I've seen this at work quite a bit.  I've also seen an elegant solution 
that works moderately well.  The minutes of the meeting are taken in 
realtime during the meeting by whoever will take it, and this is shared 
with the participants in realtime.  This way errors in the minutes are 
instantly corrected.  When the meeting is done you just save and publish 
the minutes and you are done.


Realtime collaboration could involve any number of mechanisms.  I don't 
know if google docs supports it, but I imagine Wave would.  There might 
be other mechanisms as well.  Webex/GotoMeeting/etc are usually the 
methods employed in the business world.  There might be an FOSS equivalent.


I think this should be purely up to the council's discretion, but I 
wanted to offer this as a suggestion.


I'm not a fan of slacker marks in the first place - but, if you have to 
have them then I'd do it in a way so as to avoid creating a negative 
incentive for volunteering to do the work in the first place.

Hash: SHA1

Hi.

The new Gentoo Council will hold a special introductory meeting this
Wednesday, 14/7 at 19H00 UTC. A regular meeting will be held on Monday
26/7 at 19H00 UTC. We'll be sending in the next few days an email about
that meeting, so please don't reply to this email about issues regarding
that meeting.
We know this is a very short notice meeting, but as we won't be able to
have a regular meeting before 26/7, we don't want to wait that long
before we have a public meeting and a chance to address the community.
We ask all members involved and or interested in the required-use and
- --as-needed discussions to show up to address any issues that may be
raised during the meeting. We also ask anyone interested in sharing
concerns about issues that should be addressed by the council in this
term to show up.


Gentoo Council 14/7 meeting goals:

 * have the first public meeting of the new council
 * set some base rules for the operation of the new council
 * allow council members to present issues to work on this term
 * listen to the community to check whether there are any issues it
wants to bring to the attention of the council
 * continue discussion about required-use and --as-needed to prepare a
vote in the 26/7 meeting


Gentoo Council 14/7 meeting agenda:

 * allow all members to show up (5 min)
 * select the probable date for the monthly meetings (5 min)
 * discuss desired model of operation (15 min)
   - using bugs to track issues
   - have a section on all meetings to check the bugs status
   - ability to have 2nd monthly / impromptu meetings when required
   - secretary / meeting chair
 * allow council members to present issues to be addressed in this term
(15 min)
 * listen to the community to see if there are any issues it would like
to see the council address in this term (10 min)
 * require-use discussion (10 min)
 * --as-needed discussion (10 min)
 * AOB (5 min)


For the Gentoo Council,

I'd like to push a small thing to your agenda. :)

Please set some rule to post meeting summaries on time. Something
similar to the slacker mark would be fine. Feel free to come up with
something more creative if you wish.

Rationale: Meeting summary for 20091012 is to be completed. Meeting
summary for 20100419 is also to be completed, and all following
council meetings lack summaries. This makes it hard to follow the
council's work.
