We already have a Trello for boards, FYI, please do not use GitHub boards. I don't really care between the two, but let's not duplicate info and everyone was already using Trello.
SamWhited
I have closed the GitHub boards.
SamWhited
Feel free to rearrange or rename columns in the trello board if you need to. If you can't, let me know and I'll fix permissions (but I think everyone can)
jonasw
I don’t like trello.
SamWhited
Me neither.
jonasw
any good reason not to move to github "projects"?
jonasw
they’re nicely integrated.
SamWhited
Everyone was already using Trello
jonasw
there’s no tight coupling between the boards, is there?
SamWhited
If the council has a thing on Trello, they can move it directly to the editor board. Let's not try to change our entire process just because I don't love something.
SamWhited
It works and is "good enough".
jonasw
right, maybe I don’t know trello well enough
SamWhited
s/I/we/
jonasw
what I liked about the github things is that you can see right on the PR what the status in council etc. is
Guus
(github has a Trello-like feature?)
jonasw
Guus, yeah, they added that a few months ago I think
SamWhited
Guus: I think they call it "Projects", it's fairly recent.
jonasw
I used it to track PRs through council
SamWhited
I assume Trello has a GitHub integration we could enable, but I haven't tried it; it was never really a problem.
SamWhited
I just don't want info ending up in two places with council looking at our Trello and half the stuff being on GitHub.
jonasw
I put the stuff on council trello whenever needed.
jonasw
SamWhited, what do you suggest as a means of communication so that work I do on the xeps repo (e.g. with respect to tooling) is seen by all active editors?
jonasw
I tried PRs on the xeps repository which apparently didn’t really help.
jonasw
I can ping the editors list, do you think that’d be more useful?
jonasw
also it’d have been nice to get some notice before you simply close the boards -- they are referenced in the current readme
jonasw
and I currently don’t have the time to re-work the readme
jonasw
also it is a bit demotivating to get my work (thought put into a process I can work efficiently with, given that there was only sparse documentation, the timezone issue noone of us can do something about and the huge backlog) reverted without a word of discussion.

SamWhited
jonasw: the email list would be good for communication
jonasw
right, let’s try that
SamWhited
Sorry if it's demotivating, but please don't just duplicate work that's already been done.

jonasw
SamWhited, I understand.

SamWhited
Reworked the readme: https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pull/519
SamWhited
If we want to change in the future that's fine, but for now let's not make the editor process require any more steps than it already does.
SamWhited
And let's discuss before changing the process.

jonasw
SamWhited, okay, fair
jonasw
I’m composing an email with an overview of what I did in the last month besides working on XEP updates.

jonasw
thanks for the fix to the readme
SamWhited
Sure thing; thanks for all the work you've been doing?
