7. Any Other Business (WG News, New Proposals, etc.)

8. Tools Team Report -- 11 September 2018

> 1. Datatracker Projects
>   - The merge plan was recently updated.
>     -- See http://trac.tools.ietf.org/tools/ietfdb/wiki/MergePlan
>     -- Highlight that the transition to Python3 and Postgress will
>        be tackled in 2019.
>   - GDPR Compliance -- The email for people to give consent for
>     information in the datatracker did not go out July 2018 as planned.
>     Deletion of email addresses had many more edge cases than expected,
>     so more time was needed to write the code.  Next week, the consent
>     requestes will go out to a list of over 15,000 email addresses Of
>     course, most of them are very old, so they will bounce.  The email
>     will include a link to their datatracker account page.  Alissa will
>     send a message to the community to avoid surprises.
>   - Management of "extra" IETF meeting sessions -- this task is being
>     combined with the update to the meeting scheduling tool that is
>     in the budget for 2019.
> 
> 2. Community & Other Projects
>   - The Tools Team is working to discontinue MonArch email archives.
>     This will allow all of the mail-related tools to work from one
>     copy of the archives in maildir format.  However, the community
>     clearly still likes the speed offered by MonArch.  Yesterday an
>     update to mailarchive.ietf.org was deployed, and it is much faster.
>     The update makes much greater use of static pages and it uses
>     ElasticSearch, which is much more efficient than the previous
>     index approach.  Robert Sparks will renew the discussion with
>     the community discontinuing the MonArch email archives next week.
> 
> 3. RFC Services Projects
>   - RFC Format contracts are on schedule:
>     -- IDnits
>     -- Publication Formatter
>     -- Text Submission
>     -- RFClint
>     -- SVGcheck
>     -- XMLdiff
>   - IDnits, Publication Formatter, and Text Submission are on
>     schedule, and they will be completed this year.
>   - RFClint, SVGcheck, and XMLdiff are in final acceptance test by
>     the RFC Series Editor and the RFC Production Center.  Bugs are
>     being resolved promptly.
> 
> 4. Server Infrastructure
>   - The custom DMARC-handling software was deployed for all mail lists
>     in June.  We received very positive feedback from the community.
>   - There is a desire to move away from the custom software to ARC, but
>     the ARC software cannot be configured to handle just a few of our
>     mail lists.  Henrik is providing requirements to the ARC developers 
>     for the needed configuration capability.  So far, they have not
>     offered a release date with the new capability.
>   - There are three updates to www.ietf.org underway with Torchbox.
>     First, upgrade the version of Wagtail from 1.12.1 to 2.2.2.
>     Second, change the home page display based on feedback received
>     from the IETF community, which includes adding email archive search
>     to the page.  Third, add an RSS feed for the IETF Blog.  All three
>     updates are expected to be complete by the end of October.
> 
> 5. Other Business
>   - The web pages for the Tools Team were updated.
>     -- https://www.ietf.org/about/grpups/tools
>     -- https://datatracker.ietf.org/group/tools/about/
>   - The IESG needs to decide when to change IDnits to allow I-Ds with
>     non-ascii characters in places other than names to be posted.  We
>     have a request to allow posting.
>     -- See https://trac.tools.ietf.org/tools/ietfdb/ticket/2574
>   - The IMAP server code that is provided by ISODE does not handle
>     changed usernames well.  When a person changed their username, the
>     IMAP server noticed the change, but all saved IMAP state was lost.
>     Changing the username back recovered the state.  Alexey has written
>     a fix that will be released soon.
> 
> 6. Parking Lot
>   - Prepare the RFC Production Center code for publication.
>     -- Maybe this can get some attention when the six RFC Format tools
>        are posted in an open source repository.
