08:33:58 <efoley> My audio is definitely out
08:34:08 <efoley> I'll be at the plugfest next week
08:34:38 <efoley> I can hear you all, but my mic is out
08:35:24 <efoley> We have a few sessions on the agenda, including an NSB one, and Yardstick planning
08:35:41 <efoley> There are also long duration testing sessions too, which we should participate in
08:35:42 <rbbratta> #topic Plugfest
08:35:54 <efoley> And a few more testing discussions
08:36:29 <mj_rex> yes, i'll also be there attending NSB, yardstick planning and long duration test
08:37:38 <efoley> There are a few more requirements going to be coming from China Mobile team
08:38:20 <efoley> Verizon folks requested a meeting at the OpenStack summit, and Tim Irnich, Ray paik and myself met with them
08:38:41 <rbbratta> at&t?
08:39:02 <efoley> Yes
08:39:10 <efoley> AT&T
08:39:12 <efoley> sorry
08:40:05 <efoley> They are trying to use Yardstick instead of their current testing infra. Looks like they might have a few minor requirements too. But they will need to re-evaluate based on our discussion.
08:41:28 <rbbratta> is AT&T going to be at Plugfest?
08:41:42 <efoley> I don't know
08:41:56 <efoley> Elise might attend again, however, that was not confirmed
08:42:17 <efoley> They may need more time to re-evaluate
08:42:41 <efoley> What they presented was a gap analysis between their current infra and Yardstick
08:43:10 <efoley> Some gaps were minor updates
08:43:24 <efoley> Some gaps were fillable by undocumented features
08:44:08 <efoley> We need to have a look at the docs and make sure that we document new and existing features
08:44:41 <mj_rex> thank you emma for the info, it's good news that Yardstick can be used by at&t as a user
08:45:49 <mj_rex> #info at&t folks had meeting with Emma, Tim Irnich, Ray paik in Openstack summit
08:46:05 <efoley> Yes, it is good to see that new users are looking at Yardstick.
08:46:49 <mj_rex> #info they presented  a gap analysis between their current infra and Yardstick and still need time to re-evaluate based on the discussion.
08:48:37 <mj_rex> and for new users, we still has something to do on the user-guide to be better
08:48:46 <efoley> +2
08:49:21 <efoley> That conversation with AT&T was: We can do that.. use this feature.. yup, we can do that...
08:49:35 <efoley> All slightly undocumented
08:50:17 <efoley> Documentation should be high priority this cycle
08:50:30 <mj_rex> I think we need a best practice on documentation in Gambia..
08:51:16 <efoley> I agree. Guidelines, what to document, where to document it, and the level of detail that is needed.
08:51:46 <efoley> We should start with the scenarios, runners, etc.
08:52:25 <mj_rex> so we can talk  on this in the yardstick planning next week and make them to JIRA tasks in Gambia.
08:53:50 <efoley> Can we open the planning discussion to those that are not attending?
08:54:06 <mj_rex> yes, of course
08:54:10 <efoley> Perhaps over IRC, or an audio call, depending on the room we have available
08:54:29 <ralonsoh> +1 to this idea
08:54:33 <mj_rex> we can find a time slot and send the emails beforehand
08:55:41 <mj_rex> #info Yardstick team would find a time slot in Plugfest for everyone to jump into the Yardstick planning discussion.
08:55:45 <efoley> We have the time already (as long as it doesn't change)
08:56:49 <efoley> 13h-15h (UTC+1)
08:57:01 <efoley> June 6th
08:57:18 <mj_rex> #link https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/EVNT/Fraser+Plugfest+Schedule
08:57:52 <efoley> That works for Europe and US based contributers, not so much Asia-based contributers
08:58:31 <efoley> We can try swapping with the DP benchmarking session at 9am that morning
08:59:24 <efoley> There's a clash with the Release process session
09:00:01 <ralonsoh> I need to drop the voice call
09:00:50 <efoley> We're out of time
09:01:48 <mj_rex> it can be discussed via mails since we still got time before plugfest
09:02:01 <abhijitsinha> I need to drop too
09:02:14 <efoley> Can you start that thread, Rex?
09:02:35 <mj_rex> ok, I'll start the thread.
09:02:46 <efoley> I also have to drop.
09:02:52 <efoley> Thanks folks
