MODM Next Steps

[Tom Nadeau]

 

                Hi,

 

                Firstly, apologies for being remiss in following up on this. I hope we can keep the momentum going here.

 

                A few updates:

               

1)       I created http://www.no-org.org as a landing pad for things we want to work on here.  This is really just a place holder so people can

find things.   If people need a home for projects, this is a place where we can put it too.  If others want to modify the site/improve it/whatever,
let me know and I will get you access.

 

2)       As I mentioned last time, unless someone objected (which no one did) we will continue using the MODM mailer on Google that we

created for the original meeting.  It is light weight and seems to work. The only hitch is when new people want to sign up – it needs approval from Benson or myself right now. This is to prevent spammers from joining. Other than that, we let anyone join.

 

3)       Periodic sync ups.

 

Do people want to have project calls/IRC meetings at some regular interval?  Do you need support for things like mailing lists/github/etc… ?

I have thought about setting up a slack team/project with chats for each project that is active. What do you all think about this?

 

4)       Next face-to-face meetup. 

 

Many have expressed an interest in a follow-up.  First, we need to cover some logistics – specifically shared cost. I think Gershon had volunteered Intel’s office space for our next meeting. Is that still available?  We also need someone to sponsor the drinks/food for the next meeting. If we can’t, then it will be BYO.  Secondly,
when to have this? I think the last 2 weeks of June are probably the first possible time to have this.  The week after that my company is shut down/I am on PTO, so

The proceeding couple of weeks in July are an option too. There is an IETF meeting at the end of July so we need to avoid that week.
