  • <jledbetter> Ah ha!

    <lexvegas> yes, I am.

    <jledbetter> Great. Smile :)

    <jledbetter> We've added a few folks to the administering of the account so that we can spread the paperwork a bit.

    <jledbetter> What do you think? Expire after a year good?

    <lexvegas> As in a year of inactivity?

    <jtatum> well, that's what it's set for, so hopefully it's good Smile :)

    <jledbetter> I think after a year, you have to say "Yes, I want to be a member still."

    <jtatum> lexvegas: when folks sign up, it defaults to expiration in a year. sometime before you expire from the team you get an email like "if you want to stay on this team, click [here]"

    <jtatum> and you're renewed. pretty simple, helps us keep the counts to people who are really still users.

    <lexvegas> sounds good. that makes sense to do that.

    <jledbetter> Great. Was that what the revisit was, jtatum?

    <jtatum> i'm not sure. it's done though. i never did find a way to change existing users. i think it is doable with something like selenium

    <jledbetter> Ok.

    <jledbetter> #topic Discuss leadership options/elections

    <jledbetter> Drat. Guesses aren't always perfect Wink ;) Pardon my n00bness but haven't messed with the bot before.

    <jledbetter> jtatum, Do you know what this one was about? I missed last meeting Smile :)

    <lexvegas> totally forgiven Smile :) that would have been my guess too

    <jtatum> yeah. there isn't a real elected leadership in the va loco. basically we need to do nominations and run a real election.

    <jtatum> launchpad has the facilities for this so, it's probably the best option

    <jledbetter> The poll?

    <jtatum> yes

    <jtatum> for nominations, we can solicit them via email or some such

    <jledbetter> Haven't used that for voting before. I guess folks interested will put a blurb on their wiki pages?

    <jledbetter> How many? 3?

    <jtatum> VA is really small. i reckon 1

    <jtatum> it's unusual to see more than one

    <jledbetter> Reckon, eh? Wink ;) Alright, 1. I'll send out an email to get names.

    <jtatum> let's figure out dates now

    <jtatum> so the email can say nominations due by <date> and election will be from <date> to <date>

    <jledbetter> I'll email within the week. So, hm.

    <lexvegas> Wednesday or Friday of next week for end of nominations?

    <jledbetter> I like that.

    <Jagged> ah hi

    <jledbetter> And close of voting by the next meeting so we can announce? Looks like it's March 7

    <Jagged> had to make dinner

    <jledbetter> Jagged, Howdy Smile :) No worries. As long as you brought enough for us all.

    <Jagged> I made 4 burgers

    <jledbetter> veggie?

    <lexvegas> maybe give a day of padding in there, so close at the end of the 5th?

    <jledbetter> lexvegas, Great idea. * marks it down *

    <jledbetter> So, nominations due by 2/16. Voting 2/18-3/5. Announcement: 3/7

    <jledbetter> Work for everyone?

    <jtatum> awesome!

    <lexvegas> sounds good!

    <jtatum> that's great

    <lexvegas> maybe throw in a reminder halfway through voting on the mailing lists

    <jledbetter> Sure, I can do that. That way I can attach bribery--I mean...

    <lexvegas> haha

    <jledbetter> Wink ;)

    <jledbetter> Anything else re: leadership options/elections?

    <jtatum> can we nominate others? Smile :)

    <jledbetter> They need to agree, in my opinion.

    <jledbetter> It's flattering though to be nominated.

    <jledbetter> Anything else before the next topic?

    <jtatum> negative

    <lexvegas> nope

    <jledbetter> Alrighty.

    <jledbetter> [topic] VirginiaTeam mailing list

  • <jledbetter> jtatum or Jagged, do you know what we needed to cover on this?

    <Jagged> uhhh

    <Jagged> do not remember

    <jtatum> who added that one?

    <jledbetter> Jagged, I think. If I'm reading this history right.

    <Jagged> I think we took care of that though

    <Jagged> because we enacted the annual renewal

    <jledbetter> Sweet.

    <Jagged> I've been useless the past two months Sad :(

    <jledbetter> Then that's all of the topics on the agenda that I see.

    <jledbetter> Jagged, I've been quite busy too. It's all good Smile :)

    <jtatum> no worries Jagged Smile :)

    <jtatum> short meeting is good Smile :)

    <jledbetter> That it is.

    <jledbetter> Unless there's anything else, I'll close the meeting and we can chit chat.

    <jledbetter> Alright!
