Note
At the time that this is sent out, the IRC logs will be incomplete. This is because Secretary bot appears to have started having problems staying connected to OFTC. This isn't too big of a deal as I have client logging enabled, and will patch the logs with the missing content after sending these minutes out.
Items discussed
ITEM: XDC2022 Still waiting for some reimbursements ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2023 We sent the email opening the registration and CfP. Website is in place and DNS redirection as well. ACTIONS: Sponsorbox still needs to be fixed STATUS: Pending ITEM: XDC2024 Samuel sent out the RFP mail as their last action being in charge of this sort of thing. Thanks for all of the work you've put in during your tenure Samuel! ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: Matrix No updates on this yet ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: Elections Voting starts on monday. This is our biggest election to date, with 8 candidates! Note we had to push the schedule back one week due to the next topic… ACTIONS: STATUS: Pending ITEM: Mailing list issues Apparently we had another issue with emails not getting delivered after being sent to a bunch of different mailing lists. The problem stems from the fact that by default, mailman doesn't allow emails through with more then 10 recepients. We've since fixed this, and updated the default on most mailing lists to 100. As it is, I almost never see spam come through that actually has more then 1 recepient on it - so I'm not too concerned about this causing problems in the future. ACTIONS: STATUS: Done
