[2019/06/03 03:19:02] for applicants [2019/06/03 03:19:22] 2 weeks for the second round election is what we've permitted in the past [2019/06/03 03:19:30] that would imply we would approve them without a meeting, or hold a meeting 1w from the record date [2019/06/03 03:19:49] yep, it'd be a quick meeting [2019/06/03 03:19:59] I think one week is more than enough but it depend on the nominations number [2019/06/03 03:20:25] I think 1w is probably not enough time, I'd probably advocate for 2 [2019/06/03 03:20:36] I can see that, some vacations are week long [2019/06/03 03:20:47] ok for me also two weeks [2019/06/03 03:20:56] Its june 3, we can record essentially, june 20, thats over 2 weeks away.

[2019/06/03 04:12:16] oh [2019/06/03 04:12:18] I also abstain ;) [2019/06/03 04:12:19] abstain: alicef [2019/06/03 04:12:22] abstain: alicef, antarus [2019/06/03 04:12:23] like 20 minutes ago [2019/06/03 04:12:24] still passes [2019/06/03 04:12:27] yep [2019/06/03 04:12:30] ok :D [2019/06/03 04:12:43] ok, that's the routine new business [2019/06/03 04:13:11] Any Other Business (from trustees) now, which will be followed by open floor [2019/06/03 04:13:29] abstain (no) [2019/06/03 04:13:33] none from me [2019/06/03 04:13:44] I would like to discuss my work on the tax prep... it was not received well the first time I asked to do it... [2019/06/03 04:13:47] i have already made my pronouncement of standing for re-election [2019/06/03 04:13:53] and I would like to discuss the Git repo bylaws [2019/06/03 04:14:05] regarding the repo for AoI & Bylaws [2019/06/03 04:14:20] 1. i'll help you convert the old stuff and include the changes that I know we made in the past [2019/06/03 04:14:26] including the not approved stuff [2019/06/03 04:14:32] b-man: iirc the tax prep concern is that it could interfere with getting us in good standing through a 'more proper' way [2019/06/03 04:14:45] robbat2: I used the wiki text to generate the rst [2019/06/03 04:14:53] regarding the git repo...I personally don't see a need to get a 5 person signoff on each git change [2019/06/03 04:15:04] 2. can you please wait a few weeks for me to get to the AoI/Bylaws ;-) [2019/06/03 04:15:08] robbat2: I am also not very fond of the 5-6 changelog records in the CVS [2019/06/03 04:15:15] antarus: agreed [2019/06/03 04:15:35] antarus: That is only for the initial commit... to ensure the document is accurate. [2019/06/03 04:15:39] you are the secretary, you get to make the changes we agree upon; there is an audit log (because git) [2019/06/03 04:15:40] I clearly noted this [2019/06/03 04:15:45] to be clear: I think if we 'show our work' as to the origin of the changes, it shouldn't matter for approval [2019/06/03 04:15:50] can we just use a cvs2git thing and archive the repo as historical? [2019/06/03 04:15:58] then start clean in our own repo based on that? [2019/06/03 04:16:14] the CVS history is arbitrary honestly [2019/06/03 04:16:18] with a refrence to historical [2019/06/03 04:16:18] not all the changes are in CVS [2019/06/03 04:16:21] ah [2019/06/03 04:16:33] it's email+CVS+wiki [2019/06/03 04:16:37] its cvs, random motions, wiki [2019/06/03 04:16:44] yep [2019/06/03 04:16:46] exactly [2019/06/03 04:16:47] yeah, probably bugzilla too [2019/06/03 04:16:54] sorry to ask again but patrick chinese name as been approved or not ?/ [2019/06/03 04:17:00] robbat2: So, how is that relevant to committing a document to Git so we can make further changes easier? [2019/06/03 04:17:04] alicef: it is approved [2019/06/03 04:17:05] would a motion to make git the canonical source be good? [2019/06/03 04:17:05] I'm compiling the motions [2019/06/03 04:17:18] antarus: thanks [2019/06/03 04:17:23] once git is ready that is [2019/06/03 04:17:43] alicef: specifically, approved subject to patrick confirming by text that the name is on their chinese ID, which I believe it is [2019/06/03 04:17:49] b-man: I think its an unfortunate consequence of the git data model [2019/06/03 04:18:01] antarus: huh? [2019/06/03 04:18:05] yes, the Git data model isn't a good fit to ask for confirming an initial commit [2019/06/03 04:18:09] since we're backfilling history [2019/06/03 04:18:14] b-man: because we would like to start with the originally filed AOI, + changes, to reach the present [2019/06/03 04:18:16] gerrit :D [2019/06/03 04:18:34] even Gerrit isn't really backfilling history [2019/06/03 04:18:36] b-man: as opposed to your model, wher ewe put in the current..and then..I'm not even sure how the backfill would work exactly. [2019/06/03 04:18:45] archive the history.... commit the current... send updates to NM [2019/06/03 04:18:47] rewritign the git history with the historical commits? a branch? [2019/06/03 04:19:23] I am not proposing to /dev/null the history, but I am not convinced it needs to be in the Git history... [2019/06/03 04:19:24] I don't have a ton of time left to stick around [2019/06/03 04:19:32] yeah, I have to leave as well [2019/06/03 04:19:34] needless to say I don't have strong opinons on this [2019/06/03 04:19:35] sorry what is the problem with foundation git ? [2019/06/03 04:19:52] alicef: it's regarding having explicit repos that track the history of the bylaws & AoI [2019/06/03 04:20:01] we can discuss this out of band [2019/06/03 04:20:07] and provide a canonical form [2019/06/03 04:20:10] alicef: currently these items are stored in the wiki and filed with the government [2019/06/03 04:20:15] we are not already doing it ? [2019/06/03 04:20:20] oh [2019/06/03 04:20:21] alicef: no, we are not [2019/06/03 04:20:21] alicef: not in git, no [2019/06/03 04:20:30] ok let's move it to git [2019/06/03 04:20:38] anything else re this, so we can go back to b-man's tax prep question? [2019/06/03 04:20:52] the government piece is irrelevant. We tell them what the by-laws and AoI are... [2019/06/03 04:21:08] they ensure it contains the required items and file it away [2019/06/03 04:21:08] not strictly true [2019/06/03 04:21:31] formally speaking, we're bound by the bylaws & AoI that are on file at a given time [2019/06/03 04:21:50] and they don't actually take effect until we have sent a filing [2019/06/03 04:21:58] Yes, but that is not relevant to us putting something in a repo and sending the new documents to them [2019/06/03 04:22:11] I expect b-man and robin to build a sane solution [2019/06/03 04:22:15] go hog wild [2019/06/03 04:22:16] that we might treat them as already filed before that point is a common law convience [2019/06/03 04:22:51] porting emails+CVS to Git commit logs seems pointless. Let's just create an archive of those items somewhere. [2019/06/03 04:23:21] tax prep: i have no objections to b-man trying to prepare all the docs, but I personally want review rights on the docs, partially because it's my ass on the line as current treasurer [2019/06/03 04:23:23] (and the CVS changelogs are meh) [2019/06/03 04:23:45] deliberate or accidental misrepresentations in the docs can impact me [2019/06/03 04:23:48] robbat2: Agreed on taxes. I will heavily rely on you for the accounting records [2019/06/03 04:24:19] I'm pretty sure there are no deliberate mispresentations in my preperation of financial records [2019/06/03 04:24:26] but I cannot assert the same of prior treasurer [2019/06/03 04:24:44] +1 for *all* trustees to have review rights on said documents [2019/06/03 04:24:46] the accidental side worries me to why I want professional review of the stuff [2019/06/03 04:24:53] beyond just trustees [2019/06/03 04:25:00] so we prepare, and CPA reviews/also-approves [2019/06/03 04:25:17] robbat2: Keep in mind, we are basically asking the IRS to forget and forgive the failures of the past. [2019/06/03 04:25:34] yes, I want want the list of what they are hand-waving to be small [2019/06/03 04:25:44] and blessed by somebody that says we tried our best [2019/06/03 04:26:01] Maybe we can get a cursory review from SFC [2019/06/03 04:26:09] if there's no other debates on it, we can table this for now [2019/06/03 04:26:17] and move on to open floor [2019/06/03 04:26:22] ack [2019/06/03 04:26:26] ack [2019/06/03 04:26:27] antarus: ok to table?
