04:21:52 eof 04:21:59 +1 04:22:21 ! 04:22:28 maktrix, please 04:22:37 discussing during the meals is not a good idea 04:22:45 +1 04:22:47 we must have a dedicated session / time for this 04:22:51 eof 04:22:54 +1 maktrix 04:23:01 ! 04:23:03 +1 maktrix 04:23:04 :D 04:23:05 tuanta: go 04:23:34 I do not think prioritizing is good ideas 04:23:38 since 04:23:44 * FranciscoD reminds folks to keep their text written and ready to save time 04:24:00 in my thoughts, we have two big issues to solve 04:24:09 +1 FranciscoD ==> Power to the people. ;) 04:24:11 first is How to improve APAC ambassadors meeting quality (tuanta) 04:24:21 and the second is How to improve the quality of community activities and contributions in APAC 04:24:35 ! 04:24:37 boht have details 04:24:38 +1 Tuan - tuanta :D 04:24:41 ! 04:24:54 1/2/3... are just details 04:25:03 eof 04:25:03 FranciscoD, please 04:25:06 Well, we'll have to start on some topic, so a priority is inherent :) 04:25:09 then, bckurera 04:25:31 The only way I see us improving meetings is be holding regular meetings and *strictly* adhering to protocol 04:25:41 I don't think talking about it is going to do anything really. 04:25:50 +1 FranciscoD 04:25:54 +1 04:26:01 There are good practices that we need to follow. Discussing this isnt going to bring changes IMO 04:26:04 eof 04:26:17 We have lot to discuss, and these things can take longer time I suppose therefore if we take some important questions first that will help. Just an idea 04:26:36 I think we need more participation for meetings 04:26:37 bckurera: ++ (basically the same thing as prioritizing) 04:26:52 +1 :p 04:26:57 that is one thing we need to make sure ! 04:26:59 eof 04:27:21 * FranciscoD notes: question for questionnaire and the survey: "How many of your regional ambassador meetings do you attend?" 04:27:22 FranciscoD: I think we have a lot of things to improve the quality of meetings, we should go discussing f2f in KL! 04:27:24 ! 04:27:29 :D 04:27:36 FranciscoD, please 04:27:46 tuanta: can you please state these things in detail? 04:28:04 I'd like to go over them and see if f2f at KL makes sense for them ;) 04:28:05 eof 04:28:06 yes, I wrote them on the wiki 04:28:23 1-6 are suggested details 04:28:31 tuanta: with all due respect, I don't see how talking about them will make a change 04:28:39 They are guidelines that need to be *practiced* 04:28:52 discussing them doesn't directly imply implementation. 04:29:04 FranciscoD: I hope we will have solutions after that section 04:29:22 * FranciscoD feels we already know what must be done to have better meetings 04:29:22 those all are suggestions 04:29:35 sure, FranciscoD 04:29:42 tuanta: can I state what I think must be done? And you folks can decide if they need discussion or not? 04:29:45 we should discuss them all before 04:30:16 1. Quorum: We need to encourage Ambassadors to join the meetings. This will be done over a period of time. We are already seeing an increase in attendance 04:30:26 2. Protocl needs to be adhered to: 04:30:39 a. Wait your turn: Use ?! to request your turn 04:30:49 b. Each meeting will have a leader who gives folks turns. 04:31:08 b.i This person needs to be extra attentive, to ensure no time is wasted in giving turns 04:31:27 c. Don't start typing after you get your turn. Keep the text ready 04:31:43 d.i All tickets that need to be discussed need to be marked 'meeting' on the track 04:32:07 d.ii If the ticket filer is not present, the ticket will be given less priority. 04:32:19 e. Dont forget to EOF as soon as you're done ;) 04:32:20 EOF 04:32:24 great. that's things should added onto the wiki. 04:32:38 +1 FranciscoD 04:32:40 8-) Cool man!!! 8-) +1 04:32:44 tuanta: these are things we put out in every meeting. Its just about folks starting to use them. 04:32:56 ! 04:32:59 maktrix: go 04:33:01 IMHO the rules are a bit overkill. 04:33:02 Ones attendance will be considered during his/her request of budget for event 04:33:24 eof 04:33:40 * FranciscoD notes that these are guidelines. We have no rules. 04:33:48 kaio_ph: I'd still like you to clarify what you feel is overkill 04:33:50 ;) 04:34:19 so, everyone, please add more details to the wiki before we go to KL 04:34:26 +1 04:34:28 my topic done 04:34:32 * FranciscoD waits for kaio_ph 04:34:57 2 a c e 04:34:59 * FranciscoD suggests folks attend meeting such as famsco and the board and see how they do it 04:35:10 kaio_ph: I'm sorry. I disagree 04:35:23 #action all add more details to the f2f meeting wiki https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:KualaLumpur_2012/BoF_discussion#Discussion_Ideas before we go to KL 04:35:25 They are the most important IMO. To maintain structure during the meeting 04:35:31 Using too many symbols are quite user unfriendly. 04:35:55 they are one/three character, I don't see how they are user unfriendly? 04:36:20 my topic done. next now? 04:36:23 when too many people talk simultanously during a meeting, the following happens: 04:36:25 FAmSCo won't use : ?! to proceed discussions. 04:36:28 :D 04:36:29 1. no one understands what happens 04:36:39 kaio_ph: famsco has 4 people in attendance on an average 04:36:49 tuanta: 2 more minutes, time me :P 04:36:56 yes, please :) 04:37:08 2. the logs get difficult to read for folks who miss the meeting 04:37:20 3. tags such as info are difficult to use 04:37:33 Eof is okay, but symbols are too abstract and confuse people with the original way of usage. 04:37:33 4. multiple things getting discussed together => none of them discussed properly 04:37:44 kaio_ph: you mean ! and ? 04:37:54 for 'raise your hand' and 'ask a question'? 04:38:08 we can change it to o/ 04:38:15 : ! ? 04:38:17 if that is more 'raise your hand' 04:38:24 ? 04:39:02 How about this: 04:39:15 I'll make a wiki page for protocols, and request folks on the list to have a look 04:39:19 I am personally predict people won't follow the rules for long, as the rules are not natural. 04:39:31 kaio_ph: exactly, it is our business to make them natural 04:39:37 natural/second nature 04:39:41 the irc is not the same as f2f 04:39:48 you cant have the same method of dicsussion 04:39:49 ! 04:39:52 eof 04:39:54 bckurera: go 04:40:00 I think adhering to the guideline is good and proper ! 04:40:09 but they should be simple not much 04:40:09 Anything needs to memorise are not helping. Anyways, I am expressing my concern. I don't mind if you want to try that. 04:40:22 #action FranciscoD put all guidelines on wiki and request mailing lists to go look 04:40:36 will try to keep it as a habit, then all use to do it and finally we have nice log which is easy to read 04:40:41 ! 04:40:58 ! ? eof would be enough and simple, IMO 04:41:00 eof 04:41:03 kaio_ph: ! ? EOF -> 5 characters, not a lot of RAM needed. If you use them for a single meeting, you understand and use them forever. No memory needed IMO. 04:41:09 FranciscoD, go 04:41:24 tuanta: sorry, fingers too quick :P 04:41:39 ? :) 04:41:44 anyway, I'll put them on the wiki and stuff, eof 04:41:45 dramsey: go 04:42:32 ! 04:42:32 Hello Everyone, I hope that we all vote and I was wondering if Kaio - kaio_ph and Gerard - gbraad were running for FAmSCo? eof 04:42:34 :) 04:43:09 dramsey: eof? 04:43:23 +1 eof 04:43:26 sorry 04:43:29 * FranciscoD notes the 45 seconds dramsey wasted :P 04:43:31 bckurera: go 04:43:35 bckurera, go ahead 04:43:47 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/IRCHowTo#Protocol 04:43:53 link++ 04:44:00 you can use these info as well 04:44:01 eof 04:44:16 ! 04:44:18 FranciscoD: go 04:44:25 ok, we should move on 04:44:30 bckurera: I think its the same info that i laid out? 04:44:31 move on ++ 04:44:32 eof 04:44:33 this could be back in Open Floor 04:44:46 #topic APAC Events and Status of F17 Release Parties (dramsey) 04:45:15 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F17_release_events 04:45:23 for F17 Release Events 04:45:33 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Events#FY13_Q1_.28March_2012_-_May_2012.29_4 04:45:40 for Fedora Events 04:45:44 eof from dramsey 04:45:45 :) 04:46:13 ! 04:46:16 ? 04:46:19 bckurera: go 04:46:31 bckurera then FranciscoD :) 04:46:38 #info If anyone needs design team help for events please ping me, ready to help ! 04:46:41 eof 04:46:48 FranciscoD: go 04:46:59 dramsey: is this still valid?
