17:23 <Odd_Bloke> Hey folks, the cloud-init committers will be around for the next while, to answer any questions or have any discussions you're interested in having.
17:23 <Odd_Bloke> blackboxsw posted a status update to Discourse earlier today.
17:23 <blackboxsw> Here's the discourse post for reference on recent cloud-init events

17:23 <blackboxsw> thanks Odd_Bloke
17:23 <Odd_Bloke> Haha
17:23 <Odd_Bloke> Please read it twice.
17:24 <blackboxsw> and correct any clerical errors
17:25 <blackboxsw> one topic of interested that hamalq  brought up yesterday was the "feature" of RedHat and CentOS that automatically prefers fqdn  over hostname in #cloud-config per this bug
17:25 <blackboxsw> #link https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1724414
17:25 <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 1724414 in cloud-init "rhel distro selects FQDN as hostname" [Low,Won't fix]
17:26 <blackboxsw> I mentioned we'd bring it up to reflect our opinion on this behavior today after a discussion
17:28 <blackboxsw> I think the upstream stance on RedHat and CentOS is that this default behavior on RedHat/CentOS has been in play for a long time and changing that default behavior would be asking to cause problems for the majority of users who may rely on this behavior during system launch.
17:28 <blackboxsw> Odd_Bloke: falcojr did we say in this case we'd prefer a new bug which better describes the desired use-case and how current cloud-init doesn't allow for that use-case?
17:30 <blackboxsw> that's all the content/discussion I had. I know I needed to get otubo a review today on his resize lvm partition branch https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/pull/721 as my stale review was blocking that.
17:31 <Odd_Bloke> We've closed out that bug as Won't Fix; we'd like folks who consider themselves affected by that bug to file a new one which describes their specific problem with the current situation: we can then work to support those requirements.
18:24 <Odd_Bloke> OK, sounds like there's not much to chat about; thanks to any lurkers. :)
