[11:00:02] [connected at Wed Nov 15 11:00:02 2023] [11:00:03] [I have joined #xf-bod] [11:00:30] <Lyude> Hi everyone! Time for role call: anholt_, sima, cmichael, mfilion, alyssa, rg3igalia [11:00:36] <cmichael> present [11:00:40] <rg3igalia> o/ [11:00:41] * sima wave4s [11:02:09] <alyssagloo> π [11:02:31] <Lyude> So on the agenda today: XDC, GSoC/EVoC, no updates on matrix, I think that's it? [11:03:38] <Lyude> rg3igalia: did you want to go over XDC stuff? [11:04:01] <rg3igalia> yes, thanks [11:04:26] <rg3igalia> just a couple of things from my side [11:04:52] <rg3igalia> first, we don't have the invoice from Igalia yet, but as far as I know we're very close to having one so that we can see the final cost [11:05:48] <rg3igalia> second, we haven't gotten word back from the streaming company about video recordings, which we'll be able to use to split the different talks into individual videos [11:06:43] <rg3igalia> this way we can have higher quality than just by downloading the existing youtube video and splitting it, and also we want to check if the few missing minutes of audio (in the second day, I think) from the live stream are available in the recording, which is highly likely because I think the problem was only in the streaming part [11:07:36] <rg3igalia> I also wanted to ask you guys about a possible post-mortem, to see how you think the conference was run and if there's anything that we should take into account for future proposals [11:08:09] <rg3igalia> and if you've detected if the event was a covid superspreader (I don't think it was, but I don't have enough data to prove it) [11:08:53] <rg3igalia> that's it for xdc 2023, we can talk later about xdc 2024 [11:10:05] <alyssagloo> (Among people I know who tested post conference i know of one positive and a handful of negatives. .. probably was some spread but not as bad as I feared going in) [11:11:56] <rg3igalia> do you know if the timing matches with having caught it during xdc or if it may have been during travel? [11:12:12] <alyssagloo> unclear [11:12:51] <alyssagloo> I think they messaged you about it (?) so you may know more than I do at this point [11:13:20] <rg3igalia> I'll ask my colleagues if it's the same case, thanks! [11:13:50] <rg3igalia> we got only one report of someone testing positive after the conference [11:13:54] <sima> rg3igalia, on covid, I think the air was sometimes a bit stale but I didn't have my co2 meter along [11:14:08] <sima> just fairly well-tuned (with my co2 meter at home) gut feeling [11:14:13] <sima> otherwise haven't heard anything [11:14:42] <sima> so kinda wondered whether we should be more transparent there, might also help people to make their informed decision about masking [11:15:08] <sima> (did do a test myself afterward, was negative) [11:16:35] <rg3igalia> if we'd like to be more transparent, we should perhaps do an anonymous poll for attendees to report about that [11:16:52] <rg3igalia> so that we have more exhaustive data [11:17:27] <sima> rg3igalia, oh I mean with the co2 tracking in various places [11:17:52] <sima> but yeah anonymous reporting of positive tests might be something to consider, dunno [11:18:07] <alyssagloo> Possible βfor the case I know of, not sure they would have reported if I didn't ask them to, so I could believe that there are reported positive positive tests after the conference [11:18:21] <alyssagloo> Unreported [11:18:25] <sima> not sure how much that'll help, I suspect most misses are because people don't test, so you have to assume that when air quality is crap there's a risk [11:18:41] <rg3igalia> what do you mean exactly about the co2 tracking? the covid policy mentioned the co2 tracking [11:19:31] <sima> rg3igalia, maybe it more visible perhaps, with maybe some emoji that goes from "probably fine" to "uh" to "masked" or so [11:19:36] <sima> just an idea really [11:19:53] <sima> not sure there's good building code standards for this tbf [11:21:11] <rg3igalia> ah, understood, you mean having the air quality "measure" publicly displayed while the conference is running [11:21:58] <rg3igalia> that would be interesting, definitely [11:22:56] <sima> yup [11:23:17] <sima> like in the hallway it's probably very fine, but maybe not so much during breaks [11:23:56] <sima> and masking up when the air is stale also helps against conference flu in general, not just against covid like tests [11:24:01] <sima> which is kinda nice imo [11:24:06] <rg3igalia> π [11:25:23] <rg3igalia> regarding xdc 2024, I have no real news [11:25:54] <rg3igalia> just waiting for mark to send the promised proposal, although official the extended period was over as of Nov 1st [11:26:14] <rg3igalia> and one person has asked me about news regarding xdc 2024 via email [11:26:32] <rg3igalia> because they knew the call for proposals period has ended [11:26:56] <rg3igalia> I'm wondering if we should extend the proposals period again (the only proposal we have so far is PEI) [11:27:24] <rg3igalia> to make it publicly known that we're still waiting, since IMHO PEI is a no-go with their proposal [11:27:33] <rg3igalia> but we could vote on that too :) [11:27:33] * sima stares at mfilion [11:27:46] <sima> I think just poking mfilion a bit more should do it [11:27:59] <rg3igalia> I poked him last week, will do again [11:28:09] <sima> at least for me we've practically decided anyway, just need to officiate it once we have the details [11:28:15] <rg3igalia> but the mentions in this channel should be good enough :D [11:28:17] <sima> and make sure sfc is in the loop on that too [11:29:26] <Lyude> Do we have any updates regarding GSoC? [11:29:50] <cmichael> Lyude, not much news there [11:30:00] <cmichael> the Project completion date was yesterday [11:30:08] <cmichael> but everything has already passed [11:30:15] <cmichael> prior to that [11:30:23] <Lyude> right [11:30:29] <cmichael> the actual GSoC program end date is the 17th this month [11:30:56] <cmichael> aside from that, I've not heard much [11:31:34] <Lyude> Gotcha, I guess unless anyone has anything I missed that's it for the meeting :) [11:32:06] <Lyude> thanks for coming everyone! [11:32:15] <cmichael> thank you Lyude [11:32:21] <sima> Lyude, oh sfc update, they're happy with the khr contract [11:32:33] <Lyude> oh cool! and thank you for handling that :) [11:32:36] <sima> I guess we should ping sfc whether they can start the formal onboarding process? [11:32:43] <sima> could you perhaps do that? [11:32:48] <Lyude> yeah - sounds like a plan, I'm happy to handle that today [11:33:04] <sima> I'll also ping (hopefully, assuming enough spoons) whether they're ok with me starting xdc24 sponsor acquisition [11:33:08] <sima> thx! [11:34:03] * cmichael gives extra spoons to sima [11:35:13] <mfilion> sorry I'm super late [11:37:14] <mfilion> and yes working xdc, visited a place last week, waiting to hear back on others. will do some follow ups today [11:38:26] <mfilion> I had forgotten to update my agenda with the time change, stupid DST [11:41:18] <sima> what would we do without that entertainment 2x a year [11:42:54] <mfilion> haha yeah really [11:50:03] <alyssagloo> This year I've made the dubious decision of not changing my clock for DST, and continuing to live my life on year-round UTC-4 [11:50:09] <alyssagloo> οΏΌ it's pretty good can recommend π
