Hey everyone, I updated our meeting notes document in the Airflow wiki to capture the notes from our dev call earlier today. The link for those notes is here <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=308153072#Airflow3Devcall:MeetingNotes-Summary.18>
Thank you all for the hard work in getting to the 3.0.0 alpha release. It is so energizing to see it finally come together after we have been working on it for the last several months. It is wonderful to see all the great features and the new UI coming together. Today, it was wonderful to see the new DAG Trigger form demonstrated by Shubham and Jens. To everyone who attended the meeting, please check the summary and add anything that I may have missed. For those who could not join, please let us know if you disagree with anything discussed and agreed upon in the meeting. Also, please do ask questions if something is unclear. Our next meeting is on the 20th of February at the same time. Please let me know if you would like to add anything to the agenda <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=308153072#Airflow3Devcall:MeetingNotes-ProposedAgenda.2> . Best regards, Vikram -- Below is the summary from the call on Thursday: - Follow-up on action items from the last call - "Feature freeze" guidelines (Ash Berlin-Taylor) - Ash confirmed that he had sent out the email to the dev list with his thoughts around how we as committers and PMC members need to be very risk-aware as we merge changes into main until the 3.0 release is shipped as GA. He also mentioned how fundamental the 3.0 changes were to the code and that they were much larger than even the 2.0 changes. Jarek and Vikram agreed with the risk-aware sentiment. - AIP-81 CLI changes (Bugra Ozturk) - Bugra quickly walked through the doc already shared with the dev list (Doc link <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BSEQxKEOArPRCclfCrAjAN5hjC56vG0R5nZPc3pxF9Y/edit?usp=sharing> ). - Bugra walked through how local vs. remote commands now needed to be separated because of the TaskSDK changes in 3.0. There was general agreement about this. - There wasn't much discussion in the call around the detailed architecture and sequence diagrams in the document, and "the ask" was for the team to review the document and leave comments async. - Development updates - Update on AIP-38 Modern Web Application <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AIRFLOW/AIP-38+Modern+Web+Application>: New Trigger Form UI (Shubham Raj and Jens Scheffler) - Shubham walked through a demonstration of the new trigger form developed in the Airflow 3 UI. - The demo went through flawlessly and there was general admiration for the work done. - Shubham also confirmed that this work had been merged into main already. - Test plan update (Rahul Vats) - Rahul walked through the Airflow 3.0 Test plan <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/AIRFLOW/Airflow+3.0+Test+Plan> which now includes the status of the formal testing effort in addition to the plan itself. - Rahul described how the team was tracking development and test progress, while testing and reporting issues on the alpha builds. - There was general appreciation of the work being done. Vikram urged Rahul to ask for help from the broader team as and when needed. - Discussion topics - Milestone / workstream update (Vikram Koka) - Vikram thanked the whole team for all the great work which had been done towards getting to the alpha builds. He mentioned how hard cutting the first alpha had been and appreciated Jed among others, who had almost a 24 hour day in order to make it happen. - In order to be more predictable, Vikram asked the team to cut alphas (and betas in the future), at least every Thursday, so that we could have predictability. - Jarek agreed, citing the heuristic "If it hurts, do it more often". Jed agreed, saying that the alpha2 being cut right then has been significantly smoother than alpha1. Jed also asked everyone on the team to be aware that the alpha builds would start roughly around noon India time every Thursday. - By the time of writing, Airflow 3.0.0alpha2 had been shipped out. <https://www.astronomer.io/>
