AFAIC the main thing is to have it posted to the main branch.
12:50:36 <ndevos> 3.5 can have patches merged before 3.6, but the next 3.6.x should have those changes too
12:50:40 <poornimag> ok, So ~10 patchsets haven't tried the backport yet, will update the bz with findings by 7th
12:50:49 <poornimag> pranithk: yes
12:51:00 <rafi> poornimag: do you want me to add an action item for backporting the glfs_fini ?
12:51:10 <ndevos> poornimag: wow, even more patches than I thought, thanks for looking into it!
12:51:19 <pranithk> poornimag: Okay I need to backport my patches which uncovered bugs in fini path... in snapshot etc.
12:51:39 <poornimag> yes, pranithk: ok
12:52:36 <kkeithley> AFAIC the main thing is to have it posted to the main branch. After that the backports and releases on the branches can happen when they get done, when it's convenient.
12:52:53 <kkeithley> convenient for a release
12:53:12 <kkeithley> and as ndevos said, it's "nice to have" them happen 3.7 -> 3.6 -> 3.5
12:53:15 <rafi> #info glfs_fini backport will be a blocker for 3.5.6
12:53:16 <poornimag> kkeithley, then probably i ll try for 3.5 before 3.6
12:53:44 <poornimag> rafi, yet to decide if it should be a blocker:)
12:54:17 <rafi> #topic GlusterFS - 4.0
12:54:35 <raghu`> poornimag: I think it would be better to backport those changes to release-3.6 as well
12:54:38 <ndevos> poornimag: we'll just delay 3.5.6 until its ready :)
12:54:39 <rafi> jdarcy : are you around ?
12:55:04 * shyam will announce DHT2 related work efforts and repository for Gl4.0 this week (on the devel list)
12:55:05 <poornimag> raghu, ndevos, alright
12:55:29 <rafi> #action shyam will announce DHT2 related work efforts and repository for Gl4.0 this week
12:56:04 <shyam> Jeff is on (P/F)TO to the best of my knowledge, could still be in the meeting though :)
12:56:27 <rafi> krishnan_p: do you have any thing to add about Glusterd-2
12:57:14 <rafi> alright , we can move on to last topic
12:57:20 <kdhananjay> #topic open floor
12:57:25 <poornimag> what about 3.8
12:57:28 <poornimag> ?
12:57:48 <rafi> poornimag: it is not there in agenda
12:58:01 * kkeithley thinks that's her point!
12:58:09 <poornimag> yes:)
12:58:13 <kkeithley> maybe add it to the agenda
12:58:23 <rafi> poornimag: let's discuss in open floor
12:58:30 <rafi> poornimag: kkeithley  ; ;)
12:58:46 <kkeithley> add it to the agenda for next week
12:58:57 <rafi> kkeithley: sure,
12:59:20 <kkeithley> and discuss now in open floor?
12:59:29 <msvbhat> We have been having some discussions on upstream testing using DiSTAF, myself or rtalur will send out a notification soon
12:59:30 <rafi> #action rafi need to add a new topic for GlusterFS 3.8
13:00:02 <msvbhat> I want to do some prototype of the enhancements planned before sending out the mail
13:00:46 <rafi> #agreed to use DiSTAF for upstream pre release testing
13:01:54 <rafi> any thing more to discuss
13:02:05 <pranithk> rafi: I added about documentation...
13:02:15 * msvbhat has nothing else to discuss
13:02:26 <pranithk> rafi: Per release documentation. Users are landing on 3.2 documentation from google itseems. How can we make this better
13:03:18 <ndevos> pranithk: I think hchiramm is working on adding redirects from the old wiki to the new docs?
13:03:37 <pranithk> ndevos: I will work with him in that case. Thanks
13:03:47 <kdhananjay> #info REMINDER to put (even minor) interesting topics on https://public.pad.fsfe.org/p/gluster-weekly-news
13:04:12 <kdhananjay> #info REMINDER to announce Gluster attendance of events: https://public.pad.fsfe.org/p/gluster-events
13:04:22 <kdhananjay> OK, anything more?
13:04:30 <kdhananjay> I guess not.
13:04:53 <rafi> we were 5 minutes later than scheduled time, sorry guys
13:04:59 <kdhananjay> OK everyone, thanks for attending.
