Tnx. I was just wondering if it wouldn't be nice to keep a fixed offset from OpenStack releases (especially in the NetVirt context)... 17:46:27 <colindixon> #Info colindixon explains that we basically have 6 4 week periods (M1-M5 and then RCs), the we have 4 weeks from offsets, and then a few weeks of slack in there 17:47:02 <anipbu> Lunar New Year is January 28, which falls into the M3 Offset 2 timeframe (recall that M3 is the toughest Milestone). 17:47:30 <colindixon> #info vishnoianil asks if we could cut it down to 6 months, some ideas would be to cut one milestone (M1?) or to cut the distance betwen milestones down to 3 weeks 17:47:48 <colindixon> #info anipbu notes that Lunar New Year is January 28, which falls into the M3 Offset 2 timeframe (recall that M3 is the toughest Milestone) 17:48:30 <colindixon> #info abhijitkumbhare asks if we're trying to target a specific month for this release (or the next one), do we have an ODL summit 2017 date yet 17:49:11 <gkaempfer> For companies that want to release products based on ODL, an 8 month cycle seems a bit long (and implies irregularity with respect to release dates within the year) 17:50:25 <colindixon> #info colindixon says he'd rather not tie things to the summit and that would be Nitrogen not Carbon, also as our releases calm down a bit, having the release coincide with the summit, might not be required 17:51:45 <ChrisPriceAB> It would really help consumers of ODL if we released based on dates. Both other communities and commercial vendors. 17:52:13 <colindixon> #info ChrisPriceAB and gkaempfer both say that it woudl help a lot of if we could hit a date-based release process, where we shipped twice a week 17:52:33 <gkaempfer> Agree with ChrisPriceAB 17:52:39 <ChrisPriceAB> Year ^^ 17:52:52 <ChrisPriceAB> twice a week might be tough colindixon 17:53:02 <colindixon> #undo 17:53:02 <odl_meetbot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.ircmeeting.items.Info object at 0x2495050> 17:53:05 <colindixon> #info ChrisPriceAB and gkaempfer both say that it woudl help a lot of if we could hit a date-based release process, where we shipped twice a year 17:59:02 <colindixon> #info colindixon says that his feeling and based on past discussion, the M1 milestone is the one that has the least value, and then if we moved M1 to M0 and then dropped the 2 week gap between the Boron release and M0, that would put the release at 3/30, which would be a lot closer to every 6 months 17:59:14 <colindixon> #topic shuva as a committer on openflow plugin 17:59:35 <colindixon> #link https://lists.opendaylight.org/pipermail/tsc/2016-July/005645.html Shuva Jyoti Kar as OpenFlow Plugin committer 17:59:52 <colindixon> #startvote shall the TSC approve Shuva Jyoti Kar as an OpenFlow plugin committer? -1,0,+1 17:59:52 <odl_meetbot> Begin voting on: shall the TSC approve Shuva Jyoti Kar as an OpenFlow plugin committer?
