XSF Discussion - 2014-01-23

    Alex: I noticed that I don't have a blurb on the Board page. In fact only Bear has one. Can you add mine? The council one I had can be viewed here: https://web.archive.org/web/20130928005539/http://xmpp.org/about-xmpp/xsf/xmpp-council/

  2. Alex

    check: http://xmpp.org/about-xmpp/xsf/the-xsf-board-of-directors/

  3. Kev

    ralphm: You should have access to add that yourself, I think?

  4. Kev

    Heh, or Alex is just that fast.

  5. ralphm

    Kev: I do?

  6. Kev

    Do you not have an xmpp.org account?

  7. ralphm

    Kev: I actually don't know

  8. Alex

    didn't know that you work for Rackspace now, do they XMPP stuff?

  9. ralphm

    Alex: not as far as I am aware

  10. ralphm

    Alex: I work on the Mailgun team.

  11. Alex

    ah, OK

  12. Alex

    there is an account for Ralph, but only as Subscriber

  13. ralphm

    I'm not sure I know what that means

  14. Alex

    but he's on board now, so can delegate this stuff ;-)

  15. ralphm

    I think I had an account on athena long, long time ago

  16. ralphm

    hmm, my .ssh/known_keys knows hades, zeus and atlas

  17. intosi

    edwinm@athena:~$ id ralphm id: ralphm: No such user

  18. intosi

    same on atlas.

  19. Alex

    ralphm: can give you higher role I think if you want

  20. ralphm

    Alex: again, I don't know what roles there are and what they are for, exactly.

  21. Alex

    Admin, Editor, Subscriber. Most are admin, I think you also need to be an admin to edit content which you have not created in wordpress

  22. Kev

    You don't have to have an account if you don't want one, I think.

  23. Kev

    Was just surprised :)

  24. dwd

    My answer seems slightly longer than Evgeny's. :-)

  25. Lloyd

    Hi all, if Surevine wanted to pay for a bunch of our developers to attend the meal is that allowable?

  26. Kev

    I think sponsors get non-XSF seats.

  27. dwd

    Lloyd, Sure - XSF Dinner sponsors are allowed to attend.

  28. dwd

    Lloyd, In fact, that's one of the ideas behind it.

  29. Lloyd

    Right, who would I organise that with?

  30. dwd

    Lloyd, Me.

  31. simon

    1. send money to Simon's private account. 2. ??? 3. $$Profit

  32. Lloyd

    Cool, just confirming some details and I'll get someone to contact you.

  33. simon

    dwd beat me.

  34. Lloyd

    dwd damn you ! :)

  35. intosi

    dwd is buying rounds this FOSDEM ;)

  36. dwd

    intosi, I was serious - I'm handling XSF Dinner sponsorship. :-)

  37. intosi

    I know.

  38. dwd

    intosi, So yeah, I guess I *am* buying rounds. And dinner. :-)

  39. intosi

    For he's a jolly good fellow!

  40. king.war

    Bonjour

  41. SouL

    Hello.

  42. ralphm

    Goede dag!

  43. dwd

    Noswaith dda.

  44. dwd

    (Probably. I'm never sure about the mutation there)

  45. intosi

    Hoi

  46. Alex

    Prost here now ;-)

  47. bear

    i'm working on getting email address for those who are attending the summit (a cisco wifi requirement) - work in progress will be here:

  48. bear

  49. MattJ tries to see how many he can remember by memory, just for fun

  50. bear

    haha

  51. bear

    i'm cheating - searching thunderbird

  52. Kev

    This may be a question I regret asking, but ...

  53. bear

    :)

  54. Kev

    The vegetarians have to have sandwiches.

  55. Kev

    This is presumably because it's impossible to have pizzas without meat on?

  56. bear

    no - just wanted to give options

  57. bear

    i've run across a couple gluten-free vegetarians

  58. Kev

    Which makes bread a problem, I guess.

  59. bear

    yea

  60. Kev

    Thus sandwiches as their alternative.

  61. bear

    clarification (I hope) emailed

  62. Kev

    This is not something I'm making a big deal about.

  63. Kev

    I was just somewhat amused.

  64. bear

    understood

  65. Kev

    Particularly by "There may be people who can't eat pizza because it's got bread in it. So let's get them sandwiches" :D

  66. bear

    I just wanted to be clear in my communication - food is one of those things that can really upset folks who have tighter requirements than others

  67. bear

    ah - *now* I get it

  68. bear

    *sigh*

  69. bear

    i'm not going to email another clarification since I don't seem to be doing a very clear job ...

  70. Kev

    You'll have to forgive me, I've had a long week, I'm going to get my giggles where I can.

  71. bear

    hehe - no worries - I am also giggling at that

  72. bear

    it's a classic bear'ism - I'm trying to be clear and helpful and end up just adding more to the mix

  73. MattJ

    count me as confused, especially as bread is something I can eat

  74. Kev

    MattJ: You /do/ know that bread is made from pig, right?

  75. MattJ

    I shan't answer that one

  76. bear offers up another email to delight and amuse the crowds

  77. dwd

    Sorry. Couldn't resist.

  78. Zash

    What did you do!

  79. dwd

    Mail to the list.

  80. Zash

    Ah, the slow list.

  81. Zash

    o/

  82. Zash

    I approve of this post.

  83. dwd

    It's fast for me. But you're way down there in the 'Z's.

  84. Zash

    Received: from atlas.jabber.org (atlas.jabber.org [208.68.163.215]) by mail.zash.se (Postfix) with ESMTP id 72D3C6097A for <zash@zash.se>; Thu, 23 Jan 2014 22:59:18 +0100 (CET)

  85. Zash

    So, who should I bother about TLS?

  86. dwd

    IPv6, too.

  87. dwd

    It's something to raise to the iteam, I suppose. I'd be happier if there was a useful way to do TLS auth, though, in SMTP.

  88. Zash

    Authenticated email? Good luck.

  89. dwd

    Authenticated transport for email.

  90. Zash

    Authentication anywhere near email?

  91. Zash

    I'm sure I heard someone who were going to do email over XMPP not long ago

  92. dwd

    Silent Circle.

  93. Zash

    Mmmmm

  94. intosi

    Bother iteam, they will delegate it to me, and I will probably look at it before FOSDEM ;)

  95. intosi

    Or rather, let someone pick it up, which might very well be me.
