CALL: Sunday, May 26th at 17:00 UTC

This call will indeed be happen May 26 at 17:00 UTC. I apologize for uncritically copying from the wiki that the call will happen on Sunday the 25th.

Since I likely can’t make it to the call tomorrow (I have an appointment down town), I shared my agenda items with @jvalleroy. Here is a summary of the items I hoped to bring up:

  1. Additional storage device for LIME2: would we prefer a second SD card slot? Or a big case that fits an external storage storage device connected to the SATA port?

  2. Code of conduct and community governance: Since the FBF is applying for a grant that expects winners to have a code of conduct, I think it is a good idea for us to create on.

My thought is that we should base our CoC on another project’s existing CoC, which we can modify over the course of community discussion. I’m thinking we could use two things:

i. For basic community conduct, the Debian CoC:
https://www.debian.org/code_of_conduct

ii. For the other project governance matters, we should use Mozilla’s checklist as a blueprint: https://github.com/mozilla/diversity/blob/master/evaluation_tools/governance-basic.md

In my opinion, we are already in compliance with most of the Mozilla checklist items. Here are the ones that I think we could work on:

a. Informally doing but could be better: “Our project leadership is designed with cycles of feedback and review”
b. Not doing but would like to do: “Responsibilities of leadership are clearly documented.”
c. Could do better: “We strive to encourage and recognizes the quietest voices, and not just those with the most confidence, and volume.”
d. Not doing but would be very easy to create an opt-in convention (e.g. if preferred, anyone can add their pronouns next to their name in agenda items): “We have provided a way for everyone to share their pronouns, and respect those in our conversations and communication.”

  1. Bounty item: It would be great to have a bounty section

  2. Last, we might want to discuss @kat85’s issue with encrypted disks: Mount encrypted ext4 disk
