Hi Everyone,


I'll try making it to the meeting but I doubt I'll make it as I'm currently
in an area with bad internet access so I'll read the logs. Thanks.

At the moment the issue with Freenode requires all of us to register before we 
can speak.

This impacts new people.  It makes their joining as complicated as any other 
service with registration requirements.

As D. Joe has observed, if we had our people watching, we could notice new 
people to let them speak.  We would need to enable this, and somehow cover the 
different time zones.  As we don’t have enough coverage now to answer the 
simplest questions from the people we have, we would need some commitment.  
That would be the next step in that plan.

I don’t know of any other service we could use that doesn’t require some sort 
of registration.

We might set up an IRC server ourselves, but then we take on the defence 
problem that Freenode does for us.

We do have a Jabber server, but I don’t know if it has been attacked in the 
same way.

Just a reminder that we are meeting tomorrow (Thursday, 10 May 2012)
at 21UTC/17EST in #sugar-meeting on irc.freenode.net

By way of background, I wanted to share the discussion on
#sugar-meeting re Local Labs:

walterbendericarito: did you see my recap?
icarito walterbender, yes up to where you mentioned mifos
walterbenderthat is as far as I got
walterbendermifos is the other project that is looking into setting
up a parallel org
icarito then I glanced at mifos and asked how would the local labs
concept fit into this new org model
walterbendericarito: when we create new co, we could do it with
local labs in mind from the start...
walterbendericarito: part of the problem is that SFC has no such
structure or the ability to create it
walterbendericarito: and new co can subsume the liability without
having it leak to the other SFC projects
walterbendericarito: the collective nature of the SFC naturally
makes it more difficult to take risks as mistakes can impact every
project
walterbenderof course we would be in a similar position in new co re
one local lab creating havoc for all the others, but at least it stays
in the family
kaametza_   hi walter, when you refer to a new co you mean to
incorporate like a NGO? US based?
[INFO]  2 matches for “kaametza”: [kaametza, kaametza_]
walterbenderkaametza_: not sure... looking into the possibilities...
but that is the obvious path
icarito i thought the idea of joining the SFC was to avoid having to
create an org ourselves
kaametza_   the goal would be to associate all local labs?
kaametza_   I mean there are incorporated local labs already like 
colombia
icarito but if our need for decentralization does not fit into the
SFC model then maybe a mixed model is acceptable for the SFC?
walterbendericarito that was part of my initial motivation, and it
has served the project well in general
walterbendericarito: but we have needs beyond what the SFC can do
keynote2k   walterbender: I didn't see your recap
keynote2k   I just received about twenty lines of backlogged chat 
all at once
walterbenderkeynote2k: sorry... and I lost the back log...
walterbenderkeynote2k: my machine crashed
icarito walterbender, keynote2k I have the backlog one sec
icarito keynote2k: walterbender to summarize where we are... it
looks like a distributed organizational model is difficult if not
impossible for the SFC to manage from within.
icarito so in brief, in a discussion we tony, we talked about the
possibility of setting up a new org to handle that aspect of things
icarito SFC would still be the home for the project
icarito new org would be the home for the things that need to augment
the project in the field
icarito new org could be set up to be distributed and global
icarito this is a path another project is also pursuing
keynote2k   yes, that's correct
|--Ariel_Calzada has left freenode (Quit: Leaving.)
walterbenderwhat I didn't go on to say is that from the SFC POV,
we'd have Sugar communities, but not Sugar Local Labs
walterbenderand whatever New Co did vis-a-vis Local Labs would be
independent of the SFC
keynote2k   ok, I'm up to speed.
keynote2k   icarito: what do you think?
icarito keynote2k, one area that concerns us is we have some projects
we'd like to get some help to fund
icarito specifically at this point we are working on some development
which will require for us to pilot
icarito we have a local community
icarito that has other projects as well
keynote2k   what is your current fund raising plan?
kaametza_   we have a miexed strategy
icarito we are looking at various options, one of which is the
possibility of doing crowdfunding
kaametza_   we are appling to grants and also looking for local
resources from gov
keynote2k   so, if we went with the structure walterbender is
suggesting, you could continue to pursue those avenues, right?
kaametza_   still as icarito says fundraising seems to be the real
option for the nature of the project
icarito resources from the government will involve going into a
bidding process and for that we are looking at options from local
partners (as you know, we are not incorporated)
kaametza_   this is not easy to put together as increases project
overhead and doesnt necesarly make it sustainable
icarito currently some members of the community have directly funded
the development but for actually deploying things seem more
complicated
kaametza_   we would appriciate some help putting together a fund 
raising plan
icarito we think

 If possible, I'd appreciate if you could add to the agenda discussion of
 the amended FSA with Conservancy.   I'm not on the SLOBs myself, so I
 can't propose this as an agenda item officially, but since it's been
 pending since early November, I'd appreciate if action could be taken.

 These days nobody seems to be using it and the dates for recurring
 meetings fell out of sync. To avoid confusing people, shall we
 
 1. Delete the calendar and remove all references to it from the wiki? or
 
 2. Start using it again for all meetings of all teams?

3. Some time ago I've set up a  DAViCal instance on sunjammer. It works,
but it needs to be integrated with our user database to provide
single-sign-on.

I've been using this as my personal calendar for a few months. Ask me
for an account if you'd like to preview it.

 5. Mostly Unmodified-Must Ask

 **(This zero point was mentioned by Chris Ball actually last I didn't record
 what he might of actually titled this, this was the words I was using)

 A few themes I took away from the meeting are as follows:

 Encourage vs. Discourage

 Unmodified vs. Modified

 Logo Program-With Gradations of involvement(Possibly 3 to 4 Different Logos
 for Partners depending on

     level of involvement. Possible to have one Logo to show partners
 with Modified Sugar Code)

 My thought would be if we can focus on the Encourage and Logo Program
 Themes, I think it will help us come
 up with final wording that displays Sugar Labs as a Proactive/
 Inclusive/Collaborative Partner.

 A suggestion to achieve this would be to:

  Quickly come up with the names for the labeling program along
 with what level of involvement and/or unmodified/modified Sugar Code that
 involves.
 We in turn need to work on Logo's but are not necessary to written copy
 **Sean can you post a draft outline of Labeling Program to begin
 discussion**


 With a Labeling/Logo Description in place by default those definitions will
 answer many of the use cases. We can then take
 the January 15 2010 Draft and build that language around Labeling Program
 with an aim to use encouraging/inclusive
 and clearer language.

 These two portions in particular seem somewhat contradictory in
 language after reading them and
 comparing them to notes and meeting discussion. Hopefully Labeling Program
 can absorb these two
 parts and allow for a clear differentiation in use cases and proper
 interaction with Sugar Labs to
 benefit the parties involved.

 2a.
 To refer to the Sugar Labs software in substantially unmodified form
 substantially unmodified means built from
 the source code provided by the Sugar Labs project, possibly with minor
 modifications including but not limited to:
 the enabling or disabling of certain features by default, translations into
 other languages, changes required for
 compatibility with a particular operating system distribution, or the
 inclusion of bug-fix patches). All such minor
 modifications must be released under an approved license.

 **It seems to say you can use with some minor modifications but then says
 all minor modifications must be
 released with approved license***

 3.
 You may use the Sugar Labs Marks as part of the name of a product designed
 to work with Sugar Labs, so long
 as the name as a whole (via its other components) clearly and unambiguously
 distinguishes the product from Sugar
 Labs software itself, and the general presentation of the product does not
 imply any official association or identity
 with Sugar Labs. Because it would be awkward to attach a trademark symbol to
 a portion of a larger name whose
 other portions might themselves be trademarked, the requirement to display
 the symbol is waived for this circumstance.

 ***It would seem if the Sugar Labs Marks were part of the name of a product
 that would indicate that there is a
 perceived official relationship or identity to Sugar Labs which then
 contradicts with the next statement***

 Example: If I trademark JT Linux and then sell a product JT Linux with
 Sugar on Board from the reading above
 I'm confused if I could do that or not. From the meeting my understanding is
 that I could.

Just a quick reminder that we will be having a Sugar Oversight Board
meeting tomorrow (Friday 18 Dec) at 15UTC (10EST) on irc.freenode.net
#sugar-meeting. Please join us. We will be wrapping up our discussion
on Sugar on a Stick and launching into discussions about our trademark
policy, our means of working with the Software Freedom Conservancy,
and some infrastructure proposals.

The minutes from our last meeting are here:

http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Oversight_Board/Meeting_Minutes-2009-12-11

Note that freenode has been under a denial of service attack this
week, causing some problems maintaining connections. If we end up
needing to switch to another server for the meeting, I will send a
note out to the list.

regards.

Nitpicky code lawyering may in fact be necessary, but can we also get 
very clear summaries of our motivations understandable by all?

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing#Good_Licenses%27s

(EG. if we are being ask to vote on the above No Discrimination Against 
Persons or Groups etc to celebrate the holiday season's goodwill 
towards all that's fine, but concision/clarity would help :-)

 * Further discussion of policy for using Sugar trademark
