Feb 27 22:38:35 * DanseMakabre (i=pat(a)bobo.ds5.agh.edu.pl) has joined
#fedora-meeting
Feb 27 22:38:43 <jsmith> (technically, it should be in good shape...
it could use some wordsmithing in a few places, but the docbook should
be pretty solid)
Feb 27 22:39:06 <jsmith> I was hoping to get some of the more
experienced members of the team to make sure I haven't totally screwed
up
Feb 27 22:39:18 * jsmith is still new here, and doesn't want to assume
he's doing it right
Feb 27 22:39:28 <jmbuser> jsmith: I can review it for typos, style,
etc. if you like
Feb 27 22:40:00 <jsmith> jmbuser: OK, that would be great.
Feb 27 22:40:12 <jsmith> I'll try to get quaid or stickster to review
the DocBook
Feb 27 22:40:20 <jsmith> That's all I had ;-)
Feb 27 22:40:45 <jmbuser> jsmith: Are you familiar with the CVS procedures?
Feb 27 22:40:48 * wolfy (n=lonewolf@fedora/wolfy) has left
#fedora-meeting ("It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the
sudden stop at the end.")
Feb 27 22:42:38 * cdehaan

Feb 27 22:42:48 <jmbuser> jsmith: good
Feb 27 22:42:55 <jsmith> jmbuser: I've already done the conversion to
DocBook and checked the changes into CVS
Feb 27 22:43:05 <jsmith> jmbuser: (in the yum-management-guide module)
Feb 27 22:43:15 <jmbuser> jsmith: good++
Feb 27 22:43:34 <jsmith> What I'm not super-familiar with is the tool chain
Feb 27 22:43:50 <jsmith> (and nuances of various DocBook tags and how
you guys use them)
Feb 27 22:44:04 <jsmith> But yes, I'm very familiar with CVS and
DocBook in general
Feb 27 22:44:39 <EvilBob> Leadership?
Feb 27 22:44:43 * cdehaan has quit (Client Quit)
Feb 27 22:44:55 <jmbuser> jmbuser: I'm not an expert, but I'm a little
familiar with the tags - po files are another story
Feb 27 22:45:08 <jmbuser> EvilBob: Since you mentioned it...
Feb 27 22:45:09 <EvilBob> Do we have enough here for quorum?
Feb 27 22:45:30 <jmbuser> Let's see - roll call time again

Feb 27 22:46:00 <EvilBob> that should be 5 enough for a confirmation
Feb 27 22:46:03 <EvilBob> Bob Jensen
Feb 27 22:46:33 <EvilBob> did we lose glezos and couf
Feb 27 22:46:49 <jmbuser> glezos: ping
Feb 27 22:46:51 <glezos> EvilBob: I'm here
Feb 27 22:46:57 <jmbuser> couf: ping
Feb 27 22:47:00 <glezos> +1 for converting
Feb 27 22:47:20 <couf> pong, wifi dropped a bit
Feb 27 22:48:05 <jmbuser> It looks like a quorum...
Feb 27 22:48:11 <EvilBob> I would like to motion for a vote confirming
jmbuser as our new Vice Chair/Future leader
Feb 27 22:48:21 * smooge (n=smooge(a)canopus.unm.edu) has joined #fedora-meeting
Feb 27 22:48:57 <jsmith> I second the motion

Feb 27 22:49:41 <EvilBob> All those in favor of John Babich leading
the prject in the future please respond with a +1
Feb 27 22:49:44 * JSchmitt (n=s4504kr@fedora/JSchmitt) has joined
#fedora-meeting
Feb 27 22:49:45 <EvilBob> +1
Feb 27 22:49:49 <couf> +1
Feb 27 22:49:52 <jmbuser> (abstains)
Feb 27 22:49:55 <glezos> um
Feb 27 22:50:01 <glezos> what does "in the future" mean? :)
Feb 27 22:50:18 <EvilBob> glezos: 6 onths as vice chair, learning the ropes
Feb 27 22:50:37 <EvilBob> glezos: then a 1 year term as chair
Feb 27 22:50:52 <EvilBob> glezos: the last 6 months training the next chair
Feb 27 22:51:09 <glezos> EvilBob: maybe we might want to have quaid
and stickster around for such a vote?
Feb 27 22:51:18 <jmbuser> I think it should clear that assumes
continued involvement and re-election
Feb 27 22:51:21 <EvilBob> glezos: they are in agreement
Feb 27 22:51:33 <glezos> FWIW, I think it's great to have jmbuser for VC :)
Feb 27 22:52:03 <jmbuser> If I really screw up, you can kick me out :-)
Feb 27 22:52:04 <glezos> +1 then
Feb 27 22:52:28 <EvilBob> jsmith: do you care to vote?
Feb 27 22:52:45 <jsmith> Obviously, since I seconded the motion
Feb 27 22:52:47 <jsmith> +1
Feb 27 22:52:54 * JSchmitt has quit (Client Quit)
Feb 27 22:53:08 <EvilBob> we have the required 4 + votes to confirm
Feb 27 22:53:20 <EvilBob> jmbuser: Congrats
Feb 27 22:53:47 <glezos> jmbuser: I'm sure you'll do well, the work
you've done so far is fantastic
Feb 27 22:53:54 * jsmith pats jmbuser on the back
Feb 27 22:54:07 <couf> congrats jmbuser
Feb 27 22:54:31 <jmbuser> Thanks - I really appreciate the confidence
you guys have in me - I hope to continue to live up to it
Feb 27 22:54:54 <jmbuser> It's always a team effort
Feb 27 22:55:02 <EvilBob> I have to bug out at this point, Mom is
getting annoyed
Feb 27 22:55:10 <jsmith> Thanks EvilBob
Feb 27 22:55:26 <jmbuser> EvilBob: see you later, thanks
Feb 27 22:57:29 <jmbuser> Referring back to the agenda, any more
thoughts on Publican?
Feb 27 22:57:55 <jsmith> I'm still happy to show people how to get
started, but I'm still just scratching the surface
Feb 27 22:58:05 <jsmith> I've done three or four different docs in it now
Feb 27 22:58:16 <jsmith> and even figured out how to get PDFs out of it (mostly)
Feb 27 22:58:24 <glezos> jmbuser: good job
Feb 27 22:59:22 <jmbuser> glezos: thanks
Feb 27 22:59:35 <jmbuser> jsmith: I saw you were quoted in the Red Hat
Magazine article...
Feb 27 23:00:32 <jsmith> jmbuser: Yeah... stickster has been dropping
my name again, like I'm some sort of rock star
Feb 27 23:00:37 * jsmith isn't all that and a bag of chips

Feb 27 23:03:00 <jmbuser> s / Transiifex / Transifex /
