I had zero capacity this month, so at least it moves 19:05:24 I am going to have basically no capacity until the 18th 19:05:27 if a few people could help drive that discussion, that would be awesome 19:05:28 the next meeting is the last for me and bdale, right? will there be a going away party? ;) 19:05:38 vorlon: that's true, it will be. 19:05:43 I suppose we should 19:05:46 Champagne! 19:05:47 vorlon: if you're home, I'll take you out for lunch 19:05:50 O, you're always we/lcome to throw peanuts from the gallary at future meetings.:-)( 19:05:51 vorlon: I'm betting the real party will be the first one we're not at... ;-) 19:06:16 haha. :-) 19:06:22 :-) 19:06:28 we can have a going-away-party for you at debconf? 19:07:01 ah, not at all certain that I'll make DebConf next year fwiw 19:07:09 'nyway :) 19:07:13 anyway, sorry to distract 19:07:14 #topic #771070 Coordinate plan and requirements for cross toolchain packages in Debian 19:07:43 Wookie e-mailed me to say that he was still working on a summary, so I'll just let this one sit until that happens 19:08:10 unless someone thinks we should do something differently 19:08:28 #topic #802159 New OpenSSL upstream version 19:08:54 The SRMs are going to try to get some cycles to look at this issue, which is basically all that we could ask for, I think 19:09:24 I think we can just leave it alone and assist if we're asked 19:09:39 maybe monitor it a bit and poke folks if it goes quiet? 19:09:42 but yeah 19:09:47 Mithrandir: yeah, that sounds good to me 19:10:15 #agreed monitor #802159 and assist if asked 19:10:22 #topic #636783 Constitution: super-majority bug & #795854 Constitutional Amendment: Fix duplicate section numbering (A1) 19:10:53 I believe a vote has been called for this, so we can probably close it once that happens 19:10:56 hartmans called for votes, process is now pending on the secretary to launch the machinery, afaik 19:11:07 yeah 19:11:34 #action dondelelcaro to close once the voting process starts 19:11:41 #topic #797533 New CTTE members 19:11:47 we still need more nominees 19:11:53 * OdyX nods. 19:12:03 I also think we might want to compile the info we have on the ones we've received 19:12:10 yeah, I agree 19:12:19 does someone have the cycles to do that? 19:12:41 some of us should explicitely ask people they would like to see onboard, and CC the -private list 19:12:45 In at least one case the justification was entirely non-technical, so I'd probably want to follow up and ask the candidate to describe their technical contributions too. 19:12:49 what we have is useful though 19:13:02 OdyX: I agree 19:13:41 why don't all of us nominate at least one person we'd like to serve with on the committee? 19:14:27 yes please. 19:14:28 #action everyone to nominate at least one person that they would like to serve with on the comitttee? 19:14:54 #topic #795855 Formal cloture vote 19:15:07 for this, I think that hartmans was going to write a summary, and close the bug 19:15:25 I'm sorry, work has exploded. 19:15:31 I will do so second half of this month. 19:15:35 Adding reminder to my calendar. 19:15:48 hartmans: cool; no real rush, since we're going to close the bug anyway 19:16:12 #topic Additional Business 19:16:15 or we could just close and be done with it. 19:16:27 that too 19:16:45 hartmans: whichever you decide to do is fine by me 19:17:01 I think the summary is interesting. 19:17:10 bdale and I had what I think was a great discussion and I'd like to capture it. 19:17:13 I'd just close it, but given the circumstances in which this came up, I suspect I'm the wrong person to voice a deciding opinion 19:17:17 got it 19:17:30 yeah. If you have (or can get) bandwidth 19:17:39 I will schedule it. 19:18:02 anyone have anything else? 19:18:20 nothing here 19:18:31 I think we're closing out most of the open issues right now, and we'll only have a few minor things going forward 19:18:37 plus the nominees 19:18:42 No. The most pressing is getting a long enough list of interested nominees. 19:19:02 always hard to find people both willing and able to serve 19:19:03 is there a list of the current nominees somewhere? I can troll back through email if I need to. 19:19:04 yeah 19:19:32 OdyX: could you write up a list of the nominees and send them out to the -private alias? 19:19:35 bdale: nowhere public, of course, but the conversations have been CC'ed to our private list. 19:19:38 ok 19:19:43 dondelelcaro: yes. I'll do straight away. 19:19:50 OdyX: awesome, thanks 19:20:02 indeed. thanks 19:20:27 it's pretty clear that there's timidity about jumping in here 19:20:34 nothing here 19:20:53 that's understandable, but regrettable. each of us reaching out to folks is a great idea. 19:21:49 yeah 19:22:01 ok; I personally don't have anything else; good to talk to everyone 19:22:11 nothing here 19:22:16 nor here. 19:22:54 nothing here. Not unhappy that the load has reduced too. I still stand to my hope that we could eventually get our list of issues down to zero. 19:23:13 OdyX: in a perfect world, we would never have anything to do :-) 19:23:16 #endmeeting
