## Feb 4th, 2022 v2 Hack Session

Attendees
* Moritz Johner
* Gustavo Carvalho @gusfcarvalho

#### Topics

recording is available @knelasevero

##### SecretStore Controller
* we want a validation webhook for the SecretStore resource to do static validation
* ~~we should add a interface method ("validate") to check if the store configuration can be considered "valid"~~ - will be done in the [#466](https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/pull/466)

##### Breaking Changes
* figure out how versions are managed/stored in etcd and how they're converted
* we want to draft a "final" version for the CRD before we actually implement the features themselves - that gives us the flexibility to continuously do releases and not block a release until everything is implemented.

##### v1beta1 ExternalSecret Scope
* find & extract (Azure / GetAll mechanic)
* template engine version
* ~~decodeStrategy~~ see https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/pull/674
* ??

##### v1beta1 SecretStore
-> not going to tackle that right now
* We first need to figure out how to implement the decodeStrategy thing, because it touches a lot of points in the codebase.
* path standardization doesn't really justify a whole new version

##### Deprecation Policy
- we basically want to treat our `alpha` as `beta`: provide a upgrade path
- we want to promote to beta1 asap when the CRD and scope is defined
- want to get to GA in 9 months (2nd birthday: 23th November)
- deprecate alpha1 when we release GA
- wait a couple more release then deprecate beta1 aswell

##### Organisational Stuff
* we want to keep track of relevant features for `v1beta1` in the [GitHub Project](https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/projects/3)
