Palm.2

@Jorge Londoño

Palm.2: Wed 2023-08-09

  • Review the board over the coming weeks

  • We have two months

10m

Know issues

@Peter Pinch

What should “known issues” mean in the release notes? From a comment on

🌴 Palm has been released!

  • Include the issue mentioned mentioned above

  • @Adolfo Brandes suggests a criteria: if somebody says they can’t upgrade to the release in question because of a bug, we should add that to the known issues section

  • @Peter Pinch will word a response to what is the criteria

 

Rename release branches?

@Ned Batchelder (Deactivated)

  • Build-Test-Release Working Group • openedx

  • @Ned Batchelder (Deactivated) suggests we should do some discovery on this:

    • What is the new naming scheme?

    • Is it available?

    • How do we execute the migration?

    • When do we execute the migration? (Probably not in the last month before Quice)

  • We need an owner: @Jorge Londoño will reach out to @Régis Behmo to ask if he’d like to lead this effort

 

Palm Post-mortem

@Peter Pinch

  • @Jorge Londoño will be in charge of leading the retro, will announce in Slack or Discuss

 

Quince MFEs

@Peter Pinch

  • Learner Dashboard

    • Depends on a maintained credentials Tutor plugin; Edly has seemingly picked it up

  • Learner Record

    • Depends on upstream being included in maintainer’s pilot (plus merging fixes)

  • Publisher?

  • Support tools?

  • Studio?

    • Being added to frontend-app-course-authoring as we speak; we might get some experimental pages by Quince

 

Inconsistency in feature flags

@Peter Pinch

  • Some are controlled by Feature Flags, some by Waffle Flags, and some have dedicated settings

  • If it’s properly annotated in the code it should appear in the technical documentation

    • We’re not sure, though usually Waffle Flags do work

    • @Ghassan Maslamani will ressurect an old PR to restart this conversation

    • Some omissions in the output docs. Example.

  • @Ghassan Maslamani suggests updating OEP-17
