02:00:42 <juggler> hope so!
02:00:50 <cprofitt> hope so as well.
02:00:53 <award3535> cprofitt its good to see you here
02:01:05 <juggler> likewise you award
02:01:09 <cprofitt> how many have we typically had in a meeting in the past?
02:01:18 <cprofitt> I am glad I could finally make one of these meetings.
02:01:29 <award3535> its hard to say, but in the last few months very few
02:02:02 <juggler> yeah it's been spotty, what with hurricanes at low attendance
02:02:09 <juggler> at -> and
02:02:21 <cprofitt> any insight as to why?
02:02:41 <cprofitt> hurricanes have had an impact?
02:02:53 <award3535> again its hard to say, a lot of very spotty and unusual events
02:03:05 <juggler> well for myself, I've been stuck in commutes from work. but I started working from home, so I should be able to catch the beginnings of meets in theory.
02:03:33 * cprofitt nods
02:03:47 <juggler> just to give everyone a heads up though, I will need to duck out around :35 for volunteering later tonight...

02:04:41 <award3535> #info  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F27_Ambassadors_briefing
02:04:42 <juggler> Fedora 27 is just around the corner I here...
02:04:47 <juggler> hear
02:05:19 <award3535> I looked at the collective items on the page and its a good start to what we need to do to get back on track
02:05:50 <award3535> it also has the points we as a group can discuss at events
02:05:55 <award3535> #chair kk4ewt
02:05:55 <zodbot> Current chairs: award3535 cprofitt juggler kk4ewt
02:06:30 <juggler> thanks award, that will be very helpful to me as I adapt my existing training slides going from F26 -> F27
02:06:58 <juggler> hello kk4ewt
02:07:05 <cprofitt> hey kk4ewt
02:07:19 <award3535> juggler that is part of the mindshare imitative and hopefully we will find out more
02:07:44 <award3535> once the appointments are in
02:08:44 <juggler> excellent
02:09:07 <award3535> does everyone understand what the mindshare ambassadors appointments process
02:09:14 <cprofitt> award3535: I do not...
02:09:33 <cprofitt> did not want to derail the meeting... perhaps there is something I can read to not slow things down.
02:10:00 <award3535> cprofitt, I will send you a link
02:10:08 <cprofitt> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mindshare/Nominations
02:10:11 <cprofitt> is that it?
02:10:15 <juggler> award: please send here as well, thank you
02:10:40 <award3535> yes that is the one that connects everything to the mindshare initiative
02:11:06 <award3535> council tickets also point to the same area

02:11:53 <zodbot> award3535: Issue #190: FAmNA meetings moving to Bi weekly over next few months - tasks - Pagure - https://pagure.io/ambassadors-na/tasks/issue/190
02:12:07 <award3535> http://whenisgood.net/fedora/famna/2017-meeting-time/results/xqefi8h
02:12:34 * kk4ewt 
02:13:04 <award3535> the link above shows the few people that have given inputs
02:13:54 <award3535> I have also spoken with kk4ewt as well via phone
02:13:59 <juggler> are times listed Eastern?
02:14:10 <award3535> yes juggler they are
02:14:24 <juggler> award thank you
02:14:55 <award3535> but with that said, I think that splitting the meeting into two separate meetings and run by the regional rep
02:15:21 <award3535> for instance, one meeting a month will be hosted by us on the east coast at a coordinated time
02:15:39 <award3535> the other will be hosted by the west coast at a coordinated time.
02:16:02 <juggler> sounds good
02:16:42 <award3535> this does not mean that a person from the east coast should not attempt to be in the west coast meeting or vice versa, it is set to afford maximum participation for each coast
02:17:43 <award3535> if the west coast meeting is at a time that I can attend, I will be present as just an ambassador, the same should go for anyone on the west coast
02:18:16 <cprofitt> I will try to attend both sets, but it will depend on what is going on. I really like this idea.
02:18:42 <award3535> I am currently working on the ground rules, that will be easy to understand and be available to everyone for review
02:18:48 <kk4ewt> we dont know if it will work until we try it
02:19:00 * cprofitt nods
02:19:12 <cprofitt> thank you for working on it award3535
02:19:15 * juggler agrees
02:19:30 <award3535> jflory7 and I have been throwing some ideas around with some input from bex
02:20:08 <award3535> I also will need to identify who will chair the west coast meeting as primary, then one as secondary
02:21:34 <award3535> so, I would like to see juggler chair since he seems to be the most active on the west coast
02:21:52 <award3535> this is something that the west coast needs to think about.
02:22:16 <juggler> I think I could volunteer as a secondary, since of my later meeting departures. I don't want to leave the meetings so soon.
02:22:17 <award3535> for us on the east coast, I will continue to chair the meetings for us
02:22:47 <award3535> juggler, remember that you guys on the west coast will set your meeting time and dates
02:23:06 <juggler> oh, we can? nice!
02:24:14 <award3535> yes, that is the purpose of having one on your coast set at your time and date, but you would have to send it out to the mailing list so those of us on the east coast who desire to attend will know what time your meeting is
02:24:31 <award3535> that will be part of the ground rules we set
02:24:40 <juggler> sounds workable
02:25:14 <award3535> thats the purpose of us doing that so that we can all have participation with all that can attend
02:25:50 <award3535> there will be more in the next few weeks on this put out
02:26:20 <award3535> .famnaticket 191
02:26:21 <juggler> thanks
02:26:21 <zodbot> award3535: Issue #191: Fedora Event: SCaLE 16x - Pasadena, CA - tasks - Pagure - https://pagure.io/ambassadors-na/tasks/issue/191
02:26:46 <award3535> juggler, this is your event and we still have time but glad to see that you are starting now
02:27:16 <juggler> I figured what with the bi-weekly stretches, better to start soon!
02:27:23 <award3535> this budget actually falls in FY19 for Fedora, but will have to come out of the FY18 cycle
02:27:52 <juggler> I'm also waiting to hear back from other ambassadors regarding tentative availability
02:28:19 <juggler> so things may be changing for that ticket/wiki
02:28:29 <award3535> juggler also the event budget isnt as large because the event does not charge for booth space
02:28:37 <juggler> I would like to ask, might it be possible to get Alejandro back pending availability?
02:28:58 <juggler> and assuming he's still interested, of course.
02:29:20 <award3535> juggler, that is and has been the standard, please contact him and see if he is available for  the event
02:29:54 <juggler> we will do our best!
02:30:17 <award3535> juggler also please keep in mind that my credit card does not do currency exchange for his reimbursement, bex will have to complete his
02:30:28 <juggler> also, if anybody could connect me with info how to set up badges...perhaps I can set up a badge for SCaLE maybe.
02:30:41 <award3535> #chair reher
02:30:41 <zodbot> Current chairs: award3535 cprofitt juggler kk4ewt reher
02:30:45 <juggler> hello reher
02:30:48 <award3535> evening reher
02:31:05 <reher> apologies. at the office still, but able to join.
02:31:25 <cprofitt> hello reher
02:31:37 <juggler> glad you could join reher...no worries
02:31:48 <reher> award3535, juggler, cprofitt, hello to all.
02:31:59 <award3535> reher, you can catch up on the logs, we just finished with the meeting ticket and now are discussing Scale ticket 191
02:32:11 <reher> will do.
02:32:30 <juggler> btw award, Paradox or I might be coordinating swag and supply ticket separately. Paradox advised me he is running low on things.
02:33:48 <award3535> juggler, keep in mind that the swag will require a lot of quotes and best pricing available and it is a lot of work
02:34:29 <juggler> uh oh, perhaps I should defer that to Paradox since he is versed on that ordering..
02:34:46 <juggler> I do know he is busy though, so I will help where I can.
02:34:51 <award3535> jasoncallaway are you there?
02:35:18 <juggler> I saw his earlier login. is jason == Tom or != Tom
02:35:39 <award3535> its jason, new ambassador that nb brought in
02:36:17 <juggler> cool
02:36:29 <award3535> juggler, I will look forward to seeing this ticket progress and dont hesitate to email me if you have questions
02:36:46 <juggler> I think that's it for me on that ticket. Please let me know if you see any show-stoppers on the ticket or wiki as it develops.
02:36:57 <juggler> it -> they
02:38:04 <juggler> by the way, before I go, I'm not sure who has access to update this page, but I think the meeting time for Ambassadors could use an update: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/calendar/ambassadors/?tzone=US/Pacific
02:38:07 <award3535> juggler, we had planned for scale since it is one of our largest events
02:38:32 <juggler> we are very grateful for that, thanks all!
02:38:46 <award3535> ok moving on
02:38:49 <award3535> #topic == Open Floor ===
