pleia2glad to hear17:17
wxlapplications have been strong, too17:17
popeyThe thing we do slip up on sometimes is 1) adding people to ~ubuntumembers and 2) telling the news team17:17
popey1) is somewhat more critical than 2)17:17
wxl"somewhat" XD17:18
popeyI think we just need to nail down who chairs each meeting and they have the responsibility of doing the admin afterwards17:18
pleia2people really do like seeing their name in the newsletter when they become a member17:18
elachecheYeah popey.. Sometimes I see get email notification about 1) and don't know who did that17:18
wxlperhaps we should work out a rotation, popey ?17:18
mhall119popey: show is the chair currently selected, just whomever is there?17:18
elachecheI mean what board did it17:18
popeywxl: yeah, I'd be up for that17:18
popeymhall119: yeah, people have basically just put their hand up for it17:18
popeywe haven't forced anyone to chair17:19
popey 17:19
popey 17:19
popeyyet17:19
mhall119rotating is a good idea, people would know ahead of time when it's their turn17:19
popeybe good to have rotation, I agree wxl17:19
popeythey can be responsible for the reminder email too.17:19
wxlok let's see if we can set something up by email17:19
wxlyes!17:19
popeywe could add the chair to the wiki so everyone knows17:19
wxlyeah that's a great idea17:19
popeyok, I'll take an action to do that17:20
wxlthank you17:20
popeynp17:20
wxlmaybe we should include an unlinked wiki page that documents what needs to be done17:20
wxlfor us noobs :)17:20
mhall119do we have any set goals for the number of new members in the next cycle, and if not what do you think about setting such a goal?17:21
elachecheKilos, we started with CC :)17:21
Kilossorry for being late all17:21
PabloRubianesI m late too17:22
wxlmhall119: i think it may be hard within the council to actually affect progress towards that goal, but it's a great idea. might encourage us to do some outreach and mentor people to be mentors to the people in their community17:22
cprofittno problem Kilos and PabloRubianes we know that volunteers and international time zones do not always make it easy to make meetings.17:22
elachechemhall119, we never discussed to set a members number as a goal..17:22
popeyYeah, seems an odd thing to do.17:22
cprofittwxl: we need to keep goals attainable17:22
popeyI mean, I can see why we might as a _project_ do that17:23
wxl+1 popey17:23
popeyand we would obviously help participate in that17:23
elachecheWe have some propostitions about 2 UOS session17:23
mhall119wxl: it would be just on the membership boards to reach those goals either, but a goal would give us somethign to take to other project teams17:23
cprofittattaining a number of new members is not something that should be made a goal.17:23
popeyit could be abused by us17:23
popeywe would go round looking for any flotsam and jetsam to keep our numbers17:23
wxltrue17:23
cprofitta better goal would be to set goals with regards to making people aware of membership and all the mechanisms to obtain it17:23
popeySounds like the CC should have that goal :)17:24
mhall119it could be, but it could also help us give membership more focus as a whole, across the Ubuntu project17:24
wxland i think we've been working on that cprofitt17:24
cprofittwxl: that is measurable and attainable17:24
elachechemhall119, popey, belkins suggested 2 sessions during the next UOS → The first one is a "meet and greet" session where we introduce ourselves and answer questions that may come up (and also requests for feedback on their wiki pages, ect).  I don't care if this session is done on IRC only.  It might be the best idea for everyone.17:24
elachecheThe second and final idea is do another session like in the last UOS where we discussed ideas on how to increase Membership within.17:24
wxlfor example, belkinsa and i worked together to brainstorm ideas that lead to changes to the membership wiki about social capital benefits of membership https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership#The_Benefits17:24
PabloRubianesas we are getting fewer candidates, having a goal is not gonna fix that17:24
wxlbased on feedback we got from contributors that didn't feel motivated to get their membership17:25
mhall119elacheche: I like that idea17:25
cprofittwxl good stuff...17:25
elachecheWe will fix the Ubuntu Members map as well.. It's outdated.. I promised to work on it asap17:25
cprofittperhaps setting a goal of producing 'x' number of promotional items - such as creating a Youtube video about membership or something else that reaches out to Ubuntu users who are not members.17:26
cprofittthose I think are excellent goals and are attainable and measurable.17:26
wxlcprofitt: again that sounds more like something that would make a nice project, though, rather than a goal, as popey said17:26
cprofittelacheche: the sessions at UOS would be valuable too.17:26
cprofittthe goal would be to produce 'x' resources17:27
* elacheche nods17:27
mhall119cprofitt: that sounds more like a work item, not a goal17:27
cprofittthe Youtube was an example of a specific item that would be counted towards reaching the goal.17:27
wxlthanks for putting my idea into works, mhall11917:27
wxls/idea/thought/17:27
popeyAre there any goals else where in the project? Number of MOTU developers? Number of translators?17:27
cprofittI do not want to derail this discussion on goals...17:27
popeyWould seem a bit lop-sided to aim for more members, but not look at the other areas too.17:27
cprofitthttp://www.hr.virginia.edu/uploads/documents/media/Writing_SMART_Goals.pdf17:28
mhall119popey: agreed, I'd like to set more goals across all of those metrics17:28
cprofitta good resrouce for goals.17:28
popeymhall119: set that as a goal for you, "[mhall119] More goals"17:28
mhall119ok, so it sounds like I should bring this up within the CC first, and then break it down to sub-teams17:28
wxlHHAHAHAH17:28
popey+117:28
wxlseriously, though, i think that would be wise17:28
* cprofitt nods17:29
cprofittI agree.17:29
wxli have no reservations about setting goals, but as cprofitt said they need to be both measurable and attainable17:29
mhall119ok, that's all I have for the membership boards17:31
mhall119pleia2: cprofitt czajkowski anything else?17:31
cprofittJust remind everyone about the upcoming election for the CC17:31
pleia2all good17:31
pleia2thanks for coming :)17:31
popey\o/17:31
elachecheo/17:31
Kiloso/17:32
cprofittWe need people to nominate qualified people to take positions on the CC17:32
mhall119thanks everyone17:32

yofelsure, most of us will try to be there if possible17:32

popeyuh, that's fun, cc and lc expiring together17:33
PabloRubianeswxl: no, but as we are here I let them know :P17:33
popeyI'd argue if jose and sergio are up for it, extend them for ~3 months so it doesn't overlap with cc election17:33
cprofittPabloRubianes: thanks for letting us know17:33
mhall119thanks PabloRubianes17:33
wxli get the feeling jose is done popey17:34
popey:(17:34
wxland i dont' hear/see from sergio much at all17:34
joseunfortunately, I'm not going to reapply17:34
wxlpopey: just because he's busy with school, you know?17:34
joseand Sergio is now AWOL17:34
wxloh there he is, he can speak for himself :)17:34
josehehe :)17:34
mhall119ok, we'll put out a call for nominations17:34
popeyok17:34
josealso, is it possible to get it back to 6 members?17:34
josewe got it up to 7 because there were too many people away17:35
josebut I think things are way more stable now17:35
pleia2that makes sense17:35
pleia2we can always bump it up again if there's a problem17:35
PabloRubianes+1 on 6 members17:35
josewxl?17:36
mhall119pleia2: cprofitt: who wants to put out the call for LC nominations?17:36

Kilosone question peeps17:37

Kilos?17:38
mhall119Kilos: ?17:38
Kilosi mean does expiring meean they gone or will some reapply17:39
mhall119Kilos: you'd have to ask us individually17:39
Kilosah17:39
popeyThey have to be nominated (after being asked if they want to stand again)17:39
wxlwould it be a conflict if i joined the cc while still remaining on a subboard?17:40
popeyNo17:40
popeyAt one point in the past I was on the LoCo Council, Membership Board and CC at the same time ;)17:40
josewhat do you mean by a subboard?17:40
wxlyeah well that's kind of how it would be for me popey :)17:40
wxljose: MB, LC17:40
popeythe only advice I'd say is don't overcommit and burn out17:40
* wxl nods17:40
wxlwell, as always, thanks CC17:41
wxland thanks to all of you wonderful MB folks as well17:41
