Should we keep RHEL 6 support? (ie py26 support). When can we drop it?
Another way of framing this is dropping python 2 support.
EPEL 7 has support for python 3 (mock, etc)
[kevin] This could be a bigger gain
[ktdreyer] Yeah, I think we should keep the RHEL 7-based packages on py27 for the next year (at least). Jumping completely to py3 on el7 is a big jump.
[kevin] agree, but all py3 would mean everything is using the same code, but yeah.
Target here is server-side (hub, web, builder). CLI could still RHEL 6
[dgregor] what do we gain by dropping RHEL 6 support?
There is a fair amount of complexity in the code because of the RHEL 6 support
[mikem] 1.20 is too soon to drop RHEL 6 support. The answer is "soon".
A good target would likely be summer, 2020 (Koji 1.22 or Koji 1.23)
Start messaging this with the Koji 1.20 release
[tkopecek] should be part of release notes
[ktdreyer] We can also mention that RHEL 6 EOL itself is November 30, 2020, https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata
[mikem] The important pieces for Red Hat to continue to support on RHEL 6 are the builder and the client. The kojihub and kojiweb are not as important.
[mikem] There are ways today that we can extend Koji to call createrepo_c... let's look at specific use cases
the oldest postgresql version to support - https://pagure.io/koji/issue/1754
Will we reorganize our documentation pages?
Yes... looking to refactor https://docs.pagure.org/koji/
Will try to keep old urls working when possible
[Neal] The Fedora wiki pages don't redirect to our docs pages, and they should
What do we really want out of koji.build?
https://pagure.io/koji-tools in Fedora
koji-ssl-admin
[yzhu] I'm using it, Ken++
[kevin] happy to help review the package
Keepng koji-tools as a separate space for esoteric / one-off scripts, but things that are essential to koji should be in koji itself

How can we coordinate with Brew QE effort?
kojiweb future
It's possible to replace almost all of wsgi_publisher.py with Flask

dgregor
Follow up with Brew QE and Ken to see how we can collaborate on Koji integration testing
add koji-devel to calendar invite for future community meetings
tkopecek: We can set it as a title in #koji IRC channel +- week before
[kdreyer] that's a good idea
Make sure that koji.build works
