Flory' 17:01:20 hi jwf! 17:01:36 Good $TIME_OF_DAY :) 17:02:22 Hello everybody 17:02:27 mattdm and riecatnor will be absent today unless they lied 17:02:31 .hello2 17:02:32 dcantrell: dcantrell 'David Cantrell' 17:02:36 hi dcantrell 17:02:41 aloha 17:02:44 * bcotton_ takes roll in his head 17:02:55 i think that's everyone present or accounted for except dgilmore 17:03:34 i'll go ahead and do the next round of copypasta and then pause a moment to see if he shows up 17:03:48 #topic Today's agenda 17:03:50 #info Proposal to List Fedora Amazon Machine Images in the AWS Marketplace as Provided by AWS 17:03:51 #info Council (virtual) Face-to-Face planning 17:03:53 #info Your topics here! 17:03:53 hi 17:03:58 ohai dgilmore! 17:04:00 sorry in a meeting running over 17:04:01 aloha! 17:04:09 welcome King_InuYasha 17:04:12 ! 17:04:15 aloha! 17:04:28 I finished the draft of the Content Policy proposal for YT 17:04:36 You can read 17:04:40 And discuss 17:04:41 x3mboy: want me to add that to the agenda? 17:04:41 Yes, that would be good to cover today if there is time 17:04:54 bcotton_, yes, please 17:05:05 ack 17:05:15 #topic Proposal to List Fedora Amazon Machine Images in the AWS Marketplace as Provided by AWS 17:05:16 #link https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/332 17:05:26 davdunc appears to not be here 17:05:47 I don't think he knows about the meeting here 17:06:05 he does because we talked about it yesterday 17:06:14 ah 17:06:20 i just pinged him in #fedora-meeting-1 directing him here if he's available 17:06:36 I think I am mostly okay with it. I know that there were issues with getting there due to the legal agreements needed. I hope that the legal types say this is a good way to get around them 17:07:16 from cloud-wg side, we're okay with it :) 17:07:21 * jwf waves to davdunc 17:07:28 * davdunc waves back! 17:07:34 davdunc: welcome! 17:07:45 thanks bcotton_ 17:07:54 * King_InuYasha waves to davdunc 17:07:58 :D 17:08:03 davdunc: so i'll admit that i'm not entirely clear what we're being asked for here 17:08:51 so bcotton_ we have historically not been able to deliver images through the AWS Marketplace because there is a requirement to sign a contract. 17:10:07 this would allow me to replicate the images in an AWS internal account and then present them to the marketplace team's account for security scanning and replication across all regions, including govcloud. 17:11:02 The AWS MP requires a seller of record and this shortcuts that requirement. 17:11:16 * King_InuYasha grumbles at all this legal hoopla 17:11:23 If I understand correctly images will be built and signed by Fedora, you will only copy them? 17:11:37 that's correct bookwar 17:11:48 no modifications to the image whatsoever. 17:11:57 we sign images? 17:12:01 TIL 17:12:11 #info Images would be built by Fedora and copied unmodified by AWS 17:12:14 King_InuYasha: S3 really signs the image. 17:12:23 ahhh 17:12:23 then the needs are 1) AWS needs approval for the trademark use and 2) AWS needs Fedora to setup the landing page, where it will be defined how to file issues and where to get support for these images 17:12:33 right? 17:13:11 bookwar: correct. Plus any code used in the replication would be in Pagure for inspection. 17:13:24 sounds awesome :) 17:13:35 so that the process is kind of a reference for anyone building solutions. 17:13:36 cloud-wg agreed on Tuesday to permit this 17:13:42 is this landing page a fedora-hosted page that the AWS Marketplace links to, or is it conent in AWS? 17:13:46 we'll be adding davdunc to cloud-sig repo and create an aws folder 17:13:51 for that stuff to be stored 17:13:59 There is content in the AWS Marketplace 17:14:01 #info Cloud-WG agreed on Tuesday to allow this 17:14:34 we'll also be adding an aws tag for issues filed about the AWS image for davdunc to triage 17:14:37 there is a load form where the content is defined. I propose to keep that in the Pagure project. 17:14:40 #link https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/sresults/fedora_cloud_meeting.2020-09-29-15.58.log.html#l-202 17:14:47 then the marketing team can manage the content. 17:15:24 so pull requests and tickets for updates on next releases along with version identifiers for the product listings. 17:15:56 okay, so from the Council's perspective, this is essentially a trademark use request. the rest is getting contributions from the appropriate teams 17:16:20 bcotton_: That is what I was thinking too 17:16:31 And we could consider spins as well later, if this is identified as successful. 17:16:46 that would be awesome :-) 17:16:56 Yes! 17:17:08 bcotton: that's the minimum, but we may want to also help to market this effort, ask Mindshare group to look into this or example 17:17:34 I can take that as an action item bookwar 17:17:34 That would be a big win for Spins and Labs :) The Spins and Labs community could use a big win like this since it is a (mostly) community-maintained effort 17:17:44 okay, so i think we'll handle the trademark request in-ticket. we can keep talking if there are additional questions for davdunc, or we can move on to the next topic 17:17:48 (thinking ahead if this is successful) 17:17:59 bookwar: sure. a magazine article would be good, if nothing else 17:18:09 davdunc++ 17:18:09 bookwar: Karma for davdunc changed to 1 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 17:18:14 bookwar: I am happy to submit an article. 17:18:18 davdunc++ 17:18:39 davdunc: we might have it go out under mattdm's name, but we can discuss that later :-) 17:18:42 We could circulate a Fedora Magazine article in many different channels (announce@, social media, Discourse, Reddit, etc.) 17:18:44 davdunc++ 17:18:44 x3mboy: Karma for davdunc changed to 2 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 17:18:54 "people" write things for mattdm all the time ;-) 17:19:10 yes. I was thinking that was appropriate bcotton_ 17:19:17 :-) 17:19:45 I'll write a briefing for Matt and he can use it as he see s fit. 17:19:55 davdunc: sounds good! 17:19:57 Matthew* 17:20:04 +1 17:20:27 anything else for now on this topic? 17:20:36 I think i have my actions. 17:20:43 Mindshare and briefing. 17:20:53 davdunc++ for facilitating this work! 17:20:53 jwf: Karma for davdunc changed to 3 (for the current release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 17:21:02 jwf: this is a privilege. 17:21:03 yep. i'll mark this as a trademark issue and we'll have a vote in ticket 17:21:06 Guerrilla marketing? 17:21:49 x3mboy: let's work on the load form as a marketing project and make it Fedora awesome. 17:22:07 +1 17:22:36 #topic Council (virtual) Face-to-Face planning 17:22:38 #link https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/331 17:23:00 so, we mentioned this briefly in the last meeting, but normally we'd be meeting somewhere in the next 4-6 weeks, but this is not normal 17:23:11 so we should figure out when to do it virtually 17:23:58 one thing that i know some Red Hat teams have done with their internal meetings is to spread them out over a few weeks. since we're not bringing people to a physical location, there's no need to have everyone smushed together (and there may be some value in splitting it out) 17:24:41 So no in-person meeting? 17:24:46 so i think ~2 days of total meeting seems appropriate, but we may spread it out 17:24:57 x3mboy: yeah, unfortunately 17:25:34 bcotton_: +1 for spacing out, but there is also some value in keeping the time concentrated together 17:25:44 e.g. 2-3 hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays for 2 weeks 17:25:49 bcotton_, ok. I think 16 hours (2 business days) can be spread in 4 hour in 4 days. 17:25:59 yeah, that's what i was thinking. (both of you!) 17:26:23 Same wavelength :) 17:26:26 am I the only person getting burned out on these marathon video conference sessions? 17:26:55 dcantrell: not at all 17:27:11 100% with you 17:27:39 I love video conference, but I miss people 17:27:41 :'( 17:27:46 x3mboy++ 17:27:50 x3mboy: 100% with that too 17:27:57 same, but it's also that I'm still at my desk and it's too easy to still do other work 17:28:14 yeah, i haven't figured out how to solve that problem yet 17:28:15 having a separate gathering that you physically go to makes it easy to say "ok, for this period of time I am not doing my other work" 17:29:39 Here! 17:29:50 bcotton_: What is the CTA here? A doodle poll for dates? 17:29:53 * riecatnor reading back 17:30:01 jwf: getting there :-) 17:30:01 dcantrell: try moving from the desk to a different place _inside_ the house, to another room for example, to change the scenery 17:30:05 ack 17:30:12 dcantrell: may help to do the mental switch 17:30:21 dcantrell, I do it like this: Personal laptop, Fedora and personal Stuff. Work laptop, work 17:30:29 okay so it sounds like we're in general agreement that four blocks spread out across two weeks seems like the least-bad approach 17:30:39 #action bcotton to start a poll for dates 17:30:42 bookwar: working from home is already the worst thing in the world. upstairs is school because everything is terrible, more upstairs are bedrooms and I'm not letting work invade more of my house 17:30:43 Desktop build problems :P 17:30:43 bcotton_: +1 17:31:02 dcantrell: big mood, as the kids say 17:31:27 i'd also encourage everyone to make sure you reply to marie's email on council-private today :-) 17:31:48 I have a reply in progress 17:32:03 * riecatnor wonders if I am the only one who likes wfh 17:32:20 I do miss traveling and seeing people a bunch still. 17:32:38 i love wfh, i hate wfhdap (wfh during a pandemic) 17:32:54 riecatnor: It is like a rollercoaster ride for me, there are ups and downs! 17:32:59 to be fair, i hate many things during a pandemic 17:33:04 #topic Proposed content policy for YouTube 17:33:05 #link https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/323 17:33:09 bcotton_, yes, that. 17:33:30 Oh well, I pretty much copy the magazine guideline and adapt some stuff 17:33:30 x3mboy has drafted a proposal, if you haven't looked yet 17:34:08 And add the format requirement and the "Copyrighted material" part 17:34:24 if nobody has strong objections to it, we can do the Policy Change Policy process next week (or sooner, but i'd like to give time for 1. people to read and provide material feedback and 2. the clock to expire on the other policy proposal in flight) 17:34:40 seems pretty good 17:35:29 looks good, though it might be useful to link to some good content sources if the author needs an alternative to copyrighted material 17:35:31 x3mboy: that's the open source way 17:35:42 Do we make it clear anywhere that content uploaded to our YouTube is CC BY? 17:35:57 I think we have our channel configured to use CC BY metadata by default 17:36:11 I just thought of that since I have been uploading videos to YT all week 17:36:32 i actually wonder if we should go ahead and make this a general content policy that applies to Magazine, YouTube, etc etc 17:36:43 but i'm totally fine with keeping the scope narrow for now, too 17:36:44 (technically it is implicit because of the FPCA but might be helpful to be explicit here) 17:36:51 jwf, good catch. I need to make that explicit 17:37:10 bcotton_: Yes, I think there is high value in generalizing this 17:37:33 Maybe "Trademark Guidelines: FAQ" :P 17:38:33 i'm not quite sure this is trademark guideline, exactly, since it's more about how we editorialize content 17:38:36 but yeah, i see what you're saying 17:38:52 jwf: does youtube let you specify CC BY on content? 17:39:00 Yes 17:39:05 bcotton_, yes, it does 17:39:11 CC BY or YouTube Content License, or whatever that is called 17:39:14 There are only two options 17:39:22 No deviations 17:39:30 ah okay 17:40:00 i think i'm remembering wanting to use CC BY-SA on somthing and it not being available 17:40:05 brains: not super reliable 17:40:09 But for the scope of this policy, I like adding an explicit note to x3mboy's draft and moving forward. Maybe we could adapt it to a Council policy later. 17:40:17 Depending on how well it works for YouTube and the Magazine 17:40:28 Actually, maybe a good question for the Magazine Team at the next video call Council meeting 17:40:31 Mee too, also, that part is responsability of the uploader, not the creator 17:40:32 Since that is coming up anyways 17:40:36 what do you mean "adapt it to a Council policy"? what is it if not a Council policy? 17:41:08 bcotton_: Sorry. I mean, a general Council policy for content versus a YouTube-specific policy 17:41:18 understood! ok 17:41:35 yeah, let's proceed with a narrow scope now. easy to expand later :-) 17:42:04 +1 17:42:14 +1 17:42:22 proposed #agreed We'll let this sit with the Council until Monday and then start the Policy Change Policy process on it 17:42:36 +1 17:42:52 +1 17:43:12 +1 (x2) 17:43:27 +1 17:43:45 +1 17:44:09 #agreed We'll let this sit with the Council until Monday and then start the Policy Change Policy process on it 17:44:24 x3mboy: do you want to start drafting the CommBlog post announcing the proposal or do you want me to? 17:45:00 bcotton_, depending on speed. I can't this week, if that can wait to next week, I can do it 17:45:13 But if we need it this week, so please you do it 17:45:28 My dog needs surgery and cares 17:45:30 :'( 17:45:35 nah, it can wait. it's necessary to start the clock on the community comment period, but there's no rush on this 17:45:37 :-( 17:45:45 x3mdog++ 17:45:49 i hope the surgery goes well 17:47:11 x3mboy: Hope it all goes well 17:47:47 Thanks 17:47:55 #topic Next meeting 17:47:57 #info The next video meeting is Thursday 8 October featuring Chris Murphy talking about BTRFS 17:47:58 #info The next regular business meeting is Thursday 15 October 17:48:02 #topic Do we have anything to announce? 17:48:03 #info This is a regular check to make sure we're communicating to the contributor (via CommBlog) and user (via Magazine) communities 17:48:09 #info Fedora 33 Beta was released 17:48:10 #link https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-the-release-of-fedora-33-beta/ 17:48:21 #info Community Publishing Platforms policy has a few days left in the community comment period 17:48:22 #link https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/council-policy-proposal-community-publishing-platforms/ 17:48:37 #info Fedora Womens Day post coming to Community Blog tomorrow 17:48:49 #info Release Party post coming to Community Blog on Monday 17:48:53 anything else? 17:49:35 Not from me 17:49:51 bcotton_ is great! 17:49:59 * bcotton_ blushes 17:49:59 .thank bcotton 17:49:59 jwf thinks bcotton is awesome and is happy they are helping! (Please also type bcotton++ since that is what gives them a cookie) 17:50:03 #info bcotton_ is great! 17:50:05 lol 17:50:09 :D 17:50:17 Oh, I do have a question 17:50:23 jwf: go ahead 17:50:47 bcotton_: I have a minor change to make to the Community Publishing Platform proposal based on feedback from Rhea. I haven't made it yet but was going to add it today or tomorrow. Does this affect the feedback process? 17:51:33 jwf: depends on the value of "minor", but in general we haven't said that the text must be unedited 17:51:34 #link https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/council-docs/pull-request/67#comment-132834 17:51:50 the unstated assumption is that feedback gets incorporated in the process 17:52:00 OK. I will make the edit and make a post about the new commit to council-discuss. 17:52:04 As an FYI 17:52:17 jwf++ 17:52:28 I will get that done today for any final feedback before the window closes 17:52:42 #topic Dashboard check 17:52:43 #link https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/dashboard/ 17:52:49 oh I have something to add 17:53:05 #undo 17:53:05 Removing item from minutes: 17:53:05 #action jwf Add final edit to Community Publishing Platform, announce commit to council-discuss 17:53:06 #undo 17:53:06 Removing item from minutes: ACTION by jwf at 17:53:05 : jwf Add final edit to Community Publishing Platform, announce commit to council-discuss 17:53:09 D'oh 17:53:10 #undo 17:53:10 Removing item from minutes: 17:53:12 sorry, jwf 17:53:16 Jinx! 17:53:23 * jwf holds 17:53:24 I agree that moderators should precede going to CoC 17:53:25 go ahead and re-action yourself 17:53:28 #action jwf Add final edit to Community Publishing Platform, announce commit to council-discuss 17:53:30 riecatnor: go ahead with your thing 17:53:52 But there is a value in us receiving reports that require no action from us at all 17:54:17 for compound reasons 17:54:29 and for cross community reasons. 17:54:47 okay, let's have that conversation in the mailing list thread, then? 17:55:16 There is a challenge with scaling that process and what the reporter might be expecting as an outcome to making a report 17:55:28 #topic Dashboard check 17:55:30 #link https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/dashboard/ 17:55:50 Can we go back a little bit? 17:55:57 jwf: you raised red on the BLM update. what can council do to help here? 17:56:02 I have a question regarding the moderators 17:56:23 bcotton_: We need to publish it ASAP. I know and appreciate the work being done on this behind the scenes, but we really need to get it out if it is going to go out at all 17:56:26 x3mboy: we're almost out of time, let's have discussion about the substance of the proposal on the mailing list thread, please 17:56:27 I have to admit I am burnt out on writing that. 17:56:30 Or else it might cause the inverse response we want 17:56:36 bcotton_, Ok 17:56:42 After 3 times, and it going back and forth, I don't have it in me any longer. 17:57:09 I really feel like my first letter was closer to what we want. 17:57:15 riecatnor: What could we do to support you on this? I have some capacity to support on this but not sure if this has red tape or not. 17:57:29 jwf: arguably, the time has passed :/ who did we decide was the group responsible for actually publishing it? 17:57:39 It just needs to be re-written with you and bookwar feedback 17:57:44 from the council f2f 17:58:03 Council, I believe. 17:58:40 I don't think it needed a full rewrite, but a small addition maybe. I could help with language. But I am wondering about timeliness and relevance 17:58:42 riecatnor: am I correct in remembering that D&I was going to give us the text to sign, essentially? 17:59:02 sort of? I wrote every version so 17:59:07 lol 17:59:24 But the Council did not all agree to its contents at the F2F 18:00:06 I can take an action to do follow-up work on the letter since riecatnor has done a lot of great work in getting this to where it is already 18:00:26 i guess it's not clear to me where the action lies that this point. my understanding was that it was with D&I, but this makes it sounds like Council has been the blocker? 18:00:37 bcotton_, it was with me 18:00:43 ok 18:01:57 riecatnor: so are you okay with jwf taking the update action? 18:02:03 absolutely 18:02:28 #action jwf to do follow-up edits on the Black Lives Matter letter in D&I #135 18:02:32 Thanks bcotton_ 18:03:02 jwf: there's another red area "Team policy and governance" that probably can't be sovled in the minus 2 minutes we have left 18:03:09 is it an FYI or a request for help? 18:03:13 No, but that is low urgency 18:03:25 It has been a constant red light I guess, I just put it there 18:03:35 haha, i know that feeling 18:03:36 Can cover later 18:03:44 BLM letter was more important 18:03:46 okay, might be a good mailing list thread 18:03:54 or we can save some time in the next meeting 18:03:59 Yeah. Can revisit once BLM letter is shipped 18:04:07 but since we're already running over time, are there any OMG OMG OMG things? 18:04:17 Not from me 18:04:38 nope 18:04:39 okay, thanks everyone 18:04:43 thank you! 18:04:52 I'll see your smiling faces next week on the video meeting :-) 18:04:59 #endmeeting
