12:04:05 <kkeithley> who wants to report?
12:04:19 <kkeithley> oops, getting ahead of myself
12:04:27 <kkeithley> #topic next week's host
12:04:39 <kkeithley> who would like to volunteer to chair next week?
12:05:20 <kkeithley> the silence is deafening
12:05:24 <partner> :)
12:05:42 <partner> i'll try one day but i'm starting my vacation next week so probably won't be joining
12:05:53 <kkeithley> fair enough
12:07:08 <kkeithley> tsk, tsk...   We'll come back to that in a bit
12:07:17 <kkeithley> #topic GlusterFS 4.0
12:07:22 <kkeithley> any news on 4.0?
12:07:26 * ramky has joined in late and is here
12:07:31 <atinm> from GD2, we are still working on the txn framework, kshlm is re-exploring the gRPC and see if we can fit that instead of protobuf, ppai has fixed few low hanging fruits
12:07:50 <atinm> over to jdarcy now
12:08:10 <jdarcy> Nothing from here.  Been working on other patches.
12:09:04 <kkeithley> Any idea about a possible release date?  Would setting a date help with setting work priorities?
12:09:23 <kkeithley> just curious!
12:09:34 <kkeithley> SWAG?
12:09:45 <jdarcy> Adding people and subtracting distractions would help a lot more.
12:09:59 <jdarcy> The more features we throw into 3.x releases, the longer 4.0 will take.
12:10:37 <jdarcy> RIght now, we occasionally get some of Atin's and Kaushal's time for GD2, some of Shyam's for DHT2, and that's about it.
12:11:17 <kkeithley> okay
12:11:27 <kkeithley> anything else or shall we move on to the next topic?
12:11:38 * jdarcy votes for next topic.

12:12:32 <aravindavk> kkeithley: just joined
12:12:50 <kkeithley> aravindavk: any status on 3.9? Any progress?
12:13:22 <aravindavk> Road map page update pending, will send out status to devel this week
12:14:27 <kkeithley> I'll presume that we are on track for release on schedule at this point in time?
12:14:46 * msvbhat arrives late
12:14:48 <kkeithley> #topic GlusterFS 3.8
12:14:56 <aravindavk> kkeithley: looks good
12:15:14 <kkeithley> excellent
12:15:26 <kkeithley> ndevos is in another meeting.
12:15:37 <kkeithley> He released 3.8.1 on Friday (a couple days early.
12:15:52 <kkeithley> )
12:16:11 <kkeithley> so far feedback seems good
12:16:38 <partner> i haven't got any time to test the memory leaks we've encountered (not for 3.7 neither)
12:16:49 <kkeithley> a fair number of downloads from d.g.o and Launchpad
12:17:04 <kkeithley> https://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/download-stats.html
12:17:24 <kkeithley> anyone have any questions or comments about 3.8 or 3.8.1?
12:17:31 <kkeithley> going once?
12:17:37 <kkeithley> going twice?
12:17:44 <post-factum> boom
12:17:44 <kkeithley> moving on to next topic
12:17:51 <kkeithley> #topic GlusterFS 3.7
12:18:08 <kkeithley> kaushal_: ?
12:18:11 <post-factum> 3.7.13 still requires some patches for us to run OK :)
12:18:52 <post-factum> kotreshhr: http://review.gluster.org/#/c/13658/ this one is the one that waits to be merged for half a year or so ;). could you please take some look at it?
12:19:11 <kkeithley> do we have bugs and patches for those in hte system?
12:19:12 <kotreshhr> post-factum: I need reviewers time
12:19:41 <post-factum> kotreshhr: it seems smoke is not happy with some metadata like version, branch etc
12:20:23 <kotreshhr> post-factum: Ok, I will look into smoke issue. I need some one to review it.
12:20:36 <atinm> On 3.7.13 & 3.8.1 I had a question for ndevos and kshlm - http://www.gluster.org/pipermail/maintainers/2016-July/001063.html
12:20:39 <post-factum> kotreshhr: probably, here we could find some volunteers to do that :)
12:21:43 <kkeithley> so, for the record, 3.7.13 was an "emergency" release, i.e. made ahead of schedule.  The next scheduled release is  30 July.  Is there any reason to believe that won't happen?
12:22:55 <kkeithley> tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock....
12:22:59 <kotreshhr> post-factum: Hopefully, I will check with Raghavendra as well for review. I follow it up to get it merged
12:23:09 <post-factum> kotreshhr: many thanks
12:23:31 <post-factum> atinm: does that affect geo-rep only?
12:23:49 <kkeithley> #action kshlm and ndevos to respond to http://www.gluster.org/pipermail/maintainers/2016-July/001063.html
12:24:20 <atinm> post-factum, no, it primarily affects AFR
12:24:32 <atinm> post-factum, people may end up in split brains
12:25:34 <atinm> kotreshhr has an upstream patch http://review.gluster.org/#/c/14898/ to take care of this issue but that can only land in coming releases
12:26:25 <kkeithley> coming release like 3.7.14 and 3.8.2? Or 3.9?
12:26:41 <post-factum> atinm: so, if we do not have geo-rep installed, we shouldn't care?
12:27:13 <kotreshhr> post-factum: If geo-rep is not installed, the issue is not hit
12:27:21 <post-factum> kotreshhr: ok, thanks
12:27:24 <atinm> post-factum, right! you don't have to as in that case the error is ignored out
12:28:28 <kotreshhr> post-factum: It's basically the problem with the order in which packages are installed, geo-rep package is installed after server, but server call gsyncd provided by geo-rep resulting in using older version binary.
12:29:48 <post-factum> kotreshhr: okay. just will note that
12:30:11 <kkeithley> #info  problem with the order in which packages are installed, geo-rep package is installed after server, but server call gsyncd provided by geo-rep resulting in using older version binary.
12:30:39 <kkeithley> anything else on 3.7?
12:31:06 <kkeithley> let's try this again
12:31:19 <kkeithley> #topic next week's meeting chair
12:31:25 <kkeithley> need a volunteer.
12:33:59 <kkeithley> I'm coming to BLR in Sept. or Oct. I'm going to come around to people's desks and stare at them.  I'm sure it'll make you feel uncomfortable.  Volunteer now and avoid the discomfort
12:34:10 <post-factum> :D
12:34:39 <kkeithley> sigh
12:34:45 <kkeithley> #topic GlusterFS 3.6
12:35:10 <kkeithley> I don't see rabhat or rtalur here
12:35:51 <skoduri> rastar is rtalur
12:35:57 <kkeithley> No security or vuln fixes that I'm aware of
12:36:06 <kkeithley> oh, yeah, right. ;-)
12:36:37 <kkeithley> doh
12:36:58 <kkeithley> (he is rtalur on RH internal IRC)
12:37:19 <rastar> I don't have any update on this. no security or vuln fixes.
12:37:34 <kkeithley> okay, moving on
12:37:42 <kkeithley> #topic Infrastructure
12:37:48 <kkeithley> nigelb, you're up
12:38:55 <nigelb> We're having an outage in RDU. This means that we will have Gerrit issues and Jenkins issues. Clones are taking a lot of time. There's a good backlog of jobs, especially netbsd jobs.
12:39:05 <nigelb> So, today is going to be bad.
12:39:53 <kkeithley> anything else on infrastructure?
12:39:56 <nigelb> Hopefully time warner will fix things up soonish
12:40:02 <kkeithley> pfft
12:40:12 <nigelb> More work is being done on JBB. I'd like to see anyone wants to help with reviewing JJB jobs from the community. If you don't know how it works, well, I'm learning too. So it's about reading documentation and checking it should work. An example to review: https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs-patch-acceptance-tests/pull/36
12:40:17 <nigelb> *see if
12:40:55 <nigelb> My short-term goal is to be able to create jobs without being blocked by access :)
12:41:00 <kkeithley> what is JBB?
12:41:17 <nigelb> Jenkins Job Builder - http://docs.openstack.org/infra/jenkins-job-builder/
12:42:08 <kkeithley> #topic NFS-Ganesha
12:42:17 <kkeithley> skoduri: anything to report?

12:42:51 <kkeithley> #topic Samba

12:43:29 <ira> kkeithley: Not at the moment.
12:43:35 * ira is here.
12:44:00 <kkeithley> #topic AIs from last week
12:44:11 <kkeithley> kshlm/csim/nigelb to set up faux/pseudo user email for gerrit, bugzilla, github
12:44:36 <kkeithley> I'm guessing no progress on this, correct?
12:44:38 <nigelb> I have no idea what this involves at this point.
12:44:53 <nigelb> Whoever is responsible, talk to me after meeting?
12:45:46 <kkeithley> is bugs@gluster.org a real email address?  Can we fix the gerrit patch updates to bugzilla to use bugs@gluster.org instead of vbellur@.... ?
12:46:24 <kkeithley> #actionu kshlm, csim to chat with nigelb about setting up faux/pseudo user email for gerrit, bugzilla, github
12:46:33 <kkeithley> rastar to look at 3.6 builds failures on BSD

12:47:16 <post-factum> kkeithley: "action"
12:47:36 <rastar> But I will check again and confirm,
12:47:42 <rastar> mostly it is done.
12:47:43 <kkeithley> #action kshlm, csim to chat with nigelb about setting up faux/pseudo user email for gerrit, bugzilla, github
12:48:12 <rastar> kkeithley: please add action for now
12:48:22 <rastar> I will send a mail update on this so that it can be closed
12:48:32 <kkeithley> #action rastar to look at 3.6 builds failures on BSD
12:48:44 <kkeithley> kshlm will start a mailing list discussion on EOLing 3.6
12:49:00 <kkeithley> anyone know if this happened?
12:49:38 <kkeithley> I don't see mail with that topic
12:49:51 <kkeithley> let's roll it over for next week
12:49:58 <kkeithley> #action kshlm will start a mailing list discussion on EOLing 3.6

12:51:09 <aravindavk> kkeithley: link is available in blog but not clickable
12:51:18 <kkeithley> snerk
12:51:26 <kkeithley> okay

12:53:35 <kkeithley> someone want to avoid the glare of discomfort?
12:53:52 <nigelb> I'm glad I don't work out of the BLR office ;)
12:54:27 <kkeithley> I can come to Pune and Chennai too. Or are you in the Delhi office?
12:54:31 <kkeithley> I can come there too.
12:54:32 <kkeithley> ;-)
12:54:53 <nigelb> Mumbai
12:55:04 <kkeithley> Oh, that's possible as well.

12:55:20 <kkeithley> #topic Open Floor
12:56:05 <kkeithley> anyone have anything?
12:56:58 <nigelb> I have a small-ish thing.
12:57:05 <kkeithley> go for it
12:57:18 <nigelb> I think it'd be useful to do a quick summary of our release - what went well, what we can improve, what we did improve this time.
12:57:27 <nigelb> Downstream does this. I think it would be worth doing upstream as well.
12:58:15 <kkeithley> I agree
12:58:35 <post-factum> nigelb: you've touched sensibile subject of maintainers responsibility
12:58:35 * kkeithley thinks of herding cats
12:59:05 <nigelb> Herding cats is what I'm thinking of as well.
12:59:20 <post-factum> because cats are cute and everyone thinks about them
12:59:30 <kkeithley> #idea quick summary of our release - what went well, what we can improve, what we did improve this time.
12:59:38 <kkeithley> I guess #idea isn't a thing
13:00:16 <kkeithley> okay, one minute remaining...   the usual reminders
