PulpCon 2022 planning

Nov 7 - 12

Previous year documents:

Goals:

  • expand user base
  • discuss hard problems (focus on the what, not the how)
  • have multiple external users in one room
  • ask stakeholders to share their use cases and needs
  • engagement from pulp users, integration topics

Format:

  • discussions and presentations, speaker's choice
  • unclear on the number of days
  • in any case do 1/2 days at US/EU overlap

Process:

  • Proposals with a deadline
  • then voting with a deadline
  • scheduling - group user and dev oriented talks?

AI: write a post with a CfP (2021 template: https://hackmd.io/ud7GXckSR_yguAk1wD7m1w)
CfP needs to be inviting, but be clear that topics wihtout speaker might not be covered + have an open floor for discussions with users.

Must Talks:

  • [done] 2022 year in review update - rchan/ttereshc
  • [done] Katello usage update - Ian
  • [done] galaxy NG update - davidN
  • [done] oci dev env - davidN
  • [bmbouter requested] state of single container - mike
  • [done] go operator - fabricio ( trying to persuade humberto, maybe co-talk- needs to think)
  • [done] signing and verification usage - container - lmjachky
  • [done] update on testing and running the test suite - dkliban
  • pulp2 EOL and migration plugin EOL - ???
  • [done] running pulp as a service - bmbouter
  • [done] multi-tenancy domains overview - gerrod
  • [done] telemetry talk (let's add a metric live) - bmbouter
  • [done] breaking change policy, backport process - x9c4
  • [done] CLI Ian
  • [done] RBAC - pavel ( said ok)

Maybe talks:

  • Tracing - dalley
  • RPM ecosystem - dalley
    • developer focused, or user focused?
  • Pulp on k8s / microshift (if not covered by operator talk)

CFP Draft

PulpCon 2022 Proposals

PulpCon Dates: November 7-12, 2022
CFP ends: Sept 27, 2022
CFP interest voting: Sept 28 - Oct 7, 2022

PulpCon is coming and we would like to welcome you and encourage to participate in any way you prefer, whether it's presenting, active participation in discussions, or just listening.

To propose a session for PulpCon 2022, please add it to the list below, along with your name. Add an estimated timeframe (30 or 60 min) for the session. Each talk should leave at least 10 min at the end (5 for Q&A and 5 for a break).

The CFP ends on Sept 27th. We'll ask for interest on the topics via a voting that will occur from Sept 28 - Oct 7th.

We are especially interested in:

  • Talks or demos of interest to existing or new Pulp users
  • Talks by users or integrations who use Pulp: pain points, workflows, show-and-tell
  • Discussions of hard problems facing the Pulp community, with an emphasis on the "what" and not the "how"
  • Content of interest to plugin writers

If you have any questions/comments, feel free to add those as nested bullet points too.

Note that we plan to leave some timeslots open for topics that come up during the week of PulpCon.

Talk Proposals:

  • Deadlocks: Fear and Loathing in Postgres - 60 min - ggainey
    • Cover as much as possible of the following:
      • Overview of "why deadlock?!?"
      • Overview of where to find the logs that show the problem
      • Tools for recreating/forcing suspect deadlocks
      • Overview of approaches to solving the problem
      • Examples of deadlock fixes we've already applied (touch()?)
    • Attempt not to weep during the presentation
  • SharedAttributeManagement: Managing Common Settings in One Place - 30 min - ggainey
    • Overview of the problem
    • Demo of the functionality
