mrhillsman#topic UC Election14:05
mrhillsmanso this week marks official candidacy period14:05
mrhillsmanthis was the cycle you got elected in right zioproto ?14:05
mrhillsmanand you are not running again14:06
apriceJimmy is here - just having trouble with IRC right now14:06
zioprotocorrect, it was 1 year ago14:06
mrhillsmanah ok14:06
apricehe does have a question that I would like to relay if it's a good time re: the election14:06
mrhillsmanyep14:06
apricebased on the new approved AUC criteria, he needs a way to collect Active Women of OpenStack members (spotz), ops mid cycle session moderators and SIG members nominated by SIG leaders and active diversity WG members (spotz)14:07
apricewhat is the best way to collect these folks?14:08
*** VW_ has joined #openstack-uc14:08

VW_hazzah - I'm in!14:08
jamesmcarthur_Me too!14:08
VW_gotta wait two weeks to get the real nick back, though :)14:08
mrhillsmanwelcome VW_ glad you got it resolved14:08
*** spotz has joined #openstack-uc14:08
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o spotz14:08
mrhillsmanah ok14:08
mrhillsmanhey spotz14:08
mrhillsmanso Amy can answer the WoO which I assume was her providing them14:09
mrhillsmanwe can ask the operators for list tomorrow in their meeting; provide heads up via email today?14:09
mrhillsmanspotz re diversity wg folks as well14:09
spotzYeah!!!!14:10
jamesmcarthur_We just need Tokyo, basically14:10
jamesmcarthur_Although... I understand they just had another Ops Meetup in Tokyo this last week.14:10
jamesmcarthur_Did y'all know about that?14:10
mrhillsmanah ok14:10
mrhillsmandid not know14:10
zioprotoI did not know either14:10
jamesmcarthur_I'm not sure the Ops Meetup team knew either14:10
mrhillsmanshintaro probably has all that info for both14:10
mrhillsmanit's good to see the initiative just need to connect the dots14:10
jamesmcarthur_Yes, it was tied to the OpenStack Day in Tokyo14:11
jamesmcarthur_But yeah, that's the type of thing where it would bee good to have coordination w/ the UC.14:11
mrhillsmanre SIGs i can put a thread out on the SIG ML14:12
jamesmcarthur_So... this should be something that should be tracked.14:12
spotzI can do WoO and Diversity14:12
mrhillsmanmaybe ashlee could check with openstack/infra days folks?14:12
jamesmcarthur_The way we manage participation in other groups is typically IRC logs or some other traceable participation.14:13
mrhillsmanif she is coordinating with them, or denise, not sure who :)14:13
mrhillsmanright14:13
jamesmcarthur_I can get the Days info. It's fine.14:13
jamesmcarthur_User Survey and OpenStack Days organizers are covered.14:13
mrhillsmanso i did some thinking about that earlier today and will bring it up but can wait (traceability)14:14
jamesmcarthur_I can also check the Diversity WG and WOO from IRC logs.14:14
jamesmcarthur_Do we have some measure of "participation"?14:14
mrhillsman#action spotz provide Diversity WG and WoO eligible AUCs14:14
mrhillsman#action mrhillsman start thread on SIG ML for eligible AUCs14:14
mrhillsmani think for Diversity/WoO irc logs have the same criteria as other watched channels?14:15
jamesmcarthur_#action jimmy will send a note to Shintaro re: Ops Meetup session leaders14:16
VW_do the SIGs not meet in channels?14:16
mrhillsman#chair VW_ zioproto spotz14:16
openstackCurrent chairs: VW_ mrhillsman spotz zioproto14:16
mrhillsmanVW_ i believe they do but there is a lot of noise, there is not dedicated SIG channel14:17
mrhillsmanso i think the scripts will not be efficient14:17
mrhillsmaniirc14:17
VW_ah - wasn't sure if we could pull based on meeting topics and then count participation14:17
VW_but I see what you are saying14:18
mrhillsmanand not sure if thre is a convention14:18
spotzjamesmcarthur_: I think between the 2 groups it'll be less then 8 people and some already have AUS14:18
spotzAUC even14:18
jamesmcarthur_ok - np14:18
mrhillsmanyeah, in the meeting topics/discussion like startmeeting sig-abc14:18
mrhillsmanit would be cool if we stored logs in elastisearch :)14:19
mrhillsmanbut anyways, idk, i think today asking is safest bet14:20
mrhillsmananything else on the election?14:20
mrhillsmanoh i have one14:20
VW_nope - I'm good14:20
spotzWell like jillr she's helping to run the mentoring program but hasn't attended a ton of meetings14:20
mrhillsmanaprice jamesmcarthur_ the nominations14:20
spotzWe should email out noms are open and VW should resend:)14:21
mrhillsmandoes the tc like the individual board elections have a page posting image and letter of candidates?14:21
mrhillsmanin previous elections we just post a link to the email a candidate sends14:21
mrhillsmanif so, is it too late to do that?14:22
jamesmcarthur_No, we don't have a page for TC nominations. It's all handled via the MLs14:22
VW_yeah - sorry about that. was getting my pre-travel list done and jumped the gun14:22
mrhillsmanif it is, i think it would be good if we could attach elections to profiles or however the individual board elections are done14:22
mrhillsmanhaha, no worries VW_14:23
mrhillsmanfor the next go round but that is all i have14:23
jamesmcarthur_The way the board elections work is using an entirely separate voting tool.14:23
mrhillsmanah ok14:23
jamesmcarthur_If we want to do something like that for UC, we can discuss options, but won't be something we can get out for this election.14:24
mrhillsman++14:24
spotzYeah let's just hit the dates for this one!14:24
spotzWe need atleast 70 more words on our superuser article by the way14:24
mrhillsman#topic Super User Article14:24
apricespotz: i can take a look at the Superuser article today and will work with nicole on getting it published14:25
apriceill take that action :)14:25
mrhillsmancool14:25
spotzaprice thanks, we got a few more words when Leong updated the criteria:)14:25
mrhillsman#action aprice work with spotz and nicole on getting superuser article published14:25
mrhillsmananything else here?14:26
apricenot from me14:26
mrhillsman#topic Bi-monthly Meetings14:26
spotzI'm good14:26
mrhillsmanso, i think we discussed and everyone is aware, but question is which days?14:26
mrhillsmanimho which i did not provide because i did not want it to be taken the wrong way, i am not sure less meetings will equate to more activity14:27
mrhillsmanhowever, i know there are a lot of meetings already14:27
apricedo you think that a different meeting medium would help?14:28
mrhillsmanthis is also why i appreciate jamesmcarthur_ and lsell adding uc workload out there14:28
apricelike - do you think that a phone / zoom meeting twice a month would help?14:28
mrhillsmani know it can be dauting14:28
mrhillsmandaunting14:28
mrhillsmanyour question aprice is very close to what i wanted to bring up re traceability or what jimmy was referencing14:29
VW_yeah - I am torn too mrhillsman14:29
spotzI think the revolving time while necessary is confusing:(14:29
apriceah yeah14:29
mrhillsmani am not sure irc is easiest for uc constituents14:29
mrhillsmanagreed spotz14:29
VW_although, I like the idea of having a "face to face" at some frequency on zoom, etc14:29
mrhillsmanas a user, just imo, i like shiny looking things, big buttons, clear calls to action14:30
zioprotoDo we have data on how much the meetings log are read ?14:30
zioprotoIRC meetings are nice because the community can follow with the logs14:30
mrhillsmannot sure that is something we can measure14:30
zioprotobut if no one reads the logs, then it is useless to have IRC meeting. It is much better to have videoconferences :)14:30
VW_I think we confused ourselves a little when we tried to move from the A/B alternating pattern to the even/odd14:30
spotzYou could analyze website logs to see hits but that won't tell you if they did more then reach the page14:31
zioprotoVW_: +114:31
aprice+114:31
mrhillsmani like the idea of recorded video/audio14:31
apriceI wonder if it's even just worth putting out to the ML to see what folks want?14:31
mrhillsman^14:31
VW_that could work14:31
apriceboth the OPs and UC ML....some of them may not even be aware of these meetings and what theyre for14:31
VW_I'm happy to still meet weekly, and don't mind different mediums14:31
apricecould be a good awareness piece14:32
mrhillsmani'm totally ok with the twice a month14:32
spotzalso sigs list14:32
mrhillsman++14:33
mrhillsmanwhat concerns hit me are goals, pace of completing them, visibility of activity14:34
mrhillsmanand getting more folks involved14:34
VW_very trure14:34
VW_true even14:34
mrhillsmanmaybe with just two uc meetings we also can open up time to meet with others14:34
VW_perhaps14:35
VW_i did like the idea of some regular meeting with the TC14:35
mrhillsmanso should we vote?14:35
mrhillsmanor i think leong mentioned this to me14:35
mrhillsmanwait until after election14:35
VW_I'd prefer to wait till after14:36
mrhillsmanwhich i am in agreement with but either way is ok14:36
VW_I don't want to make decisions for the group that I may not be in14:36
spotzI think we should wait but I really like te joint meeting idead and opening part of the session to the floor14:36
mrhillsman++14:36
mrhillsmani'm going to setup some email automation as i think communicating more will help too14:37
spotzAnd we're bad about ability and completion. I think we need to be better about letting folks know about availability14:37
mrhillsmanso i got a tool for that over the weekend since sending an email late sunday night may not be the best :)14:37
spotzavailability... I can't type for some reason14:37
spotzcron?:)14:37
mrhillsmani'm a user at heart hehe14:38
mrhillsmanbuttons and shiny things - mail client14:38
mrhillsmanit's a service so even if i am not connected it will send off email - polymail14:39
mrhillsmani think there are other options but i just picked one to get started until i find something better14:39
mrhillsman#action mrhillsman start uc thread for canned email messages to send14:39
VW_hey folks, I hate to do this after all the talk about meetings, but I have to hit the road. I have an 8:30 PDT class I have to attend and need to get to the office with some lead time14:40
VW_will see you all next week?14:40
mrhillsman++14:40
mrhillsmanyep14:40
VW_cool14:40
spotzSeeya vw14:40
mrhillsman1800UTC :)14:40
VW_I'll resend my nomination as soon as the official reminder goes out14:41
VW_Catch you all later14:41
*** VW_ has quit IRC14:41
apricespeaking of the reminder, are the election officials sending those out?14:41
mrhillsmanttyl14:41
mrhillsmani believe so aprice14:42
apriceawesome14:42
mrhillsmanspotz is our faithful leader there14:42
spotzWe should send out the noms are open mail. But yeah Ed told VW he was early:)14:43
mrhillsmananything else on meeting/election?14:45
spotzNope, have a most likely not UC thing that just came through twitter but it's ptg/opsmeetup/summit14:45
apricespotz: regarding childcare?14:46
spotzyeah14:46
apriceyeah - we are going to respond14:46
mrhillsmancool14:46
mrhillsman#topic Other Business14:46
spotzOk cool, I know we haven't in the past14:46
spotzI don't have any except to ask who wants to announce noms are open:)14:47
apricei thought the election officials were going to announce that?14:47
spotzOk I'll let them know then:)14:47
apricemy only other business is user survey14:48
apricewe are going to be sending out an email this week about earning AUC by taking hte survey14:49
apricethere are only 2 weeks left to complete so after we announce the election is open, I think it would be worth another reminder to the MLs14:49
apricewe havea little over 400 deployments and want to make sure everyone takes it that should14:49
spotzXool14:50
spotzCool14:50
apriceill also be reaching out for volunteers for qualitative analysis support (including the i18n team), but definitely want the UC to be engaged as much as possible14:50
apriceand one other thing....14:50
apriceAnne B from our team is putting together notes from the project teams for the Rocky Release14:51
apricewe wanted to reach out to the UC to see if there were any features that were coming in Rocky that yall were particularly excited about14:51
apriceso maybe before next meeting if you have a chance to ponder it, it would be great to get insight on that next week so we can incorporate into our community release materials14:51
mrhillsmanawesome, did you want us to look at the notes Anne compiles first?14:53
mrhillsmanor just if we already know or find something by next week to mention it14:53
apricesure - she gets back from vacation today and I can see which document she wants to share14:53
mrhillsmani think the latter, was not sure14:53
apricethe latter was what I was thinking, but her notes may help - they're pretty thorough :)14:53
jamesmcarthur_An aside: I also put some notes re: the next User Survey in the PTG list for UC discussion14:54
mrhillsmanoh man, glad you mentioned ptg lol14:54
mrhillsmani need to book flight and get some ink on those etherpads14:54
spotzI'm all set for the PTG:)14:55
