Hi everyone, The Hive CI and precommit infrastructure is very important part of our daily life as Hive contributors and has great impact on productivity and overall contributor experience. I think it would be very useful for everyone contributing to Hive to get a better understanding of how the CI works and what lies underneath.
For this purpose, I would like to propose a virtual event on July 23, 2025 at 17:00 CEST [1] in an attempt to facilitate contributions and troubleshooting around this area. I know that the time is not convenient for everyone globally (and it is impossible to find one slot that works for all) but we could possibly shift the date if that could help in getting greater attendance. The format that I had in mind is a small introductory presentation followed by casual and informal QA. I created a google doc [1] to gather questions that people may have in this area. Feel free to append your questions there so that we have a tentative agenda of what to cover during the event. I can lead the presentation/discussion during the event and I would be more happy to co-present with anyone else willing to help. There are people with probably better understanding than myself in this area so it would be great to have them onboard. How do people feel about the idea? Is there interest in attending such an event? Best, Stamatis [1] https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Apache+Hive+CI+Introduction+%26+QA&iso=20250723T17&p1=195&ah=1&am=30 [2] https://docs.google.com/document/d/1P5H5N2QUSIwM83Yz00lzItcAQgMWQ5qpjOhoSAs9Tbw/edit?usp=sharing
