Here's a quick run-through of what we discussed:

Presentation to Council
=======================

Our presentation to the council is going to be at 5 PM UTC / 12 pm EST 
(post DST) in #fedora-meeting on Monday, November 2. It will be an IRC 
meeting and anyone is welcome to come.

The topics I'll present to the council are covered pretty well in this 
summary from last meeting:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2015-October/007369.html

The main change in the message I think is that swag distribution / 
production varies by geo.

For the FAD we would like to bring up to them, it is looking like July 
2016 in Boston would be a good time/location. It is close to Flock the 
next month in EMEA, but EMEA in particular is expensive for our current 
team makeup.

New Meeting Time
================

Our new meeting time is going to shift next meeting due to daylight 
savings time. Today the meeting was 1200 UTC / 8 AM EDT... next meeting 
(Thursday, November 5) will be at 1300 UTC / 8 AM EST. If you have a 
daylight savings shift, the time won't change for you; if you don't, the 
meeting will be one hour later. Here's a breakdown of the new time for 
future meetings:

- 1300 UTC
- 5 AM PST (US + Canada/Pacific)
- 8 AM EST
- 8:30 AM (Caracas)
- 3 PM (Europe / Berlin + Rome)
- 4 PM (Moscow)
- 6:30 PM (Kolkata)
- 8 PM (Phnom Penh)
- 9 PM (Kuala Lumpur)
- 11 PM (Queensland AU)

New Meeting Chairs
==================

I'm not going to be around from about mid November-December until 
February or March, so ryanlerch and gnokii volunteered to chair the 
meetings when I'm out.

There are some minor issues that need to be addressed I think before we 
can push to prod. anuradhaw indicated she's studying for exams but after 
her exams will have more time to come back to this project. We will wait 
for anuradha to finish her exams to try to address the issues.

Ticket 402: Need to scale down hackergotchi in planet rss feed css
------------------------------------------------------------------
This ticket needed an owner so ryanlerch grabbed it. Thanks, Ryan!

Ticket 210: Update fedoracommunity maps with Russia in EMEA

We thought we were finished with this one but it turns out there are 
some issues. ryanlerch kindly picked it back up to fix.

Ticket 279: Design for "This week in Fedora"
--------------------------------------------
This ticket needed an updating. We discussed this design at the Flock 
design clinic; ryanlerch created a repo on pagure.io and added a mockup 
at the event that he committed then; he also has newer work he did 
post-Flock that he will upload later. I also have a mock from flock I 
never uploaded so I'll upload that too.

Ticket 367: Need logo design for the Fedora Security Team(FST)
--------------------------------------------------------------
This ticket is so close to being done, the logo just needs a few tiny 
tweaks. Pinged Yogi on it.

Ticket 350: Anaconda banner template
------------------------------------
Yogi completed the template work; we just need it to be posted to the 
wiki. Yogi is going to work on this. (He contacted me after the meeting)

In-Progress / Feedback Tickets
==============================

Ticket 403: Icons for FAS 3
----------------------------
riecatnor asked for feedback on her work for this one:

- she designed three updated options for the group icon based on 
feedback from before, and the 3rd one was the favorite.

- there's an icon used in the dark blue bar in the upper left of this 
screen; the group icon should hopefully work there as well: 
http://fas3-dev.fedorainfracloud.org/group/details/3001

- in context, the users icon stands out a bit in the full screen mockup 
because the fedora logo isn't square. we suggested riecatnor modify the 
mockup to add a square border along the outside of the icon to see if 
that fixes the issue

Ticket 407: Logo for mojefedora.cz
----------------------------------
mleonova asked for feedback on this logo design. the favorites were the 
upper left and lower left versions; the designs were well-liked :)

Ticket 404: F23 Release Posters
-------------------------------
sam08 created these awesome designs. We don't know if the reporter used 
them, but they are all quite nice. I asked sam08 to post the SVGs and 
we'll close the ticket and advertise them more widely to the Fedora 
community to use.
