I think we may see more as ipv6 gets more deployments. 17:07:07 ok, can't think of much else. 17:07:17 #topic Tickets 17:07:22 we have no tickets this week. 17:07:36 #topic Meeting time 17:07:55 There was some more talk that the meeting time wasn't great for everyone... does anyone have any proposals on new times? 17:08:01 or should we just stick with this? 17:08:34 This time works well for me, but did those with conflicts have any alternate ideas? 17:08:37 nirik, Guess we can ask on the list. But 1pm East coast time is hard for a few of us 17:08:38 * fenrus02 waves 17:09:13 yeah... 17:09:24 #info anyone who wants a different time, suggest it on the list. 17:09:35 yeah 17:09:53 normally if I can't make it I just post it in op's 17:10:45 yeah. 17:10:45 ok. 17:10:47 #topic Open Floor 17:10:52 anything for open floor? 17:11:00 problem children in -social 17:11:24 not just -social, they seem to have spread to others 17:11:31 Ozborne was yet again banned in -social for his behavior. 17:11:50 And dvanstone has been causing problems 17:12:04 those 2 are causing issues in some channels 17:12:18 the second is mostly nonsensical rambling 17:12:35 I banned dvanstone the other night for an hour so a day is next then week 17:12:37 the former mostly winges about being +b in -fr 17:13:00 * nirik nods. When disruptive, bans or quiets are needed... 17:13:17 lets hope they relax and stop being disruptive. 17:13:31 I normally do not ban unless absolutely necessary 17:14:09 Political issues have been brought up recently to in -social. It's very hard not to get involved. 17:14:28 it's voting season again, politics are going to come up often 17:14:32 Is it really a problem as long as things don't get heated? 17:14:35 please do point those people to #politics. 17:14:50 NiveusLuna, it's against freenode policy 17:14:52 Have the offenders been responsive to requests to stop? Do they just get hostile? 17:14:55 ah, right. 17:15:01 NiveusLuna: some things like politics tend toward getting heated sadly. 17:15:16 same as religion 17:15:27 nirik: they do, but there are a lot of people in -social who can take it without getting heated, which is why i asked. 17:15:42 glguy, generally the conversation goes from calm calm calm to OMGWTFBBQ ! in a flash. 17:16:02 glguy, best to just divert those to somewhere else. 17:16:09 there are a few political channels people can join 17:16:11 NiveusLuna: yeah. 17:17:18 anyhow, if nothing else, will close out in a minute 17:17:23 +1 17:18:31 Thanks for coming everyone! 17:18:33 #endmeeting
