 Welcome, everyone. This is the 12th of May 2023. These are Asia Docs Office Hours for Asia Topics on my list pipeline steps reference Google Summer of Code end of life Notifications early end of life for Cento 7. That's about it for right now. Oh one more. I take it back one more, which is Java transition from the Java documentation transition from 17 excuse me It is raining in Colorado right now and therefore my nose is a little bit offset. Hmm. Okay. Thanks Any other topics that need to go on the list Chris any particular ones that you wanted to be sure we address or Meg? No, no Okay. Well, so delighted to share that the the problem that we had noted last week in the pipeline steps reference is now is now Safeguarded so that the changes that are proposed will fail a test if they introduce the problem So what that means is this page? So if we look at the documentation for Jenkins pipeline and we look at the pipeline steps reference And we search for check out The section nested choice of objects is not empty That's a plus. We like that Now the what that means though is that there are some blocked pull requests right now in Let's see in the pipeline steps doc generator and they're blocked because they're failing this test So we can continue for quite a while Where we'll be looking for some we are actively looking for someone who'd be willing to diagnose it V Hanthora has confirmed that he can see it, but he doesn't have time right now to do the diagnosis Okay Any questions go ahead. Yeah, I may want to I may I may be able to help of this But I just want some of them point is Sorry, I missed the last sentence there Chris. What was your question your comment on the last? So I may be able to help over this, but I may need some pointers like how to put is it? Yeah, so the so the details are in the Details on how to duplicate it Are in the support ticket? Or in the help desk ticket and let's get a link to that but in terms of Priority, I'm not overly concerned about it Chris because we could go for a long time with that Being a problem and not have any real impact on users So I'm I'm much less concerned about that than for instance your work on the on the git client Get on the git get lab plug-in, right? Okay. Oh this one. No, wait. Oh, no, I'm sorry wrong site. It's not here. It's The one we need to look at is on the Jenkins.io site And here we see this right so it's got Instructions on how to duplicate it in one of these pull requests There we go. All right, thank you anything else on pipeline steps reference okay, next topic then is Google summer of code and Congratulations, thanks very much Chris for your work on it We've got the announcement out that there are four projects git lab plug-in modernization adding probes to plug-in health score Building Jenkins.io with alternate alternative tools and Docker base Jenkins quick start examples Right now. We've got one of those that has had an update on its Jenkins.io page. The others are getting started This is exam season in India and so a number of our new contributors are At the moment very deep in their exams But we're looking forward over the course of the next week or two for them to finish their exams and be ready to Begin their their work on Google summer of code Anything you want to highlight there Chris Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah, so it's like we have a time frame for For the bonding period. So we have a checklist set but we send it out later to all the mentors Good point, right? So community bonding period has started It has a it ends is it ends in early May 28. Oh ends May 28. Okay. Good and Checklists being sent to the mentors or has been sent, right if I remember it's just being reviewed now Okay has been reviewed and will be sent to mentors. Good. Yep. Yep. All right Thanks very much to the org admin team. I I I loved The experience going through the first checklist that was sent In our first meeting with with harsh Pratap Singh. Yeah, I thought it went very very well specifically because of that checklist Okay Great anything else on Google summer of code I mean not Catch no not really Next topic then Java documentation transition from Java 11 to Java 17 Kevin Martens has started the the project He will submit a draft pull request With work in progress You can find the issue See, how do we do that the issue for reference purposes is in the Jenkins.io Issue list here it is good and And he included a list of pages that need updates and has some notes on Various observations things where hey, how should we handle this part or this part? Any questions or concerns there? No, okay Next topic then was this end of life notifications and I'm pleased to say that there've been Positive feedback on the idea in the pull request the pull request itself needs significant rework It's it's done sort of backwards from what we really need But even with it being backwards the prototype is is adequate for the idea and And the idea let's see. Let's get me with that adequate idea will just That was not it Here we go this one so it's it's got a screenshot of of how it will feel to the user etc and rework of that is probably two or three weeks away then then we'll it'll go out in a weekly and then About what is it July or August? It will become available in the next LTS after 2.401 That's all that I had any questions on that one No, okay next one then early end of life for Centos 7. Let's be more precise Red Hat oops Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and its derivatives Like scientific Linux oracle Linux 7 oracle Linux 7 Centos 7 etc so no negative responses to the message to the developer list and there's an additional article from a Very popular open-source author out in the community note in the in the general open-source world Noting that other projects like cPanel are dropping support early as well So we're not the only ones who'll be dropping support before the official end of life Any other topics you want to bring to the meeting today? No, I'm good Alright, I'm gonna go ahead and call us a day for today. I've got some other things I've got to do development-wise and then I'm gonna get some sleep Thanks to both of you good for you. Thank you. Have a good week everybody you too
