+1 on trying something new and separating this out. And as Bertrand mentions +1 
for leaving it up to the Board to decide what type of committee structure they 
would like to see in place.

Thanks

I am +1 on the spin out; I am -1 on ComDev specifying a President's cmmt as the 
form of the spin out.

not sure if a president's committee is the best way of getting this done or 
whether it would be
better to have it as part of comdev. But better do something than nothing at 
all. Plus, we can fix
stuff later so I'll leave it to those wanting to drive it to figure it out.

Re: [VOTE] ComDev supports formation of D committee

2019-05-06 Thread Myrle Krantz
Hi Steph,

Great to see you on the list!  We've created a new mailing list for this:
Just send an email to diversity-subscr...@apache.org.  Join us!  Introduce
yourself!  It's a public mailing list, so you can see the work we're
already doing.  One of the things you'll find there is a proposal for the
board to create a D president's committee.  The board will be voting on
it at the May 15th board meeting.

My proposal here is intended to gauge comdev's position on it to inform
that decision.  I'll be capturing binding and non-binding votes when I
close the vote at the end of the week, so feel free to give your own +1 or
-1 on this!

Best Regards,
Myrle

Inviting external people in Slack (Single Channel Guests)

2019-05-06 Thread Christofer Dutz
Hi all,

I have read that it’s possible to invite external people in slack, however I 
can’t seem to find any documentation on how to do so.

Could someone here please send me some information or pointers on how to invite 
externals to a given channel?

I have read in the slack documentation that only workspace admins can do that …

Chris

+1, though I would leave it to the Board to decide which form of
committee is best.
