[Katello] weekly issue triage meetings?

Was thinking lately that the issue triaging process is currently:

  1. User files issue
  2. Eric triages the issue to either a release or a backlog
  3. Release nanny for a particular release fixes bug, asks someone else
    to fix the bug or is just sits there

In the case of 'it just sitting there' a lot of user issues come in that
are mostly ignored due to the release nanny's other responsibilities.

I would like to get more eyes on the issues and spread the effort to not
just Eric and the release nanny for a given release.

Any thoughts on a weekly triage meeting? The goals would be:

  • assign issues to a given release or the 'backlog'
  • assign issues to be fixed to developers (for current releases)
  • Assign user reported issues to be determined if they are actually bugs
    or environment issues.

This would spread the fixing of bugs to other people and hopefully get
user issues solved more quickly.

Initially I would likely just have an open invite to anyone that wants
to come and may pare it down to some sort of rotation depending on the
number of people that join. We would probably limit it to 1 hour per week.

Thoughts?

I'd like to be involved in triaging. With some instructions on what to do
and how to do it I would be glad to focus on these areas specifically (with
anyone else interested): activation keys, subscriptions, candlepin, repo
enable/disable.

+1 from me. Would we just open a redmine query and work through the list?

There seems to have been some interest, so I've gone ahead and setup a
time on Wednesdays at 5:00 pm UTC (1:00 pm EDT).

We're going to try bluejeans for our triages:

I will add it to the foreman community calendar as well.

Any thoughts on a weekly triage meeting? The goals would be:

  • assign issues to a given release or the ‘backlog’
  • assign issues to be fixed to developers (for current releases)
  • Assign user reported issues to be determined if they are actually bugs

Note due to some scheduling oddities, i had to move this weeks meeting
to Thursday. I kept it at the same time for simplicity.

Normal time & day will resume next week.
