Hi,

Bugs
----

sometimes hits the keystone API to get glance endpoints

[Medium] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1763051 Need to audit

the different live migartion notifications sent at a proper time.

find the proper solution.

[Low] https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1487038

Old abandoned patches exist but need somebody to pick them up:

* https://review.openstack.org/#/c/388345/


Versioned notification transformation
-------------------------------------
https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:bp/versioned-notification-transformation-rocky+status:open
* https://review.openstack.org/#/c/403660 Transform instance.exists 
notification - lost the +2 due to a merge conflict


Introduce instance.lock and instance.unlock notifications
---------------------------------------------------------
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/trigger-notifications-when-lock-unlock-instances
Implementation proposed but needs some work:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/526251/ - No progress. I've pinged the 
author but no response.


Add the user id and project id of the user initiated the instance
action to the notification
-----------------------------------------------------------------
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/add-action-initiator-to-instance-action-notifications
Implementation patch exists but still needs work
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/536243/ - No progress. I've pinged the 
author but no response.
Sending full traceback in versioned notifications
-------------------------------------------------
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/add-full-traceback-to-error-notifications
The bp was reassigned to Kevin_Zheng and he proposed a WIP patch 
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/564092/


Add versioned notifications for removing a member from a server group
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The specless bp 
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/add-server-group-remove-member-notifications
Based on the PoC patch https://review.openstack.org/#/c/559076/ we see 
basic problems with the overal bp. See Matt's mail from the ML 
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2018-April/129804.html


Add notification support for trusted_certs
------------------------------------------
This is part of the bp nova-validate-certificates implementation series 
to extend some of the instance notifications. The implementation looks 
good to me in: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/563269


Introduce Pending VM state
--------------------------
The spec https://review.openstack.org/#/c/554212 proposes some 
notification change to signal when a VM goes to PENDING state. Hovewer 
this information is already available from the versioned 
instance.update notification. The discussion in the spec is ongoing.


Weekly meeting
--------------
I have to cancel this week's meeting and next week most of us will be 
in Vancouver. So the next meeting will be held on 29th of May on 
#openstack-meeting-4
