16:03:37 <jflory7> If this is your first time at a CommOps meeting, feel free to introduce yourself to everyone and say hello! If anyone has any questions before we get started with the rest of the agenda, now is also a good time to ask.
16:04:07 <jflory7> #info Justin W. Flory; UTC-4; CommOps, Marketing / Magazine, Ambassadors, Diversity Team, Join SIG, and more
16:04:44 <jflory7> Hello all - will wait a few minutes for some more folks to arrive.

16:07:09 <jflory7> Hiya dhanesh95! Seems like everyone is sleepy today. :)
16:07:59 * jflory7 wonders who else will be in attendance today
16:08:35 <dhanesh95> Hey jflory7! Either that or they like playing hide-n-seek :P
16:09:07 <wesleyotugo> #info Wesley Otugo; UTC +1; Wanderer
16:09:22 <jflory7> Hmmm, maybe. If it's just a small handful of people today, it may be better to have today be like a hack session instead of a full meeting.
16:09:26 <jflory7> wesleyotugo: Hiya!

16:10:23 <wesleyotugo> Been way too long jflory7
16:10:41 <jflory7> wesleyotugo: It has, welcome back to CommOps!
16:11:06 <dhanesh95> Let's wait for few more minutes..
16:11:09 <jflory7> I'm going to fathom a guess that a lot of people are still getting caught up on things or busy in other places today
16:11:49 <jflory7> We're 10 minutes after, so I think this might be the show.
16:12:38 <bexelbie> .hello bex

16:13:35 <jflory7> I think we can run through the formalities for today, but it might be better to skip over tickets for now because I still have a lot of data to parse from Flock that would impact about all of the tickets that would be on the queue today.

16:19:55 <jflory7> #topic Tickets
16:20:20 <jflory7> I was originally thinking we skip over tickets, but since we have a few more people around, we can probably cover some of them now.
16:20:26 <jflory7> #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/report/9
16:20:30 <dhanesh95> jflory7: Are you sure?
16:20:45 <jflory7> dhanesh95: Sure about covering tickets?
16:20:56 <dhanesh95> jflory7: Yes.
16:21:17 <jflory7> I think so, we can make a dent in some of these, plus I think bex might have something for #25

16:22:18 <dhanesh95> skamath: o/
16:22:18 <jflory7> Heya, skamath!
16:22:28 <skamath> Hi all, sorry for the delay
16:22:44 <wesleyotugo> Sorry guys blackout
16:22:56 <skamath> jflory7, did I miss anything?
16:23:10 <jflory7> With regards to #79, I don't know what all there is to discuss right now. Lots of notes from the panel that need to be converted to data.
16:23:32 * skamath will file the ticket asap
16:23:40 <skamath> re: Mailman issue
16:23:43 <jflory7> skamath: From the workshop? I wanted to have a remote participation form either in IRC or Hangouts, but it proved difficult to do.
16:23:48 <jflory7> skamath: Ah, that will be excellent!
16:24:03 <jflory7> Special shout-out to decause for his introductory words via phone at the workshop
16:24:13 <skamath> decause++
16:24:16 <dhanesh95> decause++
16:24:24 <jflory7> I think bee2502 has a recording from the workshop on her laptop, so we can see what we can do about getting that shared out.
16:24:36 <dhanesh95> bee2502++
16:24:44 <skamath> jflory7, she said she'll be uploading it soon \o/
16:24:53 <jflory7> bee2502++ for sure - couldn't have done the workshop without her. :)
16:25:00 <jflory7> Anyways, I have no further updates here
16:25:38 <jflory7> I don't have anything to bring up for #25 right now... so unless someone else had something, I'm going to skip over it until next week
16:25:42 <skamath> jflory7, vFAD?
16:26:28 <jflory7> skamath: We didn't have a whole lot of time to discuss it at the workshop, but we received some feedback that was super helpful for things we could focus on for the vFAD. I'm going to wrap that one together with the Flock workshop because once we close out that one, it will be easier to update about the vFAD.
16:26:49 * skamath nods. Sounds good
16:26:57 <jflory7> If we want, we can cover it now, but I don't have much to say (yet) right now.
16:27:04 * dhanesh95 +1
16:27:05 <jflory7> Definitely will by next week
16:27:19 <skamath> Alright then :)
16:27:21 <dhanesh95> jflory7: I think next week is a good option

16:27:49 <jflory7> #action jflory7 File tickets for Python SIG, add feedback for Ambassadors from workshop
16:28:01 <jflory7> At the workshop, we received a lot of feedback specifically for the Python SIG and also Ambassadors
16:28:25 <bee2502> jflory7++
16:28:45 <jflory7> I'd like to put Python SIG high up on our priority list as I think there's a lot of ways we can have both a short-term and long-term impact with their on-boarding process and making it easier for them to collaborate as a team by improving on some areas of communication
16:29:03 <jflory7> We have some notes that we took from their current on-boarding process and understanding the kind of things they look for in a new contributor.
16:29:15 <jflory7> But some of it is subjective, which will be interesting and challenging to approach.
16:29:24 <jflory7> I'll be sure to include that information in the ticket.
16:29:45 <skamath> jflory7, I can tackle the yml writing part I guess
16:29:47 <bee2502> Unfortunately, I have to leave office for home now - I will be back in 45 mins or so. Will probably have to look at logs but hope to back soon
16:29:54 <jflory7> Ambassadors will be a much bigger challenge to take on, and will require a lot of coordination and feedback. I think that one may be the biggest one we tackle for all the series.
16:29:54 <dhanesh95> jflory7: CC me on that one..
16:30:01 <jflory7> bee2502: Okay, sounds good! See you in a bit.
16:30:10 <skamath> Seeya bee2502 o/
16:30:18 <jflory7> skamath: Sounds like a plan to me! :) Will definitely CC you and dhanesh95 to the ticket.
16:30:50 <dhanesh95> I would love to work on the Python SIG part
16:30:51 <skamath> Badge Ninja Mode - On.

16:31:39 <jflory7> Anyways, moving on...
16:31:51 <jflory7> #info === Ticket #80 ===
16:32:01 <jflory7> #info "Create 'wiki-editors' FAS group"
16:32:06 <jflory7> #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/ticket/80
16:32:06 <skamath> heh, I didn't know there was this badge
16:32:18 <jflory7> This one has generated a *lot* of interest
16:32:21 <jflory7> ping bexelbie
16:32:26 <bexelbie> pong :P
16:32:29 <bexelbie> ty jflory7
16:32:30 <skamath> Oh man, this topic is the hot topic right now
16:32:36 * sayan is having terrible internet issues, will check with logs
16:32:47 <skamath> sayan, o/
16:32:52 <jflory7> After reading through all of the feedback in the ticket, I think it will make more sense for us to reconsider the onboarding processes for the teams that work closest with the wiki
16:33:05 <skamath> jflory7, so it's a -1?
16:33:10 <jflory7> Off the top of my head, this is likely going to mostly be Ambassadors, some of Marketing, and to some extent, us, but not quite
16:33:20 <jflory7> I'm not familiar with how all the different teams use the wiki, though
16:33:27 <jflory7> Like I don't have that knowledge for Docs or Packaging, per say
16:33:48 <jflory7> It would be helpful to know how much of a challenge it would be to remove the wiki as a basic newcomer requirement for other teams
16:33:58 <skamath> jflory7, one thing I read was enabling edit of User pages alone. But I don't think it's possible with the current infra - is it?
16:34:05 <jflory7> skamath: That's how I'm feeling, just because of how persistent these spammers are. Social engineering is crazy
16:34:24 <jflory7> skamath: I was reading doubts about if that were possible, but I'm not familiar with MediaWiki, so we'd want to ask a member of Infra.
16:34:25 <bexelbie> I haven't heard any of the groups saying this has halted them
16:34:35 <jflory7> Yeah
16:34:37 <bexelbie> is it possible that there is not an issue here, except for possibly Ambassadors?
16:34:55 <jflory7> I think Ambassadors are the ones who are affected most
16:35:03 <jflory7> I think all the other teams are or have adapted already
16:35:04 <bexelbie> And with Ambassadors, perhaps letting them know that either they change their process or they push for this group or they realize they can't get anyone who isn't already active somewhere else may be enough
16:35:18 <bexelbie> I think it likely many teams didn't notice :P
16:35:31 <bexelbie> Has Ambassadors approached CommOps to solve this for them?
16:35:36 <jflory7> heheh, that too
16:36:03 <jflory7> Not yet, but I'm not sure about whether this has been communicated yet. The people we'd want to reach out to would be the mentors since they're the ones handling on-boarding newcomers.
16:36:12 <jflory7> I have a feeling that everyone does it a little bit differently
16:36:22 <bexelbie> If they haven't, perhaps just dropping this is for the best.  I realize we want to handle onboarding with commops, however the first stop for most folks probably isn't ambassadors
16:36:29 <bexelbie> I'm not saying it isn't possible
16:36:33 * jflory7 nods
16:36:34 <bexelbie> just seems less likely to me
16:36:39 <bexelbie> that said, I have no data to support that
16:36:43 * skamath feels the same
16:36:44 <jflory7> That was also the sentiment expressed at Flock by many heavily involved with Ambassadors
16:36:56 <bexelbie> I do know that with FOSCO and other issues Ambasadors may be real busy right now anyway
16:38:15 <jflory7> Right. So the more I'm thinking about this, I'm seeing it as a non-issue. And for the few edge cases, we can likely work out something on an individual basis without putting too much strain on people to handle those edge cases
16:38:30 <bexelbie> +1
16:38:59 <jflory7> So, yes, I'm considering moving this ticket towards a "wontfix". And then for anything specific to Ambassadors, this can fit into the already existing ticket for their on-boarding process when we get to that ticket.
16:39:05 <jflory7> +1 for wontfix
16:39:11 <skamath> +1 for wontfix
16:39:51 <dhanesh95> +1
16:40:10 <jflory7> Call for any last votes, going once...
16:40:20 <jflory7> Going twice...
16:40:30 <jflory7> Going thrice...
16:41:21 <jflory7> #agreed Will close ticket as "wontfix" due to other potential issues that could come by doing this (e.g. social engineering / spammers) - hasn't affected most teams so will handle on an individual basis for any edge cases that do come along. Further discussion can fit into on-boarding tickets for individual teams.
16:41:32 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Close ticket#80
16:41:53 <jflory7> Okay, excellent, that's all the tickets I had noted for today.

16:42:29 <jflory7> Any specific pages to garden?
16:42:36 <jflory7> I had one, but it's not one that I'm quite qualified to tackle
16:42:44 <skamath> Did a bit of gardening this week

16:43:41 <skamath> jflory7, very minor changes to the CommOps main and Join wiki
16:44:04 <skamath> Added an info in the Add yourself to wiki section : https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/CommOps/Join
16:44:09 <jflory7> Awesome. Yeah, I've been thinking about our own page for a while... I think it's starting to show a little bit of cruft.
16:44:23 <jflory7> Ah, yeah, nice one
16:44:24 <jflory7> skamath++
16:44:43 <jflory7> skamath: Hopefully will save comments in introductions when people say that they were unable to add themselves in. :)
