[ovirt-devel] sync meeting - Vdsm 2.2

[Dan Kenigsberg]

(nir, piotr, danken)

- splitting supervdsmServer:
  I think that its a good idea, and that https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/52875/ is a good start.
  It would give a nice separation of responsibility, and may serve as a
  "teaser" for how Vdsm's public API can be broken apart.

  Nir is worried that it would introduce instability for no immediate gain,
  while distracting us from solving the supervdsmServer memory leak, or
  possible security concens

- schema conversion: Piotr presented his https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/52864/
  which would convert the json-based schema into a cleaner yaml-based one,
  which would be easier to version, validate, and obsolete.

- Nir was unhappy with recent changes to the contrib client:
  https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/q/status:open+project:vdsm+branch:master+topic:jsonrpc-client
  would prefer using standard stomp client

- name discussion is stalling. some people are worried that a rename may
  turn out to be expensive (release engineering, outher packages,
  interal module and function name). Still, it would be fun to foresake
  the non-pronounceable name "vdsm". ovirt-hostd seems like a front
  runner at the moment.

- Nir has advocated trying to use https://trello.com/b/U3lsbVRU/maintenance to
  maintain the list of our pending tasks. Let's try.

Ciao!
