== Stuff to do every week ==

* Let's check and update the roadmap. What's done, and what's coming up?

url to roadmap: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ufrun1khEo5Cwd6OwngERn829wU3W3eskdrr...

* Check reviewer assignments at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ufrun1khEo5Cwd6OwngERn829wU3W3eskdrr...

* Check rotations at https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/teams/NetworkTeam/TeamRota...

== Announcements ==

* 0.3.4 triage has happened; most things with the 034-removed tag are now gone from 0.3.4; mostly into Unspecified.

* Did I remove anything you loved? Search for "034-removed" to find out!

* In particular, please have a quick look at the "034-removed" tickets in status needs_revision.

* Remember to "/me status: foo" at least once daily.

* Remember that our current code reviews should be done by end-of-week.

* Make sure you are in touch with everybody with whom you are doing 0.3.4.x work.

* Important dates: * Apr 15, 2018 -- 0.3.3.x stable is supposed to be ready! * May 15, 2018 -- 0.3.4.x feature freeze!

* Remember: don't spend more than a day working on anything that isn't on the 033 or 034 milestones.

* When doing the Bug Triage, we must not let ticket without a Milestone. Currently 26 without one...: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/query?status=accepted&status=as... [asn: eek. I take blame for those last ones there! I was a bit confused on whether I should put them on 034 or Unspecified and then inertia took over..] [nickm: This has gotten harder, though, since we stopped using "034" as a catch-all for whatever is maybe-should. Should we talk about where these tickets _should_ go?] [dgoulet: I'll update the TicketTriage page about the 034-proposed keyword in case of doubt for Unspecified] DONE

== Discussion topics ==

* How did all the rotations go last week? - isabela: i want to proposal a rotation retrospective via email so we can document better our feedback so far and adjust the process as needed

* We need to finish all the 033 tickets. How are we going to do this?

* Can we amend our meeting process to say "write updates on a the pad 'before' the meeting?"

== Updates ==

Nick: Last week: * PETS reviews * SoP apps review * Reviewed and merged a lot * Mainloop refactoring tickets for sponsor8. * 0.3.4 triage * 1:1:1 meetings * ED hiring work This week: * Final 0.3.3 ticket cleanup * 0.3.3.x-rc? * Second-round ED interviewing? * 034-CPU work on bucket refill events (dgoulet, let's check in with your current thoughts about events?)

asn: [It's national holidays over here due to orthodox easter. I will probs be somewhere with my family having dinner during the meeting. Sorry about that!] Last week: - Spent more time discussing the 033 guard/dos bug: #25347. In the end I decided that we should NACK the original patch here, because of the potential security implications. My plan is to defer this ticket to 034 for now, except if someone else has a short-term plan for 033. - Reviewed #25581, #25516, #25296. - Reviewed #25705. Ticket needs some more attention now. Mike should we aim for 034 with this one? [Yes, 034 seems fine - Mike] - Assigned reviews with David. - Met with Arlo/dcf/Roger/Tommy to discuss the future of Snowflake. - Did bug triage duty This week: - Hopefully get time to work on the variou 034 deliverables (2-guards, vanguards, etc.) - Another Snowflake meeting on Thursday. - Review #25705. - Figure out what to do for #25347 in 034 timeframe. - Review SoP applications.

See ticket for the dev branch. * Addressed arma's review of #25226. * Initial work on #25375 (remove items from our per-sec. callback) * Was on Coverity duty. One warning but we can ignore it. Unfortunately, scan.coverity.com seems down right now so I can't log in. - This week; * Both my 033 tickets are in needs_review so we'll monitor them closely to get any fixes in quickly. * Continue work on roadmap items, most likely #25375 and #25610. * Need to start an HS discussion with a SoP candidate. * I'm the community hero this week.

haxxpop: - Last week: * Tried to finish the service-side client authorization (but not finished yet) * I have defined some additional structs that is needed to finish the service-side but haven't implemented code to encrypt the descriptor using clients' pubkey - This week: * Finish the service-side by implementing code to encrypt the descriptor * Start the client-side when I finish the previous one

juga: - can't attend today, but back online at 19UTC - Last week: * report and fix (https://github.com/pastly/simple-bw-scanner/) #62, fix #56, #39, #52, #33 * talk more with pastly and teor about how to compare results in testnet * worked on 2nd part #25515 (not commited yet) * try to organize weekly meeting with pastly (https://ethercalc.org/xs6s6k1wfb13 ) teor, pastly,should we try Thursdays at 22UTC?, anyone else can join or say which are prefered times [pastly: Thursdays at 22:00 UTC works for me. teor will most likely be sleeping during this network team meeting. So we should email him or network-team@ about the existence of this meeting] - Next week: * write v3bw format (https://gitweb.torproject.org/torflow.git/tree/NetworkScanners/BwAuthority/R...) with version in https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/dir-list-spec.txt? * comment/fix #64 * more doc and bug fixes in sbws

catalyst: Last week (2018-W14): * community guide rotation: - #23846 (libtool build) - #25549 (appveyor) - following up on cell crypto session from Rome - #25511 (getinfo for utc/local time) * review rotation: - #25511 - #25679 (TOR_RUST_DEPENDENCIES) - #25341 (re-review after Rust 1.25 release) * made some progress on #25061 * recruiting people for Community Council * laptop stand seems to be helping with ergonomics, yay! This week (2018-W15): * bug triage rotation * review rotation

- #24659 review is delayed because it will require me to take some time to learn new things about Rust, which i'm happy to do, but will need a large stretch of uninterrupted time that i should spend on #25061 (which is 033, while #24659 is 034). i'm happy to hand it off to someone with better Rust knowledge if it needs to get reviewed sooner

* work on "approach two" of #25061 ("approach one" should probably be a technical-debt reduction ticket for 034?)

* more cell crypto follow up if needed

* Community Council election discussions if needed
