| ted | === Start Meeting === Agenda: * SFC Items (ted) * Student programs (Outreachy, GSoC, etc) ( @Tav ) * Developer meeting update (Mc) * Vectors update ( @ryangorley ) * Infrastructure update ( @doctormo ) * Administrator job process status ( @doctormo ) * Current Votes Status * Next Meeting: May 6, 2022 Okay, kick off with SFC stuff. First up is our traditional overview: https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/2283429 Not a lot going on there, even though we've voted for stuff to spend money, that hasn't hit our account much yet. I started playing with a format to track the allocations we've made. I'm stealing from QuickBooks reports that we use for our Rotary chapter. Here's my first attempt: https://office.inkscape.org/nextcloud/index.php/s/yqgxF5ecknaYzNF I know folks just saw it, but as you think about it ping me sometime, I'd like to make it better. | 17:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Tav | Hi | 17:03 |
| ted | Any financials questions? | 17:04 |
| karen | ted: we can help get reports generated directly from our systems too, pono and Rosanne can help | 17:04 |
| ted | karen: ah, cool. We can play with that as we start to figure out what we want. I don't think we're ready to codify yet. First drafts and all | 17:05 |
| karen | makes sense. | 17:06 |
| ted | Cool, the other thing I'm tracking SFC-wise is the FSA update. I just pinged SFC about it today preparing for this meeting (which is a bit late to have a status for this meeting) But, I think we're good on our side. | 17:07 |
| karen | yes got the ping, I think you're good on your side too I'll get to it soon! | 17:07 |
| Mc | cool :) | 17:07 |
| ted | Awesome | 17:07 |
| karen | (I just need to comb through what you sent to mkae sure I dont' miss anything + double check updates we've been getting from counsel to make sure the agreement is latest and greatest all around ) | 17:08 |
| ted | So next up is student programs: * Student programs (Outreachy, GSoC, etc) ( @Tav ) karen: 👍️ | 17:08 |
| karen | :) | 17:08 |
| Mc | we have a few interested students for gsoc, applications start in 3 days (less than usual, but it seems to be the case for most of gsoc orgs that told about it on the mentors ml) | 17:09 |
| ted | Nice. That's good. | 17:09 |
| Tav | Lots of interest.. we'll see if we get good proposals. | 17:09 |
| doctormo | Hello | 17:10 |
| ted | Do we need to prepare some call for mentors or something? Or just wait right now. | 17:10 |
| karen | yes word is that's happening across participating projects | 17:10 |
| Mc | currently we'll wait | 17:10 |
| Tav | Wait, I think. | 17:10 |
| Tav | I | 17:11 |
| Tav | I'm most excited about possibly getting rid of the garbage collector! | 17:11 |
| ted | K, makes sense. Haha, that would be really nice! | 17:11 |
| Mc | for outreachy, iirc we have some voted budget from 1y ago but afaik did not put projects for the summer round | 17:11 |
| doctormo | @Tav The student came to the developer meeting yesterday for that project. | 17:12 |
| ted | Nice segway @doctormo! Next up: * Developer meeting update (Mc) | 17:13 |
| Mc | beta next week, release in may (precise date tbd by a vectors meeting) most things are fine, with a big regression in glib 2.72 | 17:13 |
| Tav | BTW, I just discovered the Paint Server dialog is completely broken... | 17:13 |
| scislac[m] | What's the regression? | 17:14 |
| Mc | file descriptors passing is half-broken on windows so, no extensions | 17:14 |
| Tav | It doesn't insert the pattern/hatch into the <defs> section. | 17:14 |
| scislac[m] | yikes | 17:14 |
| doctormo | @Tav Report it, I know Rafael has been refactoring that. | 17:15 |
| Mc | bug is in discussion with glib devs, there is hope fo a quick 2.72.1 | 17:16 |
| Tav | There is a student interested in working on expanding its use for GSoC. | 17:16 |
| ted | K, sounds like things are making progress. It wouldn't be a beta without bugs 😉 | 17:16 |
| doctormo | Lots of uptream issues this cycle, it's interesting. | 17:16 |
| Mc | (ah also iirc poppler released 2022.04 hours ago so we need to see if things are broken with it) (btw, it's better for me if it's a quick meeting, I'll have to go soon-ish) | 17:17 |
| doctormo | I think we're in good shape generally though | 17:18 |
| ted | K, seems like it to me too. Okay, let's make sure to move on then: * Vectors update ( @ryangorley ) | 17:18 |
| doctormo | Their meeting is tomorrow; they've got a video to discuss and are on standby for release announcements | 17:20 |
| ted | Hmm, seems he's away. And hopefully a release date. | 17:20 |
| doctormo | Yes we're pushing more for vectors to set the schedule, rather than follow one defined by devs. | 17:21 |
| ted | Not sure if @Moini is here, I forget when but I believe we just had a conference? | 17:21 |
| doctormo | So they can plan out their announcements in good time. | 17:21 |
| Mc | kielux uh, no, sorry | 17:21 |
| ted | Chemnitzer Linuxtage | 17:21 |
| Mc | yes | 17:22 |
| ted | Okay, let's keep going there. * Infrastructure update ( @doctormo ) (also feel free to go on to: * Administrator job process status ( @doctormo ) ) when you're done) | 17:22 |
| doctormo | Website is upgraded, rocket chat went down because of a full disk now has very tiny file upload quota. | 17:23 |
| Mc | it could be upped but after people using RC define a policy for expiring files | 17:23 |
| doctormo | We're on track to push the website up to the latest django and hopefully move to a better CMS in 2022 | 17:23 |
| ted | Great that it's fixed, do we need more disk? | 17:23 |
| Mc | problem was not exactly disk size but (in)efficiency of mongodb storage for files | 17:24 |
| doctormo | There was a spam attack against the website and forums, new measures were put in place, couple of hundred accounts deleted. | 17:24 |
| Mc | (+ a rocketchat bug that's now circumvented) | 17:25 |
| doctormo | Quick update for the project coordinator position: the process is with pono, who is batching up entrants and sending them to the jobs at mailing list soon. | 17:25 |
| doctormo | There's an extra two weeks of time to get more people to apply and give us some space to breath. | 17:25 |
| pono | After extending the submission date, we've received more applicants! | 17:26 |
| Mc | nice | 17:26 |
| doctormo | great | 17:26 |
| ted | K, should we do something to gather community input on the new CMS? Or something else? Not sure how we could move forward best there? pono: Awesome, how many are we up to? | 17:26 |
| pono | I'll work on sending the current list out today to the jobs and boards list About 18 last I checked! | 17:26 |
| doctormo | ted: current state of cms is *exploration phase*, we'll do a proper deep dive on the options before any code is made. | 17:27 |
| pono | A pretty wide pool of experience and background which is great | 17:27 |
| ted | Great! I was a bit worried we wouldn't get any applicants 😃 | 17:27 |
| Mc | @doctormo isnt django standard ? pono: nice :) | 17:27 |
| doctormo | Mc: django doesn't have a cms. | 17:27 |
| doctormo | It's a choice of different cms packages that go on top. | 17:27 |
| ted | @doctormo, makes sense. | 17:27 |
| Mc | oh ok, I thought it was \ | 17:28 |
| doctormo | that's one of the options, and one we want to move away from ;-) | 17:28 |
| ted | Thanks for the updates. I think that just leaves the closing items. * Current Votes Status We've got technically two open votes: The security keys, and mentor reimbursements. But generally thanks for keeping up on the votes everyone! And the always exciting: * Next Meeting: May 6, 2022 Anything else for the meeting? (we were efficient today) | 17:29 |
| Mc | :) | 17:31 |
| doctormo | Video meeting is in *two weeks* not one as usual: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/30/ | 17:31 |
| ted | Cool, thanks everyone! === End Meeting === | 17:31 |
