Items discussed
ITEM: X.org/freedesktop.org domain status No updates ACTIONS: Keith Packard to send out an email to SPI STATUS: Pending ITEM: Requesting ledger data No updates yet, Lyude sent out an email to sfrost today ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: Cloud hosting for freedesktop.org Things running well on packet, things are generally quiet otherwise ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2021 mupuf is finishing setup of the container for the website ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2022 Samuel has not sent the emails yet to potential XDC 2022 organizers. However, they have a template email already done, so it is just a matter of finding time to send it. ACTIONS: Samuel to send email STATUS: Pending ITEM: HDMI 2.1 Harry hasn't received any responses from the rest of the board to their email with the HDMI 2.1 email draft yet ACTIONS: Lyude to send response today STATUS: Pending ITEM: Elections The nomination period is open and we've received 3 nominations so far, and I expect to see 2 more. Additionally, we found out that apparently some of the emails with membership reminders have been getting filtered out as spam email on Gmail. Lyude is talking with a community member who works at Google to see what can be done to fix that. ACTIONS: Harry to try resending email to each different mailing list at a time, to see if that gets things to move through STATUS: Pending ITEM: GSoC/Outreachy Unfortunately we weren't able to find anyone to mentor for GSoC, so we didn't submit an application. Haven't heard back from mfilion about outreachy yet. ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2022 sponsors Intel signed on as platinum, no other updates yet. ACTIONS: Danvet to start poking potential sponsors STATUS: Pending
