20:12:25 <cait> #info Hackfest in Marseille will be October 10th - 15th
20:12:29 <cait> thd?
20:12:35 <thd> Koha would have much more of my time now if I could obtain a pro-bono or low cost lawyer for my friend's housing court case in New York City
20:13:06 <thd> Please see my wiki management proposal for details if you might know someone :)
20:13:32 <drojf> i don't think we have a lot of lawyers within the koha team
20:14:04 <thd> Of course it just a personal appeal for the possibility that someone might know someone.
20:14:57 <thd> I am sorry to have to make such an appeal but the welfare of my friend has to come before Koha.
20:15:01 <rangi> #info Chris Cormack, Catalyst IT

20:22:58 <Joubu> pianohacker: just added you to the wiki page to the QA team
20:23:14 <cait> rangi: do you want to get voted in or wait a bit longer?

20:55:30 <cait> thx to everyone volunteering!
20:55:58 <cait> moving on
20:56:03 <cait> ?
20:56:08 <pianohacker> y
20:56:10 <cait> #topic Hackfest in Berlin
20:56:13 <cait> drojf: ?
20:56:31 <drojf> oh
20:56:33 <drojf> well
20:57:05 <drojf> only a little places left
20:57:19 <drojf> seems to be an awesome event ;)
20:57:34 <drojf> can#t reeally say much new things
20:58:24 <Joubu> (just got an answer from fredericd: he is up for 16.05, or 3.20 if it's too late)
20:59:09 <thd> We had not yet voted on rangi's offer.
20:59:30 <thd> ... If I recall correctly.
20:59:32 <drojf> i outsourced the debian packaging workshop to kohacon for the greater good ;)
20:59:39 <cait> we elected, but we can still change
21:00:10 <thd> rangi: Are you still here?
21:01:31 <thd> If rangi is no longer here, perhaps we could notify him and reopen the question at the next meeting.
21:01:50 <cait> next meeting uusally will be after the rlease with the normal schedule
21:01:54 <cait> but we could work something out
21:02:05 <thd> Yes, true.
21:02:24 <cait> i guess one question is on what to do with 3.20
21:02:30 <cait> do we still want to maintain it?
21:03:44 <cait> oh the quiet
21:03:58 <gmcharlt> unless somebody is eager to maintain it, two stable releases seems sufficiently
21:04:03 <Joubu> it should be easier than 16.05
21:04:06 <davidnind> Normally current + previous? older releases if there is a maintainer
21:04:31 <pianohacker> if we drop it, do we still handle security patches?
21:04:36 <pianohacker> it = 3.20
21:05:28 <cait> pianohacker: needs someone to do it
21:05:31 <Joubu> only 2 sounds weird to me, it's only 1 year
21:06:04 <rangi> we normally have 3
21:06:09 <rangi> 18 months
21:06:13 <rangi> ill do 3.20
21:06:18 <rangi> fredericd can do 16.05
21:07:07 <cait> would that be ok with everyone if we voted on that again? Joubu: certain about fredericd?
21:07:23 <andreashm> fine with me
21:07:28 <davidnind> rangi++
21:07:32 <davidnind> fine with me
21:08:04 <cait> #topic Re-Elections
21:08:05 <thd> vote again now
21:08:07 <Joubu> "I was thinking about trying the stable 16.05 version" that's the translatable answer. So I'd say yes

21:10:59 <cait> ikourmou: still with us?
21:11:13 <ikourmou> yep!
21:11:40 <cait> yay1
21:11:41 <cait> :)
21:11:46 <ikourmou> three weeks away...
21:11:58 <ikourmou> we are making the final arrangements
21:12:33 <ikourmou> we seem to have a little problem though lately
21:12:34 <thd`> I guess I was disconnected.  Did I miss the revote?
21:12:57 <ikourmou> more than 250 people registerd
21:13:08 <rangi> whoa!
21:13:13 <rangi> thats a good turnout :)
21:13:17 <cait> whoa indeed
21:13:32 <ikourmou> and the venue we booked will not be enough for all of them
21:13:32 <cait> #info more than 250 people registered
21:13:45 <rangi> are you making them confirm? (so you get a better idea how many will actually show up)
21:13:54 <ikourmou> but, yes, it;s a pleasant headache
21:14:00 <rangi> my guess is if 250 register, 200ish will show
21:14:08 <rangi> based on past experienc
21:14:09 <rangi> e
21:14:12 <pianohacker> thd`: yes: rangi for 3.20 and fredericd for 16.05
21:14:32 <ikourmou> I hope you are right @rangi
21:15:00 <rangi> but it wouldn;t hurt to send out please confirm you are attending emails .. just so you have a better idea :)
21:15:17 <ikourmou> anyway, we have another auditorium available and we will probably stream the whole event there too
21:15:50 <cait> rangi: they send confirm if you don't come emails :)
21:15:52 <cait> sent
21:16:07 <rangi> oh, hmm i dont remember getting one
21:16:12 <ikourmou> also more than 80 people stated that they are going to attend the hackfest
21:16:32 <cait> wow too!
21:16:34 <rangi> that would be great
21:16:35 <drojf> lol wtf
21:16:47 <drojf> do you have room for that? :)
21:16:49 <cait> lots of new devs to be recruited and testers
21:17:09 <rangi> for that many people i reckon we might want to split into a few rooms
21:17:13 <rangi> or it will be too loud
21:17:40 <ikourmou> I'm a little cautious with the last one, thinking that some (or many of them) don;t have a clear picture fo what a hackfest is...
21:17:44 <rangi> beginners room, presentations room, projects room
21:17:45 <rangi> or something
21:18:11 <rangi> the experienced devs could all take turns doing a few hours in the beginners room
21:18:16 <ikourmou> we are going to need your help and experience with this
21:18:16 <rangi> creating new devs :)
21:19:11 <ikourmou> I plan to send an email to the list asking for topics to deal with during the hackfest...
21:20:15 <Joubu> just after the release, we will have hundreds of little bugs to fix :)
21:20:21 <rangi> we will have the debian packaging tutorial .. i think having a room where people can do tutorials, presentations .. then some rooms where people can work
21:20:23 <cait> yep
21:20:27 <rangi> is a good way to do it
21:20:44 <cait> yeah 80 in one room oculd get loud - but nto sure what is doable
21:21:04 <cait> i can help with beginners too - but maybe not with setting up installations
21:22:08 <rangi> i reckon there are enough of us, so that we can take turns
21:22:09 <ikourmou> I would also like to ask the hackfest participants to spend some time dealing with the bugs / enhancements that are important for our library / installation. Do you think it;s ok?
21:22:22 <rangi> i think thats a great idea ikourmou
21:23:02 * cait agrees
21:23:29 <davidnind> Was at a Drupal hackfest in Melbourne last year, over 100 in the room (setup was with 7 or 8 seats at round tables, screen at front), with hackfest volunteers in bright t-shirts working/helping new attendees and hackfest 'manager' keeping to a loose programme
21:23:32 <cait> giving back something to the host... sounds very Koha I think?
21:23:52 <rangi> cait: exactly
21:24:07 <cait> :)
21:24:49 <ikourmou> ok, thanks for the advice and ideas, the organizing committee will surely take them into account.
21:25:01 <davidnind> perhaps more a flexible programme, rather than 'loose'...
21:25:15 <cait> ikourmou: i think we are all very much lookin gforward to the conference - thx for the great work organizing it
21:25:31 <Joubu> ikourmou: feel free to let us know the bug/enh list in advance
21:25:37 <cait> yep
21:25:37 <rangi> ikourmou++
21:25:48 <cait> ikourmou++
21:26:08 <davidnind> ikourmou++
21:26:08 <ikourmou> we might need some volunteers to chair some sessions, please keep that in mind ;-)
21:26:18 <cait> just ask
21:26:25 <indradg> ikourmou++
21:26:35 <ikourmou> ok, thx cait!
21:27:02 <cait> :)
21:27:15 <cait> ok, any more questions kohacon?
21:27:25 <cait> we have some remaining topics on the agenda
21:27:38 <cait> KohaCon17 - no change in proposals, so maybe skip?
21:27:54 <cait> voting process... as we are running late, maybe push that too
21:28:05 <cait> and a vote on the draft rulles for thd grants committee
21:28:14 <cait> is anyone of the funds committee available?
21:28:18 <cait> bag?
21:28:36 <gmcharlt> I'll do it
21:28:41 <cait> ah thx gmcharlt
21:28:48 <bag> :)
21:28:49 <cait> let me change topic
21:29:12 <gmcharlt> ok
21:29:12 <cait> #topic International koha Fund - Draft Rules for THT Grants Committee
21:29:15 <cait> #chair gmcharlt
21:29:15 <huginn> Current chairs: cait drojf gmcharlt
21:29:31 <gmcharlt> #info Minutes of the 19 April 2016 fundraising committee meeting: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Fundraising_Committee_Meeting_19_April_2016
21:29:53 <gmcharlt> During the meeting, we discussed some changes to the draft rules for the grants subcommittee based on feedback at an earlier general IRC meeting
21:30:15 <gmcharlt> #info Changes to draft rules: https://wiki.koha-community.org/w/index.php?title=Fundraising&action=historysubmit&diff=16342&oldid=16169
21:30:22 <gmcharlt> so, to enumerate the changes:
21:31:20 <gmcharlt> - we clarified the wording about contract employees and how they affect the rule that any given organization can have only one member on the subcommittee
21:31:48 <gmcharlt> - we changed quarter to period, as we don't expect to be reviewing grant applications quarterly (at least, not initially)
21:32:12 <gmcharlt> - we fixed a reference
21:33:13 <gmcharlt> #info Current version of grants committee rules: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Fundraising#International_Koha_Fund_-_Grants_Committee
21:33:45 <gmcharlt> so, per the agenda today, I would like to call a community vote on those grant committee draft rules
21:34:12 <gmcharlt> upon a positive vote, they would then be forwarded to THT for their formal assent (although of course they've been following along during the development of the draft)
21:34:52 <gmcharlt> so, before I call the vote, does anybody wish to ask questions or discuss? Out of respect to the length of the meeting, I will keep discussion limited to just five minutes
21:35:07 <gmcharlt> (and if things prove controversial, defer the vote)
21:35:20 <davidnind> gmcharlt++
21:36:56 <bag> hmm looks like no questions - move to vote?
21:37:11 <cait> +1
21:37:14 <gmcharlt> I'll give folks another 30 seconds before calling the vote
21:37:15 <bag> (sorry if I am too quick ;) )
21:37:46 * gmcharlt hums a prestissimo version of the Imperial March from Star Wars
21:38:00 <gmcharlt> and I'm done humming, and the 30 seconds have passed
21:38:16 <bgkriegel_> :)

21:43:26 <gmcharlt> there is another matter to discuss, but given the time, I'll push it out to the next general meeting: changing article 4 to permit majority vote rather than consensus
21:43:34 * gmcharlt hands the meeting back to cait
21:44:04 <cait> ok
21:44:15 <cait> i thnk given the time we will push actions to next
