This is the recap from the meeting on 2021-01-11. ## Text Overview Unfortunately, I won’t be sharing text overviews for the next couple of community meetups. Due to some personal issues I’m struggling with at the moment, I’m unable to consistently finish up and share the text overview. This is delaying my posting of the recap, unfortunately. Accordingly, I’m choosing not to share the text overviews, for now, in order to better post the video recording 24 to 48 hours after the meetup. ## Video Recording > **[GMT20220111-150114\_Recording\_gallery\_1280x720.mp4](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HMw6k6eBA5BU-t6IcinVd4eqVf3Xm1MH/view?usp=sharing)** > > Google Drive file.

Working Groups Follow-Ups:** - **Marketing:** -Main focus on the Open edX Conference -[Ongoing tutorial videos for new users](https://trello.com/c/yzfy5Fia/145-create-a-list-of-video-how-to-topics?filter=label:Agendas) -Demo Open edX: eduNEXT is already working on that -Open edX survey: Open until the end of March - **Frontend:** -BTR working group has been recommended as the gatekeeper for new MFEs. Pending proper OEP for this. -Frontend working group meeting time will change. There is a [survey](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/core-contributor-sprint-retro-march-4-18th/6876) to decide the best time. -[Discovery on MFE pain points](https://github.com/openedx/tcril-engineering/issues/146). Reaching out to several members of the community. - **Data:** -Research on next-gen Insights -[Notes](https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/COMM/pages/3343810573/Data+WG+2022-03-10+Meeting+Notes) from the last meeting. - **DEPR:** -[Elastic search](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/deprecation-removal-depr-170-move-from-elasticsearch-to-opensearch/5844) -[Ongoing DEPR projects](https://github.com/orgs/openedx/projects/9) - **Product:** -Kick-off meeting during the conference -Getting the community roadmap up and running will be the first objective of the wg for the first three months -First milestone - [Template](https://github.com/openedx/tcril-engineering/issues/193) for adding issues to the roadmap. ### **3. Events:** Open edX Conference: There will be a virtual event as well for the people that cannot attend the event. ### **4. Projects:** - Node 16: Ongoing hard work. It has been more complex than expected. Call for help from the community in case there is any spare capacity that could be used to push this project: [Node 16 Upgrade & Shared Browserslist Config - Google Sheets](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fduFbAxIbckiwHKNCtc41ImAL_CFIl9hZcC4AjDkuvI/edit#gid=0) - Django events: One PR at a time. Seven new filters to be merged, 6 to go. ### **5. Improvements and blockers - Retrospective** #### 1. Async channels seem kinda quiet. Is that because everyone’s humming along just fine? **Conclusions:** - This might be related to the workload from each person’s main job. - The discussion around this topic should keep going in Discuss since it seems there is not a clear root cause nor an action point yet. #### 2. Getting feedback/reviews for OSPRs is as always a challenge **Conclusions:** - It is difficult to find someone who has enough experience to review that. It could be useful to have a community expert directory to know who is an expert on what to reach out to the correct person: [OEP-56: Architectural Advisory Process](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/oep-56-architectural-advisory-process/6733) - Using [OEP-55](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/oep-55-project-maintainers/6891) could be useful. - People become experts without knowing they became experts. Building confidence is a point to be considered. - If you have done enough to get the community informed about the changes you are trying to implement and even with that, you don’t get enough feedback/reviews, you should trust your gut and go ahead. If it’s broken, someone will raise her hand and put a spotlight on it. - Encouraging people to review even if they are not experts is a great way to start acquiring expertise - Having reasonable deadlines in place for a review could be a good approach to encourage people to do it and also to resolve the blocker in case the lack of reviews and feedback is preventing the PR from being merged. At the end of that deadline, you should feel comfortable getting the PR merged. - Even if you don’t have the ability to provide an improving review it does not mean you can’t give a review #### 3. I’m difficulty assign something from BTR board to myself or moving issue assigned to me from in progress to Done. How we can improve these how I can perform these tasks myself? **Conclusions:** - If you don’t have the right access to the repository where the issue is you cannot self-assign or assign that person. However, if that person comments and says “you can assign this to me”, that person will get the issue assigned. #### Further information: [Core Contributor Sprint Retro - March 4-18th](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/core-contributor-sprint-retro-march-4-18th/6876) ## Next meetup Tuesday April 5th at 15:00 UTC ([Timezone converter](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Open+edX+Contributors+Meetup&iso=20220222T15&p1=1440&ah=1)).

Thanks for the extended notes, @jalondonot! I know from experience they’re not easy to distill. IMHO they’re very useful, though: scanning text beats scanning video any day of the week. ---

@jalondonot Thanks! Great recap, especially of the points of the sprints retro – I posted it and replied about its elements at: > [@Core Contributor Sprint Retro - March 4-18th](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/core-contributor-sprint-retro-march-4-18th/6876/4): > > We discussed the three blockers with the most votes during the [last Contributors meetup](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/open-edx-contributors-meetup/1450/87#h-5-improvements-and-blockers-retrospective-8) on Tuesday – @jalondonot did an amazing job summing them up in the meeting recap: We agreed to see how it goes, as well as to encourage bringing up any blocker or issue around CC work. =\> I posted a question related to this in the OEP, about whether maintainers would be required to provide reviews: [https://github.com/openedx/open-edx-proposals/pull/290#discussion\_r834141344](https://github.com/openedx/open-edx-proposals/pull/290#discussion_r834141344) .

Events:** Open edX Conference: There will be a few talks that will be streamed. The details will be specified in the [agenda](https://openedx2022.sched.com/) of the event. ### **4. Projects:** Django events (@mgmdi - @Felipe): One PR at a time. 4 PRs to go out of the 7 PRs from the initial scope of the project. ### **5. Improvements and Calls/offers for help (@antoviaque)** #### “I want more visibility into the development/support status of components, especially MFEs. If a legacy frontend is being rewritten as an MFE, I think there should be a DEPR ticket for the legacy frontend from the get-go.” **Conclusions:** - There is no clear nor a specific roadmap or approach for this but the issue is well identified and the working groups are open to any suggestions. The DEPR working group will discuss this at the next meeting to improve the visibility of what is being removed and what is replacing it. - The process for deprecating should be revisited considering that the real community using Open edX around the world is larger than the one that is actively participating on the community channels. - A deprecation digest might be a good idea. Improving the information radiators that are currently in place seems to be a good approach for this. - Deprecations should be included in the roadmap and prioritized in terms of user and product impact #### "Discuss posts (Core contributors sprint & meetup) have helpful information, but I haven’t found the time to read through them thoroughly. So I should include that as part of my CC tasks. I reviewed a PR (since it fixed an issue I was having) and then realized it already had an assignee on the Jira board (I then @ the assignee to let him know). What should we do in that case?" **Conclusions:** - Tagging the assignee and letting her know you gave a review is the best approach for this scenario. #### **Further information in [Core Contributor Sprint Retro - March 18th-April 1st](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/core-contributor-sprint-retro-march-18th-april-1st/6941)** ## Next meetup Tuesday April 19th at 15:00 UTC ([Timezone converter](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Open+edX+Contributors+Meetup&iso=20220222T15&p1=1440&ah=1)).

In the [discovery documentation](https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OEPM/pages/3389849714/Discovery+Proposal+Open+edX+Documentation+Restructure), we talk about how we approached the work, what we learned and where we think we should go… ### **5.

At present there are only basic test cases for the Studio and LMS.What about unique XBlocks, plugins, devops, global admin, and other areas that we need to create test cases for?

I will bring this up in the meetups too. | @Dean " **Feedback:** - Probably, these missing test cases will be figured out during the testing process. #### " I’m hoping that this blockstore PR gets merged this week or next week, and then backported to nutmeg | @pdpinch " **Feedback:** - It should have been merged on Thursday. #### Further information in [Core Contributor Sprint Retro - April 1st-15th](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/core-contributor-sprint-retro-april-1st-15th/7047) ## Next meetup Tuesday May 3rd at 15:00 UTC ([Timezone converter](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Open+edX+Contributors+Meetup&iso=20220222T15&p1=1440&ah=1)).

They require some collaboration from the community to test them. Dean has already reached out to Regis to clarify the next steps on this point. He also found some resources that might be useful if you are interested to help: We need volunteers to upgrade the rest of the plugins. You can upgrade a plugin, and optionally you can also become the maintainer of that plugin for future versions! 🙂 - [cookiecutter-tutor-plugin](https://github.com/overhangio/cookiecutter-tutor-plugin) ( 💔 Not yet upgraded.

Stay tuned! #### Data (@Andres.Aulasneo ): - They held the wg meeting at Open edX Con. It seems there were many newcomers that would help the group to work on the sprint 0 and have a clear work roadmap. #### DEPR (@feanil @dave @idegtiarov ): - tCRIL and Racoongang will accelerate a lot of the DEPR work which will be included in Olive. - Also, there’s some deep-in-the-modulestore cleanup happening as part of BD-13, like [[BD-13][BB-5615] refactor: Delete XModule classes by 0x29a · Pull Request #30262 · openedx/edx-platform · GitHub](https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/pull/30262) #### Product (@jmakowski): - They finally held their first meeting during the conference! - Several interesting and deep topics were discussed at this meeting, such as the core of the platform and product definition, the decision process definition, and what the next steps are for this working group to push the product roadmap and ensure the discussion around it keeps moving forward.

Open edX Con:** - There seems to be a consensus among the community that it went really well! - [Notes from the Friday discussion of Tobie Langel’s points](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BuMwDdsFVto1NLvaUgkJXHgvibzZbmjCuQrMe-v4wTE) - Xavier prepared a [thread](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/open-edx-conference-2022-feedback-thread/7169) to gather some of the feedback people might have about the Open edX Con.

In the next month I would like to line up video content for the CC Onboarding Course, lining up people to participate in creating some video content. Please let me know if you want to be in one! or are at least willing to! T… ### **6. Additional Topics** #### TOC Follow-up (@antoviaque @Andres.Aulasneo ): - There have been 2 informal meetings, to get to know each other a little bit better - The members have different backgrounds and perspectives that could enrich the discussion - It is still at the introductory stage. No big decisions have been made yet. - It would be great if we can increase the engagement of the TOC members inviting them to join the contributors’ meetup from time to time. Xavier will bring this up to the next TOC meeting. #### Last Wednesday was the 7th anniversary of EDUlib! congratulations to @sambapete and all the people involved 😃 ## Next meetup - Tuesday May 17th at 15:00 UTC ([Timezone converter](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Open+edX+Contributors+Meetup&iso=20220222T15&p1=1440&ah=1)). - Details and draft agenda on [the Github board](https://github.com/openedx/community-wg/issues/64). ---

Improvements and Calls/offers for help (@Dean @braden )** - @Dean and @antoviaque prepared a great recap of what was discussed at this point of the meeting: > [@Core Contributor Sprint Retro - May 27th - June 10th](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/core-contributor-sprint-retro-may-27th-june-10th/7504): > > Here is the retrospective for the most recent Core Contributor (CC) sprint: Calls/offers for help This is what the core team needs help on now. Note that anyone can help – you don’t need to be a Core Contributor (yet!) for that: Is there anything where you could use help from others? Or that you would like to collaborate on?

I found that to be really unproductive for me… Specially when I can’t replicate the tests locally i.e. codecov. Is there anything to be done to enhance this experience?”** - @sarina said it is a security matter. There is no way to change this policy, at least for now. It seems getting help from a maintainer or being a [maintaine](https://github.com/openedx/open-edx-proposals/pull/290)r would be the proper approach to do it. Investigating how the CI infrastructure works could be something the community can take a look at, and it might be the next logical step.[https://github.com/openedx/open-edx-proposals/pull/290](https://github.com/openedx/open-edx-proposals/pull/290) **@Andres.Aulasneo: “K8s should have a dedicated space for collaboration. There are many things that are not working, or that need special consideration to implement.”** - For now, taking a look and raising your hand in the [Discuss thread](https://discuss.openedx.org/t/tech-talk-demo-deploying-multiple-open-edx-instances-onto-a-kubernetes-cluster-with-tutor/4641/59) where this is being discussed seems like the best approach. If you think you can lend a hand to any of the core contributors that are blocked, feel free to reach out to them! #### Side note: We now have an [Open edX Working Group Calendar](https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=c_v86shrnegshsqgp4fj2k94u7bc%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America%2FNew_York)! ## Next meetup - Tuesday June 28th at 15:00 UTC ([Timezone converter](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Open+edX+Contributors+Meetup&iso=20220222T15&p1=1440&ah=1)). - Details and draft agenda on [the Github board](https://github.com/openedx/community-wg/issues/67).
