OK, so it looks like the meeting was not held in my absence last week, so we should at least cover the two agenda items we missed.
* We have two candidates for Server WG seats, Major Hayden and Jon Stanley. We should vote on their admission to the team. As we have two open seats, I'm firmly +1 for both of them.
* Server/Cloud interaction. It has been suggested that the Fedora Server should become the "standard" Fedora image in public clouds, replacing the old Cloud image. This is because the Cloud SIG is moving towards focusing on Atomic, but it would be good to have something more traditional available as well for people to play with. This really needs an owner who isn't me...
Assuming that the WG votes in Major and Jon, I'd like to reserve some time for them to pitch us their ideas for Fedora 24. Nothing like fresh blood to reinvigorate us! </romanian accent>

This is interesting to me, but I guess we need to know what the Cloud Working Group thinks of this idea- we can't really just go in and unilaterally say "we're now the public cloud image as well!". I suspect that there are some people that would think that the server product is too big for the cloud image, and includes too much.
There's also the fact that it doesn't include enough (Kevin mentioned cloud-init last week). Is the proposal here to come up with something different for the cloud image, or to just ship the existing server product as AMI's, etc? Is this a replacement or supplement to what the existing cloud image is? Or is it just us taking over maintenance of the existing image?
Just some food for thought.

Yeah, these are all excellent questions and we will want to have Cloud WG representation at the meeting. My understanding right now is that the Cloud SIG is planning to discontinue the traditional cloud image in favor of focusing entirely on Fedora Atomic. It has been expressed that it would still be beneficial for there to be some sort of Fedora image out there and that perhaps some form of Fedora Server would fit that bill. We need to work out what exactly that means. Jon, if you (or anyone else) would like to own this investigation, that would be very helpful.
