Next release team will be OFF-CYCLE, April 1 (Joyce: Now that it's at 2pm, does it still conflict with your first-Friday-of-the-month DITR meeting?)
> Agenda:
>
> 1) Do we still want Kerberized CUPS config in the real world?
Tabled until June.
> 2) Punting help-config
Agreement is made to punt it. We will punt it from the metapackage, and stop buildling new versions. Discussion ensues about when/whether to remove it from the archive, and no consensus is reached.
E-mail Garry to punt nickname.
> 3) Amendment to workflow policy to fast-track certain changes
- Documentation changes (man page edits or additions) can go straight to -development.
- If a change has previously been ACKd (or the SVN TTL expired), but a small typo is found (e.g. inverted logic, typo'd command, etc), the error may be fixed and it may be re-uploaded to -development without the 3 day waiting period.
Approved.
SIPB should figure out if it has a usable machine in the alpha-linux cluster and identify it as such, and people should be encouraged to use it and test things.
Periodic reminder e-mails will be sent to release-team asking for explicit testing of certain changes if things linger in -development for too long.
> 4) The cluster machines need labels telling people the hostname and who to contact
jdreed will print labels and give them to hotline.
> 5) Other business
Can we kill Athena finger with fire?
There is general approval of this idea, and jdreed will contact zacheiss to ask about stripping Nickname from GECOS.
> 6) Trac review and assigning bounded time to certain tickets.
{lizdenys,geofft} will look at #243 (openafs dkms) and come up with a concrete plan by next release-team (April 1).
geofft will look at #834 (upgrade-schroots doesn't work)
