I would've typed more but had this meeting down for an hour from now! So, organized as ever 16:41 waveform, is that a demonstration that you failed handling time zones? So do you want to do the next tzdata release? ;) 16:41 hah 16:42 yes and no :) 16:42 and you clearly shouldn't trust me with it! 16:42 I did some tzdata uploads, and yet my calendar is the same as yours ;) 16:42 waveform, you cannot break it worse than me! 16:42 let me note ahead of time that rbasak has stated they will be abstaining from the vote as a DMB member as there's a personal friendship Conflict of Interest at play 16:43 (yes i read) 16:43 rbasak: would you vote to reach quorum if need be? 16:43 i'm familiar with waveform's work so i don't have any questions but I open the floor to questions from other DMB members 16:44 waveform: thanks for the quick introduction :) 16:45 I'll give you the edge to ask question (hiding that I have none). 16:45 no problem! (he says quickly dumping rpi gpio logic out of his head and trying to swap in packaging knowledge) 16:46 (I would have rpi related question, but they are not related to this meeting) 16:46 bdrung: at least you know who to direct the questions to now xD 16:47 schopin: any questions for waveform? 16:47 if not i'm just going to move on for time's sake to the vote. rbasak if you want to vote to make sure quorum is reached you're allowed despite your desire to abstain :P 16:47 teward, I have known that for much longer. waveform is a colleague in the Foundations team. 16:47 :P 16:48 * schopin is still on the floor from waveform's application. 16:48 I don't have any questions. 16:48 I said someone should pick him up... 16:49 I worked enough with waveform to judge his work. He shows that he knows a lot of corners of Ubuntu. Asking questions where I know that he knows the answer is pointless. 16:50 then i'll move on to the vote for time's sake 16:50 #vote Core Developer rights for Dave Jones (waveform) 16:50 Please vote on: Core Developer rights for Dave Jones (waveform) 16:50 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') 16:50 #votesrequired 4 16:50 Votes now need 4 to be passed 16:50 #voters schopin bdrung teward rbasak 16:50 Current voters: bdrung, rbasak, schopin, teward 16:51 +1 16:51 +1 received from teward 16:51 +1 (see my last comment) 16:51 +1 (see my last comment) received from bdrung 16:51 I'm going to abstain, but if everyone else is +1, and it goes to the mailing list and nobody else has a contrary opinion, then I'll settle it with a +1. I hope that's an appropriate balance between the need to make progress and a conflict of interest. 16:51 rbasak: yep, that should be fine 16:51 schopin: ? 16:51 +1 16:51 +1 received from schopin 16:52 (Since I endorsed, I'm obviously in favour so it's also pointless me asking questions to satisfy myself) 16:52 #info rbasak abstained from voting in the DMB meeting itself 16:52 #endvote 16:52 Voting ended on: Core Developer rights for Dave Jones (waveform) 16:52 Votes for: 3, Votes against: 0, Abstentions: 0 16:52 Motion denied 16:52 so that says motion denied, ignore it 16:53 waveform: you have +3 here, with an abstension from Robie. We're going to have to take kthis to the mailing list to get non-present DMB members to vote on this, we'll have to circle back and let you know how that turns out 16:53 waveform, did you mop the floor with schopin or why is he on the floor? 16:53 no problem! 16:53 bdrung, read the first para of the application :) 16:53 #action Complete Core Dev Application for Dave Jones (waveform) vote via Mailing List 16:53 * meetingology Complete Core Dev Application for Dave Jones (waveform) vote via Mailing List 16:54 Does the current DMB meeting have one more slot (so that I won't have to wait until year 2025)? 16:54 liushuyu: no, we're very close to ENOTIME 16:54 waveform, I read that but I miss what you want to reference there. 16:54 schopin: bdrung: rbasak: do you have more time to review liushuyu's application or shall we wait to the next slot (2025) 16:54 we have only 6 minutes left in the normal time slot, i was 30min delayed due to DAYJOB 16:54 bdrung, oh -- I was merely referring to the fact he would be astonished by the fact I was applying 16:54 I have enough time 16:55 I don't have time, sorry. 16:55 (having dodged it for years!) 16:55 I see. See you in Jan 2025 then 16:55 liushuyu: the next DMB meeting if it were in December would be right in the middle of the holidays, so we unanimously decided to not have an extra December meeting, and we're not quorate for oa meeting for your items, so we'll see you in January 2025 16:56 #topic Previous Action Items 16:56 #subtopic 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) 16:56 yes that's staying carried over 16:56 #action 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) 16:56 * meetingology 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) 16:56 #topic AOB 16:56 #subtopic: Next meeting date - January 1st, 2025 16:56 oops 16:56 #subtopic Next meeting date - January 1st, 2025 16:57 our next meeting is in January, on January 8th, 2025 16:57 ffs #subtopic Next meeting date - January 8th, 2025 16:57 #subtopic Next meeting date - January 8th, 2025 16:57 Another issue is the calendar for DMB meeting might not be correct 16:57 teward, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperMembershipBoard/Agenda says 2025-01-06 16:57 blah i can't read it's 6th 16:57 too much data in the agenda page 16:58 #subtopic Next meeting date - January 6th, 2025 (ignore all other AOB items on this) 16:58 i need more coffee too 16:58 anything else for today? 16:58 I am not sure if I can make it on 2025-01-06. I'll be the last day of my vacation. 16:58 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperMembershipBoard/Agenda says 2025-01-06 > That table was added by me, so might not be 100% correct 16:59 the first quarter of the table looks correct to me 17:00 if there's any issues we can always adjust the list 17:00 but if all looks good then that's fine. 17:00 if there's nothing else from anyone... 17:01 5 17:01 4 17:01 3 17:01 2 17:01 1 17:01 #endmeeting
