    • #info === Ticket #81 ===
      • #info "Migrating to Pagure"
      • #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/ticket/81
      • #info It is now possible for us to migrate from Trac to Pagure (the importer tool was recently completed by cverna). A staging repo of what the import looks like exists on the Pagure staging instance. Since we now have the tooling, we should set a hard date for migrating the entire Trac over to Pagure and begin retiring it. Rough timeline detailed in ticket.
      • #link https://stg.pagure.io/stg-fedora-commops/issues
      • #idea Migration date: Mon, 2016 Aug 29? +1/0/-1?
    • #info === Ticket #78 ===
      • #info "Automating a check-in to evaluate activity of members"
      • #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/ticket/78
      • #info Two ways to do it: Infra-style with a manual post sent monthly, or could use Fedocal to automate this once a month as check-in calendar event to query members on regular, consistent basis. Non-responders would be removed from the FAS group hypothetically. Need to discuss implementation and if this is something we want to do.
      • #idea Would this be necessary for active members to also complete every month? Is it better to separate into two "groups" - apprentices and regular members?
    • #info === Ticket #10 ===
      • #info "CommOps vFAD 2016"
      • #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/ticket/10
      • #info Based on Flock outcome, likely reasonable to begin planning out our own FAD event. Can opt for an in-person FAD at first, and if necessary, fall back to virtual event. Would be held in 2017 (after February / March when budget for next fiscal year allocated). First steps would be for defining purpose and matching up to outcomes and results that align with Fedora mission. We can start now by using mattdm's logic model template and identifying key areas for us to focus on as team.

    • #info === Ticket #70 ===
      • #info "FOSS Student Pack"
      • #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/ticket/70
      • #info Key thing to get out of this is less on physical / costly items, more on providing resources / tools to point people towards contributing to open source and subsequently Fedora, e.g. IRC client, bouncer service, development tools, software in Fedora, etc.)
      • #idea Key to the gate: FAS account (guide to register and what a FAS account gives you access to)
      • #idea Java IDE: Eclipse
      • #idea IRC client: HexChat (IRC beginner guide, how to use HexChat, etc.)
      • #idea Photo editing: DarkTable (what it does, guides for using it, etc.)
      • #idea Creating Fedora USB media: Whatever the preferred tool now is for creating media correctly and with stability (Fedora Media Writer?)
      • The list can go on…
    • #info === Tickets #34 ===
      • #info #34: "[Onboarding Series] [MASTER TICKET] Creating sub-project on-boarding badge series"
      • #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-commops/ticket/34
      • #info Infrastructure ticket put on hold while current blocking issues are resolved. More detail in the ticket. For now, we need to decide and focus on a new sub-project / team to focus on. jflory7 would like to propose the Python SIG as a team that is in need of some assistance and help. Having difficulties on-boarding new members effectively. Need to find ways for communicating this better and how to make it simpler for getting involved. See rough notes for Flock as a primer on this one.
