We covered the topic of content for the sub-project report extensively yesterday, and even though it was Marketing, it's definitely applicable to Diversity too. 11:33:39 fyi I am not writing fad report blog thing due to time and stuff 11:33:47 * jwf goes to plug laptop in to charge 11:34:29 jwf, yes, I had the similar stuff in mind when I watched the videos you shared 11:34:43 jwf, we need to decide on topics we going to present 11:34:52 jwf, and that can be done as team 11:35:27 jwf, I can lead the efforts by opening an etherpad and putting some of the topics ( I believe FAD is going to be the major talking point) 11:35:49 Amita: An Etherpad would be a good start. And we have a ticket in our Pagure for this already, right? 11:36:04 but before that, we should have the date ticket for council 11:36:34 Amita: Okay, cool, we do have a ticket – I think starting the Etherpad and linking it in our ticket would be a good next step. 11:36:35 jwf, yes we have the report ticket in pagure 11:37:04 Amita: It's a specific day they have allocated for it – if I remember right, the next one would be April 26, but the Council / Matt can clarify on this 11:37:19 #action Amita is going to start the etherpad for report and link it to the ticket#17 11:37:36 Any other previous action items? 11:37:53 * Amita jonatoni will update ticket#16 with blog link 11:38:03 let me check 11:38:30 o.o 11:38:33 she did 11:38:37 this is done 11:38:46 #nfo Done - jonatoni will update ticket#16 with blog link 11:38:48 jonatoni++ 11:38:50 #undo 11:38:50 Removing item from minutes: ACTION by Amita at 11:37:19 : Amita is going to start the etherpad for report and link it to the ticket#17 11:38:57 #info Done - jonatoni will update ticket#16 with blog link 11:39:05 okay moving next 11:39:28 #topic Tickets 11:39:29 #action Amita is going to start the etherpad for report and link it to the ticket#17 11:39:36 .hello linuxmodder 11:39:37 linuxmodder: linuxmodder 'Corey W Sheldon' 11:39:41 jwf, I already added that :/ 11:39:56 Amita: When you did #undo, it removed the action item above. 11:40:24 jwf, so what (I am blind) so what 11:40:30 :P 11:40:37 :) 11:40:38 okay you win 11:40:47 No problem :) 11:41:03 hehe 11:41:08 Ticket #3 - Guidelines for reporting Code of Conduct violations 11:41:22 #link https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/3 11:41:36 okay I disconnected 11:43:19 I don't have much on this one, but afair jwf you decided to put the action plan in this ticket 11:43:50 12:54:12 Right! So then the follow-up question(s) could be something like: (1) What is helpful for someone writing a report to enable the reader(s) to solve the problem? (2) What is important to protect the anonymity of the reporter? How should reports be considered for privacy? (3) What kind of end results to a report do we want to consider? 11:44:08 Amita: Do we want to try answering these now? 11:44:21 Or would mailing list be easier because of low attendance? 11:44:36 jwf, we really should have them in ticket, to get replies from all the team mates 11:44:56 Amita: I can start this discussion now on the list if that would be helpful. 11:45:02 jwf, mail and ticket update both , I guess 11:45:06 * jwf nods 11:45:13 thanks jwf 11:45:32 #action jwf Start thread on Diversity mailing list about Code of Conduct reporting guidelines and the questions from last meeting 11:45:37 #info (1) What is helpful for someone writing a report to enable the reader(s) to solve the problem? (2) What is important to protect the anonymity of the reporter? How should reports be considered for privacy? (3) What kind of end results to a report do we want to consider? 11:45:42 #action jwf will open discussion for ticket#3 in ML 11:46:29 also jwf I also think, we should open our private ML (which we created) to start with? 11:46:52 Amita: How do you mean? 11:47:39 open means - mention it to community that this exists and one can report issues with the above designed guidelines (once the guidelines will be ready) 11:47:57 this = Mailing List 11:48:32 jwf, am I making sense ?!?! or am I still in that python patch :( 11:49:05 Amita: Right, this makes sense about the list, I mean. But before we communicate that it exists or start thinking about that, we probably want to start with those guidelines first. 11:49:40 jwf, ofcourse , For Sure ( (once the guidelines will be ready) - only after that 11:49:42 So this might make a good thing to focus on after we have the discussion about some of those intro questions, because we might have a more clear idea then about how it fits into the picture 11:50:36 jwf, yes, just keep that option open and remember that we have it :) 11:50:43 +1 :) 11:50:58 moving next - #12 - Survey - Numbers are important 11:51:11 Did we have anything new to cover here? 11:51:18 #link https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/12 11:51:19 As far as I remember, it's still stuck in the legal process 11:51:28 Not sure what we can cover without either bexelbie or marinaz 11:51:36 * Amita nods 11:52:00 * jwf is starting to wonder if a new meeting time would be helpful or if it's just been ironic timing the past couple of weeks :( 11:52:02 jwf, I kept this, so that it does not go off the radar 11:52:14 Amita: +1 11:52:36 jwf, marina may not join because of the new member coming to her family soon 11:52:55 and bexelbie is traveling , so it is not timing issue I think 11:53:07 That too – the early morning time is definitely tough in the US too 11:53:10 he's working actually 11:53:11 Jona also traveling 11:53:19 and has council meeting in an hour 11:53:27 It just seems like the meetings we've been having since the FAD have been low attendance consistently 11:53:55 Could just be bad luck with traveling and other one-time commitments, but makes it hard to make progress when a lot of team members are missing 11:54:08 i'm gonna disappear now if you don't mind 11:54:16 Rhea: Yeah, you've got your presentation :) 11:54:19 Rhea: Good luck!! 11:54:23 :] 11:54:53 good luck Rhea 11:54:54 Amita: Not to derail completely from the ticket, but I'm starting to feel like something might not be working about the meeting time 11:55:12 Our meetings since the FAD have felt sort of empty 11:55:21 jwf, I think for deeper connect on the ticket and work , Mailing list is the best ting 11:55:40 jwf, I don't think so, last meeting was full 11:55:53 last time we had everyone on the meeting 11:56:11 still if there is some issue with time, we can discuss with team mates 11:56:15 Amita: True, but the meeting time gives us all a chance to check in and collaborate in real time with each other too. I could just be misreading because of one-time commitments and other things, but we will be more productive if the rest of the team is here. 11:56:48 jwf, I agree with you, even I want to catch up with all :) 11:57:01 jwf, so let's ask 11:57:14 * jwf also wonders if a longer meeting time would be help, since we're always running out of time to cover everything too. 11:57:32 jwf, it is 1 hour of meeting 11:57:50 jwf, I am not sure if all the members will be able to give more than 1 hr 11:57:55 * jwf wonders if an extra 30 minutes would help, like for CommOps 11:58:16 Possibly, but I feel like our meeting time is always cut a little short especially since we only meet once every two weeks 11:58:50 Not enough time to give attention to detail that some of these topics deserve 11:59:24 right, like the report one 11:59:31 Right. 11:59:33 and I feel the progress on things are really slow 11:59:58 for example, COC thing 12:00:24 * jwf agrees 12:00:34 jwf, and FAD report :P 12:00:43 just kidding 12:00:43 Yeah, and that's definitely on me 12:00:51 Poor planning on my part, but I'll own responsibility to that one 12:01:12 I was really just kidding while mentioning that hehe 12:01:27 I know we're going over time now, but I also wanted to share this now too: https://blog.justinwflory.com/2017/04/stepping-out-fedora-may-august-2017/ 12:01:31 but I agree, we should meet often , talk more, discuss deeper 12:02:01 Amita: +1 12:02:30 hey, we gonna miss you for sure 12:02:45 I am not sure how many people going to be regular 12:02:51 :( 12:03:00 without you it will be difficult 12:03:11 but just 4 months, right? 12:03:25 Yeah, from early May until just before Flock 12:03:56 no issues, I understand though you will be missed a lot 12:03:59 So roughly three full months, give or take a few days 12:04:21 Yeah, it's going to be weird to be out of Fedora for so long. Hopefully it isn't going to be too crazy for me to get caught up on things again. 12:04:26 I am afraid if I will be the only one running the meeting lol 12:04:51 jwf, I would like you to fix this before you leave 12:05:03 So we should definitely try to find something that works for as many people as possible before I depart for the summer :) 12:05:05 please start a thread or ask for better timings? 12:05:07 Amita: Sure, what's up? 12:05:24 Yep, I can do that. Was working on my other reply to the mailing list, so I will do this now too 12:05:38 thanks jwf 12:05:43 #action jwf Start thread on mailing list to find new meeting time for team members / interested people 12:05:55 ok, so we have already crossed time 12:06:06 Amita: Another thing I'd like to try to prioritize before I leave too (talked about this with bee2502 yesterday) is on-boarding new team members to Diversity 12:06:11 I am ending meeting here and we can discussion on our channel 12:06:17 +1, can move there. :) 12:06:21 Thanks for chairing, Amita! 12:06:23 .thank Amita 12:06:25 jwf thinks Amita is awesome and is happy they are helping!
