2016 Evergreen Hack-A-Way
Nov 2nd - 4th, Indianapolis, IN
Working documents
Preliminary Agenda
- Browser client – path to completion and release of a 3.0 in 2017
- Continued discussion on developer mentorship program
Scheduled events
- Wednesday, 2 November, 15:00ish — discuss results of the buildmaster experiment
- Results of discussion
- Agreement that it would be useful to carry on the buildmaster role
- Dan Wells noted that it's useful to have less experienced buildmasters do the building, with the more experienced ones advising and helping with testing
- There was a discussion of how to improve communication around the build and release process: in particular, we need to improve make sure that the availability of a build is announced
- There was a discussion about whether buildmasters would follow the pattern of acting as build maintainers (as RMs typically become release maintainers). Ultimately, it was decided to try a model where there is a pool of buildmasters available to make builds for all release branches, although at any given point in time, specific buildmasters would have primary responsibility for a given release branch.
- Dan Wells and Blake Henderson are willing to continue as buildmasters
- Galen Charlton is throwing his hat in the ring as a buildmaster
- Action items
- Galen will send out a call for buildmasters
- We'll collectively work on clarifying the release process, checklists, and release team process. Kathy will lead this discussion.
