ARs from Previous Meetings - Concern about Starlingx Reviews with too many reviewers - e.g. https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/tools/+/897100 - unclear if we have the Gerrit Review process documented for StarlingX ... which would include such recommendations as what reviewers to include on Gerrit reviews - Greg to check with Ghada on whether this is currently documented or not. - No there are no explicit guidelines regarding the max number of reviewers. - opendev Code Review guidelines: - https://docs.opendev.org/opendev/infra-manual/latest/developers.html#code-re... - https://docs.openstack.org/contributors/code-and-documentation/using-gerrit.... - StarlingX Contributor Guide / Code Submission Guideline - https://docs.starlingx.io/contributor/ - https://docs.starlingx.io/developer_resources/code-submission-guide.html - Action: SteveG volunteered to work with the doc team to update the current StarlingX code submission guidelines for this topic - Status: Open - SteveG found existing useful information that can be referenced in the StarlingX code submission guide; will work w/ the doc team to update the StarlingX docs - Dec 20 - Needs a new owner - any volunteers? - Jan 3 - SteveG is continuing with StarlingX, so will wait for an update from him on this item - Jan 10 - SteveG is still away - Jan 17 - SteveG is back and will continue to drive this action
