Release meeting agenda / notes Apr 18 2019
- TSC approved (by consensus) the release plan option without Dist Cloud
- Chosen option updated on release plan in google docs
- Action: Ghada to update release dates on Release Planning Wiki: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/StarlingX/Release_Plan
- Execution / Delivery time!
- Patch Elimination Update:
- NUMA live migration patch backport should complete within 1-2 weeks. We have a f/stein.X branch that will be re-branched when 1) new content is merged to upstream stable Stein or 2) we backport additional code.
- Status of other long poll items?
- Went through all the features and updated the status.
- See: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HUwbsaSerzFRuvXVB_qvoGdI0Chx1YiiA2WYHwvIoYI/edit#gid=405844719
- Test team not covered (Ada/Numan are out). Will get an update in the next community meeting.
- Release plan proposal for PTG
- Brucej: Want to move toward continuous integration - want to catch more bugs and do more testing at code check in time.
- would like to move toward more frequent releases with less excitement :)
- Significant challenges in doing builds and running system level tests - need some creative thinking
- Need to make a distinction between the type of release we are delivering
- Release with foundational changes
- Like stx.2.0 which introduced support for containers and containerization openstack
- Lessons from stx.2.0: Under-estimated the complexity and the scale of the changes and the time/effort it would take to test it
- Release with a number of smaller indepdent features
- This would be more deterministic to align on time-based releases moving forward
- For stx.3.0, we feel this will be the case.
- Need to plan in more automation and CI/CD pipe-line work
- Issue with having systems out in the public
- Leverage virtual env testing
- Bugs
- We want to do a scrub of the stx.2.0 bugs. Schedule in the release planning meeting for May 9 or later.
- Ask the domain owners to do a pre-review and make recommendations
