20:31 #startmeeting 20 UTC Membership Board Meeting 20:31 Meeting started Thu Jul 7 20:31:59 2016 UTC. The chair is ahoneybun. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology. 20:31 20:31 Available commands: action commands idea info link nick 20:32 Hello and welcome to the Membership Board meeting! 20:32 The wiki page for the Review Board is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/Boards. We will attempt to get through all of the applicants that have added themselves to that list before today's meeting. 20:32 If we are unable to make it through the entire list due to time constraints, then at the next meeting we will pick up where we left off. The format for the meeting is as follows: We will go through the list of applicants one by one, by date of application (FIFO). 20:32 Each applicant should introduce themselves (1-5 sentences) and provide links to their Ubuntu Wiki page. After the introduction the members of the Membership Review Board will review the pages and, if needed, ask the applicant further questions. 20:32 During this time it is encouraged for other members of the community to show their support for the applicant. Do not be alarmed if the members of the Membership Review Board are quiet during this time; they are most likely reading wiki/launchpad/forum/other pages and deciding how they are going to vote. 20:32 hello all 20:32 hi fossfreedom 20:32 hi popey 20:32 #topic David Mohammed 20:33 apologies for the delay in getting started fossfreedom 20:33 no problem 20:33 fossfreedom: could you please throw up links for your lp and wiki page 20:33 :) 20:33 yea sorry about that 20:34 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/fossfreedom 20:34 * ahoneybun kicks Google Calenday 20:34 *r 20:34 https://launchpad.net/~fossfreedom 20:34 thanks! 20:34 do we have anyone speaking for fossfreedom today? 20:35 me! 20:35 you have the floor sethj 20:36 I've known fossfreedom for about 4 years now, since I joined Ask Ubuntu.

Taking things on board. Working with Debian to get the key packages into Debian (then sync with 16.10) - so far got 3 out of 4 in. Working with Jeremy Bicha for the remaining. 20:40 Oh that's excellent news. Exactly what I wanted to hear 20:40 Jeremy is great, and getting the packages in Debian is totally the right way to go, good work! 20:40 No more questions from me. 20:41 having a bit of trouble finding info. is budgie c++? 20:41 its Vala based.
