Rydekull is interested in learning about Gerrit. I think this is great, because our Gerrit knowledge across this team is scant - it's mainly Itamar who maintains it.
Itamar - what do you think about doing some knowledge transfer about Gerrit to the rest of the Infra team? We could have a special meeting/sprint on IRC to teach the basics, show how our setup is run (which helps us get it better documented), talk about future plans, and so forth. As Alexander is new, it would be good to figure out non-root things that can be done. Such as:
* Improve "as-is" documentation. * Write up standard procedures (SOP) for dealing with Gerrit. * Review the scripts, backup procedures, how Jenkins interacts, etc., and suggest or build improvements. * Work on the Puppet manifest for the future Gerrit host. * Etc.
How does that all sound to folks?
I would certainly be interested in such a session(s).
