One of the big discussions we had at the LinuxCNC Hackfest in Wichita concerned how the project is governed: how are the big decisions made, and who makes them? In a lively and amicable discussion involving most of the attendees, we decided to try this:
Anyone who has a concrete proposal that they want to put before the project decision-making process should write it down as an agenda item on a wiki page created for this purpose. Once per month, anyone who wants to help make decisions about the month's accumulated issues will meet on IRC and discuss the proposals. It is hoped that consensus will be reached. Decisions will be recorded and communicated to non-attendees via the wiki and email. The first meeting is this coming Saturday, June 29, at 16:00 GMT. This time and date was picked by the Hackfest attendees as a compromise to minimize grogginess, as we are spread across at least 12 hours worth of time zones. Preliminary details are here, to be fleshed out as needed: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MeetingsOnIRC The first meeting's agenda is here, please add anything you think you need an official project decision about: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Meeting201306 I would appreciate it if someone with a reliable irc recording robot would provide a transcript of the meeting. Any volunteers? See you all there, comrades! -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
