[[!meta title="Iteration planning: February 12th"]]
[[!tag meeting]]
[[!meta date="Sat, 12 Feb 2022 15:00:00 +0000"]]
[[!toc levels=2]]
# Review of actions from previous meeting
Actions from last time, and their status are:
- NOne
# Review of the iteration that has ended
[[!milestone 43]] represented this iteration.
We completed:
- [[!issue 243]] _Doesn't do "and" automatically_
- [[!issue 251]] _We depend on a vulnerable version of chrono_
- [[!issue 252]] _We transitively depend on a vulnerable version of time_
We made some progress on:
We made no progress on:
- [[!issue 248]] _In Rust runcmd, write exit, stdout, and especially stderr upon failure_
- [[!issue 221]] _Command line tool has insufficient logging_
- [[!issue 133]] _No feature table comparing scenario runners from
different codegen templates_
We moved the open issues to the milestone for the iteration staring
and then closed off this iteration.
# Review of the repositories
Currently open MRs:
- `subplot`: none
- `subplot-web`: none
- `subplot-container-images`: none
Extra branches unrelated to MRs:
- `subplot`:
- `subplot-rust` -- Daniel is keeping this around until he has
completed the work on [[!issue 141]].
- `docgen-cmark` -- Lars is working on making docgen use cmark
rather than pandoc for the initial parse and processing.
- `subplot-web`: none
- `subplot-container-images`: none
Pipelines:
- `subplot`: clean
- `subplot-web`: none
- `subplot-container-images`: clean, and we triggered the one to build
a new container image
# Current goal (goal 2; not changed for this iteration)
Subplot provides a set of libraries with identical capabilities in
each of the supported languages. Python remains a supported language.
Rust is promoted to supported-language status. Subplot will be tested
with all supported languages. In addition, any quality of life
improvements which can be done shall be done. This goal will be
considered complete when a release of Subplot has been made with the
unified language handling support complete.
# Issue review
We had 58 open issues at the start of the meeting.
We reviewed all issues for `subplot`, except ones labelled
`someday-maybe`. There were 29 of these.
- [[!issue 268]] _Re-enable reference.md_ we added the label for goal 3.
- [[!issue 269]] _./check should set a template when running docgen_ we added
to the iteration and assigned it to Daniel.
We left the docker-for-subplot issue alone, and subplot-web had no issues.
# Plan for next iteration
We opened [[!milestone 44]] to cover this iteration, with the
following issues:
- [[!issue 133]] _No feature table comparing scenario runners from different codegen templates_
- [[!issue 221]] _Command line tool has insufficient logging_
- [[!issue 248]] _In Rust runcmd, write exit, stdout and especially stderr upon failure_
- [[!issue 269]] _./check should set a template when running docgen_
# Other business
## Talk at FOSDEM on Subplot
Daniel has talked to safety people at his work and gotten valuable
feedback for the talk. He wants to have a finished draft of the talk,
ready for recording, by the end of this iteration. Lars will be
available for review.
## Release plan for this iteration
We decided to defer making a release of whatever is in the `main`
branch until we have done our talk. When we do, we'll label it 0.3.2
or 0.4.0, depending on whether it has breaking changes or not.
[[!issue 254]] - We have deferred making a release until the next
iteration as neither of us are feeling particularly energetic right now.
## Getting Subplot into Debian
We are not yet ready to file an RFP bug to get Subplot packaged for
Debian. It will happen after we think we won't be making breaking
changes anymore. We probably want to do a review of the dependencies
as well, to make packaging easier.
Lars chatted with dkg about how to make this as easy as possible and
dkg suggested:
- Make sure you only depend on crates already in Debian where possible
- Make sure such dependencies are generally for versions already in Debian
- Try not to have non-pure-Rust dependencies
## Review of the whole code base of Subplot
We are not yet ready to make a whole code base review of Subplot.
However we feel at least part of goal 3 will be reviewing a portion of
the code.
## Issue based agenda
We will switch an issue based agenda when other people join the
meeting.
## Reaching out for feedback
We won't be reaching out for feedback until goal 3 is done.
## A media repository
Regarding the `media` repository question - we believe this is
premature at this point.
## Convincing to try Subplot
No new thoughts yet.
## Blog post
We have decided we will write a blog post about the talk. We propose that this
take the form of:
1. A blog post on Daniel's blog saying "I did a talk"
2. A blog post on Lars' blog saying "Daniel did a talk"
3. A blog post on the Subplot blog saying "We did a talk"
## Using `https://subplot.tech/`
If we choose to change URL:
1. Old URLs must redirect to new URLs
2. We'd need to update any URLs in the subplot or subplot-web repositories
3. We should blog about the "new home" (perhaps pending an IRC or Matrix channel too - See below)
We agreed to go for `subplot.tech` which Lars has registered at the cost of €5, and in
future years, Daniel and Lars will split the cost unless we gain another developer who wants to
pitch in, or we receive donations to the tune of the cost of the domain.
## A communications channel (IRC, Matrix)
Currently we do not have a channel for Subplot because we have only two developers who are
in so many channels together already, and have a query open, that it's not worth it.
However we may benefit from a dedicated Subplot channel of some kind of we are to attract
new developers or users.
We made a decision to have a matrix channel, and to have that channel hosted on matrix.org
As such, `#subplot:matrix.org` is now created, and Daniel and Lars are in there. We will include
mention of the matrix channel as part of the website rename blog post.
# Actions
- Daniel is to prepare an MR about the talk for `subplot-web`
- Lars is to deal with the webserver changes needed for `subplot.tech`
- Lars will write an MR for the website change for `subplot-web`
