Notes

phab:T424362 Define update process for Toolforge builder/runner images
- For small versions bumps:
  - Should we keep offering two versions?
    - We'll keep a 1-month stable version
    - We'll keep a “latest” which is up to date with what's offered upstream by Heroku
  - How do we update them and how often?
    - Stable version is always 1 month old, so updated monthly
    - Latest will be updated weekly
  - One issue is testing compatibility with all the languages we support
    - We'll trust the “field test” of tools which are set to use the latest version
- For ubuntu version bump (e.g. heroku-24 to heroku-26)
  - Halt all small version bumps for some time (while the ubuntu version bump is ongoing)
  - Follow the same process as last time (phab:T380127#11696394)

Standard items:
- k8s upgrade workgroup progress
  - We are already 2 versions behind
  - Should we keep upgrading the versions constantly through the workgroup?
    - Yes, at least until we figure out a different process
- phab:T194332 Push to deploy beta
  - Fixes have been added to jobs-api
  - Work in progress on the refactor and adding webservices on top
  - Working on a patch to allow to buffer the builds and not fail if the build queue is full
  - Tools Platform will revisit the timeline and publish a plan for the next release phase
- Sustainability score
  - After the publication of the initial assessment, we’ve closed the related KR for now.
  - We are looking to aggregate all related tasks, I believe the next two quarters.
  - This will possibly involve the continuation of individual tool reviews for: osi-approved license, tool metadata, source code publication, not load external resources
- Send reminders to the community this meeting
  - Let's try it out and make sure we moderate the discussion
  - Update the wiki page to set overall meeting purpose
  - Discuss potential of office hours for the team to provide support contributors
  - Channels: mailing lists (cloud, cloud-announce) + `wikimedia-cloud` on IRC (1 week before)
- phab:T430120 Bug in Striker due to Phabricator upgrade
  - Patch available, needs a review
  - Is there a staging environment to try it out?
    - There should be striker in tools-beta
  - We can look into adding Striker to lima-kilo so it can be part of our integrated dev environment
