I also encourage all of us to consider writing our own reports too for our own blogs, maybe at a more personal angle. Maybe not as detailed as a report on the CommBlog, but this would help give additional exposure to our work (and it may still be officially part of the reimbursement process – I know it is for events in North America and Flock). 12:12:13 everyone can review all the subsections at the end 12:12:46 jflory7, that is our personal tasks :) 12:12:49 If it isn't in the reimbursement rules, it should be. Everyone who travels should be writing something, imho. 12:13:03 from diversity team point of view, lets target the common report first 12:13:04 Amita: From my experience, I think it will be difficult to split writing across like that because it will be different voices and authors in the same report. I think the best way to do this is to charge it to a single person to write, and then have a peer review / edit once we have an initial draft. 12:13:05 *cough*FOSDEM*cough* 12:13:24 yeah bexelbie FOSDEM reports too :) 12:13:25 For me, it's confusing to have multiple people writing a single report, but I acknowledge that this could just be my own view too. 12:13:35 jflory7, I agree with you in principal, however, I think in this case it might be better to have an outline people fill in. The editing pass can fix voice. 12:13:49 making this one person's responsibility will probably result in it not getting done 12:13:52 bexelbie totally agree with you, we need an article for FAD and FOSDEM too 12:13:56 a FAD without outboudn reporting didn't happen 12:14:23 I have the cycles where I could write a report for the FAD tomorrow and have a final draft by end of day Thursday 12:14:52 jflory7, I am ready to throw this all to you 12:14:57 but I don't want that 12:15:17 a. This can skip other's voices 12:15:28 b. we want to be kind to you 12:15:29 :) 12:15:36 If we want to break it up into an outline and have us all contribute to it, that will work fine by me. I understand the other points you all raise and that's fair. :) 12:15:43 I'd be happy to jflory7 and Amita to take on the initial pass at the report 12:16:08 Yeah, maybe Amita and I can tag-team this and then share a first draft for peer review? 12:16:29 ok, so lets do this, me and jflory7 will draw the outline within next 2 days 12:16:43 Sounds like a doable plan to me! 12:16:44 and then share that with team on mail 12:17:03 and let team fill in the blanks (if any) 12:17:19 #info All FAD participants (and FOSDEM goers) are highly encouraged to write personal event reports on their personal blogs to share on the Fedora Planet and elsewhere 12:17:29 Amita: +1. 12:18:03 #action Amita and jflory7 to comeup with FAD report outline in a piratepas and share this with team by Feb 10 12:18:15 #agreed For the general FAD report on the Community Blog, Amita and jflory7 will tag-team this to work on a first draft, and then will share the initial draft with the team for peer review / edits 12:18:24 * jflory7 adds action item to to-do list 12:18:41 All looks good to me! 12:18:49 #action jonatoni bee2502 Rhea marinaz bexelbie to review the report and fill the gaps if any 12:19:17 ok, so this was fast, anyone wants to add something to it? 12:19:35 moving to next 12:19:38 #topic Study of other communities diversity and inclusion policies and how they can fit in Fedora. 12:20:04 I was in marketing meeting yesterday, jflory7 was running it :) 12:20:21 so the idea is kind a spreading and very helpful 12:20:46 For this topic, I haven't yet fully had a chance to do my research, but I did have a long conversation with meskarune, the founder of Arch Women, and she provided a lot of valuable insight 12:21:05 I have a couple things I want to action myself for: 12:21:19 jflory7, It will be great if you can put that in the prague ticket and/or mailing list 12:21:51 I am taking care of mozilla community study, I will take that action 12:21:52 #action jflory7 Take feedback from meskarune about Arch Women and add insight to ticket #3 (due:2017-02-09) 12:22:27 #action Amita started conversation with Mozilla contributors (local in office) 12:22:50 #action jflory7 Research / reach out to freenode community team to better understand how they handle issues in the wider freenode community and what steps they follow or take for different situations (due:2017-02-12) 12:23:14 I will ask LibreOffice community about this 12:23:15 jonatoni, bee2502 Rhea you have any community to be covered under this? 12:23:53 also Wikimedia 12:24:05 In our Etherpad, we had also tasked bee2502 with Mozilla, me with Ubuntu / Canonical, jonatoni with LibreOffice / The Document Foundation, jonatoni with Wikipedia, jonatoni with KDE, bee2502 with Python, GNOME with marinaz / bee2502, and Systers / Ada Initiative to bee2502. 12:24:17 #action jonatoni will reach out to LibreOffice for study of diversity and inclusion policies 12:24:43 jflory7, nice, we can put that in Pagure - what is in the etherpad for the record 12:24:43 #action jflory7 Start a conversation with cprofitt about Ubuntu community guidelines / code of conduct and his experiences in the Ubuntu community (due:2017-02-10) 12:25:09 #link https://etherpad.gnome.org/p/fedora-diversity-fad-notes (line #372) 12:25:22 .thank jflory7 12:25:23 Amita thinks jflory7 is awesome and is happy they are helping!

I mostly want to spend time getting info from Etherpads / IRC into tickets or more loggable places of discussion. 12:32:41 I don't anticipate this being a *normal* amount of actions :) 12:32:43 jflory7, you rock! 12:32:52 moving to next agenda 12:32:56 #topic Subproject Report meetings 12:33:04 #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/council-discuss@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/ZFFCMP4ZX4HIOZTRPMHLZLVJOSBHKVEV/ 12:33:06 Ah, yeah 12:33:13 this one I have taken from marketing meeting 12:33:24 and if we check the mail thread, diversity is mentioned there 12:33:31 As a note, Marketing and possibly the Magazine is tentatively aiming for the March 22 date. We should probably avoid the Feb. 22 date too since mattdm will be absent. 12:33:44 I'm not sure how many groups they are planning to get a report from during one meeting. 12:34:18 jflory7, March 23 works for me, lets ask rest of the team mates 12:34:25 and what will the meeting time? 12:34:44 I believe it is one per meeting 12:34:46 also, I would like to sync on the report before we jump on the meeting 12:35:40 Report should include our current state of tasks we are doing + what help we need from council ( in nutshell, if I am not totally wrong here) ? 12:35:47 Amita: Meeting time is also on Wednesdays, 14:00 UTC if I recall now. 12:36:02 Amita: Oh, definitely, this is a ticket worth of its own discussion 12:36:16 * worthy 12:37:04 jflory7, I assume the FAD blog post will help us showcase better, how we are helping and progressing 12:37:50 but a overall project report would cover the bigger space in spectrum here 12:38:05 let's open a pargue ticket 12:38:10 I will take that up 12:38:39 #action Create a project report for https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/council-discuss@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/ZFFCMP4ZX4HIOZTRPMHLZLVJOSBHKVEV/ 12:38:48 #undo 12:38:48 Removing item from minutes: ACTION by Amita at 12:38:39 : Create a project report for https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/council-discuss@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/ZFFCMP4ZX4HIOZTRPMHLZLVJOSBHKVEV/ 12:38:58 #action Amita Create a project report for https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/council-discuss@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/ZFFCMP4ZX4HIOZTRPMHLZLVJOSBHKVEV/ 12:39:20 I should come up with something by next week for review 12:39:36 any more helpful suggestions here?
