Review and accept previous meeting minutes.

Review last meeting's Action Items

  • suexec-flex https://rt.uwaterloo.ca/Ticket/Display.html?id=950947
    • Is there a .deb package at this point that is ready for distribution?
      • nfish is working on it, progress happening ...
  • SALT bug reported to Canonical and is being tracked (Anthony)
    • Patched package available on depot.cs, 3004.1+dfsg-2.1

New Items

  • CEPH team asking for more analysis help to improve system. Specifically: https://rt.uwaterloo.ca/Ticket/Display.html?id=1270078
    • O asking CEPH team to compile/"regularly re-interpret" a prioritized list of RTs they need assistance with and to actively raise it in relevant venues, such as CSLWG.
    • From a performance/user perspective: issues occur intermittently and are hard to reproduce. So to easily describe causes from a "user" perspective is non-trivial.
    • The communication issues that are embedded in this discussion highlight a lack of "ticket curation". A serious effort is needed along with consistent "local" clean- up/re-prioritization effort within a team.
    • RT hygiene/tools maybe a good topic for the upcoming CSCF lunch and staff meeting: Thursday, Feb 16, 12:00-13:30 in DC1304.
    • There are users that are asking what is going on and whether any work is going on to fix things and when performance will improve. Please advise users that if they feel strongly about an issue and that they think CSCF can help, to contact "CSCF Management" cscfmgm@uwaterloo.ca. Can this be a topic at the upcoming CSCF meeting ? If everyone involved on this topic can spend a few minutes summarizing/discussing things this may help synthesize a "roadmap" that can possibly be broadcast more generally (e.g. emails, MOTD).
