Jan to reach out and get contact info. * Do we have communication in place with folks at Early Adoption Level? * Mid-September will probably be the time to engage. Working on Board-level commitments first. * Action: Robyn to open separate document for user participation for the workshops, start building that list. Anyone can add to that. * Engagement / Speaking Opportunities: *End of September in Paris is Open World Forum. Jan and Karsten to possibly do briefings there. * Potential to use other speaking slots at OWF to promote oVirt Project, OVA, etc. * Action: Everyone, list speaking/engagement opportunities in the Google Doc, use times to advertise workshop. (Section 8) 4) Project Logistics * Please take a look at the google doc around mailing lists - where to do cross-project release coordination, etc.? * Subproject mailing lists? * Coordination list? (logistics, perhaps?) * Patches list, etc. * Review/feedback welcomed. * Perry - do we really need this for every project? Not really a need to have a private mailing list - some lists may be optional as needed. Anthony: should probably be decided by each community. Don't make it policy and let each project decide. * Decision: Yes, let's mark it as optional. * Jan: Is there a defined intellectual property policy? Carl: Apache style - this is my own work, etc., ASL or GPLv2 license. ASL is strong enough that we don't need anything else. Jan agrees. We need to put it up front. * Anthony: Would be helpful to have DSO as well as an option. * Action: Robyn to add section to document - have Legal, etc. provide feedback. * Karsten: Let's get it on the list, at least, to have a place to point to for Legal questions. * Action: Carl, Karsten, Jimjag working on first-pass of site content including governance. * Carl noted in Section about community, etc. that we need to note how governance works, committing, voting, how new subprojects work, releases and release management, subprojects and requirements. Need to add licensing. Any other topics that we want to explicity call out, please add it to the list. 5) Top Community Pages - Goal, Mission, etc. * 2 sites Carl likes - Eclipse.org, JBoss Project Matrix. 6) Logistics for Workshop * Action: Robyn to send mail about weeks that are options for the Workshop. Get feedback. * Will settle next week in this call. * Locations: Ask Intel - good hosting facilities. London, East Coast, West Coast. * What timezone is the best time zone to do it in? * Additional ideas on locations welcome for hosting. * # of expected people - location should be able to handle 60-100 people. * Linuxcon Europe is an option - October 26-28. * Make sense to combine with OVA meeting? * Looking for a Volunteer to work through location logistics. * Action: Karsten to lead this discussion. * High-level, bigger workshop vs. smaller, focused. * Initial is high-level, large invite to create lots of buzz. * Afterward run monthly etc. _______________________________________________ Project-planning mailing list Project-planning(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/project-planning
