16:27 <blackboxsw> hi cloud-init folks, it's that happy time again to chat about cloud-init upstream.

16:27 <blackboxsw> Generally the topics we cover in this status meeting are: Previous Actions, Recent Changes, In-progress Development, and Office hours

16:27 <blackboxsw> #topic Previous Actions

16:30 <blackboxsw> previously we had an action to review https://code.launchpad.net/~rjschwei/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/356098. I think rharper and robjo have a couple of back and forths on this branch. looks like we'll be able to land this

16:32 <blackboxsw> and oh noes, we need to followup and resolve the following MD bug on OpenStack https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1801364

16:32 <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1801364 in cloud-init "persisting OpenStack metadata fails" [Undecided,Confirmed]

16:32 <blackboxsw> #action carry over blackboxsw close and land Openstack metadata handling bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1801364

16:32 * meetingology carry over blackboxsw close and land Openstack metadata handling bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1801364

16:32 <robjo> Well that one was just about an additional empty line which I removed in October

16:34 <blackboxsw> ok I'll spend the 2nd half of this meeting going through this again and landing it if no other concerns. #toostale seeing https://code.launchpad.net/~rjschwei/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/356098

16:35 <blackboxsw> it doesn't look on review that there is anything concerning there.

16:36 <blackboxsw> ok I think that we it for actions last time.

16:36 <blackboxsw> #topic Recent Changes

16:36 <robjo> blackboxsw: There's also https://code.launchpad.net/~rjschwei/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/357710

16:36 <robjo> which appears to be complaining about he commit message

16:37 <blackboxsw> robjo: oops autolander rejection, will fix the LP commit message now and make approved (for merging)

16:37 <blackboxsw> Server Team CI bot (server-team-bot) wrote on 2019-01-07: #

16:37 <blackboxsw> Commit message lints:

16:37 <blackboxsw> - Expected empty line on line 2 of the commit message

16:37 <robjo> Can there not be a template in LP for the commit message?

16:38 <robjo> I can never remember the formatting intricacies and thus depend on one of you guys to set this

16:38 <blackboxsw> robjo: does the 'commit message' on the merge proposal look good to you now https://code.launchpad.net/~rjschwei/cloud-init/+git/cloud-init/+merge/357710

16:44 <blackboxsw> the SRU process bug can be watched to see when 18.5.17 publishes to 16.04 18.04 and 18.10. (xenial, bionic, cosmic) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cloud-init/+bug/1813346

16:51 <blackboxsw> #topic Office Hours (next ~30 minutes)
