Items discussed
ITEM: X.org/freedesktop.org domain status No updates yet, Simon poked SPI about this last week ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2020 invoices status Only ARM, Microsoft, and Intel payments are pending. All other payments have been received. For ARM manasi has sent the invoice request and just followed up with SPI to see if they have already sent invoices to ARM and Intel. ACTIONS: Next Manasi will follow up with each sponsor's contacts on payment STATUS: Pending ITEM: Cloud hosting for freedesktop.org No updates yet, probably expect some stuff to happen in January. ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: Requesting ledger data No updates on this just yet ACTIONS: Lyude to poke SPI and probably also drop into the next SPI board meeting STATUS: Pending ITEM: HDMI 2.1 No updates yet ACTIONS: Harry to find the time to write email to HDMI group STATUS: Pending ITEM: Changing hosting policy to allow for secretaries to be on the CoC team Since one of the members of our CoC enforcement team will be leaving on December 31st, we need to find new people for the CoC enforcement team. This being said, Lyude has been interested in doing this since joining the board but hasn't been able to due to the hosting policy forbidding Secretaries from being on the CoC team. As well, Lyude already has professional CoC training, has served on the CoC team for XDC for 2019 (not bound by said rules), and has been doing moderation of some form in various communities for ages now. Board voted to approve policy. ACTIONS: Lyude to push hosting policy update and add self to CoC team list on wiki STATUS: Done ITEM: Issues with abuse reports on Gitlab We recently discovered an issue with abuse reports on Gitlab where it turns out that the only people who are able to review such reports are Gitlab admins, and unfortunately no one on the CoC team is actually a Gitlab admin. ACTIONS: As a temporary short-term solution, Lyude will be given admin access in order to relay reports to the rest of the CoC team. For a long term solution, we're going to discuss with Gitlab about potential solutions for this issue so that admin access isn't required STATUS: Pending
