New Council Time!

1) Roll Call
Present: Daniel, Jonas, Travis, Georg
Delayed: Larma

2) Welcome
Jonas welcomes Travis (moparisthebest) and Larma as fresh faces to Council.

3) Chair Election
Council is required to have a chairperson to act as head of the committee, and 
to prepare an agenda for meetings and to lead them; the Chair should also 
ensure a replacement in cases of expected absence. Jonas asks for volunteers - 
Daniel says that Jonas did an excellent job for the previous term and would 
happily vote for him should he volunteer again, but will step forward himself 
if not - Jonas would prefer less responsibility this term. Travis and Georg 
compliment Jonas's exceptional management - Jonas graciously accepts the 
praise. Georg wishes he could spare the time and commitment, but is too 
familiar with reality.
With a lack of other volunteers, and in true democratic style, everybody votes 
for Daniel as the one and only option - Daniel humbly accepts the honour. Jonas 
is happy to aid in a peaceful transition where needed, and offers to continue 
chairing this meeting as Daniel is likely unprepared - Daniel approves.

4) Board Liaison
Jonas notes that someone should act as liaison with Board, which includes being 
subscribed to their mailing list and attending their meetings - Jonas is happy 
to continue in this role, but will step aside should anybody else want it - 
Daniel could take over this task as well, but is happy to leave it with Jonas. 
Everyone votes for Jonas.

5) Meeting Schedule
Jonas is happy with the current slot (Wednesdays, 1600 UTC; following European 
DST) and checks that still works for everyone else - there are no objections.

[Date of next: 2021-12-08 1600 UTC]

6) AOB
Jonas will poke iTeam regarding room affiliations; has sent an email to the 
Council mailing list - everyone should check they receive it, and complain (to 
iTeam) if there are problems.

Jonas (Council) will poke Jonas (Editor) to take a look at pending Last Calls; 
one is already queued, which should start before the next meeting.

7) Close
Thanks everyone, Jonas, Jonas, thanks much.

Jonas recommends that Daniel arrange a new Spreadsheet of Doom.


Kev notes that Board Liaison was originally the Council Chair, not a selected 
person, but doubts anyone cares too much.
