17:32:52 <bexelbie> #topic Roll Call
17:32:52 <bexelbie> .hello bex
17:32:54 <zodbot> bexelbie: bex 'Brian (bex) Exelbierd' <bexelbie@redhat.com>
17:33:16 <relrod> I'm quasi-here, but my mind is in about 8 different things right now
17:33:19 <nb> Hello
17:33:20 <nb> I am here
17:33:48 * coremodule lurks in the background...
17:34:46 <bexelbie> glad to see you both
17:34:52 <bexelbie> all three
17:34:53 <bexelbie> :D
17:35:24 * bexelbie wonders if we will get others
17:35:39 <bexelbie> relrod, nb mind looking at 161 and 162 while we wait?
17:35:44 <bexelbie> they need votes - from one or both of you
17:36:00 <bexelbie> 161 is critial - I know we have support but we have a documentation issue - we need that third vote
17:37:29 * nb voted
17:38:48 <bexelbie> so I am not sure we have a ton to discuss other than those tickets
17:39:01 <bexelbie> the FOSDEM folks are still organizing - looks like someone is going to drive a booth request and then a master ticket
17:39:22 <bexelbie> I, like everyone it seems, am also busy as heck and could use help from someone to organize and drive the meetings for a few weeks
17:39:40 <coremodule> bexelbie, Can I drive that booth request? Is that a request to the FOSDEM folks or to the Mindshare committee?
17:39:44 <bexelbie> do we want to discuss specific things
17:40:21 <bexelbie> coremodule, you can do both - the booth request goes to FOSDEM and the master ticket comes to Mindshare for funding and support.  -- there is an email thread going on ... someone volunteered and I think mitzie was going to mentor - can you look there?
17:40:39 <coremodule> Ahh, sure, I'll take a look!
17:40:40 <bexelbie> I think someone volunteered - I am also now at 6 stars of priority trying to sort my mail ... I am losing that fight
17:40:42 <bexelbie> :D
17:40:52 <tg-fedmindshare> <s​umantro93> Hey
17:42:36 <bt0> hi
17:43:00 <bexelbie> @sumantro93 and bt0 can you all look at 161 and 162 they need votes
17:43:07 <bexelbie> the FOSDEM folks are still organizing - looks like someone is going to drive a booth request and then a master ticket
17:43:18 <bexelbie> I, like everyone it seems, am also busy as heck and could use help from someone to organize and drive the meetings for a few weeks
17:43:22 <bexelbie> any open floor issues?
17:43:57 <bt0> ok
17:43:59 <tg-fedmindshare> <s​umantro93> I can take this
17:44:42 <bexelbie> this is?
17:45:21 <tg-fedmindshare> <s​umantro93> this is the booth request and the master ticket is anyone hasnt taken it up already
17:46:04 * nb would really like to go to FOSDEM
17:46:48 <bexelbie> FOSDEM folks should organize - see the email threads
17:47:04 <nb> but i doubt it'd work out for me to go
17:47:23 * bexelbie is personally in favor of finding EU based contributors first for cost effectiveness reasons as no one has had a swanky expensive reason to do more their for some time.  My real preference would be a swanky effort there :)
17:47:40 <bexelbie> s/their/there/
17:47:50 <nb> bexelbie, I would agree
17:47:53 <bexelbie> any open floor issues (last call)
17:48:03 <tg-fedmindshare> <s​umantro93> I concur with bex
17:48:07 <bt0> not really
17:48:18 <nb> I am generally not in favor of flying people across the ocean unless there's a good reason
17:48:21 <nb> due to cost
17:48:29 <bexelbie> we could also use soem good talks in the distro dev room
17:48:57 <bexelbie> We have money - I'd like reasons to spend it that aren't .. well "X said they wanted to go for unstated no goal based reasons"
17:49:00 <bexelbie> if that makes sense
17:49:08 <nb> true
17:49:12 <coremodule> bexelbie, I have a few talks I'
17:49:13 <bt0> right
17:49:15 <bexelbie> Impact is the currency we really need to be spending :)
17:49:32 <coremodule> d like to give at FOSDEM, but I couldn't find the CfP on their site... Do you know if the submission period is closed?
17:49:36 * bexelbie debates making a cryptocurrency joke .. but its not worth it :P
17:49:47 <bexelbie> coremodule, each dev room has a separate CFP
17:49:53 <bexelbie> see the link under the news section for the whole list
17:50:00 <coremodule> Got it, thanks.
17:50:09 <bexelbie> FOSDEM itself does accept talks - but they may all be invited
17:50:12 * bexelbie isn't actually sure
17:50:17 <bexelbie> and they ahve a lightning talk room
17:52:19 <coremodule> Found it
17:52:21 <coremodule> https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM20
17:56:27 <bexelbie> that's the engine
17:56:35 <bexelbie> each CFP listing will tell y ou waht they are looking for/want
17:57:57 <bexelbie> ending meeting due cessation of topics :)
17:57:59 <bexelbie> thank you all
