## Parking lot

Here is a place to park discussions that would be nice to have later:

* [discussed #2] Are there plugins, that reuse publication artifacts across publications?
* Background: For pulp_deb the time to generate package indices (metadata files generated by pulp_deb during publication) is a significant part of the total time for a standard sync + publish workflow.
* Often the previous repo version has already been published, and only a few new packages have been added since then.
* The Idea is to re-use the package index publication artifact from the previous version, and just extend it by the newly added packages, rather than regenerating the entire thing from scratch.
* The idea theoretically will work, but it will have lots of stumbling blocks to overcome along the way.
* [discussed #4] Strategic Project Discussion
* What medium-to-large project-wide activities can Pulp undertake to create more value for existing users or add new users?
* For example:
* audit the testing we have project-wide and then make it better
* bring all of the docs sites into one site
* What's the most strategic goal?
* Options:
* Bringing in new users?
* Helping existing users?
* Having existing who use certain plugins also use other plugins?
* What's the best return on our time investment?
* Some new users don't know about artifact distribution, others already do because they use proprietary competitors
* Latter would be served by migration instructions
* [davidd] As an existing user, Pulp has served them well and it's been stable.
* Issues have been worked around successfully.
* So focus on acquiring more users.
* [ipanova]
* Some new users cannot migrate to Pulp because there's some missing features
* Some new users may not be aware of our existing features. Blog writing perhaps?
* it seems that there is an agreement on the need to acquire new users, more promotion of project is needed
* it does not mean that we will only write docs and blog posts but it is a tech debt we would need to address
* gap analysis to see what prevents users to move to pulp from other similar projects, incl. a migration
* implementation of those gaps
* [lubos] More consistency with feature support rather than new content types. Like all default plugins support domains.
* [bmbouter] Add a table to the website with the list of plugins and their features?
* [bmbouter] The main advantage to Pulp (compared to other open source) is that it supports all different content types
* It's easier to get users who understand the value of an artifact repository than those who do not already
* [discussed #1] Safely cleaning up content/repo versions (davidd)
* Problem: we need to clean up old repo versions, their publications, and content
* But those repo version/publications might be distributed
* More info: https://github.com/pulp/pulpcore/issues/2705#issuecomment-1351364685
* If you publish a repo version and distribute it, if a user changes it, it can be deleted by retain-repo-versions setting
* If the publication gets deleted, the distribution will be left pointing to nothing
* Solution: We'll protect distributed repo versions from automatic deletions when retain-repo-versions is set
* [discussed #3] Continuation of quba42's "subrepository" discussion
* see https://hackmd.io/KxYx73feSVeQkGD2xLNubg
* [discussed #5] [Single docs site discussion](https://hackmd.io/FGnV_k2JTfOmIZgVZA1NuQ?edit) from yesterday
* Can Pulp move away from setup.py to PEP-517 build processes?
* "dev env" comment from https://hackmd.io/@pulp/pulpcon2023_pain_points
* potentially resolved by improving docs
* currently no specifics from davidd
* Let's talk about Shared Goals as a project
* docs
* dev-setup
* user-experience
* ???
* [mikedep333] Parking Lot should be renamed to Rail Yard
* -your topic and relevant context here-
