As promised, I kicked our agenda items forward. Turns out you can do a lot without needing to vote. :)
Our meetbot does some truly awful meeting minutes formatting, but here's the summary of http://me.etin.gs/sugar-meeting/sugar-meeting.minutes.20100711_0446.html: * Local Labs TM applications can't be found, so we'll drop this topic until a Local Lab is indeed blocked by lack of TM permission, at which point they should ping SLOBs (via emailing the slobs and iaep lists with their request - doesn't have to be formal, just needs to be publicly documented somewhere) so we can +1 them. DONE! * Oo4Kids logo display request got 4 +1s from SLOBs, granted. Added to http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Trademark_permissions_granted. APPROVED! * F11+0.88+XO-1.* got permission to use SL infrastructure and get listed on the sidebar. UNBLOCKED! * Broader question: "What are the rights and responsibilities of a SL project?" (Simple answer, but we need to agree on the same simple answer.) NEXT WEEK! (and hitting the list shortly as a separate thread). * Question from Kevin Mark: "Who should be the deciding organization for who determines what version of sugar is used in the field?" (Hitting the list shortly as a separate discussion thread, but no action really needed - just a good point to bring up.) What else do people consider the most pressing topics to the future of SL? How are we doing? Are we reaching our goals? (What are they?) These should be the agenda items we discuss. --Mel ------- 04:56:33 Topic: Trademark applications from Local Labs 04:56:37 LINK mchua http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2010-June/011237.html 04:56:54 INFO mchua We have trademark usage applications from the following places: 04:57:02 INFO mchua * Colombia * Paraguay Educa * Argentina * Chile * Peru * DC 04:57:14 INFO mchua We have been blocked by lack of links to the actual applications. 04:58:29 INFO mchua Walter says the words "TM REQUEST" should be in the subject lines for this, and that they should have been sent to list, but there are no emails from these countries with that subject on a public list (that I could find). 05:36:54 INFO mchua Mel can't find subject lines with "TM REQUEST" in them in either iaep or slobs archives 05:37:42 AGREED mchua This agenda item is being dropped, but people are encouraged (very very encouraged!) to resend their local labs' TM applications to SLOBs and cc iaep, and we'll get to them then. So if this is blocking you, please pipe up with a quick email! --------- 05:37:55 Topic: Ooo4Kids logo display request 06:17:35 LINK mchua http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2010-June/011240.html 06:21:10 INFO mchua Main Oo4Kids contact is Eric Bachard, eric.bachard at free.fr 06:21:21 INFO mchua Oo4kids requests permission to place our logo on their "partners" page 06:21:56 AGREED mchua YES (motion passes, Bernie, Walter, Adam and Mel +1, no -1) 06:21:59 LINK mchua http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2010-June/011263.html 06:22:11 INFO mchua Added to "trademark permissions granted" list 06:22:14 LINK mchua http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Trademark_permissions_granted -------------- 06:23:24 Topic: F11+0.88+XO-1.* as a SL project 06:23:47 INFO mchua The broader topic under discussion here is "what is a SL project?" (as in, what does it entail, what does it mean for a project to be a SL project - rights and responsibilities)? 06:23:58 INFO mchua This is a simple question, but we need to actually agree on the answer. 06:24:05 LINK mchua http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2010-June/011241.html 06:27:11 LINK mchua http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2010-July/011278.html 06:27:26 LINK mchua http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2010-July/011284.html 06:29:04 INFO mchua It was agreed last week that Paraguay Educa should list the F11+0.88+Xo-1.* project on the wiki sidebar. 06:29:07 LINK mchua http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Deployment_Team/Sugar-0.88 06:37:31 INFO mchua It was also agreed that the project should have full use of SL Infrastructure resources. 06:39:55 INFO mchua So I'm going to make it a quick agenda item, draft a motion and see if we can get discussion/consensus/approval around it. 06:40:36 LINK mchua http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Labs/Project_Guidelines 06:41:36 INFO mchua the current page asays projects start as SIGs, then apply to SLOBs for project status. 06:42:39 ACTION mchua mchua to shoot this page out to the iaep list and ask if anyone thinks it needs more - if it's not blocking anything, we can skip it for now, I think. ------------- 06:42:58 Topic: Other business 06:47:34 INFO mchua We have a question for SLOBs from Kevin Mark. 06:47:34 LINK mchua #link 06:47:34 INFO mchua Kevin Mark: I was confused about the hierarchy of who should be the deciding organization for who determines what version of sugar is used in the field.
