    • Read CD book chapter 14.

  • What I plan to do this week
    • Review the new workboard and open/update/close/move any tickets that are relevant to me.
    • Finish CI assisting services: controller, and possibly various things need fixing. Goal is that by Friday, the prototype can be tested by at least one releng team volunteer.
    • Finish reading CD book. Atend book club.
    • Carch up on pending email from last week (INBOX currently at 13).
    • Respond to a little more CI architecture feedback I've received.
    • Sketch a short CI progress report and find somewhere suitable to publish it.
  • What I'm blocked on
    • I am a hacker of very little brain
  • Other?
    • Would someone like to volunteer to test the CI prototype for some toy project? I.e., from source in a git repor somewhere, have CI prototype build something, and publish it on a mock test environment as a static file.
    • Where would be a good place to publish a "new CI progress report"?
    • Do we want to upgrade Zuul to v3 at least temporarily to avoid hitting Python2 EOL? Raised by Antoine last week.
