[11:59:41] [I have joined #xf-bod]
[12:00:03] <sima> only somewhat around, only agenda I have is to make the spi/tracy intro, but I'll take care of that
[12:00:16] <cmichael> here
[12:00:17] <Lyude> sima: thank you!
[12:00:20] <ivyl> present
[12:00:50] <Lyude> mfilion, anholt, rg3igalia ?
[12:01:15] <anholt> here
[12:02:39] <Lyude> Ah cool! So the agenda today: XDC updates, GSoC/Outreachy/EVoC, matrix (no updates yet, sorry I've been a bit busy!), and SFC stuff 
[12:02:47] <Lyude> sima: want to go over your stuff first?
[12:03:27] <sima> Lyude, above was kinda all, helped tracy a bit to assemble the asset list for the sfc paperwork
[12:03:36] <sima> and we got 2 more sponsors for xdc23
[12:03:53] <sima> and one who declined because "too late" unfortunately, so that's on me :-(
[12:04:18] <Lyude> That's alright, mistakes happen. thanks for all of the great work w/ getting sponsors that you've done so far :)
[12:04:29] <anholt> agreed, thanks for your continuing work on this.
[12:05:09] <Lyude> tlwoerner, rg3igalia - any student related updates?
[12:06:37] <Lyude> oh whoops, wrong person. cmichael I meant
[12:06:44] <cmichael> Lyude, lol, no worries
[12:07:23] <cmichael> Lyude, no specific student updates afaik. We are approaching project wrap up and final evaluation (Aug 21-28)
[12:08:02] <cmichael> Lyude, there was some mails on the list wrt xdc travel sponsorship (from rg3igalia), and I believe a few of us have voted on that already
[12:08:20] <Lyude> cmichael: do we need any more votes on that?
[12:08:37] <cmichael> Lyude, I've only seen 3 votes so far
[12:08:46] <Lyude> gotcha, might as well vote on it now then :)
[12:08:57] <cmichael> myself, rg3igalia, and Arkadiusz Hiler
[12:09:07] <tlwoerner> Lyude: one student went awol after midterms, but they've since come back. will likely need their final date extended
[12:09:25] <Lyude> gotcha, glad to hear they were able to come back :3
[12:09:26] <tlwoerner> otherwise, everything's okay
[12:10:11] <Lyude> Also cmichael - +1 for the updated expenses, anholt sima ^ ?
[12:10:31] <sima> +1
[12:10:40] <Lyude> Alright, approved!
[12:11:14] <Lyude> I think that's basically it, very quick meeting today. thanks for coming everyone :)
[12:11:27] <cmichael> no worries :) thanks Lyude 
[12:11:52] <ivyl> I have a small update on the EVoC payments. I've initiated SPI process for one of the students and it turns out we need a contract. They are figuring things out on what would be the best kind of contract for such cases. It's moving very slow.
[12:12:11] <ivyl> So EVoC payments this year are extremely late due to this and previous issues.
[12:12:52] <ivyl> I've also got payment details for the second student, but that's also blocked on the whole contract ordeal.
[12:13:29] <ivyl> First student is in the loop, I'll have to update the second one on what's going on. That's it.
[12:13:43] <Lyude> ivyl: yikes, anything we can do to help? or I assume we just need to keep poking SFC
[12:14:20] <ivyl> I don't think so. SPI has to figure out what to do and then contract has to be made. Sucks for students due to all the delays.
[12:14:29] <ivyl> The contract requirement is a new thing and got us by surprise.
[12:32:28] <rg3igalia> sorry, I intended to connect from mobile but somehow the app forgot my credentials and I couldn't connect :(
