emccormickWe got meetup 2 template submitted for SK15:08
mihalis68_I don't recall if any of us had actions for Shanghai, but that got done too15:08
mihalis68_ooh!15:08
emccormickTook care of that in Shanghai15:08
mihalis68_thanks to emccormick for being stalwart and running the meetup on the thursday15:09
mihalis68_I left early for reasons that arguably no longer applied, unfortunately15:09
mihalis68_on the agenda I collected the links for the various ops related sessions I know of : the war stories, the meetup itself15:09
mihalis68_if anyone found any other sessions operator relevant please share those links15:09
mihalis68_I also shared a pad smcginnis put together of notes15:10
mihalis68_#link smcginnis's notes https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/PVG-ops-guide15:10
smcginnisThere were some good info sessions I wanted to make sure we captured.15:10
smcginnisIf I can track down the video to those, I will add it to the etherpad.15:10
smcginnisAnd hopefully someday we can get that content incorporated into the ops guide.15:11
mihalis68_well done sean. I added a cold to my jetlag and frankly struggled a little in shanghai15:11
mihalis68_+115:11
mihalis68_I guess we're already on shanghai retrospective15:11

*** openstack changes topic to "shanghai retrospective (Meeting topic: ops-meetup-team)"15:12
emccormicksorry, on a call along with this. lots of stuff is linked off the meetup etherpad15:12
emccormickif you can find that and post it here15:12
mihalis68_yes thanks, was in good shape by the time it came to leave15:12
mihalis68_it's in the agenda, one sec15:12
mihalis68_#link meetup etherpad https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/shanghai-ptg-ops-meetup15:12
mihalis68_I'll have to review that for the learns15:12
mihalis68_any other things to discuss from shanghai?15:13
mihalis68_t-shirts came out way too small15:13
mihalis68_I fwded feedback to jimmy about a session that was described in english on the app but presented in chinese, with no way for an attendee to know to expect that beforehand15:14
emccormickI thought the room they gave us for ops meetup was very nicely set up15:14
emccormickI wish it'd been more full of energetic people, but we had some good discussions15:14
mihalis68_you did what you could with what you had in the time you were given15:15

*** openstack changes topic to "meetup #1 2020 (Meeting topic: ops-meetup-team)"15:16
mihalis68_since I work for the prospective host for this, it would be good if others could make sure we observe the formalities15:16
mihalis68_I'd like to respectfully ask that this proposal be accepted15:16
emccormick+1 to London15:17
emccormickmake it so15:17
smcginnisShould we do a formal vote? Or just yea's and nay's here?15:17
mihalis68_how many are we?15:17
mihalis68_https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/oRuGYkER/15:18
smcginnisI saw spotz earlier. emccormick, you, and me.15:18
spotzhere!15:18
smcginnisIs that enough of a "quorum"?15:18
smcginnisI think so, but just asking.15:18
mihalis68_shintaro responded same day as the proposal went out:15:18
emccormickI can proxy for Shintaro too15:18
mihalis68_https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/4WrQZflW/15:18
emccormickWe discussed in Shanghai15:18
emccormickThere was general consensus and no objections in the room15:19
smcginnisI'm in favor of going forward with London. emccormick, VW, shintaro have all indicated yes.15:19
smcginnisspotz: I think you were in favor too?15:19
spotzYes London!15:19
spotzWish I could go:(15:19
smcginnisMe too15:19
smcginnisI think that's pretty unanimous.15:20
emccormickspotz should put it together with a trip to Luxembourg so she can come ;)15:20
smcginnisAnd stop in Paris on the way between. ;)15:20
spotzI can transfer my credit to London:)15:20

mihalis68_#topic Vancouver15:23
*** openstack changes topic to "Vancouver (Meeting topic: ops-meetup-team)"15:23
emccormickSo now let's get the foundation peeps to immediately get that in the vents calendar15:23
mihalis68_the next summit-like event will be in vancouver, or so I hear. smcginnis?15:24
smcginnisCorrect.15:24
mihalis68_can you share the changes you heard about for that?15:24
smcginnisThough it sounds like Summit-like and more PTG/design summit15:24
mihalis68_and yes, I'll communicate this meetup decision to the foundation15:24
smcginnisThe way it has been described is as a "collaboration focused event"15:24
emccormickForumy15:24
mihalis68_unless someone else wishes to15:24
emccormickgo right ahead Chris15:25
emccormickand tweet / email it too15:25
smcginnisThere will be some presentation time, and maybe a smaller expo hall kind of thing. But the main focus will be Forum/PTG type things.15:25
smcginnisSo smaller than a full blown summit, but more focused on design discussions and the like.15:25
emccormickFeedback from Shanghai was that was a key missing component (the events page) and more specifically the newsletter it feeds into15:25
smcginnisAnd they did explicitly call out operators as a target audience for it.15:25
mihalis68_I'm excited by this15:26
mihalis68_I think it will be a relatively big event for this team15:26
smcginnisI hope so.15:26
mihalis68_the combined summit/forum/ptg things are hard to comprehend from the operators perspective15:26
emccormickI think Vancouver will be full of more regulars so I'd expect a more lively crowd15:27
mihalis68_yeah!15:27
smcginnisI know I've heard a lot more of the usual people excited about Vancouver. More so than they were for China.15:27
emccormickso I'd say lets table worrying too much about Vancover until after London15:28
emccormickor during London15:28
smcginnisApologies to China. ;)15:28
*** pcaruana has joined #openstack-operators15:28
emccormickWell Vancouver's awesome so...15:28
emccormickand starting to feel like home at this point ;)15:28
smcginnisI think the thing we need to do now for Vancouver is make sure this team is pulled into any discussions about how the format of that event should be.15:28
mihalis68_yes, I only wanted to get the news of the change into this meeting for the record, start to get people excited about it15:28
mihalis68_not much to really do just yet15:28
smcginnisOtherwise, yeah, probably not much to do there until after London is out of the way.15:29
emccormickoh, and it sounds like fall in Berlin is in the works. I'm not sure why there again :/15:29
mihalis68_frequent-summiter discount?15:29
smcginnisThat's not official yet.15:29
emccormickjust dirty rumors ;)15:30
smcginnis"Somewhere in Germany" was mentioned in the board meeting, but they have not signed any contracts yet, last I heard.15:30
emccormickMunich please15:30
emccormick:D15:30
smcginnisThat would be nice.15:30
mihalis68_did you say you have a proposal for SK?15:31
emccormickyes yes15:31
emccormickhttps://etherpad.openstack.org/p/ops-meetup-2nd-korea-202015:31
mihalis68_for meetup #215:31
mihalis68_cool. I've put that on the agenda. I will fwd to the community on the mailing list and via twitter15:31
smcginnisLooking at the dates, I don't see any conflicts. At least with the events I'm tracking for next year so far.15:31
mihalis68_I wonder if we should adopt a wechat group as yet another outlet for such news?15:32
smcginnisShould be early enough to avoid conflicting with whatever the Summit event ends up being.15:32
mihalis68_there's a big openstack group15:32
emccormickHe seemed kinda excited about the Jeju possibility15:32
mihalis68_if the mailing list fails to reach many operators even in english, I cannot imagine it's reaching them in china15:32
smcginnisI wonder if it will be possible to get more Chinese operator involvement.15:32
emccormicknot sure who's it is to decide which venue there15:32
emccormickIf that Summit group stays open, maybe that will be a good place to mention it on Wechat15:33
smcginnisWe could mention now that they should watch for updates on the mailing list. That might get some attention at least.15:34
mihalis68_I'll give it a try. OpenStack norms are to do all communication via open channels, but I think we need to consider efficacy too15:34
smcginnisIt's at least semi-open.15:34
mihalis68_twitter has been proven to work, right?15:34
mihalis68_#link https://twitter.com/osopsmeetup15:35
smcginnisFor other than China, I think so.15:35
mihalis68_I'll drop the update about london and sk into that big openstack group on wechat and see if people respond15:35
emccormickWell, adding new channels is fine so long as the open one isn't dropped15:35
smcginnis++15:35
emccormickML can be primary. The others are just for wider visibility15:35
mihalis68_much agree, very correctness. WOW15:35
mihalis68_we've touched on all topics I had, and so...15:36

emccormickhey neat. We got 5 new followers since the Shanghai meetup15:36
mihalis68_I forgot to action myself up to launch the planning process for London15:36
mihalis68_#action mihalis68_ to kick off London 2020 planning15:36
mihalis68_#action mihalis68_ to communicated London 2020 agreement to all channels (and some new ones)15:37
emccormickand foundation to get on calendar15:37
mihalis68_yep15:37
mihalis68_How are we doing with this time slot and meeting cadence?15:38
mihalis68_I once again heard of other teams who swap time slots every other meeting15:38
emccormickseems fine still, though we did lose Shintaro this week15:38
mihalis68_however shintaro continues to claim this is fine, and he's our main or only APAC attendee15:38
smcginnisMost teams I've talked to that swap times have said it's caused confusion and people missing the meeting because they never remember which week it is.15:39
emccormickI'd say we worry about that if we get interest from over that way15:39
smcginnisI could do earlier if that makes it a little friendlier for APAC, but it seems like this time is working well.15:39
mihalis68_yeah, if we decided to do that, I would probably try to use a calendar system and actually force this onto peoples real calendars15:39
emccormicknobody has pointed to the meeting time as a reason for not participating15:40
mihalis68_yeah, I just bring it up regularly because it's almost embarrassing to have a time fixed at 10am EST15:40
smcginnisemccormick: I agree. If we ever hear "I would attend but it's way too late for me", then I think we should think about adjusting. Until we get any sign of that, I don't think it's work this.15:40
mihalis68_ok, guess that's fine for now15:40
smcginnisGood to recheck every once in awhile.15:40
mihalis68_feel like we got a lot done here. Any more?15:41
smcginnisWhat are next steps for London?15:41
smcginnisStart collecting topics in an etherpad? Publicizing the event date?15:41
mihalis68_notify foundation, tweet and email the decision. Start the topic selection15:41
mihalis68_all on me15:41
smcginnisTrying to think through what we can start doing right away so we can try to avoid the crunch right before the event.15:42
mihalis68_to be honest, I will probably pick the sessions that worked well in NYC and use them to form a "probable topics" list immediately15:42
smcginnismihalis68_: Please delegate what you can. I feel bad that you need to do it all.15:42
smcginnisThat sounds like a good plan.15:42
mihalis68_I'm inspired by this: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2007/10/26/evidence-based-scheduling/15:43
emccormickyeah planning etherpad would be good to start up15:43
mihalis68_topics that work at meetups don't need to be suggested again15:43
mihalis68_if there's evidence that a topic works, it's in15:43
mihalis68_that's my new plan15:43
smcginnis++15:43
mihalis68_I don't need to delegate. I took it easy for the shanghai event, on a relative basis15:44
mihalis68_my boss and his boss support me doing this15:44
mihalis68_but thanks :)15:44
smcginnisOK, good. I just don't want you to get overloaded with anything. ;)15:44
mihalis68_nah, i'm good15:44
mihalis68_I want to make London better than NYC15:44
mihalis68_the venue is better15:45
spotzhehehe, it's London:)15:45
mihalis68_the one irritant is the max capacity is 4815:45
smcginnisAny additional overflow rooms a possibility if it ends up being a popular event location?15:45
mihalis68_well I left London for NYC, but ok :)15:45
mihalis68_seems very hard to get15:45
mihalis68_if we get 48, that will be the biggest for several, so it's ok15:46
emccormicktrue15:46
emccormickI'll stand in the corner if it means one more new person gets in15:46
smcginnisYeah, it will be a good problem to have if we need to scramble to find more space.15:46
emccormickor update etherpads from the pub next door15:46
smcginnis;)15:47
mihalis68_oh yeah, I also have to kick the people who will provide the registration web site15:47
mihalis68_since we have to make that15:47
emccormick(it's London so I'm sure there's a pub next door)15:47
emccormickyeah sooner the better on that one15:47
mihalis68_#action mihalis68_ to initiate getting the registration site for London 2020 up and running15:47
mihalis68_think we're done15:48
