The initial work will be something pretty trivial. It's just a web hook on a git push. The workflow in this case is not customizable, and has basically no features. The intent is to iterate on this to make it much more compelling over time, soon after the minimum integration, we will put a real workflow system in place. We did discuss Zuul and Nodepool, and nobody had any objection to learning more about those. This might be a bit early in our roadmap to be pulling them in, but if there is an easy way to use them early in our development, we'd like to explore that. >> Devdatta has created 2 blueprints for consideration: [2] [3] >> >> I have set up a doodle to poll for a /recurring/ meeting time for this >> subgroup: http://doodle.com/7wypkzqe9wep3d33#table (Timezone support >> is enabled) >> >> Currently the plan is to try G+ hangouts to run this meetings and scribe >> on #solum.

We just finished holding the Solum Community Design Workshop in San Francisco. We had both irc and G+ in addition to etherpad for shared notetaking. What we found is that that collaboration was faster and more effective when we used the G+ tool. The remote participants had a strong preference for it, and requested that we use it for the breakout meetings as well. The breakout design meetings will have a scribe who will transcribe the interaction in IRC so it will also be logged. Please recognize that we have not yet considered an alternate point of view on either of these subjects yet, because one has not been raised until now. I'm open to suggestions for how best to engage the experts on git integration so we can benefit from the expertise in our community.
