Hi all,
FMN (
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/notifications)
is currently one of the main blocking point for dropping fedmsg
in favour of fedora-messaging.
FMN is quite important to the community and the composition of
Fedora because it gives emails and notifications on commits,
composes, builds and updates via email and other tools.
However, the code base is written in Python 2.7 and not
maintained anymore. Currently the service has to run on a Fedora
28 system to continue running. This causes multiple problems and
concerns, and needs to be addressed before the datacenter move
in June.
In order to start putting together a specification for a
replacement, we should try to look at the minimum requirements
for a notification system. For example the current system
supports sending notifications to IRC, emails and SSE (Server
Sent Event), Can we live without SSE ? Can we live without IRC ?
Do we need it to monitor everything it does currently or just a
subset of items that the community has found useful.
Let's use this thread to brainstorm ideas on what we need.
Thanks all
