[14:43:37] meffie joins the room
[15:02:14] wiesand joins the room
[15:02:37] <wiesand> hello
[15:04:33] <mvita> hi, be right with you...
[15:05:30] <mvita> present
[15:05:39] <meffie> good day
[15:07:36] <wiesand> I figure we won't have Ben today ;-)
[15:07:45] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> Well, only for about twenty minutes
[15:08:44] <wiesand> Ah, hi Ben. Congratulations on 1.8.0alpha1
[15:08:59] <meffie> yes, thank you.
[15:09:09] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> Thanks.
And thanks to everyone else who put in time to make it happen
[15:09:40] <wiesand> So while we have Ben: what do you all think should go into 1.6.20.1?
[15:09:47] <wiesand> sierra is already merged
[15:09:52] <meffie> i've started bugging sites to run it in test cells.
[15:09:53] <wiesand> Linux 4.9 of course
[15:10:19] <wiesand> what about re-enabling "shake harder"? is that for a .1, or rather for 1.6.21 ?
[15:10:29] <wiesand> or leave it to 1.8.x?
[15:10:59] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> I don't think re-enabling shake-harder in a .1 makes sense
[15:11:09] <meffie> agreed.
[15:11:13] <wiesand> what about those little fixes in the "16201-cand" topic?
[15:11:20] <wiesand> fine
[15:11:33] <wiesand> (no shake-harder in 1.6.20.1)
[15:11:36] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> It could probably go in a 1.6.21, since we did have it on 1.6 for a
bit.
[15:12:03] <meffie> maybe we can uncover more bugs ;)
[15:13:01] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> The 16201-cand things all look find just from the subject line :)
[15:13:15] <wiesand> NB two of Anders' "misleading indentation" fixes couldn't be pulled up - the problems weren't present in 1.6 ;-)
[15:13:44] <meffie> hmm.
[15:14:40] <meffie> thanks for checking. i just assumed they were all pre-existing indent problems.
[15:15:35] <wiesand> Anything else that should go into 1.6.20.1?
[15:16:24] <mvita> nothing - unless you want to wait for the Linux 4.10 merge window to close…. ;-)
[15:16:44] <wiesand> no...
[15:17:27] meffie leaves the room
[15:17:32] meffie joins the room
[15:17:56] <wiesand> So I'll merge the Linux 4.9 changes, and whatever from "16201-cand" gets positive review later today, adapt the NEWS change, and that will be 1.6.20.1 (and I'll try to get it out tomorrow).
[15:18:10] <meffie> ok
[15:18:40] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> adapt the NEWS change, what does that mean?
[15:18:56] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> Oh, you have 12486 already
[15:19:04] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> I had missed that somehow.
[15:19:10] <wiesand> Remove things marked [TBC] we just decide3d not to ship yet
[15:19:31] <wiesand> yes, that one
[15:20:17] <wiesand> Do you want me to push it to master first? ;-)
[15:21:19] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> I thought about it, but maybe we should just incorporate those notes
into the 1.8.0 entry
[15:23:42] <meffie> btw, kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9, i failed to find your 'afsd -exit' patch. (I tried to find it with apt-cache source openafs)
[15:24:41] <wiesand> Technically, what's in 12486 should already be mentioned in NEWS on master…
[15:25:01] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> meffie: maybe you were doing so from a jessie box that doesn't have a
systemd unit file :(
[15:25:22] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-k5-afs/openafs.git/tree/debian/patches/0003-Add-dummy-exit-command-for-afsd-to-do-nothing.patch
[15:25:45] <meffie> ah, thank you.
[15:25:48] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> Though we converted afsd to indexed parameters for 1.8 so the patch
from the 'experimental' branch is more appropriate.
[15:26:32] <meffie> i have a stack of non-urgent afsd patches that i have to finish and push to gerrit.
[15:27:39] <wiesand> More to discuss while we have Ben here?
[15:27:45] <wiesand> (or at all?)
[15:28:03] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> test test test!
(Also review review review)
[15:28:14] <mvita> okay okay okay
[15:28:17] <mvita> ;-)
[15:28:55] <meffie> building 1.8.0 rpms as we speak.
[15:29:27] <mvita> this is my last release-team meeting until next year, so merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and happy holidays to everyone
[15:29:30] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> I'm sure someone will pop up and ask for a 1.8.0pre1 srpm fairly soon
if one does not magically appear in a discoverable place.
[15:29:48] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> Have fun!
[15:30:02] <wiesand> Thanks Ben!
[15:30:18] <meffie> i'll put one up on /afs/sinenomine.net/
[15:30:43] <wiesand> Is it made from src/packaging/redhat in the tree?
[15:30:45] <meffie> thanks
[15:31:03] <meffie> yes
[15:31:17] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> Oh, and the debian build got through the NEW queue and into
experimental overnight, which is exciting
[15:31:43] <wiesand> Ah, good.
[15:32:04] <meffie> nice. btw, where is the script "make_www_release" ?
[15:32:16] <wiesand> openafs-tools.git
[15:32:27] <meffie> thank you.
[15:32:37] <wiesand> I'm using a hacked up version
[15:33:09] <wiesand> Tried to get the changes into git a while ago, but the very first one was ignored completely, so I gave up.
[15:33:18] <meffie> i sort of feel like making some improvements to www.openafs.org <http://www.openafs.org> over the holidays to go along with the new release.
[15:34:04] <wiesand> You dislike the appearance of the release pages as much as me?
[15:35:03] <meffie> well, we have a lot of low hanging fruit.
[15:36:08] <wiesand> actually, it's just git.openafs.org/tools.git
[15:36:17] <meffie> oh, thank you.
[15:36:36] <wiesand> anyway, I'll mail you what I'm currently using
[15:37:19] <meffie> thank you
[15:37:49] <wiesand> which is by no means perfect either...
[15:38:48] <wiesand> Anything else to discuss today?
[15:39:25] <wiesand> Mark: Happy Holidays!
[15:39:40] <mvita> thanks!
[15:39:46] <mvita> you too!
[15:40:11] <wiesand> I'll be here next week ;-)
[15:40:35] <wiesand> If probably lonely...
[15:40:57] <wiesand> Anyway, I guess we're finished for today? Adjourn?
[15:41:14] <mvita> yes
[15:41:14] <meffie> yes, have a good evening.
[15:41:25] <wiesand> Thanks a lot everyone!
[15:41:30] wiesand leaves the room
[15:41:33] meffie leaves the room
[17:23:35] <kadukoafs@gmail.com/barnowlE45450E9> re "misleading indentation" on 1.6, maybe it would be better to do a
build using a compiler that complains about it, in case there are
1.6-only issues.
