[board-discuss] [4.0] Review
Hi to all board members, as 4.0.0 is rolled out there should be a review about what happened: The good points, the bad points What can we do in the same way, what in a better way the next time? What is needed to get it better? A discussion may cause some budget thoughts, community handling, marketing concepts, Whiteboards, Easy Hacks etc. IMHO the board should be the starting point and the lead of such a discussion to give it a direction for the whole community. What do you think? -- Grüße k-j
Re: [board-discuss] [4.0] Review
Hello K-J, thanks for your email. You are right but I don't think it will be formal. However we must do it one way or another.

Hi, Thorsten Behrens wrote on 2013-02-12 15:40: Even more specifically, development build hardware. For the gerrit/jenkins setup, we need a (small) build farm. ok, I have added 8.000 € budget proposal for development hardware onto the budget in WebDAV, which is used as basis for my regular mailings. :) Florian

Hi Jonathan, Jonathan Aquilina wrote on 2013-02-13 17:29: Regarding the build farm how many Linux machines are we looking for. I am running some tests and I am on a virtual server provider called linode. I am building on their 512mb virtual private servers and they are quite quick and 16 euros a month. the initial proposal is here: http://www.mail-archive.com/board-discuss@documentfoundation.org/msg02815.html Let's move the technical discussion onto the website lists, where it's better suited, IMHO.

Re: [board-discuss] Travel Expenses
Hello Italo, Italo Vignoli wrote on 2013-01-29 14:29: I will travel to Oman in midi February, for the Free Open Source Software Conference (http://fossc-oman.net/). Flight and lodging are covered by the organization, but I will incur in some expenses for local transportation (mostly taxis) and meals. In addition, I will spend the following amounts for my trip to the US in late March, based on a thorough research of the least expensive options: sorry for my late reply, and thanks so much for all your activity! I assume you are talking about the decision # 20121220-01 from https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/TDF/BoD_Decisions, right? (budget of 2,000 € for Italo Vignoli's trip to POSSCON and LibrePlanet) So, for the Oman trip there has been no budget approved at all so far, it is only for POSSCON and LibrePlanet, as far as I can so. For the ease of voting, I propose to: 1. Vote on having a budget of 2.500 € in total for your trips to POSSCON, LibrePlanet and FOSSC Oman, 2. thereby revoking decision # 20121220-01 Did I get this right, does this make sense, or did I miss some requests? Please confirm, then we can start voting. ;) Florian

So, for the Oman trip there has been no budget approved at all so far, it is only for POSSCON and LibrePlanet, as far as I can so. For the ease of voting, I propose to: OMAN should be mostly covered, although I have discovered by digging into the country website that I might be asked to pay for the enry VISA (around 40 Euro, but this is not clear), plus I will have to cover taxi transfers and meals, and I do not know - because I did not get answers to my questions - to which extent the organization covers them (might be all covered, but I will discover it once there). The US trip could prove more expensive than planned because of taxes on lodging, which are difficult to understand as they are not shown on the hotel rates, and other possible extras. I have booked hotels different from the event suggested ones, as I have found cheaper options (but unfortunately not so cheap). I hope to spend the lowest figure, of course, but I prefer to ask in advance than to create a problem afterwards. 1. Vote on having a budget of 2.500 € in total for your trips to POSSCON, LibrePlanet and FOSSC Oman, 2. thereby revoking decision # 20121220-01 Did I get this right, does this make sense, or did I miss some requests? Please confirm, then we can start voting. ;) I confirm, and I will abstain from the vote for obvious reasons. -- Italo Vignoli - italo.vign...@gmail.com mob +39.348.5653829 - VoIP 5316...@messagenet.it skype italovignoli - gtalk italo.vign...@gmail.com
