Tony Breeds bad8c72421 Add explict start dates to meeting yaml This is an intermediate step, but valuable, step in stabilising the IRC meeting iCal. There are a couple of issues. 1. Every time we regenerate the iCal we set a new start point. 2. The odd/even decision is based on the start date (which defaults to the time the ics file is generated) By adding explicit start dates to all out meetings (which have been reset this week) we mitigate both of these issues. There are other aspects that require updates to yaml2ical, but this relatively simple step while we get those items in place. Note: this week you can verify that these start_dates are correct by 1. running tox on master 2. save output/irc-meetings.ical to output/master.ical 3. apply this patch and re-run tox 4. diff output/master.ical output/irc-meetings.ical Change-Id: I7ae70c684884c0c708738392a0b43bbb3c1c878e		2016-01-08 12:36:34 +11:00

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
meeting_id: the name given to the #startmeeting meetbot command
agenda_url the URL to the page with the agenda for the meeting, usually in the wiki
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 project name is shown below.
```
project:  Nova Team Meeting
```

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.

schedule:
    - time:       '1400'
      day:        Thursday
      irc:        openstack-meeting-alt
      frequency:  biweekly-even

    - time:       '2100'
      day:        Thursday
      irc:        openstack-meeting
      frequency:  biweekly-odd

The chair is just a one liner. The might be left empty if there is not a chair. It's recommended to mention his/her IRC nick.
```
chair:  Russell Bryant (russellb)
```

The project description is as follows. Use > for paragraphs where new lines are folded, or | for paragraphs where new lines are preserved.

    This meeting is a weekly gathering of developers working on OpenStack.
    Compute (Nova). We cover topics such as release planning and status,
    bugs, reviews, and other current topics worthy of real-time discussion.
