🪑 Rotating meeting chair?

[Major Hayden]

Hey everyone,

A few more people asked me about how to get involved in Fedora Cloud and
one of my usual suggestions is "come to a meeting!" However, the
meetings are always falling on David to run (thank you, David!) and it
might be nice to set up some kind of a rotating meeting chair.

This seems to work well in FESCo-land and we might be able to adopt a
similar meeting process[0]. We normally ask if someone is interested in
being the chair for the next meeting just before a meeting ends.

These meetings will likely become more important as we work through the
remaining items required to restore the Cloud Base to an official Fedora
Edition[1].

Thoughts?

I'm happy to throw my hat in the ring for one of the upcoming meetings.

Rotating every week might be a bit much. Fedora Workstation does a
meeting chair election after each release cycle. That might work
better and let people have the opportunity to properly build skills if
they're interested in it.

I think that’s reasonable. Maybe we can set up some automation around the prep for the
meeting too. So we can spin the wheel and then take the meeting for 2-4 weeks or so.

I'm on the road (literally) for the next meeting, so although I can't
chair it, I could hack through some wiki page things for making it easy
to copy/paste agendas and such.

I am so down for this! I can’t believe I didn’t think to propose it earlier.

Consider this my formal acceptance of this as a way forward. I think this is stellar, but
I’ll keep my eye on the door and if there is a need, consider me a volunteer to take the
meeting when we can’t find someone else.
