18:02:06 <tdawson> Hi
18:02:08 * mboddu is here
18:02:09 <pgreco> hi
18:02:11 <nirik> morning
18:02:16 <smooge> #topic EPEL-8
18:02:32 <smooge> hi mohan you have the best handle on where things are at the moment
18:02:42 <mboddu> Sure, I can go ahead
18:03:22 <mboddu> #info epel8-playground testing compose was successful, it needs scripting updates to sync the content to mirrors
18:03:36 <mboddu> ^ This compose will be run every night using a cron job
18:04:11 <mboddu> #info epel8 will be enabled in bodhi as early as today (if any delays, it might get postponed to tomorrow)
18:04:37 <mboddu> ^ These are the general updates that are we are used to with other epel and fedora releases
18:05:15 <tdawson> Will it start with the usual two week waitting time?  Or will we initially start it with something shorter?
18:05:36 <mboddu> #info epel8-playground composes will be synced to /pub/epel/8-playground/, where as epel8 composes will be synced to /pub/epel/8/
18:05:59 <mboddu> tdawson: It will start with 2 week waiting, unless we decide other wise
18:06:20 <tdawson> *nods* ok
18:06:22 <smooge> mboddu, oh.. I was wondering if we wanted to sync playground to /pub/epel/playground/8
18:06:52 <smooge> in case we have the energy to do /pub/epel/playground/7
18:07:02 <smooge> but I am not wed to that in any shape
18:07:37 <mboddu> smooge: Nether am I, nirik and I discussed this a few min ago in releng meeting, so we are still open to changes, nothing has been set yet
18:07:56 <smooge> oh sorry I could not be there
18:08:10 <pgreco> 7.7 is around the corner, but it would be a nice addition for 7.8
18:08:23 <smooge> nirik, do you like the color of  playground/8 or 8-playground better?
18:08:54 <mboddu> #info My fedpkg patch has been merged and now waiting on the build
18:09:23 * mboddu prefers playground/8 just like testing/8 for testing repos
18:10:26 <mboddu> I should stop talking about my preferences, its adding more work for me at the end of the day :D
18:10:44 <nirik> sorry, got distracted.
18:10:46 <smooge> well I prefer your preference
18:10:46 <bstinson> +1 for playground/8
18:10:53 <tdawson> My preference is playground/8
18:10:54 <nirik> I care not much. ;)
18:11:09 <nirik> playground/8 does seem more expandable
18:11:09 <smooge> ok can I help on taking that work from you mboddu ?
18:11:30 <mboddu> #info epel8-playground composes will be synced to /pub/epel/playground/8/
18:11:58 <mboddu> smooge: This time its not big of a deal, just need to tweak the script a bit (but its a one time only thing)
18:12:14 <mboddu> Its a 2 min change
18:12:32 <mboddu> I think thats all I got
18:13:08 <mboddu> #info smooge created a ticket to discuss on mirror manager side of things - https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/8057
18:13:27 <smooge> ok cool
18:13:30 <mboddu> I think thats it, we are almost ready
18:13:35 <smooge> yay!
18:13:35 <mboddu> for epel8
18:14:11 <smooge> ok I have a document on what I know currently for people to package things
18:14:48 <smooge> https://hackmd.io/@ssmoogen/B1p2QM-eS
18:14:59 <smooge> can people let me know what needs to be added changed etc?
18:16:19 <smooge> anything else people would like to have added as I was oging to use this as the "Poseidon, release the Kraken!" line
18:18:00 <tdawson> smooge: You should probrubly have something in there about putting the target on when building on playground
18:18:27 <smooge> ok will add a section on that and ping people
18:19:03 <smooge> My brain is mush so I don't have anything else I can think of for today
18:19:07 <smooge> #topic Open Floor
18:20:24 <smooge> bstinson, anything your group needs from EPEL-8 starting out?
18:21:24 <mboddu> smooge: https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/W3Yg8wVAUZPZn2~oVQK21A can you add this script where it says "Releng will also provide a simple shell script which will help the maintainers to request epel8 branch for multiple packages that they are interested in maintaining in EPEL8."
18:21:57 <smooge> ok will do so
18:22:56 <bstinson> smooge: i don't think directly, but i may try to help on a few packages
18:23:47 <smooge> ok cool
18:25:12 <smooge> so at this point I am toast. I need to do a lot of documentation which will be my focus for the next 2 days
18:25:50 <smooge> I hope you all have a good 2 weeks. There will be no meeting next week because of FLOCK. I will need someone to run the meeting on the 14th
18:26:17 <smooge> #info No meeting on the 2019-08-07. People will be at FLOCK
