Hello,
Here is a short summary of the network team meeting from Wednesday the 22nd of January 2020.
1) We started out with roadmap. We went over our Q1 2020 roadmap and checked if everything looked good. Gaba had imported tickets from Trac before the meeting such that all of that was ready.
2) We went over review assignments. Things looked fine.
3) We looked at the 0.4.3 status page. People were asked to make sure that tickets had the 043-must/043-should/043-can keywords and otherwise they will be moved to 0.4.4 planning. Nick and Alex will meet next week and try to distribute some of the tickets out to team members.
4) Nick asked if anybody had any blockers of 0.4.3.x and if not, he would roll an alpha release after the meeting.
5) We talked shortly about the upcoming IPv6 grant (s55): teor is going to be working on this but they are open for other people to join in. There is a planning meeting on 23/01/2020 at 22 UTC for this sponsor.
6) We could use more people that are up for doing merging to master.
7) We discussed some Stem CI issues and how we should handle them.
8) We discussed getting more eyes on sbws. Ideally we should talk with the network health team here too such that they have an idea about what is happening with bandwidth scanning.
9) Nobody had anything else to discuss.
