Roll call: who's there and emergencies

Anarcat, Kez, and Lavamind present.

No emergencies.

Roadmap / OKR review

Only one month left to the quarter! Where are we? As a reminder, we generally hope to accomplish 60-70% of OKRs, by design, so they're not supposed to be all done.

TPA OKRs: roughly 17% done

  • mail services work has not started, the RFC proposal took longer than expected and we're waiting on a decision before starting any work
  • Retirements might progress with a gitolite/gitweb retirement RFC spearheaded by anarcat
  • codebase cleanup work has progressed only a little, often gets pushed to the side by emergencies
  • Bullseye upgrades has only 6 machines left in the second batch. We need to close 3 more tickets to get at 60% on that OKR, and that's actually likely: the second batch is likely to finish by the end of the month, the primary ganeti cluster upgrade is planned, and the PostgreSQL warnings will be done today
  • High-performance cluster: "New Relic" is giving away money, we need to write a grant proposal in 3 days though, possibly not going to happen

Web OKRs: 42% done overall!

  • The donate OKR is about 25% complete
  • translation OKR seems complete, no one has any TODO items on that anyways, so considered done (100%!)
  • docs OKR:
    • dev.tpo work hasn't started yet, might be possible to start depending on kez availability?
    • documentation improvement might be good for hack week

Holidays

Update on holiday dates, everyone agrees with the plan. Details are private, see tor-internal emails, and the Nextcloud calendars for the authoritative dates.

This week's All-Hands

  • lavamind will talk about the blog

  • if there is still time after, we can open for comments or questions about the mail proposal

Dashboard review

We looked at the global dashboards:

... and per-user dashboards, not much to reshuffle.

Icinga vs Prometheus again

Validate requirements, discuss the alternatives. Requirements weren't ready, postponed.

Other discussions

No other discussion came up.

Next meeting

Next meeting is on a tuesday because of the holiday, we should talk about OKRs again, and the Icinga vs Prometheus question.

Upgrade prediction graph lives at https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/howto/upgrades/bullseye/

We have managed to still speed up our upgrades progression from last time, moving from December to October as a predicted completion date. That's not as fast as last estimate (2 years acceleration!) but it's still quite satisfying.
