|---|---|---|
| * poelcat present | 13:02 | |
| rdieter | here | 13:02 |
| jwb | here | 13:03 |
| * wwoods almost here | 13:04 | |
| * jeremy is here | 13:04 | |
| f13 | heh | 13:05 |
| f13 | I'll give it a few more minutes | 13:05 |
| * wwoods here | 13:10 | |
| f13 | well, we're in a holding pattern for Fedora 8 now. | 13:11 |
| f13 | It's going to mirrors, torrents are in progress | 13:11 |
| f13 | I made the bugzilla entry today | 13:11 |
| f13 | and later this afternoon I hope to get a push of F8 updates(-testing) done and drop the mirror-manager redirect | 13:12 |
| lmacken | f13: just unlocked F8 in bodhi, so the requests will now show up in the list. | 13:13 |
| wwoods | cool. how many 0-day updates are we looking at right now? | 13:13 |
| lmacken | 170 | 13:13 |
| wwoods | phrreeow. | 13:14 |
| poelcat | youch | 13:14 |
| wwoods | that's updates-testing day 0. how many of those have actually requested a push to stable? | 13:14 |
| lmacken | 68 stable | 13:16 |
| lmacken | 97 testing | 13:16 |
| lmacken | which means there are 5 not submitted | 13:16 |
| * lmacken is thinking about making updates get auto-submitted to testing.. and still allow people to push right to stable. | 13:17 | |
| f13 | lmacken: or just nag mail for things unsubmitted | 13:18 |
| lmacken | that would work too.. but with the cli doing a single command would be nice, instead of create, then submit. | 13:19 |
| f13 | yeah | 13:21 |
| f13 | So, post f8 stuff. | 13:29 |
| -!- f13 changed the topic of #fedora-meeting to: Post F8 | 13:29 | |
| f13 | We have the new development cycle to implement | 13:30 |
| f13 | mostly that means changing the Overview page and making sure the new schedule follows suit | 13:30 |
| f13 | We also wanted to do an s/development/rawhide/ on the mirror | 13:31 |
| wwoods | right | 13:31 |
| wwoods | and probably s/devel/rawhide/ in bugzilla versions | 13:31 |
| wwoods | We talked before a little bit about giving releases names at the start of the cycle | 13:33 |
| EvilBob | Wasn't there talk of dropping the "rawhide" name? | 13:34 |
| jeremy | EvilBob: back in FC1, yes | 13:34 |
| wwoods | I think mostly we just haven't been clear on the fact that 'rawhide' *is* the internal codename for the new product | 13:34 |
| jeremy | EvilBob: we're going back... what's old is new and all that :) | 13:34 |
| EvilBob | ;^) | 13:34 |
| rdieter | retro rawhide | 13:34 |
| mdomsch | rawhide++ | 13:37 |
| wwoods | f13: so F9Alpha, F9Beta, F9PR1, ... F9 | 13:38 |
| wwoods | (PR1 subject to change) | 13:39 |
| wwoods | how are those going to be numbered? 8.91, 8.92, 8.93, ... 9? | 13:39 |
| f13 | yes. | 13:39 |
| wwoods | so pre-Alpha rawhide will be.. 8.90? | 13:40 |
| f13 | I thik that's what I set it for | 13:40 |
| f13 | but if we are going to change development/rawhide/ I have to update it again anyway | 13:40 |
| wwoods | I remember seeing a couple of exchanges like: "do you have the development repository enabled?" "no, I'm not doing software development, I just want to run rawhide" | 13:41 |
| f13 | yep | 13:42 |
| wwoods | are we going to change the repo file name? | 13:42 |
| f13 | hrm, good question. | 13:43 |
| f13 | we probably should | 13:44 |
| f13 | but... that may leave folks in an odd lurch | 13:44 |
| wwoods | oh, true. how do we determine the initial state of the 'rawhide' repo? it should match 'development' | 13:45 |
| f13 | not only that, but introducing a new file, and removing an old one, will keep the old one around, maybe as .rpmsave though | 13:46 |
| wwoods | I have a feeling the window for a change like this is open right now but closing rapidly | 13:47 |
| rdieter | doit++ | 13:47 |
| f13 | yeah, we'd have to announce now and give folks some time to prepare. | 13:48 |
| f13 | (read mirrors) | 13:48 |
| wwoods | I'd like for skvidal / notting / jeremy / etc. to weigh in on this before we start changing things | 13:48 |
| wwoods | would we change the name of the dir on the mirrors too? | 13:48 |
| * rdieter wants T-shirts: LIve 'n die by rawhide, livin la vida rawhide | 13:48 | |
| f13 | I'd like to do this in a way that we don't make the mirrors have to resync everything. | 13:48 |
| f13 | wwoods: yes. | 13:48 |
| * skvidal reads up on what I'm weighing in on | 13:48 | |
| f13 | wwoods: it doesn't make sense to do this half assed. | 13:49 |
| wwoods | we can change the name of the repo, the *filename* of the repo, and the bugzilla version | 13:49 |
| wwoods | without touching mirror layout | 13:49 |
| skvidal | ah, okay | 13:49 |
| f13 | wwoods: but then the baseurl for rawhide points to development/ | 13:49 |
| skvidal | so we're changing things to say 'rawhide' everywhere | 13:49 |
| skvidal | are we going to manually [re] move those files in %scriptlets or are we counting on rpmnew/rpmsaves? | 13:50 |
| jwb | for "continuity" reasons | 13:50 |
| wwoods | f13: right, well - that's a little odd but I don't think we're going to change package CVS f'rinstance | 13:50 |
| wwoods | so there's some things that aren't going to be changing from 'devel' to 'rawhide' | 13:51 |
| wwoods | the baseurl is more user-visible than that, though | 13:51 |
| f13 | skvidal: I was going ot count on .rpmsave | 13:52 |
| skvidal | okay so we're just nuking the file in fedora-release | 13:52 |
| f13 | skvidal: the new file would be fedora-rawhide.repo so there /shouldn't/ be something to .rpmnew | 13:52 |
| f13 | skvidal: yeah, introduce new repo file in fedora-release, change bugzilla entry, change url on mirrors(potentially) | 13:53 |
| wwoods | where else have we called rawhide 'development'? | 13:53 |
| skvidal | do it - throw up a flag on blogs + mailing lists + the update notices (if any) | 13:53 |
| f13 | so yeah, making these changes early next week seems apropos | 13:56 |
| f13 | any other thoughts about this? I'll send up some proposals. | 13:56 |
| wwoods | yeah, make some proposals so we can get other people to find places we might be forgetting about | 13:57 |
| GeroldKa | hi all | 13:58 |
| f13 | ok, any other business to bring up? | 13:58 |
| wwoods | If there's stuff that should really be handled in 0-day updates, let me know | 13:59 |
| wwoods | we need to prioritise F8Target but I'm not sure there's time to go through and actually set pri/sev on them | 14:00 |
| wwoods | and people monkey with those anyway | 14:00 |
| f13 | yeah | 14:00 |
| f13 | well, attacking what's going to land in updates and updates-testing would be good, once they land that is. | 14:00 |
| wwoods | yeah, use bodhi to karma the important stuff that's there and bug people about what isn't | 14:00 |
| wwoods | or just give me bug IDs and I'll track it, since that's probably what I'll be doing for the next few days | 14:01 |
| f13 | ok, anything else? tummy monster needs to be fed. | 14:01 |
| wwoods | F8Target is still 126/391 open | 14:01 |
| wwoods | :/ | 14:01 |
| * wwoods done | 14:01 | |
| f13 | ok, meeting over. thanks all. | 14:02 |
