Hi! If anyone is looking for a limited-scope infra project to get more familiar with OpenStack Infra, I have a suggestion:
Gerrit-powered meetings agenda Currently people modify a wiki page and some other people (me) are subscribed to page changes and manually reflect them in a Google Calendar, which can be downloaded/imported as .ics. This is extremely error-prone and quite time-consuming. The idea would be to let people propose Gerrit changes to a simplified YAML description of the meetings, and have *that* produce a .ics file on merge, and publish it to an accessible URL. We'd also publish a human-readable meetings list somewhere (to replace the wiki page). The format of the YAML file would limit errors (all times in UTC, limited set of event repetition options etc.) and be much easier to manipulate than raw iCalendar. There is a icalendar Python module that can be used to write .ics but you still need to learn about that file format. Bonus points for testing for room occupation conflicts automatically pre-merging! This one has been sitting at the bottom of my TODO list for quite a while, so I figure I should let someone else have a shot at it: I think it's a great way to visit a number of aspects of OpenStack infra & development: gerrit, check tests, merge jobs, docs publication... all in a small package ! Let me now what you think, -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) _______________________________________________ OpenStack-Infra mailing list OpenStack-Infra@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-infra
