Delivery Circle - 5/6 November 2024

Discussion topics

How to proceed with Ubuntu upgrades:

i) Number of hours has been exceeded on this task - so for now, let’s go for UK and DE, as these are paid

ii) BE waiting to be upgraded as well (also paid)

iii) Ireland paid but did the upgrade themselves - we need to check back with them on this

iv) We need to be able to finance Ansible upgrade and OFN install to be able to upgrade Ubuntu to a version which has support, for a longer time (if we choose to go down this path)

v) we need a Discourse post, to clarify the situation - David to add some info on this:

→ Which servers would stop having support / when - would be great to have an overlook document on this; If possible, add an estimate for which upgrade (how many dev hours)

vi) As to the estimate on how to get to the latest version: that requires some decision making. So, we might need to re-write scripts to use Docker instead of Ansible (which requires an upgrade, too), together with other devs @maikel and @gaetan.

→ Test ready column - some PRs are hanging for a while now
@filipefurtado and @Rachel to have a look at them

@dcook :beer:

Focusing on server upgrades - Canada went live - yayy!
Starder working on UK and Germany, waiting for the OK from instance managers
So, things in Code Review will not
Bugsnag issue seems not critical
This week: UK and DE
Next week: BE
(Katuma and US still on Ubuntu 18)
AU-staging: would need upgraded as well, but would need some othere hosting service

@Gaetan

Fixed an issue with the CA server
VINE Voucher PR completed
S2 assigned on shipping fees, to be completed
Bugsnag triggered by Hungarian instance, needs follow-up, related to a setup issue - probably not a priority, since it only happened once - will ping the instance to check configuration
Set up Metabase for Australia Vine staging and production server (useful to create an issue)
Some estimates to be done

@filipefurtado

No updates, testing what appears on the test-ready column and drafting releases
