CinderVictoriaMidCycleSummary

Introduction

At the Victoria (Virtual) PTG we decided to hold two mid-cycle meetings, each two hours long. The first meeting would be before the Cinder Spec Freeze, and the second would be around the New Feature Status Checkpoint. So the mid-cycle meetings will be the week of R-16 and the week of R-9 (so as not to conflict with Kubecon, which is happening at R-8).

Session One: R-16: 24 June 2020

We met in BlueJeans from 1400 to 1600 UTC.

Cinder Project Updates

New os-brick releases for stein (2.8.6) and train (2.10.4) have happened to address Bug #1883654 (fix for OSSN-0086 not working on Python 2.7). There have been some gate problems holding up the cinder releases containing the new os-brick libraries; train (15.3.0) should happen today, and stein (14.2.0) soon.

You can keep track of what's been released by looking at Launchpad:

• https://launchpad.net/cinder/+series
• https://launchpad.net/os-brick/+series
• https://launchpad.net/python-cinderclient/+series

I'm looking for a volunteer for the position of "release czar" for Cinder. You don't have to be a core contributor, you just need to be a responsible and active member of the Cinder community. Ping me in email or on IRC if you are interested in finding out more.

We agreed to try the experiment of a monthly video meeting; it will be at the regular weekly meeting time on the last Wednesday of each month (and we'll make adjustments as necessary as conflicts arise). So the first one will be 29 July. We'll take a poll about what videoconferencing software to use.
