OpenAFS Release Team weekly meeting

OpenAFS Release Team weekly meeting

Date: February 9, 2023
Participants:
- Stephan Wiesand, OpenAFS Release Manager
- Cheyenne Wills
- Michael Meffie

The OpenAFS Release Team meetings are held on IRC each Thursday at 17:00 UTC
on the #openafs-releaseteam channel of Libera.Chat.

Stable (1.8.x)
==============

Work continues preparing 1.8.10.

More and careful review of 15300 is required.

Stephan asked about 14584 on master, which fixes a possible panic on the client
(due to an assertion).  Cheyenne will pullup 14584 (and 14592 which is related)
to the stable branch in gerrit for review.

A build error was encountered on the buildbot while building 15316, but
Cheyenne reports the build error was not related to that change.  (Looks to be
a missing or incorrect make dependency that can result in a error during
parallel builds. To be investigated.)


Development (1.9.x/master)
==========================

No report this week.
