13:02:34 <lorip> our first item is hear how things are going with the activities
13:02:44 <lorip> #topic stage 1 activity update
13:03:15 <lorip> chris/meghan - how's it going?
13:03:35 <ChrisMurphy_> so far so good
13:03:48 <meghan_> yes, so far so good for me too.
13:04:08 <meghan_> I've finished stage 1a and have done the FOSS Field trip
13:04:30 <ChrisMurphy_> I've done 1A, haven't started 1B yet but will do it this weekend
13:05:25 <heidie> Do you feel that you're starting to get a feel for open source?
13:05:27 <darci> Any questions, thoughts, concerns?
13:06:43 <meghan_> I don't have any questions.
13:07:02 <meghan_> I do feel like the activities have helped me get a better sense of how the projects are organized
13:07:06 <ChrisMurphy_> me neither, though I'm interested in learning more about how people teach open-source
13:07:22 <ChrisMurphy_> I pitched an Open-Source Software Development course at Penn and it was not approved by the faculty
13:07:35 <ChrisMurphy_> but I hope to have more ammo after visiting Raleigh next month
13:07:38 <lorip> any reaction to the anatomy of a foss project?  thoughts on the sugar labs or sahana eden information you gathered?
13:08:14 <darci> ChrisMurphy_: What were the concerns of the faculty who didn't approve of the course?
13:08:44 <ChrisMurphy_> they wanted to incorporate it into either our Software Engineering course or Senior Design, and not create a separate course for it
13:08:59 <ChrisMurphy_> sorry "Senior Design" = "Senior Project"
13:09:28 <heidie> Ah, interesting
13:09:57 <meghan_> Both the sugar labs and sahana eden projects seemed well organized to me, which I would assume encourages contributions from new people
13:10:32 <meghan_> I've looked at enough open source projects before that I wasn't surprised by the way they were organized.
13:11:02 * lorip nodding - that makes sense
13:11:16 <lorip> hi alex & rubyK
13:11:21 <rubyK> Hi Lori :)
13:11:39 <heidie> Hi Barrett_Koster_
13:11:43 <Barrett_Koster_> hi.
13:11:51 <lorip> we are just getting updates on stage 1
13:11:59 <lorip> we have an agenda at
13:12:00 <Barrett_Koster_> are the other people on here?
13:12:15 <heidie> Yup, we've got ChrisMurphy_ and meghan_ and rubyK
13:12:16 <lorip> #link http://foss2serve.org/index.php/IRC_Meeting_2
13:12:28 <heidie> and [1]alex
13:13:28 <lorip> how are the activities going barrett & ruby?
13:14:05 <Barrett_Koster_> I'm still getting into the meeting_2 notes.
13:14:29 <rubyK> going well. I am done with stage 1 except for the mailhide encryption and recaptcha
13:15:37 <lorip> any questions/thoughts/suggestions rubyK
13:16:09 <Barrett_Koster_> I got on the mailing list last time, saw the mail-hide thing.  ....
13:16:11 <rubyK> Any suggestion for an encyption algorithm to use for the recaptcha ? I tried to find something online but it was not too easy :/
13:16:54 * lorip thinking, I'm not sure I understand rubyK's question
13:17:11 <Barrett_Koster_> Is there a pointer to the Stage1 and/or Stage2  instructions / goals ?
13:17:24 <lorip> #link http://foss2serve.org/index.php/POSSE_2014-11
13:17:36 <lorip> the link above is to Stage 1 in general
13:19:08 <Barrett_Koster> Oops.   I sorta crashed the browser.
13:19:38 <lorip> the link to the specific activities is
13:19:39 <heidie> :-)
13:19:43 <lorip> #link http://foss2serve.org/index.php/Stage_1_Activities#Part_A:_First_Two_Weeks
13:20:36 <lorip> rubyK are you referring to
13:20:47 <lorip> #link https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/mailhideapi
13:21:25 <rubyK> yes
13:21:47 <lorip> if you click on the link under obtaining a key it will create one that you can use
13:22:22 <stoney> funny… I don’t remember doing the mailhide thing when I added myself to TOS rollcall. But then I don’t remember much of anything :)
13:22:31 <Barrett_Koster> Ah, I got to the activities page.
13:22:35 <lorip> chrismurphy_ or meghan_ did you have any problems with this?
13:22:50 <heidie> Barrett_Koster: Is there any thing specific that we can help you get started with?
13:23:08 <rubyK> yes but i need an ASE CBC encyption algorithm. is the only way to do it is to using Openssl package?
13:23:16 <meghan_> I was able to use that link (I think) to get the key. I took me a long time to correctly generate the URL
13:23:28 <darci> rubyK: I just checked your entry on the roll call and was able to enter the specified text to see your email address
13:23:55 <rubyK> me too meghan :/
13:24:07 <Barrett_Koster> Well, it's my first time IRC, and I had the login problem earlier in the month, so ... just a little slow getting going.
13:24:32 <darci> :)
13:25:09 <heidie> Ah, OK.
13:25:44 <heidie> Do feel free to ping folks in the foss2serve IRC channel.
13:25:53 <heidie> Some of us hang out there frequently.
13:25:59 * lorip looking for ruby's entry on TOS
13:26:11 <rubyK> I am good then :) Thanks Darci
13:26:14 <Barrett_Koster> I'm happy to have a place to go to get stuff, rather than waiting for it to float by in my email flood.
13:27:25 <heidie> Barrett_Koster: Are you referring to the IRC channel? Or to the Stage 1 activities?
13:27:34 <lorip> rubyK - glad to hear it!
13:27:47 <darci> Barrett_Koster: Do you have any questions about the activities so far?
13:29:10 <Barrett_Koster> Both?  I knew we were supposed to be doing stuff, and I was trying to find messages about it in my email, but I apparently missed the crossover to the IRC/StageX site, ....
13:29:24 <Barrett_Koster> I see now what I need to catch up on .... not too bad, looks like fun.
13:30:22 <heidie> Yes, the goal is that the activities should be fun and easy to accomplish.
13:31:47 <lorip> other thoughts on Stage 1?
13:32:46 <lorip> questions about Stage 2?
13:32:55 <lorip> #topic Stage 2 questions
13:33:19 <lorip> have people made their travel arrangements to Raleigh?
13:33:31 <ChrisMurphy_> yes
13:33:37 <meghan_> yes
13:34:14 <Barrett_Koster> OK, so.  The stage1 goals go to Nov 12.  So ... what about stage 2?  Oh, is that the workshop itself?
13:34:54 <lorip> yes, stage 2 is the face to face workshop in Raleigh
13:34:58 <heidie> Stage 1 and three parts: A, B, and C.
13:35:19 <heidie> Each part is intended to be spread over sequential 2-week periods leading up to Stage 2.
13:35:25 <lorip> you should have received an email from greg a few minutes ago with hotel information
13:35:37 <Barrett_Koster> I live a mile away, no problem on stage2.  So yeah, I'm back on stage1 ABC ... have some thing to do obviously.
13:38:17 <lorip> other questions?
13:38:19 <rubyK> yes I got my airline tickets
13:39:37 <heidie> rubyK: Good!
13:39:43 <heidie> Does everyone else have airline tix?
13:39:53 <lorip> we plan to have 1 more IRC before we meet in Raleigh
13:40:13 <Barrett_Koster> I may sign in again on Monday night .... will have done more of this stuff, may have some questions.   But that is not the "one more" you are referring to?
13:40:45 <heidie> One more IRC meeting.
13:40:50 <lorip> I'm thinking it will be the end of the week of Nov. 3/beginning of the following week
13:41:00 <Barrett_Koster> ok.
13:41:18 <lorip> if there is nothing else, I'll wrap up the meeting
13:41:21 <heidie> The IRC channel is available anytime, but we also have specific meeting times as well.
13:41:31 <ChrisMurphy_> ok thanks!
13:41:33 <Barrett_Koster> That's fine with me.  Thanks for being here.
13:41:34 <lorip> thanks so much for chatting this morning

13:41:54 <lorip> if you have any questions, feel free to ping any of us - we are happy to help!
13:41:58 <heidie> :-)
