11:40:34 <pjp> pravins: Yesterday reminder was sent,
11:40:44 <pravins> aha, on Ambassador list?

11:43:32 <pjp> #topic open issues
11:44:13 <pjp> pravins: jonatoni I think it'll help if folks at least vote/comment on open tickets, that's important.
11:44:42 <jonatoni> I thought that the new meeting time would help more ambassadors to join
11:44:57 <jonatoni> :/
11:44:57 <pjp> We don't seem to have agreement about meeting time, even after they agree to it ;)
11:45:38 <pravins> Amita: hi :)
11:45:53 <Amita> hello pravins
11:46:16 <pjp> jonatoni: it's recurring theme, we select meeting time, but forget to show-up
11:46:39 <Amita> hey pjp jonatoni
11:46:47 <pjp> Amita: Hi
11:46:51 <pravins> i think, this is good topic to discuss in flock
11:46:57 <jonatoni> they need a reminder on their calendar, that's what I do to not forget things :P
11:47:04 <jonatoni> Amita hi :)
11:47:09 <paragan> I think this is the first meeting at new time, let the people be familiar with this new timing. also reminder was sent yesterday only
11:47:25 <Amita> I agree with paragan
11:47:37 <Amita> once we get into the flow, people will join
11:47:38 <paragan> I will suggest to send reminders on local/regional lists by that country's ambassadors as well
11:47:51 <Amita> It is good to ping them as well to remind for first few
11:47:53 <pjp> paragan: let people be familiar with it?:)
11:47:54 <pravins> to be frank, since i was on IRC i came to know about this meeting. Somehow i missed email :(
11:48:04 <pravins> Can we have something like google calendar notification?
11:48:13 <paragan> pjp, new timing :)
11:48:36 <Amita> I think we start meeting
11:48:44 <pjp> paragan: Even people who voted for this time and agreed to it aren't here
11:48:45 <Amita> set topic
11:49:00 <paragan> pjp, yes I can see that
11:49:27 <paragan> pjp, maybe good to ping those people at start of roll call
11:49:29 <Amita> pjp, may be they forgot about it due to work?
11:49:48 <Amita> I think we should who all are online atleast
11:50:21 <pjp> Amita: paragan  I think that's pushing people to join meeting, don't think that should be required ideally.
11:50:48 <Amita> pjp, like pravins pinged me, I am feeling thankful to him. Not bothered
11:51:04 <Amita> as I totally forgot about meeting even though I voted for this timings
11:51:25 <Amita> pjp this is our nature of work that we even forget to drink water ..
11:51:26 <pjp> Amita: Heh, that's something you need to fix, not depend on pings from others ;
11:51:28 <pjp> :)
11:51:59 <Amita> pjp, From next time yeah, I will set reminder for myself, but for now we can do the same for others may be
11:52:41 <misc> maybe having a meeting is not really the right way for the group to work, and alternatives ways might be used ?
11:52:50 <pravins> pjp: for redhatters, we can have calendar invite as well.
11:52:59 * pravins brb
11:53:31 * sayan is here
11:53:47 <pjp> misc: +1, I agree, what's important is for ambassadors to convey their inputs on tickets and/or mailing list
11:55:39 <pjp> Okay, considering many of us are here, let's start with the open issues
11:55:58 <pjp> #topic Budget request for FAD Delhi -> https://pagure.io/ambassadors-apac/issue/275
11:56:31 <pjp> I don't think we need to spend $ 50/- for this event.
11:57:37 <pjp> IMO, ambassador's or Fedora volunteers are already providing service by going to a college and conducting a full day event
11:57:41 <rtnpro> .fas rtnpro
11:58:28 <sayan> pjp: where will the money be spent?
11:58:52 <pjp> sayan: refreshments IIUC,
11:58:53 <praveenkumar> As per ticket it say on snacks
11:59:10 <sayan> Okay, I see it now, I was looking in to wiki page

12:07:23 <pjp> #topic About moving CC to a new card holder -> https://pagure.io/ambassadors-apac/issue/276
