Minutes:
- Unstable CI in upstream Collectd blocking upstreaming
- Patches failing in CI which were unrelated to CI failures and vice versa
- Making patch to pass CI seems to be random
- We need access to CI to fix issues
- Only Florian and tokkee (sebastian harl) have access right now and we need to share the load
- Currently Marc Fournier has only change access but cant approve other's patches
- Sunku to reach out Sebastian to respond on CI email thread
- Matthias asked to add Fabien (aka faxmodem) and/or Matthias to add & approve others
- One person from Intel would volunteer
- How best to share these minutes
- Use wiki to document these calls
- If there are troubles logging in to or using wiki, contact Matthias
- Minutes in wiki will be sent to the collectd mailing list
- Copy paste the URL for this webex call, capture date and time for next meeting
- Collectd meetup
- Matthias is bit hesitant that we don’t have enough topics but agree with below
- To accommodate folks traveling from far, 2 days would help.
- If we finish early we could do hackathon or categorize PRs, etc.
- Dates are dependent on octo's availability at this point as his presence is very important
- If key people (like octo) don’t show although we are making our efforts to make this happen, community might have to look in to forking or other alternatives
- Whats theside effect of forking ->
- If the fork becomes active with bug fixes, PRs, etc, then it will be used
- Need to figure out ramifications of fork for downstream
- Sunku to reach out to tokkee about octo
- Please add your name to the meetup if you are interested
- 5.11 release
- Then we could have 5.11 release, currently CI is blocking random patches to make them to master
- List of issues to be reviewed for 5.11 -> https://github.com/collectd/collectd/milestone/17
- We are seeking community help to close on this
- With current situation, 5.11 would take atleast end of January or later
- Matthias has agree to find sometime to go through open PRs and approve as he is the only active contributor that has these permissions
- Hope to have more approvers decided by the meetup
- To really help the community, please go through open issues and help review
- End user working group
- Having a call might help
- But not sure how this could be done, need to experiment with this
