14:04:33 <bcotton> we have a short agenda today, so let's...agendit
14:04:35 <bcotton> #topic Today's agenda
14:04:35 <bcotton> #info Help wanted for annual contributor survey
14:04:35 <bcotton> #info Your topics here!
14:05:02 <mattdm> I hear the US might actually pass permanent DST. I move that Fedora throw our weight behind this.

14:05:29 <saroy> \o
14:05:46 <vipul> I am not volunteering for this as I am already somewhat a part of it? (with taking care of things on limesurvey side). If someone wants to learn how to do limesurvey things, I would be happy to walk them through it
14:05:53 <mattdm> hello saroy ! Is that you voting for DST, or volunteering for this :)
14:06:28 <VipulSiddharth[m> if someone's counting votes, take my +1 to remove DST.. imagine how easy would be the calendar :D
14:06:35 <bytehackr> *voting +1
14:06:57 <mattdm> On topic though :)....
14:07:04 <dcantrell> so what kind of help are you looking for with the survey?
14:07:21 <riecatnor[m]> project management type work, someone to keep things on the rails :)
14:07:41 <riecatnor[m]> I have been working on this with Aleksandra Fedorova https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/council/procedures/survey/how-to/
14:07:42 <bcotton> there's an open request to the pgm team, i should nudge on that
14:07:49 <riecatnor[m]> in order to make that as easy as possible
14:07:53 <bcotton> #action bctotton to nudge pgm team on open survey request
14:07:55 <bcotton> #undo
14:07:55 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: ACTION by bcotton at 14:07:53 : bctotton to nudge pgm team on open survey request
14:07:58 <riecatnor[m]> beyond the project management, we need others to help
14:07:59 <bcotton> i know my own name!
14:08:10 <bcotton> #action bcotton to nudge pgm team on open survey request
14:08:27 <mattdm> This survey is incredibly important to measuring Fedora success. I'd love to see a standing team around it that can make it go off like clockwork every year
14:08:27 <riecatnor[m]> there is data analysis, graphic design work, some websites work
14:08:45 <riecatnor[m]> writing promotional stuff for commblog/twitter
14:08:48 <mattdm> And there's a lot of data science we have left unexplored even with the first one
14:09:09 <mattdm> WIth two to compare, there will be SO much
14:09:50 <riecatnor[m]> having someone learn to administer limesurvey would be great as well
14:11:12 <VipulSiddharth[m> +1
14:11:12 <VipulSiddharth[m> I am not planning to take a super long vacation, but always good to remove silos
14:11:12 <VipulSiddharth[m> though I know Ben has experience with limesurvey (he created one for post release survey -- so we have some sort of backup)
14:11:24 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> I can shadow Vipul Siddharth while he does it
14:11:49 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> That of course assuming that he knows ;p
14:12:21 <VipulSiddharth[m> I must add, It's also super easy to explore and get to speed with
14:12:21 <VipulSiddharth[m> there are good docs and forum for it as well
14:12:21 <VipulSiddharth[m> but yes, I can give a demo as well
14:12:43 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> Vipul Siddharth: Thanks! :D
14:13:35 <mattdm> that sounds great
14:13:44 <mattdm> We need to attract some more data science folks to this too
14:15:50 <bcotton> sounds like we have some progress on volunteers. anything else on this topic?
14:16:02 <riecatnor[m]> nothing from me

14:19:46 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> Looking forward to both of these events! :D
14:19:55 <mattdm> But this does mean we'll need someone else to run @fedora on twitter for April 1
14:20:14 <riecatnor[m]> the ambassador call is an important step in the community outreach revamp objective
14:20:31 <riecatnor[m]> big thanks to sumantro @marianab
14:20:44 <VipulSiddharth[m> that reminds me, scheduling tweets on @fedora and @fedoracommunity
14:20:53 <riecatnor[m]> we are getting close to completing the objective!
14:20:55 <mattdm> riecatnor: How can the Council help with that kickoff call? Anything we need to know in general?
14:21:06 <riecatnor[m]> oh no, guess we didnt pull together "fedora for cats" :P
14:21:32 <mattdm> THERE IS STILL TIME
14:21:34 <VipulSiddharth[m> I was looking forward to that ngl
14:21:34 <riecatnor[m]> mattdm: it would be great for council members to share that link

14:25:16 <mattdm> promoting that can't hurt :)
14:25:26 <bcotton> TIL there's a RHEL podcast
14:25:42 <mattdm> there's a podcast for everything!
14:25:46 <riecatnor[m]> rad!

14:26:11 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> #link https://mote-websites.apps.hive.int.drkn.ninja/
14:26:31 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> Still a bit rough around the edges but hey, feel free to provide your inputs
14:26:38 <mattdm> ooh, that's cool
14:27:14 <riecatnor[m]> dark mode 🤩
14:27:15 <dcantrell> is the project going to make a statement regarding this: https://lwn.net/Articles/887931/
14:27:17 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> Every 2 cents counts (in making me rich, you know). Please let us know of your suggestions or bugs here #websites:fedoraproject.org
14:28:08 <riecatnor[m]> dcantrell: I wouldn't be opposed to a statement
14:28:20 <riecatnor[m]> I thought about reposting the original post about wemakefedora, just reiterating that this doesn't change our stance.
14:28:26 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> Our Outreachy intern, Subhangi Choudhary has been of immense help. Her, and Francois Andrieu (Darknao), Michael Scherer (misc) and yours truly.
14:28:42 <riecatnor[m]> AkashdeepDhar[m]: thank you!!
14:28:58 <bcotton> Re: WeMakeFedora, I think we've said all we need to say on the matter
14:30:27 <mattdm> I am not sure. I need to talk to Red Hat legal some more.
14:31:46 <mattdm> But I don't think there is anything to say now.
14:32:00 <dcantrell> fair enough
14:34:20 <bcotton> anything else for open floor?
14:35:06 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> Nothing from my end
14:35:33 <riecatnor[m]> nothing more from me today
14:35:53 <VipulSiddharth[m> nothing here :)
14:36:01 <bcotton> okay, thanks everyone!
