Items discussed
ITEM: X.org/freedesktop.org domain status No updates yet ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2022 No updates ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: GSoC/Outreachy/EVoC GSoC recently changed their program guidelines in order to make things more flexible and allow for projects with longer timelines - so it would be a good time for us to consider getting involved with GSoC again. Because of the issues with finding volunteers, there's been some discussion regarding simply making it a board responsibility. We'll figure out details post-election. ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: MIPI Alliance and CSI No updates yet ACTIONS: Lyude to poke partners again STATUS: Pending ITEM: Election season Elections are coming up soon, and the people who currently aren't up for re-election are Lyude, Manasi and Daniel. Currently Lyude and Daniel have volunteered to help run the election. ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: Treasurer report for 2021 and SPI Currently because of continued issues with getting SPI to be responsive, which came up while discussing the treasurer report for last year (which is currently delayed as a result of this), the board is considering alternative organizations to propose joining. We'll likely be targeting the election after this one (so, next year) for this to provide members with a chance to vote on such a decision. ACTIONS: Lyude to start poking around with alternative organizations STATUS: Pending
