*** openstack changes topic to "Annual Report (Meeting topic: UC)"13:33
spotzWas everyone able to get intto the doc?13:33
melsakhawyI was able to13:34
jayahni was13:34
studarusyes, thank you13:34
*** jamesmcarthur has quit IRC13:34
spotzGood, so we've been asked to send a UC update to aprice by 1/10. While last years is combined with the TC's update I think it's pretty clear whiicih sections were UC vs TC and I think it's allways easier too write something with a reeference:)13:36
spotzSo the question is what do we want to update the Board and Community on iin regards to what we've done this year13:38
studaruswe reviewed all the SIGs/Working Groups13:39
melsakhawyThe review of the UC goals and the Ambassador program  are also worth mentioning13:40
studarusI added both to the doc as notes to be elaborated13:42
spotzOk so we reviewed and validated those, the SiGss did result in some updates. Did we  get any new Ambassadors? I don't think we're iinvolved in the process if there were new onees13:43
spotzOPS meetups havee been going well so wee can mention them as well though we don't usually havee any attendance at them13:45
studaruswell, the proposal was to expand the Ambassador program to include people to do outreach13:45
studarusthe foundation wants to keep Ambassadors as just someone that supports user groups13:45
studarusso there was a disconnect13:45
spotzI think it's valid to put that in the report, whether it changes anything going forwards or not. I do some Outreach type sttuff at Grace Hopper but it's not OSF supported13:48
studaruswe did have success getting easier approval for new user groups13:48
spotzOk, and the meetup account is workiing to help with thtat?13:49
spotzstudarus: do you want to take a first pass on the ambassador and user group seections?13:50
studarusyeah, I entered them in as place holders and will expand13:50
spotzGreat thanks13:51
*** jamesmcarthur has joined #openstack-uc13:53
spotzAnyone havee anything else on the report for now? We need to decided what our holiday schedule for meetings will be so that miight affect our deadline on this13:53
melsakhawyI can't think of anything else13:54
jayahni don't have anything to add13:55
spotz#topic Election13:55
*** openstack changes topic to "Election (Meeting topic: UC)"13:55
*** KeithMnemonic has joined #openstack-uc13:58
spotzWe wiill need to begin the electioon process in Januaery and last week I brought up the question again if we wanted to reduce the size of the UC to 3. My points for doiing it this cycle if we decide to reduce numbers doing it in Spring allows for thte eeleectiion of 1 newe meember vs noo election aand if neeeded melsakhawy could move att least temporarily if not permaeently to Chair so there would be continuiity of lead13:58
spotzership.13:58
spotzsorry for typos that was bad:(13:59
studarusthe idea being it will be easier to find people to serve with a smaller committee14:00
melsakhawyyeah agreed14:01
jayahnagreed14:01
spotzCorrect, and we're really just trying to get everyone's viewpoint on this14:01
melsakhawyI think it's a good proposal , only catch is if we get many candidates in Feb elections , do we up the chairs again ?14:02
spotzIf we don't do it this go round and it's decided by future UCs I still think Spring is best and hopefully chair and co-chairr arre on different election cyclces14:02
spotzmelsakhawy: Frrom my memory we aalways ask, but generally if someone who served before is still on the UC they have remained. IE mrhilllman became chaiir my first electioon and remained untill he didn't run. VW went frm co-chair to chair14:04
melsakhawy*sorry maybe I used wrong terms , I mean if we get many candidates in Feb , do we increase the size of UC back to 5 ?14:04
spotzI think we can still utilize a chair and a co-chair even with 3 as only 2 people would be needed foor quorum and the co runs meetings when tthe chair isn't about14:05
spotzI think we would need to discuss and do it thte next cycle. While this discussioon is a result of the last electioon it's alsoo based on community participatioon.14:06
studarusif the committee wants to increase the size back up to 5 in the future, there wouldn't be anything preventing them from doing it14:07
spotzI think studarus's point on outreach from ambassadors is totally valid as the user community hasn't shrunk just the numbers of people participating in things if that maskes sense?14:07
melsakhawytrue14:07
spotzAccording to OSF the number of people deploying has increased, but they're not part of the community14:08
spotzAnd they're not AUC and not valid from any other conttribution to run if thtey didn't do tthe survey14:09
spotz20 minute warning FYI14:11
jayahnwhat is the exact point we are discussing about now? necessary (valid reason) for outreach? number of committee?14:12
jayahni am a bit lost.14:12
melsakhawyI agree about the revamp to the Ambassador program,14:12
jayahnokay ambassador program revamp.14:12
spotzjayahn: Well no the reduced pool of people to run for UC. But the point that we have more deployments butt less active community members (outreach) was a point14:13
melsakhawywhat to do we need to do to get the Ambassador program revamp approved ?14:15
studaruswe would need to convince the foundation of the change14:16
spotzOSF support for one, while they have Developer Advocates except forr China there is noo COmmunity Manager any more14:16
studarusor create a new program focused on outreach and leave the Ambassador to just be user group support14:16
jayahnso foundation does not want to change the current one?14:16
studarusthey want to keep the Ambassador program just for user group support14:16
melsakhawywe could draft a proposal of a new program in this case14:17
studarusI was thinking we revamp it to be like the CNCF Ambassador program where it is more general advocacy and building interest through talks, presentations, etc14:17
studarusI'd recommend talking to Alison Price before you go too far down a route just to make sure she is aboard14:18
melsakhawysounds good , I can take that on14:18
jayahni do agree on that.. it will be need to be like CNCF ambassador program.14:18
studarusbut I would be in favor of some sort of such program14:19
jayahnthat will means compeltely change the scope / definition of ambassodor14:19
spotzNow keeep in mind we changed the mentooring to be like Kubernetes and it died14:19
studarusI think you leave the Ambassador program alone and start something new14:20
studarushow/why did it die?14:20
spotzWhile we had mentors and people wanting to be mentored no one ever actually posted or communicated14:22
spotzMaybe the lack of one on one, the hope being group mentoring would result in self mentoring14:22
jayahnmy personal experience is that.. how cncf / lf treats user community vs. how osf treats user community is very different. cncf/lf has its own organization branch and do things through that, user group is not an entity they directly take care of.14:22
jayahnosf is differnt. user groups are an important entity in osf.14:23
spotz#action melsakhawy talking to OSF about Outreach14:23
spotzOk we're down to 7 minutes, keep going or discuss holiday schedule at 2 minute mark>14:24
jayahndiscuss holiday schedule first. i assume.14:24
