XMPP Council - 2017-07-05

it's about time

1) Roll call

here

dave announced he'll be missing via mail

Link Mauve, daniel, ping

Here too.

I'm not really here. As I mentioned last time

Hi from the RMLL. o/

daniel, alright..sorry i forgot

2) Minute taker

I can write the minutes

3) compare and publish is still not in the inbox, rihgt?

Correct

OMEMO/ODR discussion is probably still in progress, right

I have sent an email to Kev with the process improvements I think need to be made for discussion; ball's in the iteams court for discussion or implementation now

I don't think iteam have anything to do with it :)

But I do have the mail I need to reply to.

Yah, I guess they weren't all infrastructure related

4) Date of next

Andy sent an update to the OMEMO discussion from last week. It all sounds sane. TL;DR if you haven't seen it yet: He would like to remain involved, but does not feel that he has the time to do a full rewrite so finding a new author seems good (but he does have a few small changes to submit soon)

alright

Sorry, I'm one behind Tobias

no worries

anything actionable for the council now regarding OMEMO?

Do we want to put out a call for a new author, or just let Andy make incremental changes as time allows?

Happy to call out for a new author and see if someone sensible shows up

so...for date of next...next week usual time?

WFM

WFM too

5) AOB

The editor backlog is getting dire; while I don't think it will help in the long term, I may put out a call for more editors in the hopes that it will help in the short term. I'm concerned that if I do, no one will actually know how the process works to show them what to do, and it no longer matches what's in the README, and we no longer have a wiki, so I'm still torn. Thoughts welcome.

Maybe it's worth waiting on discussion from Kev, or maybe it's worth doing immediately?

Call for help seems sensible.

yup..sounds sensible

I think the process improvements are orthogonal to that.

Reminder to vote on publish options

And maybe other things

See trello

Kev: Can you show any new people who volunteer how stuff works? I still don't know (remember?) how any of the docker things work or how to publish stuff

I expect so. The one problem is that I *really* don't want to have to give editors shells on eos to do stuff.

So maybe it's not as orthogonal as I thought.

heh, yah, I was about to say that; if that's a blocker then we need to wait on process improvements.

But equally, if people can do all the merge-work github-side, then actually deploying new images is not hard, even for me.

So I guess we'll continue to wait on that; nevermind. Thanks all.

thanks

any other AOB?

doesn't look like it

thanks everybody
