    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/opendev-container-maintenance
    • Continue to update services with dedicated users.
    • Upgrading Zookeeper
    • Upgrading MariaDB
    • Eventually convert MariaDB container's from uid 999 to something that makes more sense on the system.

    • https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/gerrit-upgrade-3.5
    • http://lists.opendev.org/pipermail/service-announce/2022-May/000039.html Scheduled for 20:00 UTC June 19, 2022
    • Need to explicitly enable conflict checking
  • Manually triggering periodic jobs (frickler 20220531)
    • What is the correct process for manually triggering periodic jobs?
  • Zuul changing default Ansible version to v5 soon (clarkb 20220531)
    • Now that Zuul supports Ansible v5 the next step is to default to v5
    • Need to send an announcement for the default change in OpenDev happening at the end of June.
  • Removing Ethercalc (clarkb 20220531)
    • Announced removal date was May 31, 2022
    • Last call before clarkb proceeds with this cleanup
  • Enable webapp on nodepool launchers? (frickler 20220611)
    • Would help with checking for image freshness / builds failing
    • Also look into pushing stats into grafana?
  • Run a custom URL shortener service (frickler 20220611)
    • Many people use bit.ly or similar in IRC channel topics and elsewhere
    • https://opensource.com/article/18/7/apache-url-shortener shows an easy solution that could be git-based
    • Should be easy to with some new DNS record on static.o.o
    • Data could be managed in a single file (maybe in project-config) or one file per URL

• Open discussion
