Standup Notes 2020 11 18
Participants (alphabetical): Allie, Erik, John, Kevin, Kushal, Mickael, Nina, Ro
- Recap of u2mfn issue https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop-workstation/issues/644
Fix should resolve, but must make sure to switch to apt-test prior to provision-all run
Still aiming to get release out today. We'll notify users to undo salt package pinning, if it is in place, before then.
-
(John) It's difficult to find conversations in the #securedrop channel on Slack. Perhaps we can limit notifications by repo -- have workstation stuff to #securedrop-workstation, other stuff to #securedrop. Or a single channel just for notifications?
-
(Allie) Should we just rely on GitHub's own notification system
-
(Kushal) I find GitHub's notifications very broken, I really like to use Slack. I would vote for a single feed on Slack.
-
(Kev) Is the issue that the conversations get lost between the notifications? Should we direct them somewhere else?
-
(Mickael) We can experiment with a notifications channel, refer to them by link in Slack
-
(Kev) Is there a collapsible version of e.g. PR integrations
-
(Allie) That could be useful. May still want to send some notifs to #securedrop
