Randy,
Thanks for your presentation at the Open Contrail Users Group last week. Can
you please post a public link to your slide deck for people who were unable to
attend or who didn't take phone photos of every slide. Especially, the link to
the Google Group needs to go out so that everyone on the Dev mailing list can
sign up.
I have a list of potential topics for the first meeting of whatever forum you
end up organizing.
* Compiling Contrail from source - There has been a fair amount of
discussion of this on the mailing list recently
* Discussion of issues people are encountering
* Build scripts
* Prerequisites
* Documentation of the build process
* Due dates
* An overview of current key dates in the process (blueprint, code
complete, testing, documentation, beta, GA)
* Discussion of any changes that might help contributors plan better
* Dates for dates - set expectations on how and when the key dates for
future releases will be set
* Missed date management - discussion of how slipped dates for Juniper's
GA release impact community development
* Testing procedures
* Discussion of how third party developers should expect to interact
with Juniper during the time period between code freeze and beta and GA
* Discussion of beta vs release candidate and whether there are process
improvements needed in order to ensure that third party developers are able to
catch and fix bugs in the features they are developing
* Overview of test framework, not just unit tests but functional and
full stack automated tests
* Documentation
* How are non-Juniper developers expected to deliver documentation for
features that they develop?
* When is documentation due?
* Core reviewer / TSC / meetings
* What are the expectations for a non-Juniper developer to become a core
reviewer?
* Does Contrail have anything equivalent to a Technical Steering
Committee?
* Are there any regularly scheduled meetings (e.g. on Slack/IRC or
teleconference) for developers to sync up on progress of their changes, discuss
code reviews, discuss bugs, etc
* Build system problems - How can non-Juniper contributors effectively
troubleshoot issues like this:
