(11:01:21 AM) ***jontourville is here
(11:01:28 AM) ***cboltz hides
(11:01:47 AM) ***jjohansen gets a big spotlight for cboltz
(11:02:15 AM) ***georgiag is here
(11:02:23 AM) ***cboltz cuts the power cord
(11:02:29 AM) sarnold: it can't possibly be time already
(11:06:15 AM) ***cboltz wonders if jjohansen is away, looking for a replacement power cord
(11:07:55 AM) jjohansen: like I could find one in my mess
(11:08:33 AM) jjohansen: I don't see anything on the agenda
(11:08:50 AM) jjohansen: except maybe may's item of synonyms revisited
(11:09:16 AM) cboltz: that, and the 3.0.5 release
(11:09:39 AM) jjohansen: the 3.0.5 release just isn't happening this week, I don't have time for it
(11:09:47 AM) jjohansen: I might have time next week
(11:10:27 AM) jjohansen: I know its really needed, if someone else wants to run with it they are more than welcome to
(11:11:49 AM) jjohansen: synonymos? I don't know. I see arguments for and against
(11:12:04 AM) jjohansen: we have some supported, and those aren't going away
(11:12:19 AM) jjohansen: I think we should try in general to avoid them going forward
(11:13:40 AM) georgiag: I ended up removing the synonyms from module rules because I reviewed it and I felt like it was not adding anything in that particular case
(11:14:11 AM) cboltz: :-)
(11:15:53 AM) sbeattie: ah, nice
(11:16:58 AM) georgiag: it wasn't for module rules, it was the message queue, sorry
(11:17:31 AM) cboltz: I like avoiding synonyms nevertheless ;-)
(11:18:36 AM) jjohansen: so, lets try to avoid them going forward unless there is a really compelling reason to have them.
(11:18:44 AM) jjohansen: do we have anything else to discuss
(11:19:43 AM) cboltz: I've seen the MR that adds nfs test cases - is there also a kernel patch I could test?
(11:19:55 AM) jjohansen: cboltz: yes
(11:20:10 AM) jjohansen: though the patch for cachefs is only a wip
(11:20:33 AM) jjohansen: it adds basic support but not mediation for setting the cache daemon
(11:21:02 AM) jjohansen: we can get those to you as patches if you want to test
(11:21:46 AM) cboltz: can't hurt, and it's been too long since I tried a self-patched kernel anyway ;-)
(11:22:15 AM) cboltz: so please send me [a pointer to] the patches
(11:22:23 AM) jjohansen: ack
(11:22:53 AM) jjohansen: anything else to discuss?
(11:24:22 AM) cboltz: more as a general note - we have quite some old "WIP" MRs which should hopefully get some attention
(11:24:45 AM) cboltz: (just to pick one, attach_disconnected.path would be a nice thing)
(11:26:06 AM) jjohansen: yeah, I will try to get to some of those soon
(11:28:25 AM) cboltz: :-)
(11:29:31 AM) jjohansen: alright I think we are done
(11:29:39 AM) jjohansen: meeting adjourned, thanks everyone
