Revision as of 15:49, 13 March 2015

This is the main page for FAD Release Tools and Infrastructure 2015. This hackathon is intended to take release tools and process to the next level in Fedora for F23/F24 and beyond.

  • Modularize the compose process
  • Replace serial bash script with easier to hack and maintain Python tools
  • Establish dependency management of compose deliverables
  • Cut time to provide updates to users for critical security fixes

Purpose

Technical goals TBD
This should be completed by technical participants as we scope the FAD, to meet the general goals above.
  1. Our purpose is to complete the following primary goals:
    • Complete any remaining architecture/design details for new release tools
    • Hack (possibly fedmsg-based) framework for product compose
    • ...
  2. In addition, we will attempt to complete the following secondary goals as time allows:
    • Early sessions on Fedora Hubs design/user stories - Thursday, Fedora Engineering team members
    • ...

Plan

  1. Location: TBD, strong possibility for Red Hat Tower, Raleigh, NC USA or Red Hat, Westford, MA USA
  2. Date: Likely 2015-May-28 to 2015-Jun-01
    • Considerations:
      • F22 release date is heavily time-driven, 2015-May-19, but our record is not good :-)
      • Red Hat Summit is 2015-Jun-26 to 2015-Jun-29
      • Don't want to wait too long for hackfest after Adam Miller is on board (2015-Apr-13), strike while iron is hot
      • Don't want to drag PyCon attendees (Apr 6-16?) around the country too much at one time
  3. Schedule
    • International participants arrive Wed before
    • Fedora Engineering team domestic participants arrive Wed before (for Thu Hubs session)
    • Non-Fedora Engineering team domestic participants arrive Thu before
    • Fri -- Work day
    • Sat -- Work day
    • Sun -- Work day
    • Participants leave Mon (or Sunday night if required)
  4. Important skills
    • Python (vital!)
    • bash
    • understanding of release deliverables
    • knowledge of fedmsg and other backend technologies helpful
    • knowledge of Koji processes and internals helpful
    • Will Woods from Anaconda team
  5. Other considerations
    • Raleigh was site of a previous FAD and is probably a good cost-based option.
      • Did the space last time work out OK?
    • Paul can drive to the event and possibly do some airport pickups.
    • International community members need as much as advance notice as possible
