Action Item Review

• Hackfest/Hackathon readout from EU (Chris) and ongoing planning (Todd)
• Held a Hackathon (competition style with prizes) and a Hackfest (working on Hyperledger codebase, help onboard new people, architectural issues, etc.) in Amsterdam this last week, hosted by ABN AMRO
• Hackathon -- 20 teams of 5-6 each.  12 “geniuses” from HLP technical community, judges including Brian/Chris.  36 hour event.
• Applications ranging from mobile voting app, healthcare records, insurance for delayed flights, fintech,etc.
• Use cases here
• CF:  would be useful to develop “Hackathon in a box”
• Mic:  talked about having a public test network up -- would be great to have a place to showcase the best applications that come out of these
• Hackfest -- roughly 60 attended.  Saw some new participants F2F (SWIFT, Accenture, CLS, Santander, etc.), as well as some more people to STL
• December -- hold a Hackfest?  Should it be in New York?
• General consensus was that New York on December 5th & 6th in advance of Members Summit is doable.  Todd to look for space and connect back up with TSC before confirming anything.
• Chris Ferris to pull together thoughts on snapshot release in Hyperledger Release Taxonomy v0.4 and circulate via email
• VOTE:  Unanimously approved
• Finalize wiki.hyperledger.org migration plan in 10/6 TSC call
• Update since TSC call:  plugins have been installed
• No major objections at this point, start migration early next week.  Need to lock Github wiki prior to migration.
• Plan to leave the pages that Georg has migrated to Dokuwiki and continue to build from there.
• Todd to migrate TSC info, WG owners to migrate their own info.
• Communication Tools (Brian/Todd) - pushed to next week
• Numbering scheme for HIP (Vipin) - pushed to next week
