Agenda 


    * 

Commitment (GPLv2 Cure) 
        * Email and Patch 
        * [amarts] 20+ people already have done +1. Will wait another 15days before any action on this. 
        * AI: Send a reminder to the lists and get the changes merged around next maintainers meeting [Amar] 
    * 

GD2 testing upstream 
        * Is there a glusterd v1 Vs v2 parity check matrix? 
            * Functional parity of the CLI 
        * As the cli format is not 100% compatible, how to proceed further with regression tests without much fuss? 
            * [amarts] Easier option is to handle it similar to brick-mux test. Create a new directory ‘tests2/’ which is copy of current tests, and files changed as per glusterd2/glustercli needs. We can do bulk replace etc etc… start small, make incremental progress. Run it once a day. 
                * Add smoke check for core glusterfs to keep things working with GD2 
                * Add GD2 tests into the said patch, to ensure functionality of GD2 itself 
                * Approach ack: Shyam 
                * Approach nack: 
    * 

Coding standards 
        * Did we come to conclusion? What next? 
            * Need some more votes to take it forward 
            * Settle current conflicts to the settings 
        * [amarts] Need to see what should be ‘deadline’ for this. Ideal to have before 4.1, or else backporting would be serious problem. 
        * AI: Reminder mail on release to get this closed [Shyam] 
        * Conversion work should be doable in 1/2 a day 
        * Per-patch format auto-verifier/correction job readiness 
            * Possibly not ready during roll-out 
            * Not looking at it as the blocker, as we can get it within a week and sanitize patches that were merged in that week [Shyam] 
    * 

Branching for 4.1? 
        * Today would be branching date [Shyam] 
            * No time to fold slipping features, as we are 2 weeks off already! 
            * Branching is on 4th May, 2018, what makes it gets in, rest is pushed to 4.2 
        * Leases? 
        * Ctime? 
        * Thin-Arbiter? 
        * <Any other features>? 
    * 

Round Robin: 
        * [amarts] - Is the plan for version change (or not change) ready after 4.1? or do we need to extend the period for this? 
            * AI: Send proposal to devel -> users and take action on getting this done before 4.2 
            * Fold in xlator maturity states into the same release 
        * [kkeithley] - new (untriaged) upstream bugs list is getting longer. 
            * Triage beyond assignment 
            * Tracking fixes and closure of the same 
            * AI: Shyam to work on this and next steps 

Decisions and Actions 


    * AI (GPL cure): Send a reminder to the lists and get the changes merged around next maintainers meeting [Amar] 
    * Decision: GD2 tests to create a patch of tests and work on it using nightly runs to get GD2 integrated 
    * AI (format conversion): Reminder mail on release to get this closed [Shyam] 
    * AI (format conversion): Conversion done Thursday, ready for merge Friday [Amar/Nigel] 
    * Decision (4.1 branching): 4.1 branching date set at 4th May, no feature slips allowed beyond that [Shyam] 
    * AI (release cadence and version numbers change): Send proposal to devel -> users and take action on getting this done before 4.2 [Shyam] 
    * AI (Bugs triage cadence): Shyam to work on this and next steps [Shyam]
