Meeting notes

Were there any notes taken, besides ppt doc - Google Docs ? We might have forgotten to assign a scribe to take notes and post a recap afterwards, I’ll add an item to the agenda to remember to do this next time.

The main takeaways were:

  • We confirmed that we are in agreement to pursue the approach from the current prototype, collaborating on it as a group, within the Open edX project
  • Since the proposal is becoming more concrete, we want to make sure everyone in the community has a chance to see this, as well as review and comment, so we’ll be opening a formal review period of the OEP update proposal - @Felipe will be posting a dedicated announcement thread about this shortly.
  • During this review period, we will keep working on the prototype, to fully validate that it addresses the issues we have identified. To do so, a list of tasks has been established and split between members of the group - kudos to @Felipe @lpm0073 @jhony_avella @MoisesGonzalezS @keithgg for each taking on a task on this! (and to @braden for all the work on the prototype)
  • To make it clear that this is a community effort done within the Open edX project, rather than any specific provider’s own project, we are looking into moving the prototype repo to the openedx org on github

Agenda

Proposed agenda, based on the items mentioned during the last meeting:

  1. Assign scribe role, greetings & introductions as needed (5 minutes)

  2. Kubernetes, Tutor & Helm (30 minutes) - Debrief of the work from the tasks list & formal review

  3. Tutor improvements (10 minutes) - Are there issues or blockers that people face with Tutor, which wouldn’t already be addressed by the current initiative?

  4. DevOps Working Group (10 minutes) - Continue discussing scope for a DevOps working group

  5. Next steps & conclusion (5 minutes)

This is a temporary agenda - post changes/items as a reply here If we can have 2U engineers joining, we could carve out some time to discuss what 2U is currently doing and current needs (same thing for any other organization!).
