06:52 < whot> good morning gentlemen
06:52 <+alanc> good afternoon
06:54 < mupuf_> hey guys :)
06:55 -!- stukreit [~skreitma@inet-hqmc02-o.oracle.com] has joined #xf-bod
06:56 -!- marcoz [~oftc-webi@masquerade.micron.com] has joined #xf-bod
07:01 < marcoz> 2pm? did I miss the meeting?
07:01 < stukreit> hello!
07:01 < whot> marcoz: nope, just starting now
07:02 <+alanc> we'd gotten as far as hello
07:02 < marcoz> ah, whew, I just noticed the title
07:02 < whot> emmes, keithp, agd5f ping
07:02 < marcoz> pdt.doh!  
07:02 <+egbert> i don;t think emmes will be arond today
07:02 <+egbert> around even
07:02 < marcoz> ok, I'm done with caffeine for the day
07:02 < stukreit> egbert: hiya!
07:03 < agd5f> hi
07:03 <+egbert> hi guys!
07:03 <+egbert> hi stukreit!
07:03 <+alanc> oh hey, I guess I should check the election db to see who got elected
07:03 <+alanc> egbert might be a board member now
07:03 < stukreit> I did not see an announcement, probably buried in the email
07:03 < marcoz> i hear it was a close race
07:04 <+alanc> stukreit: because we all forgot to check and make one
07:04 <+alanc> hmm, I see the vote totals, but not the count of votes
07:05 < mupuf_> alanc: wait wait, is it already the end?
07:05 < keithp> whot: ahoy
07:05 <+alanc> http://www.x.org/wiki/BoardOfDirectors/Elections/2014/ says it ended Sunday, Mar. 16
07:05 < mupuf_> keithp: Speaking czech now?
07:05 <+alanc> which also happens to be the date I entered in the election db to stop taking votes
07:05 < mupuf_> damn, I'm so sorry for doing such a poor job for the election!
07:06 < keithp> mupuf_: pirate
07:06 < mupuf_> keithp: interesting :) Didn't know English pirates greeted like that
07:06 < keithp> mupuf_: czech pirate
07:06 < marcoz> Czech pirates.
07:07 <+alanc> the membership system says we have 83 active members, so 25% quorum would be 21 members
07:07 < mupuf_> alanc: last time I checked, we were past the quorum
07:08 < mupuf_> I added the numbers of "1st choice"
07:08 <+alanc> looks like we had at least 35 votes
07:09 < mupuf_> I count 37, but it doesn't matter
07:09 <+alanc> oh, yeah, if you add down the first column, 37
07:10 <+alanc> I'd added across each row, and multiple candidate got votes from 35 people
07:10 <+alanc> we can make an official announcement mail, but I think it's safe to say we know the election outcome
07:10 < mupuf_> yeah, I should send this email
07:10 < mupuf_> I'll see if I can find last year's email
07:11 <+alanc> step 15 in the election wiki is "Once the results have been approved by the election committee, they should be presented at a full Board of Directors for certification. If the full board approves that the election has been run properly and agrees that the results are valid, then a formal vote to certify the results can be called for and voted upon."
07:11 <+alanc> does the board wish to certify this election and allow mupuf to announce the results to the members?
07:11 < stukreit> +1
07:11 < marcoz> +1
07:11 < mupuf_> +1
07:12 < keithp> +1
07:12 < agd5f> +1
07:12 <+alanc> +1
07:13 < mupuf_> whot: ?
07:13 < whot> +1
07:14 < whot> vote carried, mupuf_ feel free to send the announcement
07:14 < mupuf_> ok, I'll do it before going to bed
07:15 <+alanc> yes, confirmed via SQL that there were 37 votes cast in this election
07:15 < marcoz> is that up from last year?
07:15 <+alanc> mupuf: an old example is http://foundation.x.org/pipermail/members/2006-November/000368.html
07:16 < mupuf_> alanc: thanks, I was looking for one
07:16 <+alanc> marcoz: slightly - last year was 34
07:16 < marcoz> alanc: woot!  I'll take it.
07:16 <+alanc> mupuf_: that link is in the election wiki page I had to look at to find the sql query instructions, so was already on my screen
07:18 <+alanc> sorry for disrupting the agenda whot
07:19 < whot> that's fine, the agenda for today was almost empty anyway bar XDC/SPI updates
07:20 -!- alanc [~alanc@inet-hqmc07-o.oracle.com] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
07:20 -!- alanc [~alanc@inet-hqmc07-o.oracle.com] has joined #xf-bod
07:20 -!- mode/#xf-bod [+v alanc] by ChanServ
07:20 < keithp> SPI has a meeting in a few weeks, Bdale is charged with writing a proposed agenda item for that
07:20 < whot> alanc: i thought you were so sorry you committed irc seppuku :)
07:21 < keithp> I don't think there are any other pending items there, other than working on our asset list
07:21 <+alanc> heh, no, the joys of having to connect via http proxy from work, sometimes it drops
07:21 < whot> keithp: ok, thanks. mupuf_ any updates worth mentioning for XDC?
07:22 < mupuf_> whot: no updates for XDC
07:22 < mupuf_> I can talk a little about GSoC though
07:22 < whot> oh, right - yes please
07:22 < mupuf_> well, not much to say except that the student application deadline is tomorrow
07:22 < mupuf_> and so far, we have 4 candidates
07:23 < mupuf_> well, as of yesterday, we had 4 candidates
07:23 < mupuf_> I haven't checked today
07:23 < mupuf_> we also have plenty of mentors who connected with the organization
07:26 <+alanc> but do we have mentors that overlap the areas the students want to work on?
07:27 < agd5f> so far, yes
07:28 <+alanc> good
07:28 < mupuf_> is there anything else one would like to know?
07:31 <+alanc> where is MH370?
07:31 <+alanc> or were you just offering GSoC answers?
07:32 < mupuf_> alanc: MH370 is the plane?
07:32 < stukreit> I got sent a picture of gilligan's island with the plane on it.
07:32 <+alanc> yes, the missing Malaysian Airlines flight
07:33 < mupuf_> alanc: you're supposed to be the oracle, not me ;)
07:40 < whot> sorry, got distracted here. mupuf_ what's the wayland component of the gsocs? just out of interest
07:41 < mupuf_> whot: good question
07:41 < mupuf_> I saw plenty of proposals for wayland on the ML
07:41 < mupuf_> but let me check which ones translated into a real application
07:42 < mupuf_> none
07:42 < mupuf_> we have 2 CL proposals
07:42 < mupuf_> one on glamor
07:42 < mupuf_> and one on nouveau/perf counters (same student as last year)
07:43 < whot> ok
07:43 < whot> alright, in that case I think we're done for today. Anyone have anything else to discuss?
07:44 < mupuf_> not that I can think of
07:45 < whot> ok, in that case - see you guys in two weeks
