Initial Meeting
mikeal opened this issue · 34 comments
Let's figure out a time for this :)
That Doodle site seems pretty nifty. We could also just say, "Who can't do Weds 11a?" (This was the best consensus from the last Doodle we did)
Danese clearly can't but it sounds like she's busy the whole week.
My availability is:
Weekdays 10am to 4pm (CST), except:
- Tuesday 10am to 10:30am
- Thursday 10am to 10:30am
Weekends open.
I've added them all to the team that runs this repo and many already participated in a doodle that went out before this repo went up, @dshaw can you paste the link to that doodle here?
@mikeal That wasn't the doodle that I tried to send yesterday was it? @cianomaidin said that he pinged you about that yesterday.
I thought there was already one up that dshaw did like last week?
Whatever, let's just start a new one and dump the link in here :)
@mkdolan do the bylaws already account for a board representative elected by the individual membership? if not can we do this without altering the bylaws which is quite difficult as I understand it?
Repo to work out the system for individual membership in the foundation.
@mikeal can you clarify what this is all about?

If the link were in here then the general public would be able to use it, wouldn't they?
http://doodle.com/ktv4ypvy8g6ky4k9 @Burstaholic and @Morgul are already on this list.
I mentioned on the call yesterday this requires a bylaws change. I had setup the TSC Chair as the voice of the community, but an individual membership board seat would be a different Board seat that we didn’t factor in. It may not be that disruptive of a change, but let me do a litmus test with the team that’s been working on the drafts with us.

@rvagg this grew out of the last advisory board meeting.
Basically, we have a placeholder for "individual members" signing up to be part of the foundation similar to what the Linux Foundation does. We hadn't figured out exactly how to administer that and what the benefits would be yet so I setup this repo to do it.
@Danese recommends that we have a board seat elected by the individual membership to represent the wider community (more than just the TSC as the TSC already has a seat).
@mkdolan can the board invite this person to sit on the board in a non-voting capacity in the interim? It'll be a while before we get members signed up and do an election and if it's a few months until all this shakes out we may want to wait on this change in case there are any other small adjustments the board wants to make to the bylaws.

@Morgul Doodle learner driver. Times added. Let me know how that looks to you. Feel free to give me more advice on Doodle.
Is there a timezone set on these? I noticed that even after I changed my timezone none of the times shifted so I'm wondering if they are floating times or something.
The help says that there should be an option but I think the help is out-of-date as there's no option that I could see when setting it up: http://support.doodle.com/customer/portal/articles/645367
My Doodle profile has my timezone set at MST Arizona which is what I assume it was set at.
Turns out that you have to enable timezones when you first create a Doodle and can't add it afterwards. I've created a new one and updated the link above. Here it is again: https://doodle.com/gt2aickp7znysyam
@Morgul - my apologies - I had to delete the other Doodle. New link above. Timezone enabled.
So, looks like Tuesday morning or Wednesday noon?
Wednesday is slightly better for Chris (Morgul) and I because we have a short internal meeting Tuesday that is supposed to end at 10, but it's always possible to run over a few minutes (not many though, due to room scheduling).
@Burstaholic you're on Mountain Time right? So Wednesday noon is 2pm ET? Shall I close the Doodle with that day/time?
We're CST, so 1pm EST.
@guyellis With that correction, 12p CST/1p EST seems good to me!
I closed the poll and picked that time. Let me know if I got it right. I'm in AZ (no daylight savings) and couldn't work out if the calendar understood that AZ is currently on PT and not MT as the calendar seemed to indicate.
Calendar meeting invites sent to @Burstaholic @Morgul @mikeal @cianomadin
Who else needs one?
Raises hand.
