The taiga setup is being run and managed by their developers as a
service for fedora. This is letting the infra team concentrate on infra
tasks instead of managing yet-another service. It also lets us help fund
the development and upkeep of another open source project which is a
nice bonus.

We have things working, but the intent is to soft-launch the service
with the Fedora Council and a few small groups to sort out what we'd
like the flow to look like, and for us to validate the examples and
documentation. Once we've had a chance to do this, we'll open it up to
everyone. I know folks are eager to use the new setup but we want to
make sure it's done right.

Sorry for the inconvenience and we hope to have you using it soon.

+1. Reducing compose time is at the top of several of my lists.

Fedora Infrastructure manager change

2018-01-17 Thread Jim Perrin
Hello  Fedora developers,
I know some of you may not be familiar with me[1] unless you’re also
working with CentOS or EPEL, but I’d like to take this opportunity to
introduce myself a bit more formally on the list.

As of 1 February, I’ll be the reporting manager for the Fedora
Infrastructure Administration team, and the Fedora Infrastructure
Applications team[2], as well as the CentOS engineering team internal to
Red Hat.  For the most part, this is a Red Hat internal organizational
change that doesn’t really impact anything in the community. Paul
Frields set a good example of being transparent with the community, and
I want to continue that with this transition. Paul won’t be going too
far as part of this transition, as he’s taking a promotion of his own,
and I’ll be reporting to him as part of the new structure.


This is a fantastic group of people, and I’m excited to be working with
them. There will be a bit of transition time as Paul and I work through
the team organization and update the wiki to reflect the changes, but
you’ll probably be seeing a bit more of me around here.
You may now return to your regularly scheduled mailing list.

Ending development of Hubs

2018-06-07 Thread Jim Perrin
Earlier in the year, the Fedora Infrastructure team had a hackathon.
Among other work during the event, we made adjustments to app
development and ownership to keep the team working efficiently. For
example, we retired the separate Jenkins instance in Fedora
infrastructure since it’s redundant.

We also decided, after discussion around the team and with the FPL, to
cease active development of Hubs. This was a difficult decision but
allows the team to put more effort and resources into supporting our
core applications. The code for Hubs will continue to live here and of
course it remains 100% free and open source: https://pagure.io/fedora-hubs

I realized we did not publicly state the end of the development for
Hubs, so I’m correcting that oversight with this announcement. I’m proud
of the work the team has done on Hubs over the years while trying to
balance multiple priorities. However, with limited time and resources,
it’s more important that the Infrastructure team focus on core tasks
that support the Fedora community such as development, automation and
testing.
