I also talked a decent amount with the people running a 16:11:54 meetup in Hamburg this Friday and their event has been posted to the events section of the blog / on Twitter. 16:11:57 I was also off 2 days last week 16:12:30 what is Irdeto? 16:12:52 A company that sends DMCA notices, however they are sending hundreds a week to exit operators with exit policies that allow BitTorrent. 16:13:00 And its upsetting upstreams 16:13:00 dang 16:13:15 Phoul: do you know if the hamburg meeting will be in german or english? 16:13:46 stephw: I believe it will be both, but I just sent an email to Kantorkel to confirm. All of their postings have been in both English and German. 16:13:53 thanks! 16:14:02 anyone else have an update? 16:14:41 I will go 16:15:15 I spent a lot of time in the last couple of weeks on a last minute supplemental grant proposal, so that unfortunately took time away from other things. but the good news is that I got the grant. :) 16:15:24 Yay! 16:15:26 nice!! 16:15:31 LFI is in week 13 and I'm starting to plan for recruitment at the end of the year 16:15:31 woo!! 16:15:31 super!! 16:15:50 :) 16:15:51 Mexico City meeting stuff is going well! we should have a preliminary agenda to share soon. the meeting planners meeting happens right after this one. 16:15:57 Recruitment for the next group? 16:15:59 yes 16:16:00 for 2019 16:16:27 flexlibris: can I email you with some questions re: the mexico city meeting? 16:16:35 wayward sure 16:16:43 thanks! 16:16:46 there are some things I had on the roadmap for this month that I think we should move to next month 16:16:57 ggus specifically the TBA manual and support answers 16:17:02 we won't be able to get to that before the end of August 16:17:46 that's it for my update 16:17:48 anyone else have one? 16:18:42 ok, i'll return from kenya, sept 9th 16:18:47 great 16:19:42 what about we take 5 minutes to organize september roadmap like august? 16:19:53 sure, let's just look through the remaining August things first 16:20:01 oh ok! 16:20:15 update relay operator wiki with user advocate feedback -- Phoul? 16:20:45 This is ongoing, I believe everything from Cy should be in there by the end of the month.

I've talked with him a bit since PETS, but I think the majority of this will happen face-to-face. 16:24:53 okay let's move it to September then 16:25:09 should we also move the relay challenge to September? 16:25:19 actually just tell me which relay things to move :) 16:26:15 The summit, relay challenge and offloading are all ongoing and will continue into September. 16:26:17 oh, about localization lab AMA: emma is talking with them and we're going to have this activity before mexico meeting. maybe september 17th 16:26:29 or september 14th 16:26:37 oh okay great, so since it's scheduled we can cross it off 16:27:08 how about "merge fallback directory mirror list"? 16:28:34 oops, missed that one. That is currently waiting on more responses from relay operators, I'd leave it in August for now as it could be done this week; but if not it will be ongoing. I think we are within 10 relays of being able to merge. 16:28:43 okay cool no prob 16:29:06 "publish stories on why people should use Tor in Bengali speaking websites" ? 16:29:30 kushal? 16:29:45 oh and another, "dgplug privacy meetup in Pune" 16:30:47 maybe kushal is no longer here? 16:30:48 that's okay 16:30:53 that's most of August, so we're good 16:30:59 and ggus has helpfully organized September's roadmap :) 16:31:24 anybody have anything else to discuss? 16:31:48 :D 16:32:16 seems like no 16:32:26 okay, I will see some of you in the Mexico City planning meeting soon 16:32:29 #endmeeting
