Second quarter wrap up

https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/meeting/2025-04-07#first-quarter-recap

so we have two weeks left to wrap up that plan! it's been a heck of a quarter:

  • trixie batch 2 is wrapping up, maybe not in june for tails
  • rdsys and snowflake containerization (wrapping up!)
  • network team test network (VM done, still "needs review")
  • mail monitoring improvements (stalled)
  • authentication merge plan (still being developed)
  • minio cluster in production (currently in development)
  • puppet merge work has definitely started, steps A-D done, E-K next?
  • weblate and jenkins upgrades done by next week
  • confidential tickets encryption
  • card testing defense work on donate
  • gitlab crawler bots defense (and publication of asncounter)

Holidays planning

We reviewed the overlaps of the vacations, and we're still okay with the planning.

We want to prioritize:

  • trixie upgrades, batch 2
  • trixie upgrades, some of batch 3 (say, maybe puppet and ganeti?)
  • puppet merge (zen will look at a plan / estimates)

Upgrade prediction graph lives at https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/howto/upgrades/trixie/

Note that this is a project based on the current (fast) rate of upgrade, this will slow down and we are still aiming at completing the upgrades before the end of 2025, and certainly not by 2025-07-13.

Number of the month: 4000

We have crossed the 4000-closed-tickets mark in April! It wasn't noticed back then for some reason, but it's pretty neat! This is 2000 closed issues since we started tracking those numbers, 5 years ago.
