PTL and TC Interaction Summary
We discussed about what are the challenges faced by a new contributor in OpenStack and what steps we can take to help improve the process. Some of the difficulties discussed are:
- Gerrit interface isn't very intuitive
- Devstack errors are not easy to debug and resolve: Cinder team didn't mandate installing devstack for Outreachy contribution this time which improved the contribution significantly.
- OpenStack requires more devops/linux-style knowledge than many other OSS projects
There is a crash course for learning linux concepts

2023.1 (Antelope) Retrospective
What was good?
- Added a new core -- Jon Bernard
What was bad?
- Delaying of RC1 and RC2 due to certain fixes
What should we stop doing?
- Someone mentioned that they don't like the recent practice of adding reviews to the meeting agenda, but on the other hand, it does get them some attention
- Keystone has "reviewathon" on Fridays. They separate managing bugs/reviews and doing reviews in a meeting. - We also have "festivals", but not every week.
- It would be good to have more people joining
- It was also mentioned that we should have a meeting where people can bring their own patches for reviews (not specifically XS)
- There was a concern regarding driver patches taking time for third party CI to respond and patches keep waiting even after CI passes
- we can discuss about their CI status and if not reporting, we can flag and warn them to fix it
What should we continue doing?
- Festival of XS reviews
- once-a-month video team meeting
