Should propagate through lists soonish 19:19:58 Just came through 19:19:59 #topic User calls 19:21:56 jamesmcarthur any info on this one? 19:22:03 i know we had the meeting last week 19:22:36 not sure if it was part of this or aligned with the thought behind this one but it was good to have 19:23:03 you mean any info on when the next one is? 19:23:51 or could be any info from the one we had 19:23:59 I plan on mentioning the meetup to Chris at the ops meeting in the morning 19:24:00 things uc could help with 19:24:06 follow up 19:24:19 i think that user call was a bit abnormal 19:24:32 hehe 19:24:32 oh? 19:24:50 because he wasnt necessarily looking for information around their openstack deployment 19:24:55 i wanted to see about getting openlab setup as a means for physical resources; i have mentioned before and will put something together this week 19:25:06 i still think it went well, but I think that typically they are more technical. 19:25:17 aprice: what are they looking for? 19:25:22 yeah, that is what i thought the primary goal was, rather than user groups, but that works i think as well depending on the situation 19:25:32 leong: he was more interested in getting a user group set up. 19:25:38 yeah, they range a lot 19:26:09 i would be interested from yall how often you would like to participate? We have a lot of users who would benefit from this kind of interaction, but want to make sure it's manageable 19:26:10 Barclays? right? 19:26:18 leong: yes 19:26:37 thought was a Financial Team? would they be interested? 19:26:53 leong_ i do think that the Financial Team would be a good place to plug them in 19:27:12 are there any online meeting invitations we can provide to him? 19:27:13 personally i want to participate as often as i am allowed because hearing user concerns is what i signed up for and data driven activities always work best for me 19:27:27 the Financial Team have been searching for partners across the globe 19:27:38 he also mentioned the security specialty so i dropped that in the chat but not sure if anyone saw it 19:27:40 Sounds like a good contact then leong_ 19:27:45 currently the work is very focused on PRC... we need voices from other regions 19:28:04 oh, i didnt see that Melvin. im sorry 19:28:23 aprice: any possible to forward the contact for further follow up? 19:28:26 yeah, i thought most of the meetings to date had been in person. is there a plan to do a more collaborative meeting setting? 19:28:26 im interested in participating in calls 19:28:31 yeah, i was off mic for most of it because of a last minute overlap 19:28:43 unfortunately i missed the call last week as i was on business travel 19:28:53 yeah - I can do an email introduction. 19:31:11 aprice I think it worked well with Ashlee mailing with what the call would be on and then asking for availability. Could also be done in the meetings as well I think to see who's available and is interested or has input for that type of user 19:31:18 aprice - https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Security-SIG 19:31:46 perfectly fine with either arrangement 19:31:51 ++ spotz 19:32:11 yeah, i think that's a good idea 19:32:24 what are yalls thoughts on starting with one per month? 19:32:34 that seems like a good pace 19:32:34 Seems doable 19:32:39 if there was a spreadsheet (maybe nda along with it?) that uc member could put their name or checkmark may make it easier? if not, the email worked fine 19:32:47 definitely doable 19:32:58 for me...always have to add that, i forget 19:32:59 doable 19:34:12 cool, anything else here? 19:34:24 one thing i wanted to mention is that sometimes, we may want to only have 1 or 2 folks join so we dont overwhelm them 19:34:49 sometimes if the user is new, having a lot of people on the call is overwhelming and I do want to make sure they understand what the UC is and how to get involved 19:34:59 i can flag that when relevant, but wanted to mention that now 19:35:07 that makes sense 19:35:13 nothing else from me on this topic though 19:35:15 agreed 19:35:16 that makes sense. but it would be good to have a solid recap 19:35:21 +1 19:35:27 for those not on the call 19:35:38 i can work with ashlee on getting a recap from the barclays call drafted 19:35:40 and share this week 19:35:56 ++ 19:36:07 or we can make it an agenda item at the following UC meeting 19:36:11 or both 19:36:51 true 19:37:03 in case the members on the call want to give context, obersvations, etc 19:37:23 ++ 19:37:44 only possible issue is bad timing so an async email generally should work and have slot on meeting always jic 19:37:55 that i could think of 19:37:57 yep 19:38:29 one thing to keep in mind is that these calls are technically under yalls confidentiality agreement which is why a lot of these folks are fine, so we can only cover so much in a public channel 19:38:42 ah ok 19:39:02 And this one wasn't a typcal call but how can I restart a meetup 19:39:49 yeah - i think that one can be discussed publicy 19:39:49 so something to consider for later 19:40:12 aprice probably best we lean on you all for +/- on discussing 19:40:35 ++ 19:40:52 even still if the barclays guy expects that confidentiality or it is expected by default we have to be mindful 19:41:51 no matter how obscure to the context a conversation is i think 19:41:53 anyways 19:42:01 19 minutes left 19:42:03 next topic? 19:42:20 yeah 19:42:30 #topic Calls for open etherpads from forum to pose to Ops meetup 19:42:53 so this would be an email? 19:43:01 the ops meetup folks put out the proposal eitherpad for the venue/sponsor 19:43:03 to openstack-discuss 19:43:14 as soon as they decide, they should put out another for topic ideas 19:43:40 as I thought through it, we should follow on to that with a note to PTLs to place topics there based on unresolved stuff from the forum 19:43:42 i thought vote was done and berlin accepted 19:44:03 They;re just deciding which Berlin location 19:44:25 ok, i see it 19:44:26 I've emailed Erin, Claire and Ashlee to see what is needed to get an eventbrite 19:44:51 so maybe decision will be made tomorrow 19:44:54 spotz that email was forwarded to me. im happy to help and will email you what information we need 19:45:07 aprice cool thanks 19:45:13 it will definitely require venue, so ill look to hear for an update after tomorrow's meeting? 19:45:15 yeah - looks like it's decided, but I was mainly keying off of "The meetups team will be sharing the planning docs for the technical agenda in the next few weeks. So far, there has been interest expressed in having a research track at this meetup alongside the general track. Please let us know ASAP if that is of interest." 19:45:54 when that link goes out, a reply from us encouraging PTLs to help populate it would be timed well in my opinion 19:46:12 could we still put on email, even if just to PTLs, for unresolved stuff from the forum which could be addressed at the meetup? 19:47:04 ^ sent after your message, disregard 19:47:22 we could do a pre-emptive one to get them thinking if you think it helps 19:47:26 is there a PTL list? 19:47:40 there is 19:47:40 https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/CurrentPTLs 19:47:43 #link https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Governance/CurrentPTLs 19:47:50 aprice: I'll let you know tomorrow if I find out for sure:) 19:48:05 sounds good! 19:48:06 i could parse - http://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/governance/tree/reference/projects.yaml - not sure if that wiki page is automagically updated 19:48:14 OK - cool. I'll work on something mrhillsman 19:48:33 #action mrhillsman send VW_ list of PTLs from projects.yaml 19:48:47 ok cool 19:48:51 that's all I had. Have to step away for a minute, just in case this finishes before I get back 19:48:51 anything else on this topic? 19:48:57 ++ 19:49:38 #topic Any other business 19:49:58 i sent out an email wrt to the Summit programming committee. 19:50:03 leong_ sent out an email re s^ 19:50:19 Working with Horace on PRC side with Zoom, will conduct in Mandarin (or biligual) 19:50:20 do you have the times in one US zone? 19:50:38 i did not get to translate the prc times you gave 19:50:52 i do not think there is an issue though because of the days 19:51:09 1/15 10pm pacific 19:51:11 and i think they are like US am times iirc 19:51:13 ok 19:51:18 leong_ where did you send that email? 19:51:23 1/17 5pm pacific 19:51:50 jamesmcarthur: i sending to uc member to request for using #openstack-uc channel 19:51:57 ah, gotcha 19:52:00 i just forwarded to you and aprice 19:52:05 thanks! 19:52:05 thanks mrhillsman 19:52:12 working with Horace on the PRC timezone and using Zoom 19:52:13 welcome 19:52:21 Horace is the new foundation staff in PRC 19:52:44 spotz or josephrsandoval ok with that request? 19:52:46 i am 19:53:02 oh yeah, I'll be sound asleep:) 19:53:17 yes 19:53:20 not sure if there are any objections from aprice or jamesmcarthur either as i am not sure of exactly content 19:53:23 ok with the request 19:53:35 lol spotz exactly 19:53:45 as one of the track chair 19:53:46 i think it's a great idea 19:53:56 wrt to Ashlee email: • 2-3 hours, Now through January 23, 2019 - Each Programming Committee member is encouraged to schedule 2-3 hours for office hours where they can provide feedback to community members on their submissions. Each member can choose the tool that works for them (IRC, Zoom, etc) and schedule at their personal convenience. 19:53:58 It's usually justy is this something for our group. Maybe the later meeting for selecting the actual talks hould be more private 19:54:03 so you are good to go leong_ 19:54:12 +1 mrhillsman 19:54:15 yeah i think that the selection process should be private 19:54:16 Agreed.
