[Forum] Meet the Projects Session!
by Kendall Nelson 31 May '22

31 May '22

Hello :) I wanted to take a moment to invite project maintainers, core contributors, PTLs, governance officials, etc to a meet the projects (projects being the OIF top level ones- Kata, Zuul, OpenStack, StarlingX, and Airship) session during the Forum at the upcoming Summit in Berlin. It will take place Tue, June 7, 11:20am - 12:30pm local in A - A06. The idea is to gather in a single place so that newer members of the community or people unfamiliar with the project can come and meet some of the active participants and ask questions. It's all really informal so there is no need to prepare anything ahead of time. I realize it is pretty late in everyone's planning their schedules for the summit, but if you have a few minutes to spare to come hang out and meet some people and network, please do! We would love to see you there. -Kendall

Introducing the zuul-weeder project
by Tristan Cacqueray 24 May '22

24 May '22

Hello, We developed a proof of concept service called zuul-weeder to help us analyze the configuration loaded in a Zuul service. Please find the initial release announcement: https://www.softwarefactory-project.io/introducing-zuul-weeder.html You can setup zuul-weeder by running this command: podman run -p 9001:9001 -v /etc/zuul:/etc/zuul:ro --rm quay.io/software-factory/zuul-weeder We'd be happy to get your feedback and extend the interface for your needs: https://github.com/softwarefactory-project/zuul-weeder/issues/new If it makes sense, we'd be happy to contribute the project to the Zuul organization. Kind Regards, -Tristan

Zuul Project Update Video Recording
by Clark Boylan 20 May '22

20 May '22

Hello everyone, The Foundation is currently collecting Project Update Videos from each OpenInfra community to showcase what each projects has accomplished in ~the last year. These videos will be hosted on the Foundation youtube channel and promoted at the Summit. If Zuul is interested in participating we've been asked to produce a short (no more than 10 minutes) recorded presentation by May 27th. There is an understanding that the lead up to the Summit can be quite busy for many of us, and if Zuul would like to participate but can't get a recording done in that timeframe there will be another round of project update promotion after the Summit. Expect a reminder for that mid June if we don't get a video done by May 27. What that means for us is we need to decide if we would like to produce such a video at all, and if so determine if we're aiming for pre or post summit uploading. I'm happy to help facilitate this as much as I can (get it to the hands of the Foundation and transcode as necessary for them), but I'm not sure I can be the one to do the recording itself. Let me know what you think and I'll pass it along to the Foundation. Clark

Deprecation reminder: shared queue declaration
by James E. Blair 17 May '22

17 May '22

Hi, I would like to remind all Zuul users that shared queues should now be declared at the project level and not at project-pipeline. Declaring them in project-pipelines has been deprecated since version 4.1.0[1], and we will remove that syntax in the next major release (v7). This removal could cause significant disruption if you continue to use the deprecated syntax. To illustrate, that means that a current project definition which appears like this: - project: name: foo gate: queue: shared jobs: [...] Should be changed to: - project: name: foo queue: shared gate: jobs: [...] We have provided a script[2] which you can run against the Zuul API to find instances of this in your configuration. I recommend running it and resolving those instances ASAP; there is no reason to wait. -Jim [1] https://zuul-ci.org/docs/zuul/latest/releasenotes.html#relnotes-4-1-0-depre… [2] https://opendev.org/zuul/zuul/src/branch/master/tools/deprecated-queues.py

Zuul Bitergia Contribution Stats and the Summit
by Clark Boylan 10 May '22

10 May '22

Hello again, Zuul has a Bitergia contribution metrics dashboard hosted at https://zuul.biterg.io. There is some hope we might be able to use this information to show interesting Zuul stats at the Summit. One of the ideas I had was maybe we can show how Zuul v5 progressed over time. To do that with as much accuracy as possible it would be great if we can ensure our affiliation information is up to date. If you navigate to Community -> Affiliations from the landing page you should be able to double check your own affiliations are correct. You can't currently update them in that system, but if you email me directly or message me on Matrix I will do what I can to correct the info. There are a small number instances where the info is out of date, and I'll reach out to those I recognize in that situation to see about correcting the info. If you've got any ideas for what might be interesting to show feel free to share them as well. Clark

Global semaphore spec
by James E. Blair 09 May '22

09 May '22

Hi, I have posted a spec for a new global semaphore feature. I think it's a fairly straightforward concept that fits in well with existing patterns, but it does have some novel aspects (it would be the first time we have something like a Zuul config object defined in the tenant config file). As such, I'd like to make sure we get it right and we're okay with this. The spec has seen some initial positive review already. Given that, I would like to merge it next Monday (May 16) if it looks like we have consensus then, or of course delay it if folks identify problems or need more time to review. It is located here: https://review.opendev.org/840246 Thanks, Jim
