Kubernetes Release Team Meeting for 20230714

A

Hello, everyone welcome to today's APAC release team meeting today's Friday, the 14th of July.

A

um We are kind of in the mid, mid cycle, mid area of the release for 1.28, and my name is Leo I'm, the EA for 1.28 and let's get started. Also. Please remember this is a community meeting, so it's falls under the cncf code of conduct, which can be summarized to be excellent to each other.

A

Let's see um feel free to add yourself to attendees list I sent a link in chat. So let's look at another one another time so preset yourself, all right. Let's go to the open discussion items does not look like there's much just a general shout out as always to the um to retrospective. So next week we will have another meeting on Wednesday next to the regular release team meeting where we talk about the Retro. So basically we will talk about all those points, as you see, there's not that much yet. So um please look over.

A

uh Like recap, your last weeks and months and just.

A

A

Hello, can you can you hear me.

B

A

Just checking, if you are you saying something or am I unable to hear okay.

A

um Maybe your audio is not working or something all right. Let's continue, um so please look into the retrospective.

A

And add your application items.

A

Are there any new attendees I'm, not sure? Is there anybody who would like to introduce themselves.

A

Otherwise, let's continue, let's jump to the team updates. Is there somebody from enhancements.

A

Otherwise, I think right now, I mean we are past, the enhancement freeze. So all the enhancements which go into the release cycle are opt-in, so we um know which ones to track, and this is kind of the major milestone for the enhancements team. So I think we don't like require like a big update. We don't expect like any major issues from this point on so last time on Wednesday, which was just two days ago. We got green update, so that's also what we expect 60 tracked ones, that's good.

A

Let's jump to the next one CI signal.

A

Someone from CS signal rounds.

A

Otherwise I saw there was like some discussions about no. This was like a different team.

A

Okay, we're going green update, John, that's good.

A

Quickly check the project board, so we have one failing, but this is kind of an old one as it seems and they still give green updates. So that's good, so everything seems to be all right.

A

Moving on to Black triage.

A

Somebody from back trash who would like to give an update.

B

um Yes, I can give you an update and no blockers login issues. We have a few issues in our risk, but we are conducting them.

A

All right all right, yeah, so the further we kind of move on in the release cycle the more we need to keep attention because, especially with the rc0, so the release candidate cuts, which happen right after code freeze so a week. Also after code freeze, we need to be careful that, like all the major issues which are open are resolved because these Cuts we use them to kind of check if everything is all right. So.

A

But it's good that you are tracking all those.

B

A

You put this to Green.

A

Is there somebody from docs who would like to give an update.

A

A

A

Would you like to add something to the update you hear me? Yes, it's it's a little bit hello, um I.

B

A

B

Sorry, I'm from the enhancements too. No thank you.

A

Would you like to add something to the update.

A

B

Thank you, um I'm. Okay,.

A

Okay, let's move on then um is there somebody from dogs, I, don't think so right.

A

So let's go down cat given yellow updates. We have 26 caps with no dog peers it. The deadline is next week. Oh that's, okay, reach out to those cap owners again as a reminder. So, for example, I think this is like a good point again for the Retro. We talked about this quite a few times.

A

It's it's a little bit difficult um need to bring this up next week. Let's see projects enhancements.

A

A

I need Docs.

A

But there's some shows even more that they're, not that they need dogs all right, um so I think I will check in the docs Channel and get an update from them.

A

It's like yellowish.

A

All right moving on to release notes.

C

So that the current status of release, which is green, the release in which website PR for Alpha 3 has been yours and thanks a lot to the release, team and John. uh The PRS for the alpha 4 will be equated in a couple of days and regarding the major thing collections uh we had reached, we had reached out to all the sigs as well as we have paint a couple of decisions by tracking them via the enhancement ports, so yeah, that's all from the release notes. Thank you.

A

All right, very good here, yeah I, saw I, saw this discussion about this um PR, which was I, think we couldn't merge it for I, think three weeks or so. So it's great that it's already now merged um awesome. Moving on to comms, there's nobody from comps here right, so I will go check. The last update, which is green, placeholder PRS for seek storage, apps and infra, created.

A

Going to release Branch management there's also nobody here in this call, but I assume it's green- the status. Yes, nothing to report getting ready for code freeze on July, 18th and beta0 yeah, so July 18th next week. This is like the next major event for all of us, um a lot of deadlines and things related to all our teams are kind of connected to the state.

A

um It's also very busy time for Grace to basically check all the um exception, requests and so on so I think next week will be a very interesting update next Wednesday and for now everything is green, which is great from my side.

A

I don't have an update either other than that that we have next week. Code freeze- and we have next week to Retro. So next week is a bigger bigger week for for the release. Team Grace also didn't put anything here so I think with this we are good.

A

um Is there anything you would like to talk about before we close the call.

A

D

Hello, hello, everyone, hello, I'm, audible, yes,.

A

I can hear you.

D

So hello, everyone, hello, Leo uh I- am then I'm the new one in this meeting. So I am an engineering student in computer science and currently I am the kubernetes uh official member and sick dogs in the localizations uh maintain another reviewer and I just really wanted to get involved with the release team and how all the ecosystems walks. So I am really interested to work with this team. So how can I get involved? Could you please uh have some something some overview.

A

Right so there's the regular application window for for the shadow um release theme so as a shadow, this will open up basically after each release cycle. So right now, if you look at the timeline.

A

A

A

So we target like the 18th of July of August, so you can expect that after that, maybe a week or two weeks so end of August, probably is a good uh like estimation when we will publish the shadow applications, um so you can apply there, but you can obviously also just jump in the regular sick release meetings if you're interested in how to release sick release works.

A

So this repository here is just like all the governance and how the team works in the documentation for, for example, the release Cycles, how we work in the release team, but there's another repository which is kubernetes release and there are actually a bunch more whether this is like the main one for release engineering. So, if you're more interested in, for example, how we assigned images in the recycle and release process, there's like a lot of tools here, which we use the main one is Krell, which is a CLI.

A

So the branch management is using this CLI to kick off jobs in Google Cloud, where we have the resources running so, for example, you can just check here. Maybe there are some issues.

A

um Where help is needed, otherwise, you can also just jump in the secret lease meeting and see what they talk about. Usually like every meeting or every couple of meetings. There is like like a general project and they need for help Helping Hands and it's always like a good uh opportunity to Shadow somebody. So, for example, I don't know if at all, for some somebody else from the team is picking this up. You can just Shadow him and just observe the process in the release theme.

A

There's there's also some things to do, but usually entangled by the Shadows, because we have like such a bigger team. I would say um so I think in sick release. You have more opportunities to collaborate.

D

Yeah, so thank you for giving me the overview Leo. It's really appreciated, actually I just applied two times in the dark shadow, I think yeah Dark Shadow, but I got rejected unfortunately, but now I'm trying to get involved in the meeting which is which is about to happen every Wednesday. If I am not wrong right.

A

Yeah, it's it's every Tuesday at the meeting Securities meeting and the release meeting is on Wednesday and Friday, and eventually we will also have one on Monday, but it's basically just shaped like this one, where we give updates from each team. So it's we don't talk about like feature enhancements. That I can detail. Usually all right is there anybody else who would like to talk about something before we end the call.

A

Why is it stop the recording.
