XMPP Council - 2019-10-30

Good news, my jabber.org accout still works. Bad news, it has 328 spam messages awaiting me.

Yay?

DSL router died on me at the weekend, so my subnet is offline while I use a crappy router instead, and my server is on that subnet.

Dave Cridland, I’ve heard some work is in progress to fix this issue on jabber.org.

I've heard there are people working on a much better way to filter xmpp spam.

That said, I'm currently having a medical condition and may not be able to participate.

Afternoon.

1) Roll Call

Ge0rG, Kev, Link Mauve, jonas’ ?

Here

Hi, I’m here.

my laptop is crashing

I'll be a few minutes late

Well, that's enough for a meeting anyway.

2) Agenda Bashing

If I remember correctly, CS-2020's Last Call is officially halfway through, so that's not ready yet.

Is there anything else?

here I am

yes

https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pull/840

I was about to say we'll pause here for jonas’ :-)

pep., anything to add?

*reading*

my machine is still recovering, and I mostly missed last week editor-wise for private reasons, so I hope pep. has anything to add

jonas’, no nothing to add on #840, just that it was forgotten last week

pep., I mean, are there other things for council to look at?

I'm +1 on 840,.

+1 too.

Yeah, let's do that.

2) Items for a vote

a) https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pull/840

I see Kev and Link Mauve are both +1.

I am too, this looks like a good precedent to set.

+1

And Ge0rG will then be on list.

That's 4 of 4 present, and Ge0rG to vote on list.

3) Next Meeting

Same time next week? We should have CS-2020 to consider for Advancement then.

+1w wfm

Same.

If too late for this week, items to consider for next week: https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pulls?q=is%3Apr+label%3A%22Needs+Council%22+-label%3A%22Needs+Version+Block%22+-label%3A%22Needs+Board%22+-label%3A%22Needs+List+Discussion%22+-label%3A%22Needs+Author%22 :)

If labels are not appropriate, I would gladly update them with some guidance

Let’s try to do the review of CS-2020 before the meeting so we can vote on it directly.

pep., you missed an "is:open"

oops

https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pulls?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Apr+label%3A%22Needs+Council%22+-label%3A%22Needs+Version+Block%22+-label%3A%22Needs+Board%22+-label%3A%22Needs+List+Discussion%22+-label%3A%22Needs+Author%22++is%3Aopen+is%3Apr

better

https://github.com/xsf/xeps/labels/Needs%20Council is a shorter URL for the same data.

Link Mauve, incorrect

pep.’s URL is deliberately excluding some labels

Oh sorry.

Right - all those have been discussed before here.

pep., although, excluding "Needs Version Block" is wrong ✏

In any case:

4) AOB

not from me

Elections...

jonas’, ok

Looks like we have only three candidates for Council. It'd be good to have a contested election here, so please consider standing (if you're not) and poking others to stand.

I'm very reluctant to stand again, I'm supremely time-limited.

As noted, I'm not intending to Chair next year for similar reasons.

But in any case, please do think about who might be a good person on Council, and encourage them to stand.

And anyone reading this in the chatroom probably ought to consider standing. :-)

Anyone have any other any other business?

not from me

OK, assuming we're done then.

5) Ite, Meeting Est.

Thanks all.

thanks Dave

Thanks.

Thanks. :)

I suppose an addendum to the above - the Council selects what time to meet each year, so if you wouldn't stand because these meetings are at an inconvenient time, then that's something that we can change easily if you get elected.

I'm +1 on #840, if that still counts.

Ge0rG, you can post to the list, but yeah

Dave Cridland, Kev, Ge0rG, jonas’, Link Mauve: does anyone want to vote on XEP-0292 (vCard4 Over XMPP) ?

I probably should have, but won't be doing so today.

theTedd, going to, thanks for the reminder

it expires today, so I thought it's worth the nudge

I'm sorry, I totally forgot. My knowledge in that regard is lacking, so I'd go with a +0

Link Mauve ?

Also please don't expect me to post to the list any time this week

I hope you get better, soon

I thought I already voted on this one, I’m definitely +1.

then it all hinges on Dave Cridland.

+1, if people are happy with it then so am I.

Is this a good time to mention that there was a thread prior to the original LC about the contact part, and how it ought to use contact JIDs as item IDs
