Hi everyone,
Welcome (back!) to the CPE team weekly project update mail!
There was a break on this email blast of two weeks to facilitate team travel to DevConf & FosDem, but we are back in action again from this week onwards :)
Background:
The Community Platform Engineering group is the Red Hat team combining IT and release engineering from Fedora and CentOS. Our goal is to keep core servers and services running and maintained, build releases, and other strategic tasks that need more dedicated time than volunteers can give.
For better communication, we will be giving weekly reports to the CentOS and Fedora communities about the general tasks and work being done. Also for better communication between our groups we have created #redhat-cpe on Freenode IRC! Please feel free to catch us there, a mail has landed on both the CentOS and Fedora devel lists with context here.
High Level Project Updates:
CentOS
Due to team members traveling home from DevConf & FOSDEM, we don't have many CentOS updates this week!
At the CentOS Dojo, we had a talk about DNS in centos.org and letsencrypt dns challenges.
Some of the team also manned the booth at Fosdem.
Fedora
AAA Replacement
The team have been working on replacing the current FAS solution and Rick Elrod presented their work to date at DevConf.cz
They are currently having open discussion about account migrations to make sure there is a plan in place in time
We are also scoping the work involved to have CentOS use this account system also - more details to follow on this soon!
General Updates
The GitForge ODF document is still open for consideration and comment until Monday 10th February 2020.
There is some discussion on emails sent to both Fedora & CentOS devel lists, so please take a look and we look forward to hearing your feedback!
CI/CD
Release/Changelog
We have worked on the logic to find the next release for a package based on the build history
https://pagure.io/Fedora-Infra/generate_changelog/blob/master/f/next_build.p...
We have a POC of a script that generates a changelog from a git commit history
https://pagure.io/Fedora-Infra/generate_changelog/blob/master/f/generate_cha...
We are looking more into rpm macros vs rpm variable
We are looking at deploying a local koji instance so we can test our POC work there before looking at pushing it to stg
Monitoring-gating
A script for single-build running in communishift for now
Single-build currently fails in staging: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/8611
The multi-build monitoring script has been ported to the new structure
Sustaining
Kick off happening this week
The team are planning to work on
Infra and Releng tickets
Mbbox upgrade
Application Retirements
Elections
Move to communishift is on hold till the GDPR situation is clear
Fedocal
Jlanda wants to try different approach due to permission errors - no new update https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/8274
No progress on kanban board - looks abandoned https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/fedora-calendar/kanban
Nuancier
PR from sebwoj - no update
Benson Muite is now working on OIDC authentication
Did some changes
Trying to figure out, how to test these changes
Misc Updates
Pagure
Improvements around the pagure API tokens were made this week
Single template for the two pages
Include a link to where the token can be renewed in the email
Add the possibility to set your own expiration date (up to 2 years)
A couple of bugs were fixed in the /groups API endpoint that were preventing the Fedora-Infra group from being added to some projects…
Anyita
Deploy new version of Anitya on production - 0.18.0 is now live
Move Anitya to fedora-infra
The-new-hotness
Continue working on Packit PR for the-new-hotness - https://github.com/fedora-infra/the-new-hotness/pull/235 (currently on hold, need some changes in the packit itself https://github.com/packit-service/packit/issues/689)
Update OpenShift deployment config for the-new-hotness (Don’t trigger build on config change automatically - this prevent double building on new release)
Cleaning the-new-hotness issue tracker - 5 issues closed
Fedora-flatpack
Fix in Packit (https://github.com/packit-service/packit/pull/682)
Report few issues for flatpak-module-tools (Fedora flatpak)

Note:
This document is currently built from individual reports rolled into a document which we edit and copy into a final document. We are aware that this causes problems with some email readers, and are working on a method to make this less problematic.
