Thread: Commit fest manager for 2020-03
Hi all, The next commit fets is going to begin in a couple of days, and there is a total of 207 patches registered as of today. We don't have any manager yet, so is there any volunteer for taking the lead this time? Thanks, -- Michael

I'm not sure it would be a good use of resources to have the release team performing CFM duties directly. They will have enough on their plate and in any case I don't think the team has been announced yet. Regards, -- -David david@pgmasters.net

They will haveenough on their plate Absolutely, combining CFM and RM duties will make one of them (or both) suffer a lack of attention. cheers ./daniel

I don't think anyone particular was mentioned / proposed at the FOSDEM dev meeting. It might be a good idea to decide that before the last CF too. regards -- Tomas Vondra http://www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services

We didn't, we only discussed (based on feedback from previous RMTs) that having some level of timezone overlap between the members makes for shorter roundtrips in communication. cheers ./daniel

The Release Team hasn't been picked yet. In past years I think
we've chosen them at the PGCon dev meeting. So really, there's no
overlap --- the CF will be done before we need the RT.
Having said that, if you want to do it, that's great.

I think there was some discussion about the members at/after the FOSDEM dev meeting. The overlap with CFM duties is still fairly minimal, and there's not much for RMT to do before the end of the last CF anyway ...

Waiting until PGCon if a bad idea, because we need to decide the feature freeze deadline after the last CF, and this decision is taken mainly by the RMT. I think that it is also good to begin categorizing open items and handle them when reported. -- Michael

As I recall, the RMT assembles around the time the last CF is over. Last year it was announced on March 30th, which is the latest date it has ever happened.
