Agenda

The following is a break down of the entire meeting by agenda items.

Team approval, what needs to be done?

  • Apparently nothing needs to be done on this front, we have a mailing list set-up for members, a launchpad team and it is only LoCo Teams that need to be approved by the CC and TB. [Log: 17:21]

<gnomefreak> from what i gathered from last CC meeting yesterday only loco teams need to be approved since we are not loco teams we have nothing to worry about.

Outcome: "Approved"

Adding the IRC Channel to the logging list.

  • Need to speak to fabio about getting a logbot added to the channel, John to organise. [Log: 17:29]

<gnomefreak> i will get up with him after the meeting

Outcome: "In progress"

Wiki procedures. Who does what?

* The layout of Wiki needs to reflect two distinct user groups, the triagers and the reporters. Freddy to make progress with. * We need to split up Firefox and Thunderbird and then have sub-categories for their related plugins/extensions etc. [Log: 17:36]

<Admiral_Chicago> i don't think me neither. We need to look at this like a new user / person interested in the team.
...
<Admiral_Chicago> no, that's what I mean. We should do a BugResources type page that will help users triage bugs.

Outcome: "In progress"

Report rejection procedures

When and why should we reject reports.

* When a bug is a 1 time crash report, non-reproducible bugs, distinguish between Firefox and Website code (a bug is not looking pretty), not enough info(see below). [Log: 17:56]

<gnomefreak> if the user attaches crash report leave it open
<Admiral_Chicago> non-reproduceable, in-responsive, non-enough information (after asking for more of course) but that goes into the previous one

Outcome: "Approved"

Time period to automatically reject reports

* 30-60 Days to respond after a request for further information, else the report is rejected, however reporter can reopen if needs be. [Log: 17:48]

<Admiral_Chicago> as a general if your team member asks for more information and it doesn't get meet, please close the bug report. I've seen that not happen on a few, probably because we weren't formed yet.

Outcome: "Approved"

More members needed

  • Freddy to shout in UWN28 about the team. [Log: 17:51]
  • Email kubuntu-users, ubuntu-users, devl, bugmail to see if we can draw in some new recruits. [Log: 17:53]

<Admiral_Chicago> I can put it in UWN 28.
...
<gnomefreak> send emails to Ml about the team with some links
<Admiral_Chicago> team members are lists: kubuntu users, ubuntu users, devl, bugmail for more members

Outcome: "Approved"

Mozilla Team Artwork

Do we need/want a logo?

  • Idea to merge Firefox Logo with Ubuntu Logo.. [Log: 18:02]
  • Idea to mess with the Dinosaur a little, make it a little more Ubuntuised. (Both need a spec if sent to Artwork Team). [Log: 18:02]

Outcome: "Approved"

Team icon is currently the Firefox icon

  • Ask David about ability to change LP.net Icon. Maybe use a small version of new logo?. [Log: 18:06]

<Admiral_Chicago> we can do many types of logos and play with them
 we can take a poll or something
 for LP, I think David is the one that can change that

Outcome: "In progress"

Produce high priority bug fix list.

  • Alex to create a high priority fix page, once wiki restructure is complete. [Log: 18:15]

<Admiral_Chicago> Yawner: do you want to do the page? Not now, after we restructure the wiki
...
<Yawner> yes ok

Outcome: "Approved"

Conclusion

The meeting was successful, we managed to establish a number of key points towards the formation of a successful team. From this meeting we are looking to expand the team by trying to recruit on Ubuntu user mailing lists, we also set in motion a set of concentrate procedures for bug rejection. We also set out the specifications for the future artwork and for the future of the wiki also.
