Hello Everyone,

Here is this week's summary of the Technical Committee activities.

1. TC Meetings:

* Next week's meeting is video call on 2nd Dec, Thursday 15:00 UTC, feel free the topic on

2. What we completed this week:

* Mark 'Technical Writing' SIG 'complete' as it is merged into TC [3]
* Rename ‘Extended Maintenance’ SIG to the ‘Stable Maintenance’ [4]
* Retire training-labs repo [5]


3. Activities In progress:
==================
TC Tracker for Yoga cycle
------------------------------
* This etherpad includes the Yoga cycle targets/working items for TC[6].

Open Reviews
-----------------
* 8 open reviews for ongoing activities[7].

Yoga testing runtime
-------------------------
We updated the Yoga testing runtime to move from CentOS stream 8 to CentOS stream 9
and so drop the py3.6[8]. But while updating projects to drop py3.6, and discussion on
whether we should change 'python_requires'>= 3.8 in setup.cfg, another (but good)
discussion started on ML about whether we should continue testing py3.6 and support CentOS
stream 8 and 9 both in yoga which is what RDO community plan is[8]. After discussing on
ML and then with Alfredo Moralejo on TC IRC channel, we have a potential way forward
on this which I have summarized on ML thread[9]. I will keep that open to get feedback
or any objection to the proposed plan and accordingly we will conclude it early next week.
I hope I have summarized the discussion here if not please read the ML thread for this.


Fixing Zuul config error
--------------------------
If your project is listed in zuul config error, please start planing to fix those[10]

RBAC discussion: continuing from PTG
----------------------------------------------
After last week meeting discussion, we are almost ready with this goal, if you would like
to review the current direction as well as the schedule, please review it[11]. Next plan is to
merge the proposed goal and then select it ASAP as m-1 is already passed for Yoga cycle.

Community-wide goal updates
------------------------------------
* Two goals are proposed currently and under review.
** RBAC goal is pretty much in good shape now, feel free to review it[11]
** 'FIPS compatibility and compliance' [12].

Adjutant need maintainers and PTLs
-------------------------------------------
We are waiting to hear from Braden, Albert on permission to work in this project[13].

New project 'Skyline' proposal
------------------------------------
* TC is still waiting for skyline team to respond on open queries[14].

TC tags analysis
