If an official project team holds a regular official team meeting,
then it needs to be in a public IRC channel with published logs
(either the channel log or a log specific to the meeting).

We've not generally required this of auxiliary meetings for official
teams. Sub-team meetings and unofficial/ad-hoc team discussions over
conference call or video chat media have been tolerated in the past.
But for an official team meeting (if the team regularly holds one)
we've stuck to the quoted expectation as a requirement as far as I'm
aware.

In my opinion, IRC is the best place to run meetings in OpenStack
community, however we need to acknowledge that not everyone agrees and some
functional teams or sub-teams prefer some other tools, including
video-conference.

What remains critical to me is:
- wherever you run the meeting, make it publicly reachable, accessible,
visible.
- if you run the meeting outside of IRC, take and share notes on public
channels.

In general: decisions shouldn't not be taken during meetings, but rather on
Gerrit or Mailing-lists. Otherwise you're fragmenting the community between
those who can attend the meeting and those who can't.

My 2 cents,

[openstack-dev] [tc][all] meetings outside IRC

2018-10-13 Thread Mohammed Naser
Hi everyone:

I was going over our governance documents, more specifically this section:

"All project meetings are held in public IRC channels and recorded."

Does this mean that all official projects are *required* to hold their
project meetings over IRC?  Is this a hard requirement or is this
something that we're a bit more 'lax about?  Do members of the
community feel like it would be easier to hold their meetings if we
allowed other avenues (assuming this isn't allowed?)

Looking forward to hearing everyone's comments.

Thanks
Mohammed

[openstack-dev] [tc][all] Discussing goals (upgrades) with community @ office hours

2018-10-13 Thread Mohammed Naser
Hi everyone!

It looks like we're not going to be able to have a TC meeting every 2
weeks as I had hoped for, the majority of the TC seems to want to meet
once every month.  However, I wanted to ask if the community would be
interested in taking one of the upcoming office hours to discuss the
current community goals, more specifically upgrades.

It's been brought to my attention by some community members that they
feel like we've been deciding goals too early without having enough
maturity in terms of implementation.  In addition, it seems like the
final implementation way is not fully baked in by the time we create
the goal.  This was brought up in the WSGI goal last time and it looks
like there is some oddities at the moment with "do we implement our
own stuff?" "do we use the new oslo library?" "is the library even
ready?"

I wanted to propose one of the upcoming office hours to perhaps invite
some of the community members (PTL, developers, anyone!) as well as
the TC with goal champions to perhaps discuss some of these goals to
help everyone get a clear view on what's going on.

Does this seem like it would be of interest to the community?  I am
currently trying to transform our office hours to be more of a space
where we have more of the community and less of discussion between us.

Regards,
Mohammed

Thanks Lance for working on this. Current version lgtm. I would like to see 
some operators feedback also if  this standard policy name format is clear and 
easy understandable.
