Items of discussion

  • The chairs and vice chairs for projects.
    • There is precedence for projects having these positions.
    • The security team is also a something similar already.
    • The desire is to have a primary/secondary point of contact so that communication to projects is well defined.
    • The communities should be handling technical requests on chat and mailing lists.
      • The CA's refer tech requests to the chat and mailing list.
    • This role would be more higher level and/or process requests such as press requests or validating the learning materials.
    • Maybe someone who can handle marketing requests?
    • It sounds like that we will direct things like this to the TSC and the maintainers of the projects.
      • Projects should keep a maintainer's list in their repo and/or the wiki.
  • Lifecycle committee update.
    • Set up a wiki page for the effort.
    • Published a set of proposals that got some reaction and feedback.
    • The wiki comments is where the discussion is happening.
    • The response is good and lots of people are participating.
    • Please jump on the wiki and check out the discussion.
    • Suggested that each proposal break out into a child page to focus the discussion on each proposal.
  • The SIGs are creating work products
    • Discussion about the governance and gating of the publishing of those work products.
    • If they are publishing something that would appear to be "official" they should bring to the TSC.
    • But other work products shouldn't have to be gated.
    • The discussion to be taken offline and we should define what is and what isn't a work product that requires further review and approval.
    • There is a desire to clarify this so that we're all on the same page about the process of publishing HL related content.
    • Proposal coming for anything that is technical in nature must be reviewed and approved by the TSC or delegated reviewers.
