Hello, I will not be able to attend, but Brian Stinson has offered to
chair
the meeting. An agenda will be sent out on Thursday, but I think the main
focus will be on what is needed to get python3x into EPEL and in that
discussion what things we are going to want out of short-lifed packages in a
long term repo. [EG python34 will be EOL sometime after python35 comes out..
the same with 35 when 36 comes out. Does saying that it would be great to
have dual stack support actually something we can deliver or should we go
with you can't have python34 and python35 installed at the same time.]
I believe that having both stacks coexist for some limited amount of time is necessary
here. Without that, we would be hitting periods with really broken/incomplete python3
stack and I think we want to avoid that.
I already created a copr repo for this [1] where I'll start landing first builds today
for everyone to test - doing parallel installable python3X stacks is actually pretty easy
and I pretty much have everything working locally right now, so I really recommend to go
with parallel installable stacks (while I agree that the period when both coexist should
be kept to minimum).
