Repo layout. We really need to make the call by Tuesday 2012/7/24.
by Robert Middleswarth 23 Jul '12

23 Jul '12

The current repo layout will have to change some to support the 3.1 release that might be happening on the 25th. We are going to have to move stuff around to archive the 3.0 release as well as setup the 3.1 release in my option we can do it one of two ways. 1) Create an archive folder and just copy 3.0 to it well we do the 3.1 release and keep the same structure we have now. 2) Redo the layout to something that will long term support version and be less confusing to people using the project. Personally I think this is a good time to redesign. The existing 3.0 repo files are going to break when we move things around for the 3.1 release and we are going to need to make sure everything is in place. Since we are going to have to disrupt thing already why not do a full clean-up instead of just patch the current layout. Our current layout. release/[stable|beta|nightly]/[binary|fedora|RHEL|src]/[16|17|18] I recommend we switching to the following structure. release/[3.0|3.1|3.2|stable|testing]/[nightly|beta|released]/[tools|fedora|RHEL|src]/[16|17|18|rawhide] With symlinks for stable and testing point to the current version for each. I also suggest a symlink called release/fedora-ovirt-latest.rpm that points to the latest ovirt-release-*.rpm file. Inside each version there will be a repo file that enables released disables beta & nightly. Since each repo file will simple reference everything by version number each new release wont break old releases. What does everyone think? Thanks Robert

Maintainers list

17 Jul '12

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm asking the following people if you are interested in being a maintainer of the Infrastructure project. You are under no obligation to accept this request. I'm inviting you because you've shown continuous interest, helpfulness, and capability. But I know we are all busy, and sometimes the mark of a good leader is to know when to say no to a leadership opportunity. Just let me know if you'd like to be an Infra maintainer or not: * Mike Burns * Eyal Edri * Itamar Heim * Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden * Robert Middleswarth * Ofer Schreiber * Karsten Wade In addition, I'd like to invite Moran Goldboim to be the first person to join us as a candidate for becoming a maintainer. Moran has been doing infra work behind the scenes, so is only known to a few of us, and he has recently expressed interest in being an Infra maintainer. We haven't defined how to become a maintainer ... yet ... but when we do, Moran can be the first person to go through the process, if he's interested. :) Thanks - Karsten - -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFQBF0U2ZIOBq0ODEERAtc8AJ92WVcuHPwLfzKdr3rm2BmhSFuO7QCdEbsD 9OxdnzGN5qS8cptPFPBR/Jk= =/I2H -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Meeting minutes
by Dan Kenigsberg 17 Jul '12

17 Jul '12

Today we did have a meeting, and discussed the following points: - We need a volunteer to extend vdsm's on-commit hook, so it runs functional tests to. This requires installing vdsm.rpm as well as vdsm-tests.rpm, starting vdsmd service, running the tests, and cleaning the host. Robert M. suggested that we ask infra@ for help in writing and maintaining this test, so here I am, CCing infra(a)ovirt.org. - Saggi is planning a C API library, exposing gobjects, with a rest bridge (or whatever) for client applications. I'm slightly appauled - I prefered the simpler idea of API.py and REST binding, with which C/whatever clients can interact. - Adam documented the current xmlrpc api, with all its pecularities and horrors. Prefers to keep it as a single document; I think it would be easier to maintain if definition that are specific to an API call sit on top the function definition. It would be harder to forget to update one of them when you change the other. Admitedly, it requires some sed preprocessing in order to extract a single human-readable document out of this scattered info. Saggi votes for Adam. - deepakcs: i just posted VDSM hook example for exploiting native qemu-glusterfs options from VDSM. Wanted to know feedback onthe same and alternative approach - Saggi asks to ping qemu folks about the feature of specifying the full qcow chain BZ#750801. We need it to reduce repository complexity (currently we play with symlinks). - Federico: storage domain v 3 , requires bleeding-edge upstream engine and sanlock. http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Storage_Domain_Versions - probably more stuff that I've forgotten... please reply with more info See ya all! Dan.

Propose / Plan to move the wiki from www.ovirt.org/wiki to wiki.ovirt.org and add a redirect so the old links works.
by Robert Middleswarth 15 Jul '12

15 Jul '12

I propose we move the wiki from www.ovirt.org/wiki to wiki.ovirt.org and add redirects to www.ovirt.org/wiki Why this makes since. It will make it easier to break up the site into 2 servers at some point. Including quaid idea of using openshift. Before we make a change like this I would like to hear from everyone if they think this is a good idea and if you see any issues I am missing? Thanks Robert

Repo structure and the upcoming 3.1 release.
by Robert Middleswarth 14 Jul '12

14 Jul '12

With 3.1 pending release we should think some about the structure of the repo's and how we are going to handle the 3.1 release.and the retirement of the 3.0 builds. I think it would be bad to keep the 3.0 builds in the F16 folder. But I also don't think we should remove the folder either. This is the time to ask questions. 1) Do we want to make any changes to the layout? 2) How do we want to handle older versions? 3) Do want to keep the beta's around after the stable is moved to 3.1? For now I suggest we do the following. 1) After 3.1 is released we move the stable 3.0 F16 builds in to archive/3.0/f16 off the release folder. 2) Reserve Nightly for Jenkins builds of 3.2 3) clean out the 3.1 beta's Until we are ready to start testing 3.2 Does anyone else disagree with my idea's? Does anyone else have what the feel is a better plan? Thanks Robert
