20:00:37 <zodbot> The meeting name has been set to 'ansible_windows_working_group'
20:00:46 <jborean93> let's see if anyone is around today
20:10:22 <briantist> hello
20:11:05 <briantist> sorry I lost track of time again, I need to set the reminder for this meeting to 1 minute before instead of 10 minutes, it's too easy to get pulled into something else in 10 mins haha
20:11:29 <briantist> anyway I don't have anything new, no update on the tests for `win_psrepository_copy` yet
20:12:45 <jborean93> no worries, sorry I haven't gotten to looking at it yet
20:14:01 <briantist> not a problem, I've partially been putting it off because the tests are tricky to structure, have to create other users to test it properly, and then check in their profiles, etc.
20:15:12 <jborean93> tests are the worst but pay off in the long run
20:15:48 <briantist> 100% agree
20:16:51 <briantist> any news about the Windows collections or on Windows-focused changes in core?
20:18:23 <jborean93> Nothing interesting. I'm planning on cutting a new release sometime this week that includes a few bugfixes and features
20:18:45 <jborean93> it's a pretty quiet time for all of us really
20:19:46 <briantist> cool! yeah same, dayjob should be really slow through the rest of the month, so maybe I'll try to buckle down and get those tests out in time for the release
20:20:30 <briantist> (assuming no other changes needed of course, nbd if it misses the release)
20:20:31 <jborean93> I'm taking the downtime to work on some pypsrp stuff. Nothing important really for Windows but work I've been wanting to do for a while
20:20:40 <jborean93> important for Ansible*
20:21:04 <briantist> I look forward to hearing about that too
20:21:45 <jborean93> It's mostly about adding asyncio support which Ansible can't really take advantage off. But it also (hopefully) simplifies the type conversation between CLIXML and Python object
20:24:07 <briantist> neat, how does async help with the type conversion?
20:24:15 <jborean93> it doesn't. But if I
20:24:27 <jborean93> I'm making a breaking change I wanted to have this in place at the same time
20:25:15 <briantist> semver-driven development 😆
20:25:42 <jborean93> pretty much...
20:26:09 <jborean93> but I've always disliked the way the conversion happened before and if I'm revamping the interface I may as well fix that at the same time
20:27:00 <briantist> sounds promising, hope you enjoy the holiday downtime :)
20:27:40 <jborean93> you too
