[dev] [19/06/2018] FRR Technical Meeting Notes

[Quentin Young]

FRR Technical Meeting Notes - 06/19/2018
=========================================

Misc Issues
-----------
- Chat software
  - We want to move off Slack due to message history loss, proprietary platform, etc.
  - Options considered thus far are Rocket.chat and MatterMost
    - Some discussion on importance of VOIP call support
    - Beyond VOIP they seem largely equivalent
  - Quentin to evaluate Matrix / Riot and report back
  - Aiming to have a decision within next 2 weeks

- Maintainers
  - It's been roughly a year since the maintainers list was updated
  - Nominate yourself or others to become maintainers on the dev mailing list over the next couple weeks

- Moving EVPN commands out of #ifdef ENABLE_CUMULUS
  - EVPN requires --enable-cumulus at present
  - This requires people to build FRR themselves if they want EVPN support
  - Many people have asked that EVPN be enabled without this flag
  - General agreement: this is a good idea
  - lberger: Need to evaluate collateral damage on affected other commands
     - sharpd: Will list out the affected commands for individual evaluation by all parties (see dev alias email)
