X.org Board of Directors Meeting summary of Tuesday 2009-09-01. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Official log: https://members.x.org/minutes/xorg-board-2009-09-01.txt Location is #xf-bod@irc.oftc.net, timeframe of meeting unknown. Attending board members: Eric Anholt, Bart Massey, Carl Worth Absent board members: Adam Jackson, Alan Coopersmith, Donnie Berkholz, Daniel Stone, Matthieu Herrb. Attending non-board members: Keith Packard. Bart starts the meeting by asking Eric about the election web-application. Eric first states that there has been no progress, but looks into it now, and discovers that Carl already fixed it a while back. There is some talk about doing a test run, and it is kind of agreed, that a run shortly before the actual elections should be good enough. Bart then says that he will establish a schedule, run this by the board, and will then post a call for nominations. Bart talks to Keith about the bank transition and tells him to email Karen at SFLC; "We really need that document to get the bank thing wrapped up." Bart then brings up the fact that "mirror_admin@x.org has become a spam magnet", Eric agrees to go and kill this email account. Bart then talks to Carl about XDC, Bart is concerned that X.org "got a block of 20 rooms and a conference space reserved for a Portland conference that no one may attend". Carl remarks that there are "5 talk proposals on the wiki", Bart still needs to add his own talk to that. Both agree to go and make more noise, and to work hard to get the reserved rooms filled up: Bart states "I'm concerned that 1-3 rooms will be used and we will end up paying for the rest. I think at this point we pay about half for unfilled rooms, IIRC." After this topic, the meeting is disbanded. No motions were presented at this meeting, no voting took place.
