OpenStack Meetings

This project aims to provide an easier way to manage OpenStack team meetings. Currently, each team's meeting time and agenda are listed at:

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings

This project replaces each meeting with well-defined YAML files.

YAML Meeting File Format

Each meeting consists of:

• project: the name of the project
• schedule: a list of schedule each consisting of
  • time: time string in UTC
  • day: the day of week the meeting takes place
  • irc: the irc room in which the meeting is held
  • frequency: frequent occurrence of the meeting
• chair: name of the meeting's chair
• description: a paragraph description about the meeting

The file name should be a lower-cased, hyphenated version of the meeting name, ending with .yaml . For example, Keystone team meeting should be saved under keystone-team-meeting.yaml.

Example

This is an example for the yaml meeting for Nova team meeting. The whole file will be import into Python as a dictionary.

• The schedule is a list of dictionaries each consisting of time in UTC, day of the week, the irc meeting room, and the frequency of the meeting. Options for the frequency are weekly, biweekly-even, and biweekly-odd at the moment.
