i recently added some more detail and want to make stuff is land on the right days

10:09
|

|
poelcat: added snapshots
|
10:09
|

everything seems OK, although I'm a bit dubious about snapshot1 coming just 2 days after the Beta release
|
10:09
|
| jeremy

agreed
|
10:10
|
| poelcat
|
f13: that might be a mistake... I can drop that one
|
10:10
|
| f13
|
yeah, I'd prefer we drop that one
|
10:10
|
| poelcat
|
and final devel freeze is 30-sept which I had wrong on the wiki version
|
10:10
|
| jeremy
|
poelcat: it's not a mistake if you lookat how it falls out. it's just something that might not make much sense (distractions, etc)
|
10:10
|
| poelcat
|
f13: will do

anybody unhappy with the snapshot additions (minus removing snapshot 1)?

|
f13: snapshot#1 might be right after beta release, but it is more than 2 wks after the beta freeze.
|
10:15
|
| f13
|
so the spins have been up for a couple weeks.
|
10:15
|
| f13
|
jlaska: while that's true, trying to get a snapshot staged, and actually into people's hands two days after beta releases is going to be tough.
|
10:15
|
| f13
|
jlaska: also, it'll likely take more than a week to stabalize after all the hidden updates flood rawhide post-freeze
|
10:16
|
| f13
|
anywho, back to topic.
|
10:16
|
| f13
|
I haven't seen any reports good/bad on the spins. I suggest we ping the spin owners and ask for a go/nogo on upgrading the "beta" to "final" for those spins.
|
10:16
|
| f13
|
jwb: would you be able to take this back on?
|
10:16
|
| * jwb nods
|
10:17
|
| jlaska
|
f13: that will drop the total number of snaps to 3 ... should we instead keep 4 and push out a week?
|
10:17
|
| mether
|
f13: the only that I have significantly tested along with others is Xfce. It should be ready to go
|
10:17
|
| nirik
|
it's worked fine for me here in my testing as well (The Xfce)
|
10:18
|
| jwb
|
these are the F9 spins right?
|
10:18
|
| jeremy
|
f13: sounds good to me
|
10:18
|
| mether
|
yes
|
10:18
|
| jwb
|
k
|
10:18
|
| f13
|
jlaska: I can create a snapshot that friday for "internal" testing, I just don't want to muddy the public waters by pushing it out there.
|
10:18
|
| jwb
|
we need to talk about the F10 spins soon
|
10:18
|
| poelcat
|
jwb: yes... i'm confused on what to do w/ the feature pages... they are stuck in my queue
|
10:19
|
| f13
|
what spins have been proposed?
|
10:19
|
| jwb
|
i've not seen any come into rel-eng yet
|
10:19
|
| f13
|
and are they ready for us to review/vote? (essentially would they be ready for FESCo if they were other features)
|
10:20
|
| f13
|
wait.
|
10:20
|
| f13
|
lets move that topic later, after we get through the tickets.
|
10:20
|
| jwb
|
k
|
10:20
|
| jeremy
|
which, speaking of spins for f10 -- the live image configs are moved as of today (mail forthcoming when I get to it) to the spin-kickstarts repo rather than being in livecd-tools itself
|
10:20
|
| f13
|
jwb: can you update/take ownership of ticket 24 once more?
|
10:20
|
| jwb
|
yes
|
10:20
|
| f13
|
ok, moving on.
|
10:20
|
| f13
|
well. that was silly, no other tickets there.
|
10:21
|
| -!- f13 changed the topic of #fedora-meeting to: Fedora Release Engineering - F10 Beta
|
10:21
|
| f13
|
I need to create the various action tickets for the Beta release.
|
10:21
|
| f13
|
the process started today with a heads up mail to fedora-devel-announce warning people of hte freeze, requesting people be careful with risky changes from here on out, and to do some beta readiness checking.
|
10:21
|
| f13
|
I'm going to be producing full trees again (once we have a working anaconda) to see where we are with things that failed in Alpha, and to look for regressions
|
10:22
|
| f13
|
this will be a blocking freeze, so we need to make every effort to have as short of a freeze as possible, which means putting in time now, rather than after the freeze
|
10:22
|
| f13
|
as far as schedule goes, I don't necessarily have any immediate reasons to adjust the beta schedule, but I've asked sigs/groups/feature owners/etc... to reflect upon where their area of interest is at right now, and if more (reasonable) time would be useful.
|
10:26
|
| f13
|
Fesco/board et al meet this week and should also consider any schedule changes.
|
10:26
|
| f13
|
anything further on Beta before we move on to spins?
|
10:27
|
| wwoods
|
F10 feature window closing. You know what that means: F11 feature window opens
|
10:28
|
| wwoods
|
heh
|
10:28
|
| f13
|
right, I hinted at that.
|
10:28

|
yeah but we just need to remember to get that across for the inevitable complaints about how we maliciously dropped pet-feature-X
|
10:29
|
| jwb
|
so poelcat you have F10 spins feature pages?
|
10:29
|
| wwoods
|
but yes. move on,.
|
10:29
|
| f13
|
poelcat: you mentioned you had some spins in your queue, are any ready to be presented to releng?
|
10:29
|
| jeremy
|
as I said above, kickstart configs for default spins have now moved
|
10:29
|
| f13
|
or do you need info from releng about what makes them "ready" ?
|
10:29
|
| f13
|
jeremy: this is good. Where would I attach myself to get change notifications of this repo?

10:32
|
| f13

poelcat: "ready for FESCo" works for me
|
10:32
|
| jwb
|
poelcat, use the same criteria you would with actual Features
|
10:32
|
| f13
|
rather "same criteria you'd use to decide a normal feature is ready for FESCo"
|
10:32
|

|
just send them to rel-eng instead
|
10:32
|
| poelcat
|
okay
|
10:33
|
| poelcat
|
so, yes, I believe these are all ready
|
10:33
|
| f13
|
ok.
|
10:34
|
| * f13 goes to look at the first one.
|
10:34
|
| jwb
|
i'm confused
|
10:35
|
| jwb
|
why are they debranding the whole spin?
|
10:36
|
| jwb
|
# Needed for spin debranding
|
10:37
|
| jwb
|
sed -i -e 's/Fedora/Generic/g' /etc/fedora-release
|
10:37
|
| jwb
|
that seems unnecessary if they've gotten Board approval...
|
10:37
|
| jeremy
|
but it's needed prior to approval
|
10:38
|
| f13
|
this also seems like just desire to get releng/board approval on the trademark, not to actually have us produce the spin.
|
10:38
|
| jwb
|
why are we reviewing spins that don't have Board approval
|
10:38
|
| f13
|
jwb: what's the proper order of approval?
|
10:39
|
| jwb
|
Board, Spins SIG, Rel-Eng
|
10:39
|
| jwb
|
yes?
|
10:39
|
| f13
|
jwb: releng has to sign off on it technically, board has to sign off on it politically
|
10:39
|
| jwb
|
kanarip, ping?
|
10:39
|
| f13
|
one would think it starts as low as possible and works up, rather than the inverse.
|
10:39
|
| jwb
|
then Spins SIG would be the first stop
|
10:39
|
| kanarip
|
jwb, pong

10:39

| f13
|
kanarip: question on the ordering of spin approvals
|
10:40
|
| jwb
|
kanarip, for Spins... what is the order of approval?
|
10:40
|
| kanarip
|
i just dropped a big note with a couple of exclamation marks to the spins list about the beta freeze
|
10:40
|
| jwb
|
kanarip, should spins get approval in this order:
|
10:40
|
| jwb
|
Spins SIG, Board, Rel-Eng
|
10:41
|
| jwb
|
or?
|
10:41
|
| kanarip
|
we as a sig are going to have to sign off on spins technically, they need board approval for trademark usage, then they can become features under the regular FESCo procedures
|
10:41
|
| jwb
|
well, except FESCo delegated that last step to Rel-Eng
|
10:41
|
| jwb
|
so seems Spins SIG, Board, Rel-Eng
|
10:41
|
| kanarip
|
in this case, I can imagine FESCo will ask rel-eng/spin sig about anything related to releasing/spin concepts in that order?
|
10:41
|
| kanarip
|
let me link you to the thread...

ok, Education spin, I like it in general, I want to be clear on what it should be named (label of the iso and the name of the .iso file both)
|
10:47
|
| kanarip
|
Education Math please
|
10:47
|
| f13
|
also, I think if we're going to produce it, it should be mentioned in the release notes, and the documentation should be "why would somebody use this spin".
|
10:47
|
| f13
|
I'm going to make these notes on the discussion page.
|
10:47

f13, agreed

|
| mether
|
how is the educational spin related to http://wtogami.livejournal.com/27610.html
|
10:47
|
| f13
|
otherwise (given the spin sig's pre-technical approval) I give this a +1
|
10:47
|
| warren
|
mether: not related at all
|
10:48
|

mether, it's not?

mether, something different entirely
|
10:48

ok
|
10:48
|
| jwb

+1
|
10:48
|
| kanarip

warren, care to submit that to the spin sig nonetheless? ;-)
|
10:48
|
| warren
|
I suppose I could.
|
10:48
|
| kanarip
|
warren, at the very least it'll give you a central repository to maintain the kickstart in
|
10:48
|
| kanarip
|
warren, that is, if you're not going for all the formal approval and releasing and all that
|
10:49

any other thoughts about the education spin?
|
10:49
|
| f13
|
spot: jeremy: votes ?
|
10:50
|
| f13
|
wwoods: you too, any qa thoughts?
|
10:50
|
| jeremy
|
the education spin could use a little bit of thought on naming just to avoid questions about how it overlaps with, eg, ltsp
|
10:50
|
| wwoods
|
bluh. the test plans are terrible.
|
10:51
|
| kanarip
|
jeremy, +1, that's why its education-math.ks, to be named "Education Math" as well
|
10:51
|
| jeremy
|
kanarip: yeah, the feature page is the main place where the confusion exists I think
|
10:51
|
| wwoods
|
I'm gonna need to ask some pointed questions in the Talk: sections of those pages, I think
|
10:51
|
| kanarip
|
i'm not sure where i can document this properly but i've discussed it with the maintainer on-list, fwiw
|
10:52
|
| f13
|
wwoods: are you willing to accept it as a featured spin of F10, provided you can work with them on the test plan?
|
10:52
|
| wwoods
|
mostly "what exactly are you doing" and "how are you doing it" and "who is doing this 'cuz it's not me"
|
10:52
|
| kanarip
|
jeremy, ok, /me dropping a note to the maintainer
|
10:52
|
| * spot is +1
|
10:52
|
| jeremy
|
but it's reasonable to me in general, so +1
|
10:52
|
| wwoods
|
assuming that the owner is willing to accept responsibility for testing (or designate a tester), sure
|
10:53
|
| f13
|
ok.
|
10:53
|
| wwoods
|
I'll totally help work out a good test plan but we do not have the resources to test spins, nor would I be real happy about releasing untested code
|
10:53
|
| f13
|
poelcat: Decision: releng approves the Education Math spin as a featured spin for F10. Feedback has been and will be provided in the feature page
|
10:54
|
| kanarip
|
wwoods, this is one of the things they kinda accept as well as being on the receiving end of bugs for the remainder of the lifecycle
|
10:54
|
| kanarip
|
it's implicit acceptance though, not explicit
|
10:55
|
| wwoods
|
kanarip: exactly. I want explicit acceptance of that fact
|
10:55
|
| f13
|
poelcat: also, once the tracker bug has been created for this feature, can we list said bug in the feature page?

regarding educational spin
|
10:56
|
| warren
|
My live image right now is almost 1GB without all the educational apps installed.
|
10:56
|
| warren
|
It kind of makes sense to do both in the same image
|
10:56
|
| warren
|
but it is going to get freaking huge.
|
10:57
|
| f13
|
warren: size might not matter if they're running on lab machines
|
10:57
|
| warren
|
And maybe it is not a good idea to do both in the same image
|
10:57
|
| warren
|
because there are a lot of users who want LTSP without the edu stuff.
|
10:57
|
| f13
|
live images are just convenient as a medium to deliver
|
10:57
|
| f13
|
ok, lets move on to the next spin.

f13: in this case live ltsp server is convenient as the easiest way to install it
|
10:58

| jwb
|
i need to bail for another meeting. as for XFCE and Games, i think both are probably OK but the pages need updating...
|
10:58
|
| jwb
|
only 10% done?

is there a todo for these spins?
|
10:58

|
f13: nod
|
10:58
|
| f13
|
kanarip: can you expand upon that question?
|
10:59
|
| kanarip
|
well, with 10% completion you'd think a Games SIG has a little todo list of things yet to do, but it's not on the feature page
|
10:59
|
| f13
|
ah.
|

Release alpha and beta releases in sync with Fedora 10 Run the Xfce spin through the QA team basic set of tests on i386 and x86_64 platforms Work with Fedora QA to ensure that we have sufficient coverage
|
10:59
|
| f13
|
seems the Games spin suffers from a bad cut/paste job.
|
10:59
|
| f13
|
mether ?
|
10:59
|
| f13
|
it's also missing punctuation
|
11:00
|
| f13
|
(nitpicky)
|
11:00

kanarip: maybe https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/GamesSpin#Dependencies ?

f13: someone else is taking over. I will pass him the wiki page for updating it.
|
11:01
|
| kanarip
|
f13, yikes, nice todo list ;-)
|
11:01
|
| mether
|
basically we will reuse most of the ks file as it is for Fedora 10 too
|
11:01
|
| mether
|
adjust the package content a bit but thats all
|
11:01
|
| f13
|
* Test plan is woefully lacking information, as well as a cut/paste job from another feature. Links to QA tests would be good since you seem to indicate that there are some known.
|
11:02
|
| f13
|
* Contingency plan should list all the places documentation about this spin should be removed in case we don't do it, so that we don't advertise a non-available spin.
|
11:02
|
| f13
|
those are the two feedback items I have already
|
11:02
|
| f13
|
other than that, I +1 this spin (though I hate the size of it)
|
11:03
|
| mether
|
games are large. not much to do about that
|
11:03
|
| kanarip
|
other then maybe splitting some -server packages out
|
11:04
|
| f13
|
nod
|
11:04
|
| jeremy
|
+1 with f13's things
|
11:04
|
| mether
|
kanarip: yes, posted to list, I will be filing bug reports
|
11:04
|
| kanarip
|
mether, yeah, i know, i'm dropping a mail on fedora-games to wake people up as well
|
11:04
|
| wwoods
|
same - +1 with previous todos
|
11:05
|
| f13

|
11:05
|
| kanarip

mether, sure
|
11:05
|
| f13

well, everybody that has responded seems in favor. We'll approve this spin.

User Experience should probably substitute "matches" with "rivals"
|
11:08
|
| f13
|
unless it's intended that XFCE will look like gnome, instead of being integrated with itself like gnome
|
11:08
|
| f13
|
other than that I have the same feedback as the last spin, and give it a +1
|
11:08
|
| jeremy
|
+1
|
11:09
|
| kanarip
|
meaning, you need extension / updates to the feature page, right?
|
11:09
|
| f13
|
right
|
11:09
|
| f13
|
jwb also approved this spin
|

I'm wwoods, and I approve this spin.

f13: xfce default look is intended to be just the same as gnome more or less. same theme, icons, background etc
|
11:13
|
| f13
|
now that we have a set of spins approved for F10, should we produce them for Beta and put them on the torrent?
|
11:13
|
| f13
|
seems reasonable to me, and can be done in parallel with the other composing
|
11:13
|
| * jwb peeks in
|
11:14
|
| jwb
|
yes. otherwise, what's the point of having them track via Feature pages?
|
11:15
|
| kanarip
|
seems reasonable enough to me, but i'm wondering what happened to developer and electronic-lab?
|
11:15
|
| kanarip
|
did i miss out on something or are they lacking feature pages or anything?
|
11:15
|
| kanarip
|
*that you know of?
|
11:15
|
| jwb
|
kanarip, i've not seen pages for either
|
11:15
|
| kanarip
|
right
|
11:15
|
| mether
|
kanarip: nobody created one.
|
11:16
|
| kanarip
|
argh, as well btw
|
11:16
|
| mether
|
there is a fedora electronics list if one wants to reach them
|
11:16
|
| f13
|
mether: where 'theme/icons/backgrounds as gnome' you mean the ones Fedora sets for the Gnome desktop, not upstream gnome?
|
11:16
|
| mether
|
f13: not upstream. Fedora customization
|
11:16
|
| mether
|
Nodoka got ported and is the default Xfce theme
|
11:16
|
| mether
|
within Fedora
|
11:16
|
| f13
|
note that we should probably set an upper limit on how many spins we create, space considerations compose/test/sync considerations and such
|
11:17
|
| f13
|
mether: gotcha, that could be made more clear in the documentation/release-notes/etc...
|
11:17
|
| mether
|
alright, I will clarify that. Kinda assume that was known somehow
|
11:18
|
| f13
|
mether: maybe if you already know what xfce is or intimately involved in the spin. Casual users or first timers wouldn't.
|
11:18
|
| mether
|
right, i understand that. I will expand the docs section
|

jeremy: spot: warren: thoughts on producing spin images for torrent for beta?
|
11:19
|
| f13
|
jwb: think you might have time to do spin image creations for the beta?
|
11:19
|
| warren
|
the spins we talked about in this meeting?
|
11:19
|
| jeremy
|
definitely should
|
11:19
|
| jwb
|
f13, if mmcgrath can get the guests up, yeah i think so
|
11:20
|
| f13
|
jwb: we still have compose-x86
|
11:20
|
| spot
|
seems sane to me, unless the responsible parties want to wait for some reason
|
11:20
|
| jwb
|
just one?
|
11:20
|
| f13
|
warren: and any others we approve before the Beta freeze
|
11:20
|
| f13
|
jwb: there was also test3, not sure if we still have that
|
11:20
|
| jwb
|
f13, maybe the requirements for the spin host have changed since i did it last...
|
11:20
|
| f13
|
jwb: it can all be done from an x86_64 host
|
11:21
|
| f13
|
unless we want to do live ppc images.
|
11:21
|
| jwb
|
i thought we needed x86 and x86_64, both running rawhide with SELinux in permissive?
|
11:21
|
| f13
|
nope, setarch is your friend.
|
11:21
|
| warren
|
Fedora 10-based Live LTSP Server definitely wont be ready for beta.
|
11:21
|
| jwb
|
f13, ok. so is compose-x86 what you are doing the regular composes on?
|
11:21
|
| warren
|
well... I might be able to get it working, but higher priority items like actually getting new mkinitrd code done before beta...
|
11:22
|
| warren
|
I might not make it.
|
11:22
|
| kanarip
|
f13, test3 was down last time i checked
|
11:22
|
| f13
|
jwb: I'll be doing shadow composes there, as well as on reducto internally
|
11:22
|
| f13
|
kanarip: ok, that's fine.
|
11:22
|
| jwb
|
f13, and the SELinux setup is right?
|
11:22
|
| f13
|
jwb: I do believe it's set for permissive
|
11:22
|
| f13
|
if not, we can adjust as necessary
|
11:22
|
| kanarip
|
which is right
|
11:22
|
| jwb
|
cool. if i can't get to the machine for some reason, i'll figure it out
|
11:22
|
| f13
|
k
|
11:23
|
| f13
|
jwb: we should take that for a test drive this week, ensure the spin ks's are in working order.
|
11:24
|
| f13
|
kanarip: Can the spin sig coordinate on a branch or a tag to use for the Beta, so that we have something stable to pull from, but won't block further work?
|
11:24
|
| f13
|
(in the spin-kickstarts git repo that is)
|
11:24
|
| kanarip
|
f13, yes we can
|
11:25
|
| f13
|
ok.

|
11:25
|
| f13
|
we're 25 minutes over, I know, but it was good to get through the spins we had.
|
11:25
|
| f13
|
kanarip: yeah, either a branch or a tag, either works for us on the pulling side.

f13, awesome, a branch will allow me to delete the spins you do not have approved to compose
