That's nice, thanks. 15:15:47 ok, let's move on then 15:16:04 #topic Clarify FAmSCo election rules 15:16:10 https://pagure.io/famsco/issue/427 15:16:44 I wrote down the text which needs a small change, there is not much, the rest can stay as it is now 15:17:39 did you take a look at it? 15:17:48 * Kohane reading 15:17:57 not yet, I'm checking it now 15:18:34 ok, we have actually a quorum, so we could theoretically also vote on it 15:19:49 "In order to hold an election, a minimum number of candidates are necessary" I would rather say "In order to hold an election, a minimum number of candidates IS necessary" 15:20:10 It's just a grammar thing, but I'd prefer it to mention it. 15:22:29 ? 15:22:54 ok, the main change is on filling vacant seats, the paragraph above changes from "may be a member" to "must be a member" 15:23:14 Kohane: just speak right away 15:23:28 Yes, thanks 15:23:53 This "candidates must not be a citizen of an export-restricted country (see Legal/Export#Embargoed_Destinations for the list of export restricted countries)." 15:23:55 Why? 15:24:31 Kohane: this is a legal thing 15:24:46 Mmmh... 15:24:54 embargoed countries are excluded 15:26:09 I didn't change anything on that 15:26:20 Yes, I just wanted to know why. 15:26:29 And embargoed by whom? 15:27:02 jonatoni fredlima : if you feel you need more time we can also vote on pagure, but let's get it done soon 15:27:07 Kohane: by the US 15:27:14 In any case, I find the text perfect except that grammar mistake I pointed out earlier. 15:27:29 robyduck: Oh. Okay. 15:28:04 we can vote even here, I saw your proposal and it looks good 15:28:30 Yes, I also think is good. 15:28:43 can we vote? 15:28:46 ok then let's vote 15:28:50 +1 15:28:53 +1 15:29:07 +1 15:29:18 +1 15:29:43 #agreed The changes for FAmSCo election rules are approved - see ticket 427 15:30:07 +1 15:30:13 that's nice and will help a lot for the upcoming elections 15:30:29 yes, sorry I voted late 15:30:31 oh, hi itamarjp :) 15:30:48 :-) 15:32:32 We should start to sort out another thing, which will be the next great step in retooling the ambassadors process 15:32:44 Yes? 15:33:11 #topic Ambassadors retooling and Mindshare 15:33:52 So, you probably know we are in charge to retool the whole ambassador program, but there are other projects directly related to that 15:34:44 we sorted out really a lot of things, now, making a step forward we need to look into the ambassador related stuff more deeply 15:35:54 and FOSCo was a thing that should have started time ago, but at the end it never was defined and set up, there were many different ideas and understandings 15:36:48 Thats why FOSCo actually died and during the Council FAD a new project was set as objective, called mindshare, which I am responsible of. 15:37:00 Oh... 15:37:07 What is it about? 15:37:53 That means the COuncil will directly follow the proposals, because it is an objective, but it means also, FAmSCo is not any longer direclty involved. 15:38:51 I would like to involve FAmSCo's anyway, it is important to get your thoughts and you might be able to give good inputs to make it become a success 15:39:42 Mindshare will be about outreach contributions, mainly based on sharing best practices and by defining and standardizing successfull communications 15:40:17 will we open a new ticket about this? 15:40:59 so, all of us should be aware we are working on ambassador retooling also to help mindshare being successful, at least for the ambassadors part 15:41:35 Okay. 15:41:44 jonatoni: yes, if you like we can ope a ticket or whatever and put in our ideas and how we think ambassadors should stay within this new body 15:42:44 yes, would be better to open a ticket so we can write there our feedback and thoughts 15:43:12 Ambassadors will be part of it, a correct balance between mindshare, ambassadors, regions and obviously the COuncil is important IMHO to create a successful ambassador program, which is easy to understand even for new ambassadors. 15:43:31 too many are the unanswered questions actually I am seeing flying around 15:44:35 jonatoni: yes, I can do that. Anyway, this is a brainstorming which will go on for some time, I just wanted to start involving all parts to get the most and best feedback I can. 15:45:48 #action robyduck opens a brainstorming ticket for Mindshare and its impact on ambassadors 15:45:52 thanks for opening this topic, it's a really important one 15:46:19 jonatoni: yes it is 15:47:37 I think this is enough to start, we can talk about it in the next meetings or on pagure 15:47:44 #topic Open Floor 15:48:07 Anything else? I don't have anything for today 15:48:35 I wrote on the mailing list about the APAC bi-weekly meetings 15:48:47 no one replied 15:49:02 oh yes, I saw that 15:49:28 but I contacted one of the ambassadors that was interested to chair the meetings and he reply soon on the mailing list 15:49:47 ok 15:49:59 let's see, otherwise we need to contact them directly 15:50:07 yes 15:50:14 or at least some of the key ambassadors in APAC 15:51:43 I'll close the meeting in 2 15:52:20 thanks for chairing robyduck 15:52:22 1 15:52:24 bye all :) 15:52:55 see you next week, and thanks for coming! 15:53:14 #endmeeting
