17:01:17 <hellais> ok let's start with this thing
17:01:19 <hellais> who is here?
17:01:55 <landers> ich
17:01:57 <anadahz> hey!
17:02:22 <nuke-> hi
17:02:38 <sbs> hi!
17:02:54 <alangiu> hi
17:03:25 <isabela> oi
17:03:51 <podgesomehodge> hi
17:04:08 <hellais> most excellent! The OONI boat is rocking today!
17:05:32 <hellais> so what took up your time last week?
17:06:52 <landers> spent a night digging through the ooni-sysadmin and ooni-backend repos; thinking of ways to reduce the ansible-installing-docker-installing-ansible stuff going on. will do more this week. EOF
17:09:14 <hellais> I spent time coordinating a variety of different things: including talking with joe about restoring the pipeline, with brennan about the API and thinking about what to do of the future of OONI.
17:09:26 <hellais> the future is good and there are also free cookies /me thinks
17:09:34 <hellais> EOF
17:09:51 <sbs> as regards me
17:10:00 <sbs> - measurement-kit:
17:10:09 <sbs> - merged: https://github.com/measurement-kit/measurement-kit-app-ios/pull/20
17:10:17 <sbs> - studied lambdas https://github.com/bassosimone/relight
17:10:32 <sbs> - OONI:
17:10:33 <sbs> - merged:
17:10:33 <sbs> - https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-probe/pull/424
17:10:33 <sbs> - opened:
17:10:33 <sbs> - https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-probe/pull/426
17:10:36 <sbs> - https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-probe/pull/425
17:10:50 <sbs> EOF
17:11:31 <podgesomehodge> I'll go next - I also looked through the ooni-sysadmin/ooni-backend repos in order to determine which components are involved in an oonib deployment - afterwards, I looked into what MLab has in terms of open datasets, and how data hosted by them, and related parties can be correlated to data that OONI is collecting.
17:11:32 <podgesomehodge> EOF
17:11:43 <hellais> ah yes I also did some code review and merging, but I have no browser to prove it
17:12:20 <hellais> podgesomehodge: good stuff!
17:12:37 <hellais> podgesomehodge: landers and you should speak. He is now on the pipeline/sysadmin train
17:12:47 * landers pulls horn
17:13:02 <podgesomehodge> There was someone else who was interested in working on API improvements, apart from brennan wasn't there?
17:13:07 <podgesomehodge> bnvk?
17:13:15 <hellais> bnvk == Brennan
17:13:23 <podgesomehodge> Okay, great. Thanks!
17:13:25 <hellais> the full extension of that nick is brennan novak
17:13:39 <podgesomehodge> Gotcha.
17:13:55 <hellais> I will now ask something to isabela, but don't let me stop you from reporting if you wish to report
17:14:18 <hellais> isabela: is there somebody you would need from our side (like share with you the proposal before it's submitted) to make sure Tor is happy with the fellowship proposal?
17:15:00 <hellais> isabela: since it will be me and sbs (Simone Basso from Nexa Center) handling it I think it should not entail any overhead from Tor's side, but we need your approval for the dates (2015-01-01 to 2015-12-31)
17:15:07 <hellais> err
17:15:18 <hellais> 2016-01-01 to 2016-12-31
17:15:24 <hellais> the future!
17:15:59 <isabela> hellais: when are you submitting it?
17:16:19 <hellais> nuke-: when is the deadline?
17:16:39 <nuke-> The deadline is this Friday
17:17:22 <nuke-> I received the acceptance of submitting a full proposal only five days ago
17:18:00 <isabela> oh I see, so you are like in phase 2 or something
17:18:15 <isabela> I think share it with me and roger?
17:18:25 <hellais> isabela: correct. We submitted the application a LONG time ago and now we are in the advanced stage (the final boss)
17:18:26 <nuke-> I'm gonna work on it today and tomorow full time, to have a full draft by Wed and submitting it on Thu
17:18:28 <isabela> he probably does not have the time but just to keep him in the loop
17:18:44 <hellais> isabela: ok we shall do. Can you PM nuke- some emails to share the doc with?
17:18:53 <isabela> yes
17:19:10 <isabela> is it a gdoc?
17:19:16 <nuke-> yes
17:19:19 <hellais> isabela: thanks a lot!
17:19:19 <isabela> ok
17:19:36 <isabela> np
17:19:37 <nuke-> Ok so I will share it on Tuesday or Wednesday. Thanks isabela
17:20:01 <anadahz> so from my side:
17:20:02 <isabela> np!
17:20:40 <anadahz> setup (WIP) the hardware components (bare metal) for OONI API DB
17:20:41 <anadahz> provide support to a number of lepidopter installations deployed in several geographical locations
17:20:44 <anadahz> deployed some manages lepidopters
17:20:45 <anadahz> fixed/improved lepidopter core functionalities scripts and cronjobs
17:20:48 <anadahz> helped juga__ on the psiphon install script
17:20:49 <anadahz> finalized the ansible ooniprobe role on a system without docker: https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-sysadmin/pull/15
17:23:07 <anadahz> EOF
17:23:17 <anadahz> sorry forgot that ^
17:24:44 <hellais> anadahz: epic! thanks for the report back!
17:27:00 <anadahz> there are some admin PRs that are pending for review: https://github.com/thetorproject/ooni-sysadmin/pulls
17:28:14 <hellais> anadahz: can you point to the numbers in prioritised order?
17:28:41 <hellais> we should also update the roadmap since we have not done that yet
17:28:49 <hellais> I will be in Berlin tomorrow so we can discuss this IRL
17:29:19 <anadahz> hellais: https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-sysadmin/pull/14 https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-sysadmin/pull/15 https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-sysadmin/pull/11
17:29:26 <hellais> arg
17:29:33 <hellais> anadahz: if you paste them one per line the bot will reply
17:29:38 <hellais> #14
17:29:45 <hellais> https://github.com/TheTorProject/ooni-sysadmin/pull/14
17:29:52 <hellais> no bot love today?
17:29:59 <hellais> aah, it's on a non monitored repo
17:30:12 <podgesomehodge> The future is weird. :/
17:30:17 <hellais> I will get the weasel to do it
17:30:25 <hellais> podgesomehodge: #agreed
17:30:48 <hellais> uncertain for sure, but given recent events also very weird.
17:31:00 <hellais> though we are not in the business of politics at the moment :P
17:31:54 <hellais> are there any other topics you think we should put on the table for discussion now?
17:32:53 <anadahz> yes, how are annotations work in ooniprone?
17:33:31 <hellais> anadahz: ooniprobe --help
17:33:46 <anadahz> tried to add the -a (annotate) parameter with a key in this format blah:000 but wasn't added to the report
17:34:11 <hellais> anadahz: weird. Then I can only point you to the source luke
17:34:24 <hellais> it should, in theory, end up in the report header
17:34:35 <hellais> I didn't develop that feature though so I don't remember how it was
17:35:31 <anadahz> there is too less documentation regarding annotations
17:35:55 <anadahz> and it's a feauture that has been asked for some time..
17:38:18 <hellais> anadahz: pull requests are always nice for documentation ^_^
17:39:12 <anadahz> hellais: agree!
17:39:13 <hellais> are there any other topics to discuss?
17:39:54 <hellais> pull requests for documentations are the best actually! Since they require a long time to write and not that much though to merge. I love them so much you peeps can't even imagine!
17:43:14 <anadahz> isabela: any news regarding OTF?
17:44:15 <isabela> anadahz: about what exactly
17:44:58 <anadahz> isabela: OONI's project proposal
17:45:32 <isabela> ah, no not yet, but I am trying to have a call with them soon and I will ask about it
17:45:59 <isabela> because we are starting our second year with them on the TBB/core tor project
17:46:45 <hellais> I should also ping them about this tbh
17:46:50 <hellais> I just have been overworked
17:47:07 <hellais> if somebody helped out more with the sysadmin tasks and there was more communication on IRC this could happen
17:51:41 <hellais> anyways I guess we should do the next steps
17:51:51 <hellais> I will try to touch base with OTF about the proposal state
17:52:15 <hellais> then I will continue helping out landers and bnvk to work on the backend stuff
17:52:40 <hellais> also I will be busy doing a lot of meetings in Berlin to futurise the future of the Open Observatory
17:56:35 <hellais> other people want to share theirs?
17:58:21 <anadahz> I 'll be working again on the hardware components this week
17:59:01 <anadahz> Determine a nice way to remove the older uploaded reports from lepidopter
18:00:17 <anadahz> Continue enhancing/cleaning ooniprobe documentation
18:00:29 <anadahz> EOF
18:00:30 <landers> i think i'll try to get the ooni-api up on ec2 instead of heroku, and streamline the -backend and -sysadmin repos also, as it seems someone a few pages up ^ was trying to get that running
18:01:52 <landers> eof
18:02:13 <sbs> I need to study more of JNI to make sure the JNI api I've sketched out is correct EOF
18:02:24 <nuke-> I'm working on the fellowship proposal, to be submitted in three days. After this I will have more clear the objectives for the next year. That will not be only finishing iOS and Android app but also to make one or two frameworks to be easily integrated by any developer.
18:02:41 <hellais> purrfect :)
18:02:48 <nuke-> Will keep you updated about the proposal.
18:02:49 <nuke-> EOF
18:02:56 <hellais> thank you all for your time
18:03:10 <hellais> unless somebody else snipers this I am going to close the meeting just 3 minutes overtime
18:03:32 <hellais> 4 - 3 - 2 - 1
