MUST have updates docs 14:09:36 <mburns> 2. MUST have release notes 14:10:03 <mburns> 3. MUST work with gluster storage domains 14:10:26 <oschreib> mburns: about 3 - we should see with devel if it's really possible 14:10:46 <mburns> oschreib: iiuc, it worked with 3.1 14:11:30 <oschreib> might have 14:11:32 <oschreib> just saying 14:11:48 <oschreib> not sure it's a release blocker. 14:13:21 <ovirtbot> 14[[07OVirt 3.2 release-management14]]4 !10 02http://wiki.ovirt.org/w/index.php?diff=4689&oldid=4687&rcid=4804 5* 03Mburns 5* (+1235) 10/* Release Criteria */ add some conditions 14:13:47 <mburns> oschreib: ok, some might argue, but we can put it under SHOULD 14:14:12 <sgordon> let's be specific about updates docs 14:14:21 <sgordon> i think we mean the quick start guide jbrooks created on wiki here 14:14:21 <ovirtbot> 14[[07OVirt 3.2 release-management14]]4 !10 02http://wiki.ovirt.org/w/index.php?diff=4690&oldid=4689&rcid=4805 5* 03Mburns 5* (-13) 10/* Release Criteria (DRAFT) */ 14:14:29 <oschreib> so, why it's under MUST now? 14:14:29 <sgordon> we should work to ensure it is updated pre-release 14:14:40 <mburns> oschreib: just moved it 14:15:24 <mburns> sgordon: don't we have an installation guide too? 14:15:41 <sgordon> we do, but it's basically the RHEV 3.0 installation guide 14:15:58 <sgordon> i think it would be more achievable for now if we pool efforts into the quick start guide 14:16:18 <mburns> sgordon: ok, quick start guide is must 14:16:27 <mburns> updated installation guide is should ? 14:16:43 <sgordon> since jbrooks has gone to the trouble of "ovirtizing" it much more thoroughly 14:16:44 <sgordon> yes 14:17:21 <mgoldboi> mburns: what's the definition of should - does it have any real power? 14:17:30 <sgordon> it gets considered 14:17:38 <sgordon> should can become must depending on how close it is 14:17:55 <sgordon> we wouldn't wait a month for a "should" item 14:18:01 <sgordon> but we might wait a week 14:18:01 <sgordon> etc 14:18:17 <mburns> mgoldboi: in general, we don't block on "should", but we should concentrate on things in the "should" list before things that aren't in the should or must list 14:18:19 <sgordon> it just makes sure it's noted for discussion based on the circumstances at the go/no-go 14:18:36 <ovirtbot> 14[[07OVirt 3.2 release-management14]]4 !10 02http://wiki.ovirt.org/w/index.php?diff=4691&oldid=4690&rcid=4806 5* 03Mburns 5* (+71) 10/* Release Criteria (DRAFT) */ 14:18:38 <sgordon> that is a more articulate way of stating it ;) 14:18:50 <sgordon> (so tl;dr: what mburns said) 14:19:12 <mburns> sgordon: your point of us waiting on a "should" feature is good too 14:19:21 <mburns> we might wait a few days, but probably not a month 14:19:25 <mgoldboi> sgordon: what about regressions from 3.1 should it go into "should" or "must"? 14:19:40 <mburns> IMO, that's a must 14:19:43 <sgordon> i think regressions should really be must 14:19:50 <sgordon> and flagged as blockers 14:20:08 <ovirtbot> 14[[07OVirt 3.2 release-management14]]4 !10 02http://wiki.ovirt.org/w/index.php?diff=4692&oldid=4691&rcid=4807 5* 03Mburns 5* (+45) 10/* MUST */ 14:21:02 <sgordon> have we had any more discussion around what is actually required at feature freeze? 14:21:03 <mburns> add attached to the release tracking bug 14:21:10 * sgordon is angling for an actual list of features that made it... 14:21:37 <mburns> sgordon: i think that's a reasonable request 14:21:53 <oschreib> mburns: do we have a tracker bug already? 14:21:58 <mburns> oschreib: not yet 14:22:03 <oschreib> I'll create it 14:22:09 <sgordon> the problem last time was we had an abundance of feature pages but no way to determine which ones were actually finished 14:22:29 <sgordon> itamar did his best to give me a list but even that contained question mark items 14:22:46 <quaid> are we using the "move the feature page to a [[Category:Feature finished]]" method? 14:23:08 <sgordon> quaid, that is what i was thinking yes - a little more onus on the feature owners confirming where they are up to 14:23:20 <quaid> +1 14:23:51 <sgordon> doesnt have to be much more than that, most of the pages were quite thorough in explaining the actual feature 14:23:57 <sgordon> just couldnt tell whether they were done or not 14:24:06 <mburns> step 1 is getting feature pages created 14:24:52 <mburns> #action mburns to work with maintainers to get feature pages created 14:25:01 <mburns> do we have a template feature page anywhere? 14:26:01 <sgordon> mburns, http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Detailed_feature_template 14:26:12 <sgordon> and, http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Feature_template 14:26:15 <mburns> #link http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Detailed_feature_template 14:26:21 <mburns> #link http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Feature_template 14:26:27 <sgordon> not sure why there are two 14:26:31 <sgordon> that should be consolidated 14:26:59 <mburns> yes, i'll look at them after the meeting 14:27:26 <mburns> ack on moving to a finished category... 14:27:39 <sgordon> they are pretty similar, the detailed one just expands on what should be in the description 14:29:07 <mburns> ok, anything else we want to look at from a release criteria perspective? 14:30:28 <mburns> ok, moving on then 14:30:49 <mburns> #topic sub-project status -- node 14:31:03 <mburns> #info new ovirt-node 2.5.2-0.1 posted last week 14:31:17 <mburns> #info this includes new vdsm build to work around the nfs issue 14:31:50 <mburns> #info as for 3.2 -- we're working on some new features (some captured on the release page) 14:32:25 <mburns> #info most work is behind the scenes to make things more stable/reliable/extensible 14:32:50 <mburns> #topic sub-project status -- vdsm 14:33:00 <mburns> #info new vdsm build posted to work around the nfs issue 14:33:08 <mburns> danken: fsimonce: any other updates?
