Describe ReviewerMeeting20090729

summary

• Notes from Reviewer Meetings will go to the public launchpad-dev list in the future.
• An item to update the wiki about sponsoring contributions and take RFC to mailing list did not appear to be done. Since the issue is pressing we decided it should be re-assigned. By acclamation we decided to volunteer Karl for the task and Brad to break the news. Karl enthusiastically volunteered to review current materials on the wiki and update them as necessary.
• Gary has had a long-standing action item to start a discussion about security and view code. He reported the good news that he was about to finish the task and he sent out the email shortly after the meeting ended. Thanks Gary!
• Leonard is currently our only mentat and all agree he's doing an excellent job.

[15:06] <bac> [TOPIC] * Reviewer Meeting summary to launchpad-dev list? - bac
[15:06] <MootBot> New Topic:  * Reviewer Meeting summary to launchpad-dev list? - bac
[15:06] <rockstar> bac, +1
[15:06] <gary_poster> +1
[15:06] <mars> +1
[15:06] <bac> last week barry sent the meeting summary to the old list.  all agree we should move?
[15:06] <bigjools> yes
[15:07] <bac> rather than vote are there any objections?
=== noodles775_ is now known as noodles775
[15:07] <rockstar> Lots of people outside our development community are interested in our coding standards, etc.
[15:07] <intellectronica> i think we shouldn't email it but rather put it in the wiki
[15:07] <bac> rockstar: yeah, i think it was just an oversight.
[15:07] <intellectronica> but if we continue emailing then yes, the new list makes sense
[15:07] <bac> intellectronica: it will be on the wiki too
[15:07] <gary_poster> urg.  I guess I can subscribe.  I like the email vector.
[15:07] <bigjools> -1 for meeting notes in the wiki, +1 for up-to-date coding standards
[15:07] <rockstar> intellectronica, but we put the logs on different pages, so you can't subscribe to the wiki changes.
[15:08] <gary_poster> oh good point
[15:08] <bac> bigjools: the notes have always been on the wiki, no?
[15:08] <mars> bigjools, easier said than done.  We have a very large set of standards :)
[15:08] <bac> https://dev.launchpad.net/ReviewerMeetingAgenda
[15:08] <bigjools> and larger meeting notes :)
[15:08] <intellectronica> rockstar, gary_poster: fair enough. if people like getting the emails then it makes sense to continue with that
[15:09] <bac> bigjools: so you want to take an action item to clean up the coding standards page?
[15:09] <bigjools> I assume you're joking
[15:10] <gary_poster> lol
[15:10] <bac> well it was your suggestion..
[15:10] <bac> [TOPIC] * Action items
[15:10] <MootBot> New Topic:  * Action items
[15:10] <allenap> rockstar: You can subscribe to the wiki with a regex.
[15:10] <gary_poster> oh, that's good to know!
[15:10] <bac> * gary_poster to take importfascist and rSP() discussion to ml
[15:10] <rockstar> allenap, yeah, but then you have two problems.
[15:10] <gary_poster> lol
[15:10] <allenap> :)
[15:10] <bigjools> lol
[15:10] <bac> gary_poster: i suspect you didn't get to that while at OSCON
[15:10] <gary_poster> bac: I am writing that email as we speak.  I'll send it out this morning.
[15:10] <rockstar> Can we just take that action item off.  I think it's been around for 6 months now.
[15:11] <bac> gary_poster: great.
[15:11] <gary_poster> (was hoping to get it done by the meeting)
[15:11] <rockstar> :)
[15:11] <gary_poster> sorry rockstar, ack :-(
[15:11] <bac> * barry to update wiki about sponsoring contributions and take RFC to the mailing list
[15:11] <bac> i don't think barry did this.
[15:11] <rockstar> gary_poster, it apparently was important to any of us either.  Not your fault.  :)
[15:11] <gary_poster> :-)
[15:12] <bac> since barry is out for two weeks, would anyone like to volunteer to go ahead and take care of the sponsoring write up and ML discussion?
[15:13] <bac> would anyone like to volunteer karl?
[15:13] <gary_poster> lol we all can do that together!
[15:13] <gary_poster> I propose that we all collectively nominate call
[15:13] <gary_poster> objections?
[15:13] <bac> i'll see if karl will take the task or take care of it.
[15:13] <gary_poster> karl I mean
[15:14] <bac> [ACTION] bac to ask karl to write the sponsorship process page and ML discussion
[15:14] <MootBot> ACTION received:  bac to ask karl to write the sponsorship process page and ML discussion

Since jml was on leave and there was nothing substantial to report from the AMEU meeting it was quickly decided by Michael, Tim, and Brad to not have the asiapac meeting.
