Since I brought up an item in the agenda, I'm asking you to bring it up for and the status update of the fact that this project will be no longer worked due to the fact that none of the people that are a part of the project are willing to work on it. Also, a note from me (belkinsa) that I think I meant "outreach" in a differen 18:07 <pleia2> 06:22:07 < belkinsa> as in outreach for our team and project to get more members not so much as helping women to get jobs in the FOSS world. Thank you. Note: I'm doing this here because I want this to be logged for proof that I said this. 18:07 <pleia2> 06:23:04 < belkinsa> This is also to everyone else who will be a part of this meeting and my item is still okay to talk about in the meeting. 18:07 <pleia2> so we should mark this project as on hold (or cancelled) in the wiki 18:08 <pleia2> I think the thing we can learn most from this is like GNOME's OPW and GSoC, we really lack mentors to do this on even a small scale 18:09 <pleia2> all of us being volunteers certainly contributes to this, we're all busy people with jobs elsewere 18:09 <pleia2> elsewhere 18:10 <Cheri703> that makes sense 18:10 <pleia2> thanks to belkinsa for giving it a try though :) if we do find we have a stronger mentor community in the future this provides a nice framework to get things rolling 18:10 <pleia2> #topic The LeadershipElectionProcess 18:10 <pleia2> this is the last thing on the agenda, referring to trying to find someone to lead the election coming up this summer 18:10 <pleia2> http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/LeadershipElectionProcess 18:11 <pleia2> so before May 30th, we'd like to have found someone who isn't running for election to run this 18:11 <pleia2> looks like we want 2 people 18:12 <pleia2> they'd send out announcements, set up poll, etc - not alone, we have instructions for everything, just need folks to hold the keys and keep things moving 18:12 <Cheri703> I can help with the election 18:12 <pleia2> yay! 18:13 <pleia2> ok, so we'll make sure we'll find a 2nd person by May 30th then 18:13 <pleia2> #topic Any other business 18:13 <pleia2> anything else? 18:14 <pleia2> I did want to mention that the mid-cycle virtual Ubuntu Developer Summit is happening this week: http://uds.ubuntu.com/ 18:15 <pleia2> participation is via google hangouts, our team doesn't have a session because we plan for 6 months and are good at having meetings, so the mid cycle ones aren't so valuable to us 18:16 <pleia2> schedule is here: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1403/ 18:17 <Cheri703> I am so busy this week >_< 18:17 <pleia2> me too, I'm not able to participate either 18:17 <pleia2> I can take off the time from work every 6 months, but every 3 is too much 18:18 <pleia2> ok, I think that's it then 18:18 <pleia2> thanks for coming Cheri703 :) 18:18 <Cheri703> sure! 18:18 <pleia2> #endmeeting
