Re: [openstack-dev] [bug-smash] Global OpenStack Bug Smash Mitaka

2016-03-10 Thread Ronald Bradford 
I attended the first day of the bugsmash event in New York and I have some
general feedback for future organizers of these types of events.  Hopefully
others can also share their experiences.

These comments are for the benefit of making the event better the next
time. As I attended only one location and one of three days, the experience
may have been vastly different elsewhere.

Connectivity.  The University location blocked IRC, git and gerrit ports.
One should be prepared for this situation when talking about the use of IRC
(but not being able to demonstrate your local client for example).  Knowing
how to adjust devstack to use https was something we needed to do.  I was
told you could communicate with gerrit over https but never got to see
that.  Having a reference to this, say the wiki would be great.


Prerequisites:  It would likely be more ideal if your focus is on fixing
bugs rather then talking about the process of how to contribute to fixing
bugs in OpenStack then stating that installing devstack as a pre-requisite.
At NYC almost all attendees have never installed devstack, so a good
portion of the day was getting this setup.  As such it was requested by
some devstack cores to propose this in docs, and hence
http://docs-draft.openstack.org/54/290854/1/check/gate-devstack-publish-docs/d6e9b5b//doc/build/html/guides/first-time.html
via https://review.openstack.org/#/c/290854/.   Again, this was just our
experience but this guide is for the absolute first time devstack user, and
it's detailed for that purpose.

Approach: There are multiple ways to consider addressing bugs, do you even
need devstack, or do you just use the code and unit tests. I think it's
important to cultivate the varied approaches and provide demonstrations of
each.  Which way to do you start, again it depends.   I feel that given the
NYC audience (and this may also not reflect others), that a live demo of
devstack, looking at screen logs, restarting a service, even changing
something (say a logging format, or a line of code) will show the audience
the impact of using devstack and validating manually the impact of your
code change.  Demonstrating unit tests, and other tox environments such as
pep8 is also a solid grounding in fixing bugs well and consistently.

Audience: The NYC event lacked any prep information (e.g. a surveymonkey)
of the level of attendee, this could have facilitated splitting the first
day into different tracks based on skills level.  For a 3 day event,
perhaps advertising day 1 specifically as getting your environment ready,
informs people.

Baseline:  At our event one of the outcomes was for a few cloud images to
be spun up with devstack and code. This solves some of the connectivity
issues, and also solves this first day getting started.  It enables it to
be potential more a homework task.  I think is a great way, having a public
cloud image and devstack and sample code base.  It serves as the basis of
demo land, can be cloned for attendees at any location.

My 2 cents to making this type of event even better next time.

I screwed up the dates. I thought I had some more time. IOW, I don't 
have a list ready. Luckily dims bashed his way through the stale 
in progress bugs in Nova and had reset a lot of them. If you need some
kind of query for Launchpad you can use my scripts at [1]. They are
fairly short and simple. They are written with Nova in mind but you
will see in the code where you have to change that in case for Cinder,
Neutron and so on.
Thanks dims for your effort!

Hi Shane,

I'm the bug list maintainer of Nova, is it possible for me to propose a list of 
bugs which need fixes? 
Nova (and surely other projects too) would also benefit from:
* a cleanup of inconsistencies in bug reports in Launchpad
* triaging new bugs in Launchpad
* reviews of pushed bug fixes in Gerrit
Basically the steps from [1]. As we're heading to the rc phase in a few weeks 
it would be benefitial to have a lot of eyes on that.

As I said in my previous message, we do set a deadline: the main
feature freeze listed on the release schedule. I was merely pointing
out that the deadline for contributors to qualify for registration
discounts is prior to this Bug Smash event, and so any contributions
made during the event won't solely qualify anyone for a registration
code. Some of our conference coordinators had expressed concern that
new or latent contributors participating in the Bug Smash may be
expecting a discount code, so I volunteered to send a follow-up to
this thread on their behalf.

Hi Jeremy,

You are over worried about the new contributors. We are going to limit the 
number of attendees, and from my experience and knowledge, most of developers 
who join bug smash are old and experienced OpenStack developers, and they 
already have ATC codes. On the other hand, if those events don't exist, you are 
not able to stop new contributors from submitting and merging individual 
patches or fixes. You might set a deadline of sending the ATC codes - say some 
Release Candidate.

Regards.

It's worth pointing out that this puts the event well after Mitaka feature 
freeze, which is traditionally when we stop sending Summit registration 
discount codes to new contributors to the release.
Presumably that's not anyone's reason for participating in such an event, but 
just wanted to clarify it's my understanding that our conference organizers 
aren't prepared for the logistical challenges of generating extra codes for Bug 
Smash participants who haven't otherwise contributed to the release so close to 
the Summit dates.

Hi all,

After discussing with TC members and other community guys, we thought March 2-4 
might not be a good timing for bug smash. So we decided to change the dates to 
be March 7 - 9 (Monday - Wednesday) in R4.
Please join our efforts to fix bugs for OpenStack.

Thanks.

I know there is quite a lot of concern in the community about this
event being scheduled for the same dates as our feature freeze and
the Mitaka 3 milestone. I am working with the organizers to try to
reschedule. We will post more info here when we have it.
