Hi Eyal,

Have a few questions.

I've not used Gerrit so far - I am assuming that patches are same as changes and using this api call - http://gerrit.ovirt.org/a/changes/?q=status:open
Do I need to pull the changes from all projects?
Is there anything I need to check other than the "updated": date stamp to scan for activity?

Thanks,
Vishnu

Hey Vishnu,
You can take this one [1]
which is to write a script that will use gerrit.ovirt.org api to scan for old patches
and alerts or abandon them according to criteria.
you can commit the script to the jenkins repo [2], under scripts dir.
(btw. there is already an initial python script there you can use or refactor if you want).

you'll need to login to gerrit.ovirt.org 1st and provide your public SSH key to get read access for it.
once that script will be ready, we'll guide you how it can be added to jenkins.ovirt.org as a job using the jenkins job builder
syntax.

is that something that you'll be interested in doing?
and thanks again for pitching in!

Good luck

Eyal.
