We settled that question at the hack-a-way. 14:40:29 <JBoyer> tspindler, fear not, we had that argument at the hackaway. 2.12 it .s 14:40:34 <gmcharlt> yesitis212wewantnodebateitisdefintely212 14:40:35 <gmcharlt> *cough* 14:40:56 <graced> well, that woke some people up ;) 14:41:04 <kmlussier> We're looking at a fall 2017 release for 3.0. :) 14:41:05 <terran> See what you missed, tspindler? :D 14:41:26 <graced> miker: your release mgr update? 14:41:33 <tspindler> it sounds good to have missed it 14:41:46 <tspindler> like another event that shall remain nameless 14:41:47 <miker> for my part, gmcharlt cut the build (as buildmaster) yesterday 14:42:00 <gmcharlt> (and dbwells) 14:42:02 <miker> a few bugs fixed since .0, so, go us 14:42:12 <terran> gmcharlt++ dbwells++ miker++ 14:42:22 <miker> sorry, yes, I'm crossing streams 14:42:32 <miker> dbwells cut my 2.11.1 14:42:41 <miker> dbwells++ 14:43:42 <graced> any questions for miker? 14:43:47 <miker> not much else to say... :) 14:44:27 <graced> all y'all++ 14:44:31 <graced> moving on then 14:44:58 <graced> #topic New Business 14:45:06 <graced> #topic EOB Hack-a-way meetings 14:45:22 <graced> I see value in continuing to meet mid-cycle, and at the Hackaway seems convenient for most. I think planning for a 1-day session with better a/v support for those who can’t come due to obligations or distance would be enough. Thoughts? 14:45:42 <miker> big +1 14:45:50 <afterl> +1 14:45:51 <miker> I think it's very useful 14:46:00 <tspindler> +1 14:46:01 <collum> +1 14:46:31 <terran> I'd prefer if it didn't conflict with dedicated Hack-a-way time. Perhaps the day before, or an evening, or Friday afternoon. 14:46:52 <graced> terran: yes, I think the day before when most folks are travelling is ideal. 14:47:30 <graced> Then those who need to/want to stay for the Hackaway or part of it can do so 14:47:31 <rgagnon> Better a/v would be helpful, it was sometimes hard to hear the proceedings. 14:47:55 <collum> better_av_than_collums_laptop++ 14:48:10 <graced> better planning overall :) 14:48:15 <rfrasur> agree with terran about not conflicting 14:48:32 <rfrasur> and, of course, the AV. 14:48:49 <graced> Okay, let's take that idea and plan with it. 14:48:54 <terran> +1 14:48:58 <collum> +1 14:48:59 <afterl> +1 14:49:03 <rgagnon> +1 14:49:09 <collum> The day before sounds perfect. 14:49:28 <graced> #agreed Continuing mid-cycle meetings coinciding with the Hackaway is a good thing - just not during the hackaway time. 14:49:36 <rfrasur> +1 14:50:03 <graced> Which reminds me - does anyone object to the EOB meeting at the Evergreen Conference being held on Wed morning? 14:50:15 <rfrasur> what constitutes morning? 14:50:22 <afterl> Fine with me 14:50:23 <tspindler> None as long as I know in advance. 14:50:26 <graced> It's just about the only relatively conflict free time we'll get for a few hours of meeting. 14:50:53 <graced> Morning being "before the developers really get going in the Hackfest" so 8-10am? 14:50:55 <rgagnon> Advance notice for arrangements, please. 14:50:56 <graced> 9-11? 14:51:06 <afterl> 9-11 14:51:09 <terran> That's fine with me 14:51:09 <rfrasur> 9-11 14:51:13 <afterl> 8-10, ha! 14:51:26 <rfrasur> afterl++ 14:51:32 * graced is an early bird 14:52:17 <graced> okay, I'll make a note to the local conference committee that we'll need some space to meet that morning. 14:52:18 <rfrasur> well, it's more of a "if one is traveling" thing 14:52:43 <graced> #agreed plan for the EOB meeting at the Evergreen conference to be Wed am. exact time TBD 14:53:18 <graced> Any other new business? 14:54:34 <graced> hearing none... 14:54:47 <graced> Our next meeting is 12/15 - see you all then! 14:54:55 <afterl> bye! 14:54:56 <graced> #end meeting 14:55:00 <graced> #endmeeting
