Description

1.22 Release Team Meeting for May 12th, 2021

A

Okay, um hi everyone today is may 12th week three of the uh 1.22 release team meeting. um We abide by community scout of content, which means be nice to each other into yourself, and this meeting will be recorded and available in the youtube so be mindful of whatever that you say all right.

A

I am going to go ahead and share my screen once I figure out how to do that, I always get confused.

A

Whenever I have to do that, okay, probably I'm sharing the right thing. So just let me know whenever you see my screen.

B

Yep we can see it.

A

Perfect, um thank you last week. Well, we had uh some other shadows saying hi um this week we would go um um we'll call each team and whoever didn't get a chance to say hi, please say hi and introduce yourself and whoever introduced, and if you want to say hi again, don't be shy, just um you can you can say it whatever that, like.

B

I guess I can go first.

A

B

A

I only call out the team so that it's easier that way um to know that which team you're from and absolutely.

B

A

You I just have one um update before I call everyone, so we I created a meeting triangle for europe and apac, and the uh four link is on the agenda. uh I also shared it uh with the road leads and I will put it on uh singularities uh in a bit. uh Please feel free to fill in your availabilities.

A

This meeting is gonna heavily focus on uh the um it's gonna be friend, it's gonna. The meeting time is focused to be friendly for a fact and you. So if you need more slots, feel free to reach out to me, I will add in more snots and we will accommodate this is an optional meeting and it gives a chance for everyone to participate, say hi and be in touch so um add in your availability, and uh we will kickstart that, probably next week sometime, um anyone has got any questions on that.

A

All right, I'm gonna, move on so first up is enhancements james. Would you like to introduce your shadows.

C

Sure uh so, very briefly, my name is james. My pronouns are he him um and I'm the enhancements lead for 122.? um Do you want to go through the update in the spreadsheet as well, or is it just fine written as it is there.

A

Oh, please go ahead.

C

Yeah I mean the the highlight is that we have presently 77 enhancements tracked for 122, which is a huge amount. I think it's more than we've ever had at this stage, even just before enhancements freeze um for any release, certainly based on the spreadsheets I've looked at for the previous ones, previous releases. So that's that's pretty big um of those after third 26 are already complete for enhancements, freeze uh and the further 49 are various stages at risk and two have already been removed.

C

So it's going pretty well, I think I've marched as green, because we've reviewed all of them, which is something I really want to highlight- is that the uh whole enhancement team has done a lot of work in order to get everything reviewed. So I really want to shout out to them uh speaking of them. Actually, um I think they were all on the call on the previous time, but if people would wish to reintroduce themselves, please feel free to do so.

D

Here I'll go, my name is ray. I've been part of the release team since 118. I was the docs lead for 1.21. um First time on enhancements such as shadow and my in my professional life. I worked for susa by way of rancher labs.

E

I'm xander, I I think I introduced myself last time but say hi again. um This is my third time on the release cycle previously with communications and uh yeah. This has been a lot of fun, a wild number of enhancements, uh so it should be a super, exciting release.

F

Hi, my name is sabria. um I work for a startup called bitmax, and this is my first time in the release team. Thank you for having me and I'm enjoying it. Thank you.

G

Hi, my name is grace. I'm a computer engineering student at waterloo, my pronouns she her- and this is my first time contributing.

H

I am joseph sandoval and I've been with the release team since 119, and I was on the enhancement team before and I'm on it again, and this is really exciting to be part of this, because we, I can't believe we keep growing every time and uh just my pronouns are he him and el. Thank you.

C

All right, that's all of them, so thank you much uh one other very tiny detail to mention enhancement, freezes tomorrow. It's you know pretty minor, um but uh yeah. That's it for me. I think.

A

Thank you james and thank you team. um Thanks for working really hard getting everything reviewed, welcome, new members and hi to returning members.

I

Hey folks, I'm new to uh my name is krishna khilari pronounced he him day, currently work for amazon web services. This is my first time here um in release team shadang. Thanks for the opportunity and nice meeting, you all.

A

Welcome krishna, um and I really like uh that everyone uh telling their pronouns uh it really helps. So we will make it a point for next time that we put, we can put it right next to our names of people, don't mind it's easy um and uh makes our community more interesting.

A

Any questions for enhancements team or for.

J

James, when are the folks meeting for uh the enhancement updates like we have this enhancement liaisons right are like. Are we suppose, I'm part of the enhancements liaison for sea gaps? I'd like to know? uh Is there a regular cadence where you folks meet.

A

C

A

Go ahead, james.

C

um So if the enhancement team as such doesn't have uh distinct meetings, we had an onboarding session last week, where we talked through kind of our process and how we, how we do things and changes for 122.

C

um we've mostly been communicating over slack in terms of enhancement liaison. um We we do have the list of of all of the enhancements on from from laurie. So if you're pretty much the hardest in october, um loosely speaking, I think all of us on all six of us on the ends of this team have been assigned some um some of the cigs and those that have liaisons are those enhancement. Team members are aware for the sigs that they are assigned if they have liaisons.

C

So you should be able to speak directly with with the people um that list of like that, like mapping of who's assigned to what isn't written down anywhere, it's something we did we did kind of internally. I can share that. If that's useful, um you should have been reached out to. If, if you haven't been, then we can, we can fix that.

J

uh Sure that will be great, perhaps I'll, bring you on slack james. Thank.

C

You sure, okay.

A

Any any questions for um any more questions for the ancient team.

A

Moving on uh max is not gonna be there. So if um the shadows like to introduce themselves that we wait and if anyone wants to present the update, they'll be awesome as well.

K

So I introduced myself last time, but I guess I could reintroduce myself hi, I'm anna, my pronouns are she here and I'm shadow in ci signal uh it's my first recycle and first contribution to kubernetes. So I'm excited to be here um yeah and uh if I remember correctly, someone uh there, there were two of us on the last time, so I guess other shows not. Everyone has introduced themselves yet.

L

Yeah, I wanted to say hi again I am ralph martinez. I am a shadow with anna in cie signal. He is my first contribution to kubernetes. I am very excited to start contributing with you.

A

All right can anyone if there are any more shadows from the team who likes to say, would like to say hi.

M

uh Hi I mean I I don't know if I should say hi anymore, because I have been a member of the release family for a long time on and off and well I'm veronica, I'm uh sorry. How do we say our pronouns? um She her?

M

um I will be shadowing adolfo on branch management, but I have been a release manager associate for, I think for a year already um yeah. Since um my I don't work on the kubernetes space on my day-to-day in, like my day job my my progress here has been slow but steady, but yeah, I'm very happy to see so many new faces and I'm so eager to contribute.

A

Alright, I'm so happy to have you here. I have seen you and release management space, but it's really great to interact um all right so that any of these guys, anyone from the signal team can speak uh to the status.

K

Yeah, so the I can, I can approximately read what's in the document, so there are some flakes of invasive blocking and mastering forming, um but nothing super critical. We are investigating. Those also one thing is that the um open stack uh conformance tests are running uh from master, informing, are running infrequently and are failing.

K

So this is something that will also we need to investigate um in coming days or weeks. um That's right! This last update we spent this week, uh like all of us, were on boarding to ci signal team. So we went through the process of creating um issues for and checking if tests are failing or flaking or what is going on. So we also found some flakes uh during that onboarding, but yeah. That's that's. That was update.

A

This awesome, um thank you for the update anna um and, if anyone has any questions for the cia signal team.

A

All right, moving on to bactriage manner,.

N

Oh okay, hi everyone. um um I have my team presents on this meeting. So if you want to introduce yourself christoph, you can go first.

O

Okay, then I go first. My name is christopher. I'm from hanover germany, I architected implemented and operated kubernetes based systems, since queen is one nine, I'm also giving trainings from time to time as part of my day job as a consulting company, um I co-founded at the beginning of this year.

O

This is my first time contributing to such a big, um open source project like this. I'm super excited to see all these new faces, learning about your structures and the organization of this project, so yeah looking forward to work with you. Thank you.

N

um Okay, so um gavin.

P

Hi everybody, I think I introduced last time. My name is gavin ray. I am a software engineer at equinix pronouns. Are he him? This is going to be my first release cycle with the kubernetes project. Super excited to be here. I've been using kubernetes since the pre 1.0 release, so I'm looking forward to contribute back to the community. That's given me so much.

N

Thank you, taylor.

Q

Hi yeah, I am uh taylor travaro a pronouncer he him. um This is my first uh time joining kubernetes release team. So uh I'm excited uh yeah, that's it for me. Thank you.

N

R

I am tony uh my pronouns: are he him I uh during the day I work at uh adobe um as an sre on the east coast of the us. I was involved with the release team for 120 and coms, and I'm also very excited to get going with enhancements here in 12.2.

N

So um status, oh, I didn't introduce myself sorry guys. uh My name is nina mosley, I'm a software engineer at souza. um This is my third release. I was uh shadow in 120 and 121..

N

um So um for today's status we have we're green still too far from good freeze, but um as of uh enhancement freeze, we will start uh tracking the issues and the prs that are in this milestone.

N

uh We don't have anything to worry about only one critical, urgent issue and one critical, urgent, vr, uh so yeah for we're bringing for today.

A

Thank you welcome um everyone uh from uh from the create book triage team. uh Does anyone have any questions.

A

All right, um moving on to dogs with victor.

S

Hi, uh this is victor. I'm a software engineer. I'm the docs lead for this release. I was previously uh dubshadow in 121.

S

I work for a small company. I would like to give an opportunity to the members in my team to introduce themselves if, if they can.

T

Oh hi, oh hi, this is suretu uh I'll, be working with victor as a shadows dog like dark shadow. I work at vmware and this is my first time contributing to kubernetes. Thank you so much looking forward to work with you all. Thank you.

U

Yeah, I'm chris negis also doc shadow. I work at amazon web services as an open source writer. Prior to this, I spent a long time at red hat and also wrote a bunch of books on linux.

S

Cool, thank you. I think that's it. uh If I'm not mistaken, so for the update. uh For last week we had the onboarding sessions for uh the shadows. uh We also made sure that everyone has access to the enhancement sheet and so on. Everyone has access to to the kubernetes org.

S

um For now the we did the first uh integration sync 4k website. uh For now the integration branch is healthy. We are provisionally tracking 66 enhancements that will require docs. This probably will change with with you know, enhancements being moved out of the out of the milestone and so on, um and basically we're just we're waiting for for enhancements free. So so we can start pinging enhancements owners and and tell them to open uh placeholder pr's for okay website.

S

A

I I have one question regarding that: so don't so the docs placeholder pr deadline comes after code fees right.

S

uh Yes, that's correct july 9th, if I'm not mistaken,.

A

All right, so this uh pinging is just a friendly reminder, or is it like you're going to say about the deadline, I'm trying to understand the process because we changed it the last time and I think we started pinging after code uh deadline passed. So um it's a little confusing. I'm just trying to understand it.

S

I don't think we're, so I had sort of the same question last last: release we're probably not gonna kick any enhancements out because they didn't open that, but uh we need to make sure that that they open those prs at least to to be able to review them, or you know to to have them to know basically which which enhancements need docs right now we we had an opt-in process, so we kind of have an idea which is pretty good. It was. It was a good uh good thing to be implemented, um but it's not.

S

I don't know. I don't think it's gonna be a super hard line, uh hard deadline. um If we, if we have problem with github, we will reach out via slack on that on that freeze on that freeze date to enhancement donors.

A

Sounds good. Thank you. Thank you for clarifying, so this is like more like proactively reaching out. um That makes sense, and the um again, I'm gonna say close to christian for coming up with the opt-in idea. Thank you. um Thank you. Team welcome youtube and chris uh does anyone have any questions for the dog's team.

A

All right, moving on to release note cover bubble is not um well uh said that he won't be able to make it to this meeting. So if there are any shadows from the uh release, notes, team and you'd like to say five, please feel free to.
