Any ideas for future hangouts? 03:10:11 i'd like to make that a regular thing, personally 03:10:20 it's nice to see everyone :) 03:10:22 How regular, what topic? 03:10:28 Every month? 03:10:31 Every other month? 03:10:46 i might leave that up to annegentle :) 03:10:59 But...what would be your preference? 03:11:06 summerlong, can hangout will be made in that time when everybody able to attend irrespective of different time zone? 03:11:16 monthly would be excessive, i think, if we consider that we're meeting weekly 03:11:39 Perhaps every other month, and yes, chandankumar, the timing is tricky. 03:11:41 unless we do it monthly on an alternating time, so we catch the TZs 03:11:48 like the irc meeting 03:11:49 We in australia were over the moon that it was in daylight. 03:11:57 we could do a hangout in lieu of office hours 03:12:07 that will work :) 03:12:10 we're not doing office hours.... 03:12:12 i was kicking myself that i was in the US ;) 03:12:17 yeah, that's what i mean 03:12:26 What would you want for a topic? 03:12:30 Current issues? 03:12:32 can the office hours, do a monthly hangout instead, alternate timezomes 03:12:49 it wouldn't be hard to have a rolling agenda 03:13:00 we could use the wiki for it, just like we do for IRC meetings 03:13:00 You mean, can the meeting every month? 03:13:26 i'll add this to the list of things to chat to anne about, i think 03:13:31 and come up with a reasonable proposal 03:13:42 do you have any strong preferences? 03:13:52 Could you please do the chat on the list, so all of us can have input? 03:14:05 ok, i'll start the convo there 03:14:11 Switching out one meeting a month for a visual sounds good. 03:14:11 that'll give everyone a chance to have input 03:14:18 yeah, that could work 03:14:21 appreciate it. 03:14:35 np 03:14:46 #action loq_mac to start email discussion around continuing the hangout 03:14:56 #topic Educating devs 03:14:57 Nick Chase to help with onboarding doc contribs. If you have anyone contact you, can direct to him if you'd like. 03:14:59 Anne to write blog post describing titles and priorities, and will also follow up with HP Cloud's Spector for a podcast/screencast 03:15:07 That was just from the last meeting. 03:15:16 Was there anything else we needed to discuss? 03:15:40 where does anne blog? 03:15:48 i'm progressing the docs team leads thing with my guys 03:15:50 on the doc wiki 03:15:52 * brucer needs link 03:15:57 ok 03:16:11 nice, loq_mac 03:16:15 brucer: http://www.openstack.org/blog/ 03:16:26 they're coming around, slowly ;) 03:16:31 ta Lana, just got it 03:16:38 Yes, devs are always just a tad, er, something. 03:16:42 i'm getting them when they're nicely jet lagged, so their resistance is low ;) 03:16:49 Exactly, nice work :) 03:16:59 Ok, and on to the next. 03:17:00 *grin* 03:17:01 #topic Office hours 03:17:02 Now cancelled, per US meeting, now that there are weekly meetings. 03:17:08 +1 03:17:21 It was decidedin the last meeting. Yes, me too, +1. 03:17:45 brucer, annegentle was holding office meetings with low attendance. 03:17:52 With the new weekly meetings, 03:17:59 it was decided to forego them. 03:18:14 Not much else to say, really. 03:18:23 I never attended, wrong time. 03:18:32 #topic Doc Boot Camp 03:18:34 Any preferences for times? Should it be twice-yearly? Once yearly? 03:18:35 Would Feb be too soon after the summit? Could anyone on this side go at that time? 03:18:37 Any wishes for session topics? 03:19:26 Ok, big discussion there. 03:19:28 ok, so, i'd really like to make it 03:19:35 Would it be in US again? 03:19:42 Probably, most people are there. 03:19:46 because i'd like to be able to do a docs camp in aus this year 03:19:53 possibly coordinated with pycon 03:20:03 summerlong, can i attend the bootcamp? 03:20:09 but my boss wants me to have gone to one before i can run one 03:20:16 loq_mac: when's pycon? 03:20:22 august, IIRC 03:20:23 chandankumar: sure 03:20:23 in brisbane 03:20:30 That's your manager's decision, chandankumar, but everyone is invited! 03:20:34 chandankumar: sometimes we get funding from the Foundation too 03:20:39 YES 03:20:48 :) 03:20:56 summerlong, :) 03:21:01 Of course, I'd love it to be in AUS! 03:21:03 loq_mac: makes sense to go to one before hosting :) but they will change over time with the team makeup and so on 03:21:24 loq_mac: for example I think the last one had a mix of real beginners and doc pros 03:21:29 http://2014.pycon-au.org/ 03:21:30 loq_mac: and I could send out the feedback from the last one 03:21:31 loq_mac: you helped run linuxconf, isnt that good enough? 03:21:43 brucer: very different event ;) 03:21:56 Can't have too many social events, hey loq_mac?! 03:21:56 annegentle: yes, i think it needs a lot more thought yet 03:22:00 no -is all herding cats 03:22:01 of course not! 03:22:20 For me, Feb would be too soon, regardless of location. 03:22:43 We'd just be starting to implement summit decisions. 03:23:05 yeah 03:23:08 brucer: +1 03:23:14 march would probably be better for me too 03:23:40 kk, on to the next. 03:23:42 #topic Operations Guide workflow 03:23:43 Anne is still in discussion with the O'Reilly folk, to figure out timing and process. 03:23:45 Graeme Gillies has since volunteered to do the RHEL architecture. 03:23:46 Might or might not be a 2-day sprint; Gillies will probably work online. 03:23:48 Anything to talk about here? 03:23:58 i'm cool 03:24:27 #topic Doc tools updates 03:24:28 Info from the last meeting: 03:24:30 The Clouddocs-maven-plugin is now in Stackforge. 03:24:31 #link http://git.openstack.org/cgit/stackforge/clouddocs-maven-plugin/ 03:24:33 Enables all openstack contributors to work on the maven plugin that builds our HTML and PDF and api-ref output 03:24:34 Also, Rackspace just got 4 interns through the GNOME Outreach Program. So at least one more person helping with OpenStack upstream. In particular, helping Miranda Zhang will be helping Diane with the API docs. 03:24:36 #link https://wiki.gnome.org/OutreachProgramForWomen/2013/DecemberMarch#Accepted_Participants 03:24:37 And, Anne is working through doc templates for incubating projects. 03:24:39 Anything else on doc tools? 03:24:50 i'm still hassling michael davies on that 03:25:09 loq_mac: hehehe 03:25:12 On the script you talked about in the hangout? 03:25:20 summerlong: we did fix two build bugs that showed up today 03:25:29 ah, no, this is the guy who thought someone else was doing it 03:25:33 so he backed off 03:25:34 summerlong, i have started working on my blueprint but delayed due to bad health. 03:25:42 Oh, right. 03:25:48 for askbot integration 03:26:07 chandankumar: looking forward to seeing the result 03:26:44 oookkkkk, that was it for doc tools? 03:27:00 that's all i have 03:27:21 * summerlong wishes she knew more about doc tools 03:27:32 #topic Open discussion 03:27:33 Wishes?
