 raitobezarius | If this keep up, this will certainly avoid slipping up the merge queue further, I think | 22:54:53 |
| raitobezarius | Other than that, I don't think there's much more to do | 22:55:46 |
| raitobezarius | (there's LixCon related items that are still pending, infra related items, etc.) | 22:56:13 |
 piegames | Having another infra person who could tackle this would be really nice | 22:58:55 |
| raitobezarius | Unfortunately, it's not a pure infra topic as in sysadmin | 22:59:11 |
 Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | seeing that you added the release-blocker tag to my issue: what is the current timeline for the release? (i am on the brink of giving up on that issue due to a severe lack of debuggability) | 22:59:15 |
| raitobezarius | It requires development | 22:59:13 |
| raitobezarius | (and strong familiarity with Gerrit) | 22:59:21 |
| raitobezarius | 3-4 months | 22:59:25 |
| raitobezarius | It can slip up to 5 months like what happened with 2.94.0 | 22:59:36 |
| raitobezarius | Is your issue the machine stuff? | 22:59:40 |
| raitobezarius | If so, I think Qyriad might help here | 22:59:44 |
| raitobezarius | But this is a "strong" release blocker in the sense where this is seriously needed | 22:59:53 |
| Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | i guess i'll have lots of time in the hospital anyway /hj | 23:00:00 |
| raitobezarius | If you give up, just signal it to us and somefew else will pick up | 23:00:00 |
| raitobezarius | (ideally, signal early) | 23:00:04 |
| raitobezarius | take care :-[ | 23:00:09 |
| Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | yes | 23:00:13 |
| raitobezarius | Another load somefew could take over me is the Flakes extraction, I took responsibility for it but I have no strong desire to achieve it by myself, but I have all the context and know-how to finish it, so I don't feel like it's easy to delegate to somefew else | 23:01:01 |
| raitobezarius | I'm ~30-40 % done | 23:01:20 |
| Rutile (Commentator2.0) feel free to ping | Qyriad: permission to open a dm with you (to chat more easily and maybe even sync about the machines stuff) | 23:02:06 |
| piegames | could you deprioritize the Flakes migration in favor of the infra things? I don't think anyone is currently urgently blocked on anything Flakes related, right? | 23:03:23 |
| raitobezarius | Flakes is creating too many regressions and quality problem, it is urgent | 23:03:45 |
| raitobezarius | It's also too abandoned by the core team, we have fixes we are one year behind on | 23:04:07 |
| piegames | I might be open to tackling it myself, but not anytime soon | 23:04:13 |
| piegames | * I might be open to tackling it myself, but not anytime soon, so not an option if urgent | 23:04:20 |
| raitobezarius | I want to land Flakes migration early in the release window to give ourselves the chance to make this part of 2.95.0 | 23:04:32 |
| raitobezarius | Hopefully once this is done, this should also unlock easier fixes to the various regressions of Flakes | 23:04:49 |
| raitobezarius | (and also let people stack up on new features that we don't want in core) | 23:04:56 |
| piegames | Okay, then how about: We kick the current deprecations down the road another release cycle and focus on more Flaker and npins stuff in the meantime, to take off infra load. This would however require reverting the already merged commits | 23:05:44 |
