>
> 2) Settle ongoing meeting time slot
> * Agreed - 10am Wednesdays
> * Robyn to send out updated invites
>
> 3) Updated slide set (Robyn)
> * Things to update:
> * Consistent feedback has been:
> * How do we envision the board - when is the board elected - etc.
> * Info on board being fluid, larger, more board members
> * NEED TO: Crisp up slides that clarify board role and members
> * How does this relate to OpenStack, other projects that may be a
> conflict
> * Need to be clear about why it's not a conflict
> * Define plans on interaction with other communities
> * NEED TO add FAQ or slide to stack re: Other communities.
> * Slides around deliverables - define what RHEV was or IS
> * Need to update with current board members, schedule., workshop
info.
> * Action: Robyn/Andy to work on updated slide set to send out.
> * Need additional slide set to send out to non-board but community
> participants, esp. to get participation in the initial workshop.
> * To be a condensed version of Board slide deck
> * Action pending Robyn/Andy update of original slide deck.
>
> 4) OpenStack discussion (added mid-meeting)
> * Everyone in industry has joined
> * Why are we competing
> * IBM doesn't want support/sponsorship of oVirt to say anything about
> what they are doing or plan to do with OpenStack.
> * Team Thoughts:
> * We may be conflicting at some point
> * OS is not nearly as open of a community, really only 2 companies
> rep'd on board
> * More of a cloud vendor solution, oVirt more of a data center virt
> solution
> * OpenStack not as concerned with Data Center solutions
> * OpenStack can build on top of oVirt, in addition to Nova
> * We are KVM specific
> * We don't restrict our scope - open to a wide range of
contributions
> * Key differentiator - we are focused on building a community from
> the ground up, that develops the open source projecss and projects,
> board is not restricting/driving direction
> * Following the Open Source Way
> * Action: Karsten to drive mailing discussion on
> positioning/differentiation, interaction with other communities.
> * Jim J. happy to take lead on any specific community questions people
> have.
>
> 4) Website launch (Karsten, Carl, Jim J.)
> * Status on first-pass of site content
> * Jim has started drafting some content/blog post for an intro. He's
> going to clean up and send to Karsten / Carl for feedback.
> * Karsten is working on getting up a wiki instance in a private space
> for us in the meantime, should be up in the next week.
>
> 5) oVirt Workshop / Summit (Karsten/Robyn)
> * Workshop participation - attendee list status (Robyn)
> * We still need names. PLEASE ADD THEM.
