Meeting summary
---------------

* we need to go over the kernel projects which will be involved in MRI
  (skitt, 16:05:03)
* migration: odlparent 4 involves lots of changes, but mostly
  mechanical, and will be documented  (skitt, 16:09:00)
* yangtools might require changes to application logic around empty list
  handling  (skitt, 16:09:17)
* empty lists will disappear along with the parent hierarchy which
  becomes empty  (skitt, 16:10:00)
* this also applies to choices and augmentations  (skitt, 16:10:06)
* ACTION: skitt to initiate the migration wiki page  (skitt, 16:10:39)
* md-sal involves migrating Optional (but many projects will be shielded
  by controller) and a few other changes  (skitt, 16:11:36)
* ACTION: vorburger to build a timeline of project patches by filing
  bugs with deadlines  (skitt, 16:12:50)
* bump patch merges are scheduled to occur between Oct 6 and 19  (skitt,
  16:15:10)
* LINK: pending patches for odlparent:
  https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/q/project:odlparent+status:open
  (skitt, 16:15:53)
* ACTION: to start a thread on odlparent-dev to go over pending patches
  (skitt, 16:17:12)
* ODLPARENT-161, the issue around SpotBugs and Guava nullable
  annotations, is a big issue  (skitt, 16:25:25)
* but not a blocker for 4.0.0  (skitt, 16:25:30)
* it will be documented and fixed ASAP in a patch release  (skitt,
  16:25:39)
* due to a problem with SpotBugs and Guava we recommend projects stay on
  FindBugs until this is solved  (vorburger, 16:25:45)
* note that this stops us from running static analysis on JDK 9+
  (skitt, 16:25:55)
* rovarga put in a change which deactivates FindBugs on JDK 9+ so this
  doesn't block us from further exploring building and running ODL on
  JDK 9+  (vorburger, 16:27:13)
* Clustering  (vorburger, 16:27:58)
  * nothing in particular today, says shague  (vorburger, 16:28:08)



Meeting ended at 16:28:39 UTC.
