Items discussed
ITEM: XDC2019 sponsor invoicing No updates yet ACTIONS: Eric to keep poking Intel STATUS: Pending ITEM: X.org/freedesktop.org domain status Lyude poked SPI last week, still haven't gotten a response ACTIONS: Lyude to check ticket status (SPIs responses to tickets we've opened have sometimes not made it through to email in the past for some reason, so that may be what's happening here) and poke SPI through IRC STATUS: Pending ITEM: Cloud hosting for freedesktop.org CI usage is very stable and overall declining on the usage trend, and we're working with GitLab as well to pursue some helpful upstream improvements. Benjamin Tissoires has continued some really heroid work to give us a path to having easier and more modular deployments, but most of the work last month went to doing a major PostgreSQL migration. ACTIONS: fdo.org admins to continue improving costs and stability overall STATUS: Pending ITEM: GSoC/EVoC We're still in the community bonding phase, coding officially starts June 1st. Students is doing well, writing blogs, responding/participating, and submitting patches for the tools they'll be using. They've also been added to planet.fdo. ACTIONS: Eric to inform SPI we're going to be part of the GSoC this year, so they can handle payments. STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2020 Website is now online, registration and CfP open.
