Sysadmin meeting minutes for 2008-02-05

Present: davidwboswell (David Boswell), cdn-work (Chris Neale), ericjung (Eric Jung), gjm (Gerry Murphy), silfreed (Douglas Warner), tanker (Michael Dosser)

Discussion was held publically in #mozdev

Discussed developer priorities

  • project search interface is live; needs some tweaks and am coordinating with sysadmins
  • parsing extensions for supported applications is underway; I'll be starting testing soon, then need to create a UI for searching and displaying the extensions per application

Roadmap updates

  • What's left before subversion? What apps are supported by an extension (bug12486), secure installs (bug#17302)
  • ericjung would like to see an online version of mccoy
  • Doug will send a note to the PO list to see if anyone is interested in helping code the backend; if not, we'll try to fit it into the roadmap

Discussed sysadmin priorities

  • stats processing is behind; logs are being generated quicker than being parsed
  • checking on mailman default settings bug#17667

Staging server migration

  • gjm and tanker have some proposals; discussion will continue in the sysadmin list to include all parties
  • being able to support SSL for some subdomains would be helpful - for example, bugzilla - more discussion will occur on-list

Dealing with newsgroups

  • gjm has created a "sanitycheck" python class to verify list/news setup and has lots of "issues found"
