[tc][all] OpenStack Technical Committee Weekly Summary and Meeting Agenda (2025.1/R-16)

by Goutham Pacha Ravi

Hello Stackers, We're 16 weeks away from the 2025.1 ("Epoxy") release date (2024-04-02) [1]. OpenStack project teams are planning bug squashes and review jams in the next couple of weeks before contribution activity slows due to end-of-the-year holidays around the world. The OpenStack Technical Committee did not merge any new governance changes this week; however, a few proposals are iterating with community and TC review. === Weekly Meeting === The OpenStack Technical Committee held its monthly video conference last week, which was simultaneously recorded via text on IRC [2][3]. The discussion tracked several TC initiatives for this release cycle [4]. Most notably, the recent migration of base integration jobs to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Python 3.12 has caused CI jobs to break for several code repos [5]. I’d like to reiterate that project teams must resolve these issues or temporarily pin the nodeset of their test jobs to "ubuntu-jammy" to buy some time for fixes. We then checked on the status of "unmaintained" branches. The release team wanted the TC to solidify processes for two specific issues: nominating "unmaintained" liaisons and establishing guidelines for retiring these branches. The lack of such processes has resulted in the proliferation of "unmaintained" code branches across the community and failure to implement the TC resolution that created these branches [6]. The oldest unmaintained branch is "unmaintained/victoria", and it’s unclear if anyone benefits from keeping it around. Discussion on cleanup has been delayed due to uncertainty about what to do [7]. Meanwhile, branches like Yoga may still have high usage and active contributors, emphasizing the need for a clear process to decide their fate. The technical committee may consider advising the release team to eliminate branches with low usage, but this doesn’t solve the problem of finding volunteers to maintain high-usage branches. The idea is that projects can opt to maintain more branches if there is sufficient user interest and support, but there is currently no process for this, nor is it clear how to recruit volunteers. We agreed to continue this discussion at the next meeting. However, in the meantime, there were no objections to EOL-ing the Victoria, Wallaby, and Xena branches. Clark Boylan (clarkb) noted an issue with building CentOS Stream 10 images using Disk Image Builder, as they cannot boot on several clouds due to the x86_64 v3 CPU instruction set requirement. Only a few provider clouds, including OpenMetal and Rackspace Flex, meet the CPU requirements to boot CentOS 10. This limitation may affect options for regular test nodes, and project teams are advised to take notice. Until all Zuul/Nodepool cloud providers meet the CPU requirements, teams may need to adjust their testing strategies. Jeremy Stanley (fungi) reminded us that nominations for individual member representatives for the OpenInfra Foundation Board of Directors are still open [8]. Ten nominations from members are required to make it onto the ballot. The OpenStack TC's next weekly meeting is today, 2024-12-10. This will be an IRC meeting hosted on #openstack-tc at 1800 UTC. Please find the agenda on the meeting wiki [9]. I look forward to seeing you there. === Governance Proposals === ==== Open for Review ==== Add ansible-role-httpd repo to OSA-owned projects | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/935694 Retire Murano/Senlin/Sahara OpenStack-Ansible roles | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/935677 Rework the initial goal proposal as suggested by people | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/931254 Resolve to adhere to non-biased language | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/934907 Propose to select the eventlet-removal community goal | https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/governance/+/934936 Thank you very much for reading!
