DPDK Release Status Meeting 14/07/2018
======================================

Minutes from the weekly DPDK Release Status Meeting.

The DPDK Release Status Meeting is intended for DPDK Committers to discuss
the status of the master tree and sub-trees, and for project managers to
track progress or milestone dates.

The meeting occurs on Thursdays at 8:30 UTC. If you wish to attend just
send me and email and I will send you the invite.

Bugzilla
--------

* We need a volunteer to manage the DPDK Bugzilla:
  https://dpdk.org/tracker/
* Main task will be to review incoming defects and make sure they are
  assigned to the right maintainer.
* The number of new defects is currently small so this shouldn't take more
  than a 1-2 hours per week.
* If there isn't a volunteer then we will circulate the role, for each
  release, between the main contributing companies.

LTS Maintainer Gap
------------------

* The current LTS/Stable releases and maintainers are:

* Yuanhan will be stepping down after the next 17.11.x release.
* We are looking for another volunteer.
* Also many thanks to the current LTS/Stable maintainers.


Design Reviews
--------------

* If anyone would like to have an online design review/discussion of a
  proposal for an new feature let me know and I will set it up. For examples,
  if they have an RFC that could be better explained over a call with some
  slides. We have very good discussions at the DPDK Userspace event and it
  would be good to have similar discussions from time to time on major new
  features.
