Today we held the first IRC meeting! The full transcript is here: http://meetlog.archivist.info/
The agenda, updated with discussion and vote outcomes, is here: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Meeting201306 The meeting format is described here: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MeetingsOnIRC Briefly, the decisions we made were: * At the Monthly IRC Meetings there should be a Moderator and a Secretary. * The Moderator keeps things moving forward and updates the channel topic with the current phase of the meeting ("DISCUSSING agenda item X", "VOTING on agenda item X"). cradek was the Moderator at this meeting. * The Secretary keeps track of the outcome of decisions, updates the Wiki page with these outcomes, and sends out this email that you're reading now. Seb was the Secretary at this meeting. * Agenda items should be concrete proposals, not vague discussion points. * Each agenda item is limited to 15 minutes of discussion at the monthly IRC meetings. If we don't reach consensus in that time, we'll Table the item and discuss it more in the usual channels (non-meeting IRC channels, mailing lists, forums), and try to reach consensus at a future Monthly IRC Meeting. * The next meeting will be on Saturday July 27 at 16:00 UTC * Seb will be the Release Manager for the 2.6 release. * We all agreed we want the new RTOS work to be part of the 2.6 release. We also talked about, but did not reach a decision on, these items: * Should we disband the Board of Directors? * How do we select a Moderator and Secretary for these IRC meetings? * Should we move our git repo from git.linuxcnc.org to github? * Should we split out HAL and RTAPI and the IPC mechanism (currently NML) from the main LinuxCNC project/repo? * What does it mean to "reach consensus" on an agenda topic in the Monthly IRC Meeting? If we all agree and the vote is unanimous it's easy, but what do we do if it's not unanimous? The next meeting will be on Saturday July 27 at 16:00 UTC on #linuxcnc-meet on FreeNode. See you all there! -- 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
