Meeting summary
---------------

* edwarnicke walks quickly through Fast/Phased  (phrobb, 17:09:36)
* rovarga brings up the issue of bug tracking across branches  (skitt,
  17:14:50)
* JIRA fixes this, colindixon also describes processes to handle it in
  bugzilla  (skitt, 17:16:56)
* about semantic versioning, edwarnicke brings up the issue of skew and
  how to collapse it  (skitt, 17:18:15)
* rovarga explains how to use version ranges to handle that  (skitt,
  17:18:48)
* e.g. a dependency on [1.0.0,2) automatically pulls in the latest
  release in that range  (skitt, 17:19:31)
* this works for features too  (skitt, 17:19:38)
* for this to work people need to adhere to semver  (skitt, 17:19:53)
* first step is to see if we can cascade a Maven release throughout the
  project instead of relying on autorelease's single reactor  (skitt,
  17:27:08)
* rovarga thinks this won't work at first but it will give us a list of
  things to fix  (skitt, 17:27:25)
* edwarnicke points out that for this to work everywhere we need to get
  whatever change we want to make to propagate throughout the project
  (skitt, 17:28:31)
* possible for plan for Boron: switch odlparent and yangtools to
  semantic versioning  (skitt, 17:33:48)
* and use version ranges for their downstreams  (skitt, 17:33:58)
* animal sniffer can point out missing semantic version bumps  (skitt,
  17:34:43)
* the question ends up being the human part: how do we involve the
  projects to avoid version skew  (skitt, 17:51:13)
* how do we avoid projects blocking upstream version bumps  (skitt,
  17:51:23)
* how do we handle large version bumps when blockages do occur  (skitt,
  17:51:38)
* colindixon points out that there are two orthogonal things under
  discussion: semver and phased  (skitt, 17:54:05)
* few projects will have the discipline for semver in the short term
  (skitt, 17:54:16)
* but we can reap the benefits broadly without involving everyone (or
  can we?)  (skitt, 17:54:35)
