Hello, Highlights from this week: - release process improvements and coordination - currently ad-hoc email threads and #ceph-backports IRC channel - works well for David, but we did have a couple of instances of false "good to go" where some fixes intended for release were not in yet - want to give a heads up that the release is happening sooner - Yuri will email dev(a)ceph.io a week before locking the branch and starting validation - the team will keep track of upcoming releases in the CLT pad [1] - urgent release-related queries or concerns should go to clt(a)ceph.io - issues with generating release emails and blog posts - cephadm backports are done in batches, individual PRs are not listed - generated html requires manual edits - should be resolved with moving off WordPress - being able to release from a hotfix branch to avoid branch juggling - remains on David's list, Loic is interested too - upcoming releases - 16.2.4, 15.2.12 and 14.2.21 hotfix releases (rgw and dashboard) - also https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/50347 for 16.2.4? - 15.2.13 release to be frozen in two weeks - final 14.2.z release in June, nautilus is almost EOL! - scrub of Ceph project on the tracker - almost complete, what is left are mostly doc tickets and build/packaging related issues for various distros - also issues that turn up in testing where component is not clear - need to triage these during regular bug scrubs - Ceph Month June event - include 20-30 minutes updates from component leads - CFP closes today, schedule to be posted on May 19th - new ceph.com site - static markdown (yay!) - need octopus-themed artwork, don't want generic stock imagery [1] https://pad.ceph.com/p/clt-weekly-minutes Thanks, Ilya
