14:00:47 <zodbot> asamalik: asamalik 'Adam Samalik' <asamalik@redhat.com>
14:01:16 <bcotton> hello asamalik
14:01:22 <asamalik> hello bcotton
14:01:55 <dgilmore> hi all
14:02:06 <bcotton> hello dgilmore
14:02:21 * asamalik waves at dgilmore
14:02:23 <bcotton> i know mattdm and langdon won't be here. let's see who else shows up
14:02:42 <asamalik> I think contyk is out today, too
14:03:13 <jibec[m]> hi
14:03:19 <bcotton> bonjour, jibec[m]
14:03:54 <jibec[m]> connection here is bad, wait and see if I can respond when needed
14:04:00 <bcotton> i think we'll skip the first two items on the agenda since the people we need to hear from are not available
14:04:11 <bcotton> i'll give folks one more minute to show up and then we'll begin
14:05:12 <bcotton> #topic Today's agenda
14:05:23 <bcotton> 1. #268—Long-term funding request: translation platform hosting
14:05:32 <bcotton> 2. #267—Planning Hackfest 2019
14:05:35 <bcotton> 3. Open floor
14:05:48 <bcotton> #topic Long term funding request: translation platform hosting
14:05:49 <bcotton> #link https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/268
14:06:21 <bcotton> so jibec[m] has requested funding for a translation platform. there's not much discussion on the ticket yet, but i thought this would be a good opportunity for questions if anyone has them
14:06:38 * pbrobinson is sort of here
14:06:52 <bcotton> sort of hello pbrobinson
14:07:48 <bcotton> anyone have questions or comments about jibec[m]'s request?
14:08:02 <dgilmore> being aware of the situation I am all for finding a sustainable solution
14:09:09 <bcotton> agreed
14:09:27 <asamalik> I'm following this topic because it's related to the Docs translations we've prototyped with jibecfed
14:09:47 <bcotton> asamalik: that would be useful information to add to the ticket :-)
14:10:09 <asamalik> bcotton: on it
14:10:17 <jibec[m]> well, I feel like it's written already
14:11:27 <jibec[m]> maybe I forgot to tell that having the new translation platform is a requirement for being able to translate our documentation (before we don't want to invest time in making it fully compatible with Zanata)
14:11:30 <asamalik> we've kind of proven it works in staging: http://docs.stg.fedoraproject.org
14:12:13 <asamalik> but I don't have specific questions myself... just having it in place would be nice :)
14:13:22 <dgilmore> it seems like there is currently only 1 viable platform right now
14:13:22 <bcotton> okay, it doesn't sound like there are any burning questions at the moment, so we can continue discussion in the ticket. i suspect it will be a little slow to move for the next week or two with post-flock vacations and the like
14:13:36 <jibec[m]> FYI, we have three person on the translation mailing list who said they are willing to help for the administration of the platform
14:14:08 <bcotton> jibec[m]: is that administering the hosted instance or is it administering a self-hosted version on communishift?
14:15:13 <jibec[m]> well, there are sysadmin stuff and weblate administration do, they offered to do the weblate part (adding project, configure teams, etc.)
14:15:48 <bcotton> ok
14:15:55 <bcotton> #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/trans@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/VDBX62N3ZVSADGX5ZHIQRWVOK2OPBBCE/
14:15:57 <dgilmore> jibec[m]: so helping manage the hosted version
14:16:03 <dgilmore> ?
14:16:40 <jibec[m]> yep
14:17:10 <jibec[m]> I'll teach them what I know, and we'll learn together for team configuration and other stuff
14:17:42 <dgilmore> okay
14:18:55 <bcotton> anything else on this topic?
14:19:13 <asamalik> nothing else from me
14:19:43 <bcotton> #topic Planning Hackfest 2019
14:19:45 <bcotton> #link https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/267
14:20:16 <bcotton> not much for discussion here, i think, just a reminder for folks to weigh in. i'll push mattdm to drive us toward a decision when he's back from vacation
14:20:46 <bcotton> anyone have anything to discuss on this matter?
14:21:45 <bcotton> #topic Open floor
14:21:46 <asamalik> I think I've responded in the thread bud I can also respond to the ticket so it's easier to find
14:21:51 <bcotton> anything for the open floor?
14:23:35 <jibec[m]> yes
14:23:59 <jibec[m]> we discussed two localization objectives for fedora, how does it work to submit it?
14:24:57 <bcotton> jibec[m]: you'd need to write up an objective proposal and then submit it to the council for vote. see https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/council-docs/pull-request/61 for an example
14:25:03 <asamalik> jibec[m]: when I was proposing Minimization I opened a ticket lie this: https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/253
14:25:46 <asamalik> *like
14:26:20 <jibec[m]> can I first write a blog post to discuss it with more people in the community?
14:26:47 <bcotton> jibec[m]: absolutely. having community support and refinement helps strengthen your proposal
14:27:16 <jibec[m]> ok, I'll do that then, I'm not in a rush, there is a huge amount of work :p
14:27:34 <jibec[m]> eof
