RFH: Kata Project Glossary
by Hunt, James O 21 Jan '22

21 Jan '22

Hi All, TL;DR - Get hacking on https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/wiki/Glossary ## Intro Don't know what to do with all that spare time you'll have over the holidays? Looking for an easy way to get involved in the Kata community? Then help us work on the project glossary! ## Why? We have an in-tree glossary [1], but it's very minimal. By expanding this document, we help newcomers to the project get a better understanding of what Kata is, and faster! We also get the chance to cross reference to the existing documentation which might lead to interesting possibilities (docs needing updates, forgotten features / features you didn't even know Kata had?, docs that need writing, etc). ## Detail I've copied it into the wiki [2] to give the community a chance to help update and flesh out this important document. ## What to add? We need as many useful terms, acronymns and abbreviations related to Kata Containers (and the technologies, frameworks and project/products it touches) as possible. Acronymns and abbreviations should be added, defined in full and described (ideally in a single sentence). References to existing in-tree docs is encourage to avoid duplication where appropriate. ## Inspiration For ideas, tal at: - The existing documentation [5] (maybe starting with the architecture document). - Spell checker: you might also be able to harvest bits from the Kata spell checker word lists files [6]. - The versions databases [7], [8]. ## What next? Once the wiki version of the document starts to improve over time we can do one of: - Move the wiki version back into the repo. - Delete the in-tree version and just keeping the glossary in the wiki (might be better as it allows immediate update). ## Ground rules - Please try to retain the existing formatting. - Consider the doc requirements [3]. - Please don't add the many, many, many, many, many Confidential Container/Computing acronymns and abbreviations (since imho they should be handled in the CC organisation's own glossary (see [4])). ## Advice If you are comfortable with git, you might want to consider making your changes locally and then pushing directly. No PRs or issues required! ```bash $ git clone https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers.wiki $ cd kata-containers.wiki $ << hack >> $ git commit -asm "glossary: my awesome edits" $ git push ``` This might make dealing with collisions" caused by multiple community members trying to edit at the same time less painful to deal with. Oh, and no force pushing please! ;) ## For perfectionists If you're using the git CLI approach consider spell-checking your changes using the Kata spell checker [9] and the Kata markdown checker [10]. Get hacking y'all!

Thanks and some ideas to keep you amused in the holidays!
by Hunt, James O 23 Dec '21

23 Dec '21

Hi All, # Thanks Thank you to everyone who has contributed to Kata Containers this year! Kata Containers wouldn't be what it is today without it's wonderful community! Here are a few statistics from GitHub and Bitergia [1] to show how busy we've been this year: - We opened 1,700+ issues. - We raised 1,800+ PRs. - We merged 1,500+ PRs. - We created 20 releases. # Want something to do in the holidays? Wondering what you're going to do with all that free time you'll have in the holidays? Here are a few ideas... ## End of year review Now is a good time to go through your assigned issues and PRs and review the remaining ones. - Maybe some can be closed? - Maybe you could handle some of them in a few minutes? ## Volunteer to help review issues and PRs We are always looking for new reviewers. You **do not** need to be an expert in go, rust, shell code, container technologies, virtualisation, documentation, or testing. What you _do_ need is: - To agree to our Code of Conduct [2]. - To be interested to learn and help. - To be comfortable asking awkward and "silly" questions. (These are the best type which help to "shake out" (often incorrect!) assumptions. If something looks "wrong" / too complex / odd, question it!) If you just want to help review issues, that's it! If you want to help review PRs too, we'd suggest you read the contributing guide first [3]. If you'd like to join our regular reviewers, see [4]. ## Volunteer to help make releases If you would like to help create new Kata Containers releases, we are looking for more volunteers. Please see [5]. ## Take the survey Please consider completing the newly updated Kata survey [6]. This provides valuable feedback to the project and helps us understand what users find important. It also shows us where we can improve, but we won't know unless you tell us! ## Help add terms to the glossary Please consider helping out add terms to the project glossary [7]. It even helps us if you just add the _term_ without a definition! ## Areas of interest Please take a moment to review the Areas of Interest document [8] and check that the details in there are correct for you. If you aren't listed, please consider adding yourself. ## Get involved Want to get involved with Kata Containers but don't know where to start? Take a look at the issues we've labelled as "good first issues" [9]. You'll also want to have a look at the contributing guide [2]. Any problems, just ask [10] !

Confidential Containers Community Meeting 2021/12/16
by Samuel Ortiz 15 Dec '21

15 Dec '21

Hey Folks, Tomorrow, at 2PM UTC - 9AM EST - 10PM CST, we’re having our last meeting for 2021. The December 23rd and 30th meetings will be cancelled. We’ll do the regular CCv0 and CNCF updates first. Next, James will give an update on the current work around the threat and trust model. Finally, we’d like to make a first, high-level proposal for a the next Confidential Containers version (v1). As the year ends, we thought it would be a good opportunity to start defining what this community should be focusing on for the next few months. As usual, if you want to add any topic to tomorrow’s agenda [1], feel free to amend it. Cheers, Samuel. [1] https://docs.google.com/document/d/1E3GLCzNgrcigUlgWAZYlgqNTdVwiMwCRTJ0QnJh…
