[Openstack-operators] [FEMDC] meetings suspended until further notice
Dear all, Following the exchanges we had during the Vancouver summit, in particular the non-sense to maintain/animate two groups targeting similar challenges (ie., the FEMDC SIG [1] and the new Edge Computing Working group [2]), FEMDC meetings are suspended until further notice. If you are interested by Edge Computing discussions, please see information available on the new edge wiki page [2].

Right, you can set the stable-branch-type field to 'tagless' (see http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/releases/tree/README.rst#n462) and then set the branch location field to the SHA you want to use. If you would be ready to branch all of the roles at one time, you could put all of them into 1 deliverable file. Otherwise, you will want to split them up into their own files. And since you have so many, I will point out that we're really into automation over here on the release team, and if you wanted to work on making the edit-deliverable command smart enough to determine the SHA for you I could walk you through that code to get you started.

Re: [Openstack-operators] Switching from Fuel to OpenStack-Ansible
Hi both, Thanks for the info. Yep, I've had a look at the reference architecture and will probably end up running three controllers with six compute nodes using Ceph for storage. Initial thoughts are to put the Ceph OSDs on the compute nodes which each have 4x400GB SSD drives spare and use the controllers as the ceph monitors. It is a month or two until I start the migration so will hop on to IRC if I have any issues or questions!

[Openstack-operators] [openstack-ansible][releases][governance] Change in OSA roles tagging
Hello, *TL:DR;* If you are an openstack-ansible user, consuming our roles directly, with tags, without using openstack-ansible plays or integrated repo, then things will change for you. Start using git shas instead of tags. All other openstack-ansible users should not see a difference, even if they use openstack-ansible tags. During the summit, I had a discussion with dhellman (and smcginnis) to change how openstack-ansible does its releases. Currently, we tag openstack-ansible + many roles under our umbrella every two weeks. As far as I know, nobody requested to have roles tagged every two weeks. Only OpenStack-Ansible need to be tagged for consumption. Even people using our roles directly outside openstack-ansible generally use sha for roles. We don't rely on ansible galaxy. Because there is no need to tag the roles, there is no need to make them part of the "openstack-ansible" deliverable [1][2]. I will therefore clarify the governance repo for that, separating the roles, each of them with their own deliverable, instead of grouping some roles within openstack-ansible, and some others outside it. With this done, a release of openstack-ansible becomes straightforward using the standard release tooling. The releases of openstack-ansible becomes far simpler to request, review, and will not have timeouts anymore :p There are a few issues I see from the change. Still according to the discussion, it seems we can overcome those. 1. As this will be applied on all the branches, we may reach some issues with releasing in the next days. While the validate tooling of releases has shown me that it wouldn't be a problem (just warning) to not have all the repos in the deliverable, I would expect a governance change could be impactful. However, that is only impacting openstack-ansible, releases, and governance team: Keep in mind, openstack-ansible will not change for its users, and will still be tagged as you know it. 2. We will keep branching our roles the same way we do now. What we liked for roles being part of this deliverable, is the ability of having them automatically branched and their files adapted. To what I heard, it is still possible to do so, by having a devstack-like behavior, which branches on a sha, instead of branching on tag. So I guess it means all our roles will now be part of release files like this one [3], or even on a single release file, similar to it. What I would like to have, from this email, is: 1. Raise awareness to all the involved parties; 2. Confirmation we can go ahead, from a governance standpoint; 3. Confirmation we can still benefit from this automatic branch tooling. Thank you in advance.
