16:02 #startmeeting DMB meeting 16:02 Meeting started at 16:02:46 UTC. The chair is sil2100. Information about MeetBot at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology 16:02 Available commands: action, commands, idea, info, link, nick 16:03 #topic DMB elections 16:03 rbasak: thank you for sending our the call for nominations 16:03 I think we still have one nominee so far, right..? 16:03 Yes 16:03 Nominations are open for a further week I think. 16:04 I don't know what to do if we don't receive enough nominations. I think we may need to consult with the TB if that happens (while still trying to get more I guess) 16:04 I think the e-mail mentioned 23rd as the voting time start, right? 16:04 Yes, but that's conditional on having four nominations 16:04 (I haven't checked the date) 16:04 So I guess no action items for now then, let's see how many people are interested 16:05 My intention was to allow enough time for nominations and for a public discussion period 16:05 #topic Review of previous action items 16:05 (taken roughly from the schedule I used last time) 16:05 So we have quite a lot of action items needing reassignment 16:06 Let's see which ones we can assign to the existing memebers and for which others we'll just wait for new DMB members to come in 16:06 (or remove) 16:06 * pkgset tooling needs full documentation and automation 16:07 I think this is good to be done, but nothing critical, so I'd leave it for when we have a full squad 16:08 * tsimonq2 to better document what we expect applicants to know (will be carried until mentioned) 16:08 I think this one is very important and I'd like this to be picked up even now, if possible 16:08 I agree and I'd be happy to do it, but I don't have the capacity in the next few weeks. 16:08 This would be the first step to making the application processa bit more standardized 16:09 rbasak: let me start off on that one and then maybe pass it on to else (or do some collaborative work on it) 16:09 I think with some recent applications we've had to decline, it makes sense to try and be far more specific than we have been in the past on our expectations. 16:09 Sure 16:10 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RobieBasak/DMB/CoreDev is my page that I would like to expand on. 16:10 #action sil2100 to better document what we expect applicants to know, at last an initial draft and then pass over to rbasak (will be carried until mentioned) 16:10 * meetingology sil2100 to better document what we expect applicants to know, at last an initial draft and then pass over to rbasak (will be carried until mentioned) 16:10 But IMHO it's time to take something like that and make it general and DMB-wide (figuring out what to adjust to get consensus on the way) 16:10 +1 16:11 We'd have to discuss the final version though, since I assume members might have different criteria 16:11 Yes absolutely. 16:11 So I assume the final version would need a full DMB for voting 16:11 That's the hard/time consuming part, but it needs to be done 16:11 Ok, moving on... 16:11 * ddstreet to write up a proposal for upload access expiry following some period of disuse (will be carried until mentioned) 16:12 yes please reassign or remove it 16:13 Is this still something we want to pursue? I mean, it's certainly an idea that might make things clearer, but I don't think the current no-ruleset is a problem? 16:13 Taking into consideration the lack of resources right now 16:13 So I'll unassign it from ddstreet but qestion is: do we still keep it for future assignemnt? 16:14 I'll keep it, but without assignment for now 16:14 * ddstreet edubuntu seed <-> pkgset (carried over) 16:14 Was this requested by someone? 16:17 Okay, leaving this one unassigned as well 16:17 * ddstreet update DMB KB to clarify new contributing developers should only be added to ~ubuntu-developer-members, not to ~ubuntu-dev nor ~ubuntu-uploaders 16:17 I don't think this was resolved, and I think it's good to do? 16:18 Let me take that 16:18 #action sil2100 update DMB KB to clarify new contributing developers should only be added to ~ubuntu-developer-members, not to ~ubuntu-dev nor ~ubuntu-uploaders 16:18 * meetingology sil2100 update DMB KB to clarify new contributing developers should only be added to ~ubuntu-developer-members, not to ~ubuntu-dev nor ~ubuntu-uploaders 16:18 * ddstreet update application docs and possibly DMB checklist, to make sure candidates have signed CoC before applying and before DMB approves (carried over) 16:19 rbasak, teward: any of you want to take care of this one? 16:20 ...ok, guess people are busy, so I'll just assign that to me for now 16:20 Same as before for me - I can do it in a while but don't want to take it right now. 16:20 Might take a bit for me though, possibly later this week, so still better 16:20 #action sil2100 update application docs and possibly DMB checklist, to make sure candidates have signed CoC before applying and before DMB approves (carried over) 16:20 * meetingology sil2100 update application docs and possibly DMB checklist, to make sure candidates have signed CoC before applying and before DMB approves (carried over) 16:21 The * ddstreet schedule new election for vacant DMB seats - this is basically resolved 16:21 Then there's some action items from teward, and two of those are 'done' with the only one to be carried over is '* teward follow up to get all application process wiki/docs to explain the process to be able to edit wiki pages, for applicants who don't yet have wiki edit access (carried over)', so I'll leave it as is 16:21 Any questions regarding action items? 16:22 Moving on! 16:22 #topic Ubuntu Contributing Developers Applications 16:22 So we still have an ongoing application for xypron via e-mail 16:23 We need one more vote for the application to be 'handled' 16:23 ddstreet: are you able to vote? 16:23 sure, can you start the vote? 16:24 #vote xypron to become Ubuntu Contributing Developer 16:24 Please vote on: xypron to become Ubuntu Contributing Developer 16:24 Public votes can be registered by saying +1, -1 or +0 in channel (for private voting, private message me with 'vote +1|-1|+0 #channelname') 16:24 +1 16:24 +1 received from ddstreet 16:24 o/ 16:25 Rest already voted! 16:25 #endvote 16:25 Voting ended on: xypron to become Ubuntu Contributing Developer 16:25 Votes for: 1, Votes against: 0, Abstentions: 0 16:25 Motion carried 16:25 ddstreet: thanks! 16:25 xypron: yaay, we can add you now! 16:25 :) 16:25 ddstreet do you want to do the additions/announcement, or would you prefer me to do the honors instead? 16:26 you please 16:26 #action sil2100 to finalize xypron's Ubuntu Contributing Developer membership 16:26 * meetingology sil2100 to finalize xypron's Ubuntu Contributing Developer membership 16:26 #action sil2100 to announce xypron's Ubuntu Contributing Developer successfull application 16:26 * meetingology sil2100 to announce xypron's Ubuntu Contributing Developer successfull application 16:26 ...that's a lot of action items ;p 16:27 Might need some late night coffee for that! 16:27 #topic Mailing-list requests 16:27 I didn't see any, so I think we're good? 16:28 #topic Open TB bugs 16:28 None 16:28 #topic AOB 16:28 Any other business, anyone? 16:29 Hopefully we'll be fully staffed soon 16:30 I would love for possible DMB candidates to apply by themselves, knowing that they'll have enough time during the 2 year period 16:30 Okay, going once... 16:30 Going twice... 16:30 #endmeeting
