So, one thing I really want to do is an end-to-end submit/review container images to FLIBS.

Work Session Proposal:

"We Need YOU To Review Containers"

Work session would cover what we're looking for in FLIBS contianers, the current container guidelines and what they mean, how to test containers. The idea would be to actually review and comment on containers during the work session. This would also teach people to submit good containers. Full description to come.

From today's meeting here is a list of talks/workshops we think we want to propose:

  • dusty to submit session for hands on with atomic host "lab"
  • dusty to submit talk on 'state of Fedora Atomic'
  • jbrooks to submit talk for kube on fedora atomic host - helped by @yzhang
  • maxamillion to submit a talk on FLIBS

also talked about a workshop where we do general maintentance, issue tracker scrub + breakout sessions on some hot topics.

Multi-Arch Container Layered Image Build System

In this session, the multi-architecture version of Fedora Layered Image Build System (FLIBS) will be introduced. We will discuss the technical implementation, the features provided, motivations for it's design, and how it's related to other Fedora Initiatives (such as Modularity). Also, we will talk about what this means for users, contributors, and the community at large.

Becoming a Fedora Container Maintainer

@maxamillion & @jberkus

The Fedora Layered Image Build System (FLIBS) is how we create our container library so that you can have a fully Fedora container stack. However, like everything Fedora it runs on contributor effort, which means we need you -- yes, you -- to become a container maintainer, reviewer, or preferably both.

In this workshop, we will go over the requirements and process for
creating FLIBS containers, including the Container Guidelines maintained
by the Atomic WG. We will show some examples of creating compliant
containers. Participants in the workshop will finish it by reviewing
one or more containers currently in the review queue.

Attendees should bring a laptop with a working SSH terminal for the
review session.

Edit: as discussed we will break the sessions into 2 proposals. First:

System Containers: Concept, Creation and Usage

by @jasonbrooks and @yzhang

In this session we will introduce the concept of system containers:
containerized systemd services using runc on an Atomic Host. We
will then explore use cases in the containerized world, focusing
on etcd/flannel/docker/cri-o on a Fedora Atomic system. We will
also learn how a user can create such a container themselves and
use system containers to expand host functionality. We will
wrap up with some discussions about a more containerized Fedora
moving into the future.

Discussing Kubernetes and Openshift Origin Deployment Options

by @jasonbrooks and @yzhang

When it comes to methods of deploying kubernetes and openshift origin clusters, the Fedora community faces an embarrassment of riches: ansible scripts, kubeadm, oc cluster up, minishift and minikube, among other options. In this work session, we'll try to lay out the main options for setting up these clusters, seek out discussion and feedback about which options are working best for our community members, and develop some plans around better improving, documenting, and promoting these options.

Fedora Atomic Doc Work

Fedora Atomic has all kinds of awesome first-in-the-industry capabilities, but isn't getting the attention it deserves because a minority of our features are documented. As of Flock, we have a brand-new, CI-and-container-driven documentation system, and this work session will help populate it.

This session will include a brief introduction on setting up a local build & test environment for Atomic documentation and the practical basics of our tools and style sheets. We will then pick from a list of areas which urgently need documentation and participants will work in teams to start documentation for those sections.

This Do session follows up on the Atomic Doc VFAD from late July, in order to get more Fedora community members helping with documentation. Attendees should bring Fedora laptops with git and Minishift installed.

Talk: Fedora Atomic - State of the Union
Time: 30 minutes
Presenter: Dusty Mabe
Description:

The Fedora Atomic Working group and the technology behind Fedora
Atomic host have come a long way in a year. Fedora Atomic is now one
of the three pillars of Fedora, we are testing and releasing updated
content every two weeks, and we have integrated much better with the
Fedora Project and the broader Fedora Community. Combine this along
with the fact that there have been a great deal of new features in
our underlying upstream projects, it truly makes the working group
an exciting place to be.

This talk will cover everything from what Project Atomic and Atomic
Host is to how the Fedora Atomic Working Group has developed and on
to what improvements we've been making for users and community
members. As always, there will definitely be pointers to how to get
involved :).

Talk: Atomic Host 101
Time: 120 minutes
Presenter: Dusty Mabe
Description:

Heard about Atomic Host, but never had a chance to try it out? This
hands on lab will show you the ins and outs of Atomic Host. It will
attempt to dispell some myths and show you how Atomic Host can be
useful even for your traditional non-container workloads. Some of
the features covered will be:

  • Atomic Upgrades/Rollbacks
  • Browsing OS History
  • Package Layering
  • Live filesystem updates
  • Configuring Storage for Containers
  • Viewing Changes to your deployed files

At the beginning of this session I'll briefly present on what Atomic
Host is and then we'll dive right in. Please bring your laptops to the
session and be able to launch a VM on it. We'll send out an email the
week of with instructions on how to download the materials for the
lab.

CFP is closed and I believe we got everything submitted. Now we wait :)
