I have a bunch of backlog, and swati deserves a fast reply. 17:15:20 Who are the mentors again? 17:15:29 I won't be able this week to provide something quickly. Sorry :( 17:15:43 catalyst is the mentor for the network team 17:15:51 go ahead and assign to me 17:15:52 catalyst: can you do the review? 17:15:57 thanks :) 17:16:23 awesome, thanks catalyst 17:16:24 catalyst: if possible, let's err on the side of helping her fix this rather than making her do it all herself, since it's her first patch? 17:17:05 nickm: yes, of course 17:17:26 thanks! 17:17:35 cool, i will move to the next item 17:17:44 * We should start doing monthly reports to tor-project@lists.torproject.org. Here is a pad: https://pad.riseup.net/p/bVWhsCUgnv1bxDgpyiYU - 17:17:58 so i would like to have monthly reports like all of the other teams are doing to show what we have been up to 17:18:12 i would really appriciate if people can spend five minutes filling out what they have been hacking on during september in that pad 17:18:24 ahf: we can get the s27 stuff from last report 17:18:29 i will put it together with some more description and end it to tor-project@ tomorrow 17:18:30 the same with s31 17:18:33 I will add it to the pad 17:18:56 gaba: true, i added those two sponsors with placeholders for now since i wasnt sure what the best approach would be here :-) 17:19:24 and think of this task as something we do such that the rest of the org can have a better understanding of what we are up to, without having to read the summaries/logs from these meetings every week 17:19:34 yes, sounds good 17:19:51 we can do this async after the meeting or whatever, i might prod you tomorrow about things if i feel something is missing 17:19:56 lets go to next item unless there are any questions 17:20:07 * Swati's PR should be distribute it for review: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/31943 17:20:11 sounds like this one got handled 17:20:20 the next item is then: 17:20:21 * How we move forward with this S27 ticket to be included in 0.4.3: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/14389 17:20:34 dgoulet writes there is a meeting about this tomorrow 17:20:44 gaba: does that answer your Q? ^ 17:20:50 yes but i understood there were some concerns from nickm about it 17:21:06 is this something to resolve tomorrow or do we need to discuss anything here? 17:21:29 If there's a meeting happening, I trust folks to make a good decision there. 17:21:36 ok. sounds good 17:22:03 great 17:22:38 If there's a candidate design I can offer feedback? 17:22:40 okay, then we are at a point where i am unsure what next step is. we have the 3 policies that we discuss right now. do we bring them up individually and people can ask questions and discuss it and then move to the next one or what does people think here? 17:22:59 IIUC discussion/voting is in progress on the list? 17:23:04 that is what i think too 17:23:29 so we do a round of discussion at our meeting during the week where a given policy was submitted to take some of the discussion that fits better for irc? 17:23:45 last meeting we had we spend around 50% of the time talking about these, so not doing those every week would probably be good 17:23:55 is there a policy stuck in that pipe? 17:24:36 the pull request one? i am rewording that one. got some feedback from nickm last week to make it more verbose. think i will get it done today and then we will have a round of discussion on that one 17:25:15 or was it something else, dgoulet? 17:25:56 nea I was just asking if one of the 3 pending on the list, if any of them are stuck 17:26:08 as in obvious disagreement 17:26:38 ah, hmmmm, i think those 3 are all progressing? 17:26:48 I think that the second two proposals on the list haven't had disagreements so far, though we might see a revision on "commit bits for ci" with asn's suggestion 17:26:59 yeah 17:27:49 great 17:28:03 oki 17:28:20 * ahf looks if there is people who needs help with stuff 17:28:55 swati's item have been dealt with 17:29:06 mikeperry: you ok with your list of items that might get dropped? i think it keeps getting smaller? 17:29:45 ahf: yes, it seems to be.. 17:29:52 oki, great 17:29:59 does anybody have anything else for this meeting? 17:30:12 nickm, mikeperry: you two have the writing a draft for the blog 17:30:26 about the paper on web fingerprinting. is this something you can start doing this week? 17:30:33 whoever just added a ton of text about onion service work to the september pad: thank you! 17:30:41 (i do not see it in the list of things that may get dropped :P ) 17:30:42 I am going to have to try. It will be hard. 17:31:16 ok, as we do not have a clear deadline is not high priority over other things but may get into a priority soon 17:31:18 yeah I have it as a question mark for this week instead.. I suppose it should be in the might get dropped idk 17:31:23 ahhh 17:31:24 ok 17:31:36 do we have a firm publication deadline yet? no right? 17:31:41 nop 17:31:46 he said two weeks but not clear 17:33:09 that is all from me... 17:33:26 oki :-) 17:33:29 anything else? 17:33:46 * dgoulet is good 17:33:55 I'm doing ok 17:33:56 then to repeat GT in #tor-project today: i wish you all a wonderful week! 17:33:57 o/ 17:33:59 #endmeeting
