12:33:19 <VipulSiddharth[m> boooo
12:33:32 <riecatnor[m]> I am working on making sure that is fully up to date, with the feedback from mindshare incorporated as well. at the same time I will be updating Justin on the budget things. Him and/or myself will be providing a report next week
12:33:40 <riecatnor[m]> hi Vipul Siddharth :)
12:33:40 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> VipulSiddharth[m: Won't let you have all the fun of blowing zodbot up ;P
12:33:54 * jwf|web waves to VipulSiddharth[m
12:34:05 <OnuralpSezer[m]1> Vipul drop the boom :) and zodbot didn't handle it :))
12:34:20 <OnuralpSezer[m]1> * it :))  Hello o/
12:34:29 <jwf|web> #question What is the format for the budget report typically? A CommBlog post?
12:35:15 <riecatnor[m]> I have been giving informal updates, Justin
12:35:15 <OnuralpSezer[m]1> Normally there is a website for full report and you can write some small blog post and point to budget website but budget website quite old atm ?
12:35:30 <OnuralpSezer[m]1> * IMO, Normally there
12:35:44 <riecatnor[m]> the budget website was never fully operational, bex was manually updating that and I don't have that skillset
12:35:47 <jwf|web> I remember Bex's website, but I think it was a Bex thing :)
12:35:55 <riecatnor[m]> I last produced a pdf
12:36:06 <riecatnor[m]> let me grab the previous one
12:36:11 <OnuralpSezer[m]1> jwf|web: yup
12:36:34 <riecatnor[m]> hmmm the upload is failing
12:36:39 <jwf|web> riecatnor[m]: Thanks! I was curious for what precedent is for the last few releases.
12:36:46 * riecatnor[m] uploaded an image: (219KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/r0/download/fedora.im/c66a2244ddfdff9f40459511f984c73aa7b3d998/Budget%20Report-%20FY%2022.png >
12:36:49 <jwf|web> If you can't pull it up now, no worries
12:37:01 <jwf|web> Ooh, pretty
12:37:38 <riecatnor[m]> providing these reports has admittedly not been my strong suit, although we haven't run out of money, and I have done a decent job making sure we have spent the majority of it the past three years
12:38:10 <riecatnor[m]> I definitely think this is a place which needs improvement. Since you are starting fresh, Justin, I would suggest implementing the best way you feel it should be done
12:38:20 <riecatnor[m]> and it would be great to be sustainable so that the next fcaic has an easier time than I
12:38:31 <jwf|web> I'll definitely be taking a think on this one
12:38:55 <luna> /j #kde
12:38:57 <jwf|web> The PDF report looks nice anyways though :)
12:39:00 <luna> woops
12:39:05 <riecatnor[m]> you and I will take some time to review the budget and I can show you how the png I shared was made
12:39:13 <OnuralpSezer[m]1> riecatnor:  Akashdeep Dhar  maybe after we can do something similar to budget website after we did our work on new websites (we have our CMS stuff and we can info more easily..... what do you think guys ?)
12:39:14 <jwf|web> riecatnor++
12:39:30 <OnuralpSezer[m]1> * we can add info more
12:39:45 <riecatnor[m]> if there was a nice interface to update websites, that any avg person can use with ease, I think that would be great
12:40:46 <jwf|web> I wonder if other open communities have tried to solve this problem before
12:40:49 <AkashdeepDhar[m]> OnuralpSezer[m]1: +1. This should make it easy for folks to go ahead and make changes without worrying about the technicalities.
12:42:19 <riecatnor[m]> I have received some feedback that we need to make this more transparent. My focus ended up on other things, which were good things, but I admittedly didn't do the best job on this. I take accountability for that, and I hope that this is a place Justin can improve things
12:42:53 <riecatnor[m]> jwf|web: I think doing some research along these lines is a great approach
12:43:20 <jwf|web> riecatnor[m] Appreciate what you've done here already, it is not the most glorious part of the job :-)
12:43:38 <jwf|web> I can help support on research and exploration of ways to make this info more accessible
12:43:40 <riecatnor[m]> lol, for sure
12:44:02 <jwf|web> I have a few early ideas but I think it is off-topic for right now
12:44:10 <riecatnor[m]> thank you, Justin. And I am definitely up to brainstorm with you on what/how would be the best approach
12:44:14 <jwf|web> \o/
12:44:32 <riecatnor[m]> ok, anything else regarding budget for now?
12:45:44 <riecatnor[m]> I will take that as a no, but this will come up again soon :)
12:45:45 <riecatnor[m]> #topic quarterly report
12:45:47 <riecatnor[m]> #link https://pagure.io/mindshare/issue/333
12:45:59 <riecatnor[m]> #link https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/?p=11306&preview=true&_thumbnail_id=10616
12:46:06 <riecatnor[m]> so, the Q2 report never made it all the way out
12:46:36 <riecatnor[m]> my question is- should this still go out?
12:46:58 * jwf|web is logging in to see the preview
12:47:17 <riecatnor[m]> next question is- do we think this is useful long term? tbh it's been a bit tough gathering the info
12:47:21 <luna> if its not too much work? but maybe can move it in Wordpress to an earlier date
12:47:33 <riecatnor[m]> hmm the preview should be public?
12:47:43 <luna> got a 404 here
12:47:59 <riecatnor[m]> #link https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/?p=11306&preview=1&_ppp=a566018dd4
12:48:10 <riecatnor[m]> sent the wrong link, oops. that one should work
12:48:32 <riecatnor[m]> in theory, this is a great thing. in practice, we lost some steam after a couple reports and it got a lot harder to do
12:48:38 <jwf|web> riecatnor[m]: What has the outreach been like around this? Any feedback from any teams, or what do other team reps here feel about it?
12:48:47 <luna> yep that works
12:49:14 <riecatnor[m]> Also Nest happened and consumed my work life so this went to the wayside
12:49:37 <jwf|web> Also, how are updates flagged for publishing? Does one person take ownership and finding news, or does everyone pitch in on a draft each quarter?
12:49:44 <riecatnor[m]> We would manage to get about 1/3 of the post in meetings with Mindshare, 1/3 from reaching out to various other teams (that don't have reps), and 1/3 was me gathering random bits of info
12:50:12 <riecatnor[m]> #link https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/mindshare-committee/procedures/quarterly_report/
12:50:23 <jwf|web> Aha, should have read the docs :)
12:51:50 <jwf|web> I see there is a template - is that text somewhere public? Not sure I am in the HackMD team
12:52:40 <riecatnor[m]> just added you as an admin to the hackmd team
12:52:44 <jwf|web> Cool!
12:53:04 <riecatnor[m]> this link should work
12:53:05 <riecatnor[m]> #link https://hackmd.io/team/mindsharecommittee?nav=overview
12:53:11 <jwf|web> Some of this we will probably have to pick up next time, but I'm keen to hear from other #chairs on what they think
12:53:15 <jwf|web> #chair
12:53:15 <zodbot> Current chairs: Duffy Madeline Máirín Onuralp Peck Sezer bt0 davdunc jwf|web nb pbokoc riecatnor[m] smeragoel
12:54:04 <jwf|web> Cool, I'm in and I see the template now :+1:
12:54:06 <riecatnor[m]> so if you create a new note, there is a quarterly report template you can load
12:54:15 <riecatnor[m]> perfect
12:54:34 <bt0> says forbidden for me
12:54:39 <riecatnor[m]> ok, so let's try to answer just one question today
12:55:12 <riecatnor[m]> @bt0 are you signed into hackmd?
12:55:31 <riecatnor[m]> i see you are not on the admin list, but maybe I didn't have your hackmd screenname
12:56:41 <riecatnor[m]> my one question is: should we still publish the q2 report even tho it is late?
12:57:07 <jwf|web> I think the content is relevant for the archive – I would publish but maybe not push as hard on comms
12:57:09 <luna> yeah
12:57:15 <luna> jwf|web: +1
12:58:04 <riecatnor[m]> Ok, I am going to submit it for publication this week
12:58:20 <jwf|web> :thumbsup:
12:58:35 <riecatnor[m]> the question of the reports long term is still up for discussion :)
12:58:47 <riecatnor[m]> ok those were my topics, no time for repo clean up unfortunately.
12:59:06 <riecatnor[m]> This is my last time running the mindshare meeting, it's been wonderful, my friends
12:59:17 <luna> enjoy your future journeys
12:59:35 <riecatnor[m]> I feel like I might be back one day ;) but not as fcaic
12:59:37 <jwf|web> riecatnor++
12:59:57 <jwf|web> Once a Fedoran, always a Fedoran
13:00:15 <riecatnor[m]> and bt0, if you send your hackmd name I can add you to the mindsahre space
13:00:24 <riecatnor[m]> <3 <3 <3
13:00:27 <bt0> cool
13:00:30 <riecatnor[m]> to you all!
