Infra Update
  • Area updates & Discussion questions:
  • Reliability, Security, Networks, Systems (Ryan)
  • Automation & configuration management continues to improve

  • Dev Tools
  • Nothing new to report
  • Communication Systems (Michael)
  • ~ 42,000 OpenMRS.org visits per month 
  • Continuing to "dogfood" Discourse with small lists & groups. All our Google Groups except dev@ and implementers@ have been migrated to Discourse. A few email processing-related bugs outstanding. (Forwarding, HTML formatting, etc.)
  • IRC logs are being resurrected on a standalone searchable web server vs inside Confluence. Waiting on OSUOSL who seem to be on winter holiday break.
  • UberConference no longer officially supports Firefox. Should that cause us to reconsider alternatives?
  • Identity Systems (Elliott)
  • ID Dashboard & Modulus are participating in Google Code-in to get additional work done over the next 6 weeks. Details available in GCI project on JIRA.
  • QA Systems (Cintia)
  • Signficant improvements in Bamboo configuration this quarter including additional agents. Agents have upgraded OS, Maven 2 & 3 upgraded, agents run isolated
  • Modules can be released from Bamboo
Year in Review
  • What did we expect to happen this year?
  • Release OpenMRS 1.10
  • Release OpenMRS 2.0
  • Improvement in CD/CI
  • What actually happened this year?
  • We committed to releasing OpenMRS twice a year (March & September) and at least one platform release per year.
  • Major progress in automating CD "releases"
  • What can we do better next year?
  • How do we do a better job of following up action items?
  • Assign target dates instead of "someday" (and change the date if delays are necessary or the estimates were off)
  • Need assignee & date
  • Can we make TODO backload available to folks?
  • Clearer understanding of how devs can work through stages of development in the community.
