14:01:44 <mattdm> hi everyone!
14:01:50 <tyll> Hi there
14:01:52 <mattdm> #topic Today's Open Floor Agenda
14:02:00 <sumantro> Hii!
14:02:03 <mattdm> what do we need to talk about today? :)
14:02:07 <mattdm> hi sumantro!
14:02:47 <mattdm> if it's nothing, that's okay :)
14:03:19 <tyll> the FAD maybe?
14:03:28 <mattdm> okay, yeah
14:03:32 <mattdm> 1. Council Hackfest
14:03:45 <mattdm> 2. Next week's subproject report
14:04:13 <dgilmore> mattdm: sorry I am in the middle of packing up. I am on my way to Brno for 10 days and will not be available next week either
14:04:39 <mattdm> dgilmore: ok
14:04:54 <mattdm> anything else anyone?
14:04:57 <mattdm> I'm okay with short meeting
14:05:05 <mattdm> #topic Council Hackfest
14:05:16 <mattdm> I have reminded myself that I don't want to call things like this FADs
14:05:26 <mattdm> FADs should be single-day events attached to other conferences
14:05:41 <mattdm> In other contexts, it's too jargony
14:05:50 <mattdm> Hackfest is easier for everyone to udnerstand
14:05:58 <mattdm> understand, even
14:06:04 <mattdm> /endrant
14:06:35 <mattdm> basically, first week in Dec is the best overall
14:06:36 <tyll> are we going to hack there or discuss? ;-)
14:06:44 <mattdm> tyll hack on IDEAS
14:07:06 <mattdm> and in seriousness, outcome will include some actual writing, not just talk
14:07:31 <sumantro> sounds awesome :)
14:08:23 <mattdm> yeah. I am working on an agenda
14:08:45 <mattdm> The basic thing is: it's been five years (!) since the fedora.next initiative
14:08:54 <mattdm> and that was kind of a "set the course for the next five year" project
14:09:04 <mattdm> therefore, it's time to make sure we're on course for the _next_ five
14:09:40 <mattdm> I have some ideas, but it can't just be my ideas. that wouldn't be Fedora :)
14:10:09 <mattdm> bexelbie: when will we have travel dates event space nailed down?
14:10:29 <bexelbie> soon.  I am talking to the folks who find us the hotel.  I need to send an email reply to them
14:10:35 <bexelbie> it will go out after this meeting
14:10:58 <bexelbie> assume we are meeting during hte week of 2 December, probably a fly in on Tuesday, meet from Wed-Fri with departures starting on Friday night
14:11:25 <bexelbie> I will coordinate tickets with folks by email and we will figure out the best way to get tickets purchased
14:11:32 <bexelbie> I hope to have central payment for hotel, etc. so it is easy
14:11:37 <bexelbie> eom
14:11:40 <mattdm> #info Plan is for the week of 2 December. Fly in on Tuesday, departures Friday evening or Saturday
14:11:46 <mattdm> anything else?
14:11:55 * mattdm is sensing a short meeting :)
14:12:26 <mattdm> okay :)
14:12:37 <mattdm> #topic Next week's subproject report
14:12:55 <mattdm> I was kind of thinking maybe we could put sumantro on the spot and ask for a mindshare update....
14:12:59 <mattdm> sumantro, what do you think?
14:13:33 <bexelbie> It would be a good way to motivate sumantro to help me run tonights meeting :P
14:13:43 <mattdm> everyone wins!
14:14:03 <bexelbie> but I can see it being a bit too fast.  That said, if Sumantro is game, I will support him in this effort
14:14:06 <sumantro> yes sure. can you give me how the report will look like? like any specific template :P
14:14:24 <sumantro> bexelbie, i am game!
14:14:35 <mattdm> sumantro: generally, we use meet.jit.si and the presenter has a short slide deck
14:14:42 <mattdm> you don't need slides if you don't want
14:14:44 <mattdm> basic format is:
14:15:06 <mattdm> 1. Current state of the project -- what you're working on or have just completed
14:15:19 <mattdm> 2. Future plans. (Near future and also overall goals.)
14:15:29 <mattdm> 3. Blockers, problems, things the council could do to help
14:15:41 <mattdm> and then discussion if there's time, interest
14:16:43 <sumantro> mattdm, thanks :) sounds good! :)
14:17:13 <mattdm> #info sumantro to present on mindshare at subproject report next week.
14:17:19 <mattdm> #topic Anything else?
14:17:32 <mattdm> I realize I haven't had breakfast and am kinda hungry :)
14:17:46 <bexelbie> I think we should debate what mattdm could eat for the next 43 minutes :D
14:17:58 * bexelbie drinks a cup of coffee :P
14:17:59 <bexelbie> and ducks
14:18:07 * bcotton picked up some tasty coffee cookies in the PRG airport last week
14:18:12 <mattdm> fine, you do that while i go get some eggs and avocado
