Hi everyone, At the Mitaka design summit in Tokyo we had some corridor discussions about doing a mid-cycle meetup for the purpose of continuing some design discussions and doing some specific sprint work.
*** I'd like indications of who would like to attend and what locations/dates/topics/sprints would be of interest to you. *** For guidance/background I've put some notes together below: Location -------- We have contributors, deployers and downstream consumers across the globe so picking a venue is difficult. Rackspace have facilities in the UK (Hayes, West London) and in the US (San Antonio) and are happy for us to make use of them. Dates ----- Most of the mid-cycles for upstream OpenStack projects are being held in January. The Operators mid-cycle is on February 15-16. As I feel that it's important that we're all as involved as possible in these events, I would suggest that we schedule ours after the Operators mid-cycle. It strikes me that it may be useful to do our mid-cycle immediately after the Ops mid-cycle, and do it in the UK. This may help to optimise travel for many of us. Format ------ The format of the summit is really for us to choose, but typically they're formatted along the lines of something like this: Day 1: Big group discussions similar in format to sessions at the design summit. Day 2: Collaborative code reviews, usually performed on a projector, where the goal is to merge things that day (if a review needs more than a single iteration, we skip it. If a review needs small revisions, we do them on the spot). Day 3: Small group / pair programming. Topics ------ Some topics/sprints that come to mind that we could explore/do are: - Install Guide Documentation Improvement [1] - Development Documentation Improvement (best practises, testing, how to develop a new role, etc) - Upgrade Framework [2] - Multi-OS Support [3] [1] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/oa-install-docs [2] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/openstack-ansible-upgrade-framework [3] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/openstack-ansible-multi-os-support -- Jesse Pretorius IRC: odyssey4me
