MyrttiYOU ARE CARING I KNOW20:07
IdleOneI am :/20:07
Fuchswas dis?20:07
AlanBellso, the subject of this meeting is the IRC Council nominations, we are following the process outlined here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcCouncil20:08
AlanBellnominations we know about so far are . . .20:08
AlanBellTm_T and Pici20:08
Tm_TPici: rock on20:09
AlanBelland if anyone else would like to nominate themselves now is the time to do it20:09
Fuchsdo you actually need more or do you have enough?20:09
Fuchs(pondering, hence asking)20:09
AlanBellwell we should have 520:09
* AlanBell nominates himself20:09
AlanBellnow we have 320:10
Tm_TFuchs: there's no "enough"20:10
topyligood going! :)20:10
IdleOneso, topyli and funkyhat are not running for another term?20:10
topylinot me at least20:10
PiciReal life things :/20:10
AlanBellthe idea is we collect lots of nominations and put them forward to the CC who will set up the process for selecting 5 of them20:11
IdleOnereal life things are good, hopefully.20:11
AlanBellso if we don't make it to 5 that is a bit inconvenient, but not unheard of, last time there were 4 initially20:11
* Fuchs waits for now, then20:11
Picihm20:12
* IdleOne nominates self20:12
AlanBellyay \o/20:12
Piciwoo20:12
IdleOnewhat the hell, might as well give you folks a run for your money20:12
topyliyes!20:12
Tm_TIdleOne: good boy20:12
IdleOneFuchs: you should also20:13
FuchsIdleOne: it would be a bit many hats to wear then  (loco op, ubuntuusers GC, IRCC) so I'd only do it if you desperately need more20:13
Piciundstandable20:14
* AlanBell nudges Myrtti a bit20:14
Myrttino20:14
IdleOnecmon Myrtti :)20:14
Fuchsaw :(  Myrtti is awesome20:14
* IdleOne nudges Flannel 20:14
IdleOneFuchs: very understandable20:15
FlannelSounds like we should've had this goad-people meeting earlier to the deadline, if our selection process is "whoever is here and breathing"20:16
FlannelIdleOne: If I accept your nomination, does that make six or five?20:16
AlanBellFlannel: yeah, we did, last week20:16
IdleOnenot trying to goad you sir, just think you would be good for the position.20:16
AlanBellthis is a followup goad20:16
IdleOneFlannel: I believe it would be 520:16
FlannelAlanBell: Ah, well, I missed it.  Was there an email?  "Come show up! Be volunteered!"20:17
PiciLets stop goading people, its their own decision to nominate themselves.20:17
FlannelIdleOne: I will accept your nomination, but only if that makes six people.  So if that was only five, you'll need to find one more :)20:17
IdleOneI'm assuming AlanBell is keeping track20:17
PiciAfter all, this is a 2 year commitment.20:17
FlannelIdleOne: Think of it as a matching contribution :)20:17
IdleOnewell, it seems we can't shame anyone else now :(20:18
AlanBellso far I see Pici Tm_T AlanBell IdleOne Flannel20:18
IdleOneFlannel: Please confirm yourself so I don't feel like I forced you into accepting20:19
IdleOne*the nomination20:19
FlannelI still feel that we should seek out one or two more.  It's not much of a confirmation/vote if barely have the minimum number.20:23
FlannelAlanBell: What are the requirements for a person serving?20:23
Tm_Tbe ubuntu member20:24
FuchsFlannel: ubuntu IRC membership, being dedicated to IRC, having a bit or IRC knowledge, listet all at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/IrcCouncil20:24
Fuchs(under IRC Council Charter, 4th point)20:24
AlanBellFlannel: yeah, basically Ubuntu Membership and wanting to do it really20:26
AlanBellnominations are open to the end of November, so still a few hours left :)20:27
Flannelright, operator status not required.20:27
AlanBellhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-irc/2013-November/001623.html set out the dates20:27
AlanBellFlannel: nope, not required to be an Op20:27
FlannelSo, with this window, let me officially state this then: I will only accept nomination if we find at least one more (hopefully more!) additional people who accept nomination.20:29
Tm_Twould be good to have non-ops in council too infact20:30
FlannelNot that I wish to be difficult, just that I wish for a vote that's more meaningful than "vote for five of these five people!" when it comes time for that.20:30
AlanBellFlannel: yeah, I am keen on there being a vote too20:30
Fuchsso basically you just need to find one who nobody will vote for anyway, then take Flannel ;)20:31
FlannelLets have everyone take a homework assignment then, over the next N hours (how many? what timezone?), talk to folks about the IRCC, what it does, why it's important, and see if they're interested.20:31
AlanBellso I didn't specify a timezone, we normally use UTC, but it isn't a particularly hard deadline, we said "November" and I would be fine with that meaning that we send the list to the CC at an unspecified time on Monday with all nominations to that point20:34
PiciSounds fine to me20:35
AlanBellthe IRCC will prepare an email with the names, links to wiki pages and launchpad pages and any comments we may have about the nominations20:35
IdleOneDo I need to make a special page for this?20:36
IdleOnewiki page that is20:36
FlannelIdleOne: At least a section.20:36
IdleOnelet me see if I remember my wiki all-in-one password20:36
FlannelIdleOne: I think the wiki uses launchpad now.20:37
AlanBellno need for a special page or section, just maybe take a look over the existing stuff and update if required20:37
AlanBellmaybe add a note saying you are nominating yourself for the IRCC20:38
PiciAnd testimonials, if you like.20:38
IdleOnewill do20:40
AlanBellso, thanks very much all for attending this meeting, and thanks to those who have nominated themselves, lets close this for now, further nominations will continue to be accepted, just let a member of the current IRCC know you want to put yourself forward by email or IRC or carrier pigeon20:42
IdleOneThank you.20:43
AlanBellat some point on Monday the nominations we know about at that time will be passed on to the CC - we won't announce the time of that in advance, so no last second nominations will work :)20:43
