The Meeting name is 'fedora-server '

I made it just in time 😀

I'll post the agenda in 2-3 minutes.

As usual, let's wait a moment for everybody to show up.

Welcome to our weekly Server WG meeting.

I'm closing the meeting due to lack of quorum

OK, I think Fosdem is sending out its waves ahead of time.

!hello

Emmanuel Seyman (eseyman) - he / him / his

Peter Boy (ServerWG, Docs): we should submit a conference for Flock by the end of the week

Yes!

maybe a BoF session?

I have a rough idea, what we can do. I think, BoF would be better as a talk, or maybe both.

I just noticed, the Hotel du parliament is just across the street of the Fedora booked hotel this year. That provides us a lot of opportunities to evolve / fine tune the ideas.!

indeed

Do you have an rough idea for a BoF?

(or a detailed one?)

Not really

I have a secret to tell you

!hi

Jocelyn Gould (korora) - she / her / hers

This will become official on Friday. For now, I am unofficially suggesting that there is a high likelihood that the Flock CFP gets extended by one week, and exactly one week, no more and no less

Just so that those of you going to FOSDEM can breath a small sigh of relief 😉

hello, Jocelyn !

Justin Wheeler: That's good to know.

(but early submissions are always good if you can swing it)

So Peter and I can brainstorm over the weekend and maybe submit a talk while we are at FOSDEM

Justin Wheeler: Is something like BoF planned for Flock this year? I vaguely remember something like that happening on the last day. Or was it last year?

Sunday, or Day 0!

I would love to make it to Flock, but I have to wait for it to either be stateside or wait until it's safe for me to travel. (although it might still knock me down for a week or three

Day 0 is all about the workshops, the discussions, the hands-on stuff. Just remember that Day 0 is not recorded or streamed

I wish international travel was not so fraught right now 🥲

OK, not recorded or not streamed is not an issue for a BoF, I think.

one of us will probably need to take notes. That should suffice

Yeah, or we can record it ourselfs, to make a summary easy to do. I have the necessary equipment at university (and can bring it)

What do we do about our meeting? I propose to discuss at least our working plan, especially to to proceed with working on it.

I had so much to do the last days, I didn't made it to create the topics in our 'Repo.

I have A LOT to do in the coming days

Me too, that doesn't sound good.

I can create a topic for homeserver. That's easy because the work is already done on hackmd.

I'm currently evaluating the backup / rescue topic. That seems to be more of a long term project.

Emmanuel Seyman: Jocelyn (she/her) (Server WG: Docs) could one of you start to create an entry and some planning for the netboot / install topic?

Yes, I can do that

OK, then we have some material for our meeting next week. But maybe I'm busy with the council meeting. I remember vaguely there is something planned for Wednesday evening.

I'll add to it once the entry has been created

Emmanuel Seyman: can you take over the chair? Or should we cancel anyway, because we need more time to make the work?

Let's cancel. There are only 3 of us here and I'm doing multiple things at once right now

OK, Jocelyn (she/her) (Server WG: Docs) any objections about cancelling?

No objections

OK, so

Another issue is start testing the next release.

I guess, we don't have time left for that in the moment.

A bit urgently are the Server images, the KVM as well as the aarch64.

Bot are flawed.

Is there a calendar for release dates somewhere?

The file type of root partition is wrong

Yes, there is a release schedule.

Thank you!

I see, branch is next week. (2026-02-03). So, we are late.

Jocelyn (she/her) (Server WG: Docs): Could you check the VM?

That is the more important of the two.

yes, I should be able to do that

Maybe we can get mowest to check the aarch64 thing.

mowest: ping! Do you already have your arm board? Can you test the installation image?

Well, I think that's it for today?

Jocelyn (she/her) (Server WG: Docs): I suppose I forgot, but you are not living in the US, arn't you?

I'm in the US... (unfortunately, at the moment)

Oh dear, a friend of mine just “fled” to Germany. She already has a permanent residence permit, but has now also applied for citizenship. A highly qualified scientist.

OK, I think, we can close now. Or anything else to discuss?
