<decause> #topic Agenda 17:11:55 <decause> 1) Tickets 17:12:01 <decause> 2) Outreachy Update 17:12:08 <decause> 3) Open Floor 17:12:21 <decause> #topic tickets 17:12:59 * Southern_Gentlem 17:13:37 <decause> #link https://fedorahosted.org/council/ticket/1 17:13:46 <decause> this ticket is an oldy-but-goody 17:14:25 <decause> last week during our 1x1, I spoke with mattdm about reaching out to Red Hat marketing to discuss what insitutional wisdom there might be for us to tap in conducting a user survey 17:15:17 <decause> #action decause reach out to Red Hat marketing about how to conduct user surveys and other best practices 17:15:35 <decause> #link https://fedorahosted.org/council/ticket/41 17:15:57 <decause> this is the ticket for allocation of budget for Outreachy interns for Winter session 17:16:08 <decause> we'll talk more about this ticket in the next agenda item 17:16:52 <decause> #link https://fedorahosted.org/council/ticket/22 17:17:08 <decause> though this ticket is closed, there has been movement on the University Objective 17:18:19 <jwb> sorry, here now 17:18:19 <decause> #link https://fedorahosted.org/council/attachment/ticket/22/ 17:18:30 <decause> there is attached now to this ticket 2 files 17:18:40 <decause> one is an ascii diagram of what a logic model looks like 17:19:15 <decause> and the other is a spreadsheet that is the result of session between me/sgallagh/mattdm to get the rough framework for the EDU specific pieces laid out 17:19:43 <decause> I'd call it version 0.3 perhaps 17:20:18 <decause> it could use some more fleshing out in the Resources/activities sections, but I think there is enough in the impacts/outcomes 17:20:54 <decause> I'm going to submit a request to the design team in the near future to help turn this spreadhsheet into something that is visually interesting 17:21:10 <decause> I think that there is just a little-bit-too-much text for it to fit neatly into a chart 17:21:21 <decause> but we can make this a one-pager for sure 17:21:33 <langdon> decause, i am a little confused about how mentor->FAD 17:21:45 <decause> langdon: so, that is not a direct mapping, unlike the other columns 17:21:59 <langdon> decause, ahh ok.. the png might need some help then too ;) 17:22:04 <decause> a spreadsheet is not a *perfect* tool for organizing these thoughts 17:22:24 <decause> langdon: please add that into the ticket as a comment 17:22:33 <langdon> decause, ack 17:22:33 <decause> I think the others do map nicely, so maybe we can make them all match 17:22:41 <decause> langdon++ 17:23:00 <decause> I'm also interested in input on what other resources Fedora has to bring to bear on the EDU initiative 17:23:18 <decause> I have things like apps.fp.o, and fedorahosted, and mostly infrastrcture 17:23:30 <langdon> decause, personally, I would just put an empty col between resources and activities.. but if #design is thinking about it already... 17:23:40 <decause> but, folks who have been around longer, or are more famliiar with other subprojects, may know of good places/people/things that make sense 17:23:54 <decause> langdon: design is *not* thinking about it yet 17:23:54 * langdon just realized "#" has a different meaning in this context than "twitter" 17:24:16 <decause> generally, before you can ask for a layout, you want to have all your content 17:24:30 <langdon> decause, predicts the future at 19:20 CEST 17:24:32 <decause> once we feel like all the words are there, I will move onto design 17:24:37 <decause> hopefully that is EoB this week 17:25:24 <decause> and by hopefully, I mean 17:25:56 <decause> #action decause file a ticket on design-team trac for fedoraedulogicmodel. due Friday 10/9 17:26:10 <decause> ok 17:26:31 <decause> that does it for tickets 17:26:38 <decause> unless I missed any 17:26:40 <decause> goin once 17:26:42 <decause> goin twice 17:26:43 <decause> goin thrice 17:26:50 <decause> #topic Open Floor 17:27:11 <langdon> decause, i would recommend talking to design now.. they should be able to help you diagram the relationships.. which will help you flesh out the content.. waiting to bring design in to the last minute has always resulted in my being chided 17:27:14 <decause> if anyone has any new/old biz they'd like to bring to the council, we're listening :) 17:27:18 * langdon types to slowly 17:27:24 <langdon> *too 17:27:25 <decause> langdon: duly noted 17:27:31 * decause will file the ticket sooner than later 17:27:33 <decause> langdon++ 17:27:35 <decause> other biz? 17:27:51 * jkurik has nothing for today 17:31:07 * decause gives it another few minutes 17:32:17 * cwickert has a flaky internet connection 17:32:34 * langdon is a flaky internet connection 17:32:50 <decause> :P 17:32:51 <cwickert> decause: can we discuss the topic of FOSCO at some point again? Sorry I did not push this forward. 17:33:20 <decause> cwickert: that would be a good discussion to have, yes. 17:34:07 <decause> cwickert: are there any specific things you had in mind? 17:34:25 <cwickert> decause: I basically want to pick up the conversation 17:34:39 <cwickert> you offered me an IRC chat, but I'm afraid this is not the right format 17:34:45 <decause> cwickert: last we discussed it, in case you missed it, the council will fill the gap on any budgetary decisions that FAMSco handled 17:35:18 <cwickert> we either stick to mail or have a phone call I suggest 17:35:36 <cwickert> decause: well, that's another question. why does famsco no longer handle budget? 17:35:36 <decause> cwickert: happy to do either. perhaps we can start with a phone call, and then report back to the list. 17:35:55 <decause> cwickert: FAMSco didn't hold elections this past release 17:36:15 <cwickert> yes, because we were looking forward to the transition to FOSCo 17:36:23 <decause> there were discussions at FLOCK about possibly running one for the next one, but I can't say that that was an official decision 17:36:58 <decause> cwickert: we should def touch base on this soon 17:36:59 <cwickert> did FAMSCo ask the council to take over budget? 17:38:24 <decause> cwickert: FAMSCo has stopped holding meetings, and as far as I can tell, is dormant. 17:38:49 <decause> in the case that decisions that typically are held by FAMSCo needed to be made moving forwad, the council agreed to help 17:39:02 <decause> while we figure out what this transition looks like 17:39:17 * langdon proposes cwickert and decause (and, maybe mattdm ) get together and discuss? then look for council review? 17:39:29 <decause> and by we, I mean ambassadors/former famsco/council 17:39:34 <cwickert> I'm sorry, I cannot even open a website or so, so any discussion at this point if useless 17:39:56 <decause> cwickert: it isn't useless, it is good that you want to help 17:39:56 <cwickert> decause: let's arrange a phone call, I will get back to you 17:40:14 <cwickert> decause: it is useless for me because I cannot refer to meeting minutes or wiki pages ;) 17:40:14 <decause> cwickert: yes awesome please 17:40:37 <decause> #action cwickert schedule a conf call with decause/mattdm about FAMSco transition 17:40:38 <langdon> cwickert, i would assume the call would be doc'd with minutes, no? 17:41:10 <decause> reporting will happen after the fact, yes 17:41:17 <decause> langdon++ 17:41:24 <cwickert> langdon: I have no idea. I don't even know how to schedule and hold a call now that we no longer have our own pbx 17:42:07 <decause> cwickert: I'm happy to use bluejeans, or g+ hangouts, or regular-ole-cellphone 17:42:07 <langdon> cwickert, ha.. sorry :) ... propose decause set up con-call ! 17:42:51 <decause> sure, I can help make that happen. Let's start with an email loop and go from there? 17:42:53 <cwickert> decause: ok, fine 17:43:20 <decause> ok 17:43:28 <decause> any other open floor business? 17:43:38 <decause> I have one if no one else does :) 17:43:55 <decause> this weekend was the 30th Anniversary of the FSF 17:44:13 <decause> #link https://www.fsf.org/fsf30/summit 17:44:29 <decause> as part of that celebration, there was a summit and gathering afterwards 17:44:30 <rdieter> and we can even sing happy birthday song 17:45:00 <decause> #info there was a live multi-lingual performance of the Free Software Song 17:45:21 <decause> thre were more than one cameras pointed at it, so the internet should have a copy soon 17:45:23 <langdon> #action decause to schedule con-call via email with cwickert & mattdm re: fosco/famsco 17:45:45 <decause> langdon: thanks, I thought I had made an action item, but more than one can't hurt :P 17:45:56 * langdon reversed the resp. ;) 17:46:11 <decause> kk, got it 17:46:37 <decause> there was a really great hallway track at the summit, as you can imagine, along with the sessions too 17:47:03 <decause> the closing keynote by Eben Moglen was inspiring as per usual, and I have a ~4000 word transcript from that event 17:47:15 <decause> likely I will be pitching something to the Fedora Magazine in the nearish future 17:47:26 * decause is already 2, maybe 3 articles deep in that queue already though 17:48:02 <decause> #info according to Moglen, FreedomBox is going to be able to be demo'd at the end of October 17:48:28 <decause> #link http://freedomboxfoundation.org/ 17:48:45 * langdon notes news regarding an event deteriorates in value quickly after the event 17:49:20 <decause> nod nod nod 17:49:44 * decause is going to ship the raw copy somewhere and post to decauseblog after one editorial pass 17:50:03 <langdon> so.. what is the q on this? 17:50:04 <decause> but yeah, that is an aside, maybe not interesting to the entire council :P 17:50:37 <decause> langdon: Fedora Magazine holds an editorial meeting on THursdays at 5pm, where we handle the queue and approve pitches/drafts 17:50:53 <decause> if you get an account on the wordpress instance, you can see the articles in queue 17:51:02 <decause> on my plate, personally, are 2: 17:51:05 <langdon> decause, yep.. on my calendar.. just hasn't collided with me being available yet 17:51:08 * jkurik wants to hear the live multi-lingual performance of the Free Software Song 17:51:17 <decause> 1) Software Freedom Day wrap-up post (final draft in progress) 17:51:20 <langdon> i meant what is the q to the council re: fsf anni?
