+[21:46:53] [I have joined #xf-bod]
+[21:49:19] <jcristau> hi, secretary 
+[22:00:15] <danvet> secretary: howdy
+[22:01:04] <egbert> hi!
+[22:01:04] <danvet> secretary, howdy
+[22:01:04] <secretary> danvet: I'm just the secretary, dutifully keeping logs of this meeting
+[22:01:11] <danvet> ah, still as silly as ever
+[22:01:15] * danvet needs to fix the parser
+[22:01:23] <robclark> o/
+[22:01:27] <danvet> \o
+[22:02:06] <danvet> first item: dear US, pls align your DST change with everyone else, thx
+[22:03:42] <danvet> whot_, agd5f, mupuf, marcoz, keithp: around?
+[22:03:42] <robclark> heh
+[22:03:59] <egbert> danvet: we could also decide to go by a TZ
+[22:04:08] <marcoz> hi danvet 
+[22:04:09] <danvet> twice a year 2 weeks of chaos with meetings is just silly
+[22:04:11] <marcoz> et al
+[22:04:44] <danvet> ah right, whot said he's flying around or something
+[22:05:49] <robclark> danvet, we could always shift it by 10min increments for 6 weeks ;-)
+[22:06:13] <danvet> Agenda: gsoc, elections, x.org
+[22:06:17] <danvet> anything else?
+[22:06:24] <danvet> aka agenda bashing while we wait for more
+[22:07:50] <marcoz> robclark, thinking outside the box (sorry, now it's innovative thinking).  i like it. ;)
+[22:08:08] <danvet> the important part is that every country changes in a slightly different way
+[22:08:13] <robclark> :-P
+[22:08:18] <danvet> some could do 20' steps in 3 weeks
+[22:08:45] <danvet> the goal is to create maximum chaos and overlap in your meeting schedules
+[22:09:06] * danvet tries to pack them perfectly
+[22:09:40] <egbert> i'd opt for shift looking like a  'damped oscillation'
+[22:10:20] <marcoz> egbert, overdamped, underdamped or critically damped ?
+[22:10:35] <danvet> everyone differently damped is the maxim we should aim for
+[22:10:58] <danvet> and a few definitely underdamped to make sure we maximize chaos
+[22:11:13] <danvet> "why did that meeting suddenly move from evening to morning ..."
+[22:11:45] <danvet> the cows would love it
+[22:12:04] <danvet> hm, still no quorum :(
+[22:13:38] <danvet> well, election update: nomination period extended by 2 weeks because big pile of late nominations
+[22:13:54] <danvet> robclark, anything from server I should note in minutes?
+[22:14:07] <danvet> egbert, I guess we can keep handling x.org in private mails?
+[22:14:08] <robclark> naw
+[22:14:37] <egbert> marcoz: it has to oscillate nicely, so i guess this is underdamped in you nomenclature.
+[22:14:45] <robclark> nothing really happened from my end since last mtg (was @ linaro one week, and catching up since then)
+[22:14:52] <egbert> danvet: yes.
+[22:15:30] <egbert> i've just checked, the glue records have been fixed.
+[22:15:43] <egbert> i will send Leon an email thanking him.
+[22:15:44] <danvet> oh awesome
+[22:16:00] <danvet> same here, and apologizing for being under the rug for reasons
+[22:16:08] <danvet> egbert, thx a lot for handling this
+[22:16:25] <egbert> danvet: np.
+[22:16:53] <danvet> ok, I think no one else will show up, no quorum
+[22:17:01] <danvet> and neither mupuf nor agd5f here for gsoc update
+[22:17:08] <danvet> so I think we can call it a day
+[22:17:47] <danvet> or anything else?
+[22:19:27] <robclark> nothing here
+[22:20:23] <danvet> oh, forgot one thing: sorry for not being around last meeting, I was super tired and simply fell asleep :(
+[22:20:52] <marcoz> egbert, it's been too long.  i just remember there are 3 types of dampening.   ;/  
+[22:21:29] <danvet> I thought underdamping is when it oscillates for too long
+[22:21:47] <danvet> and overdamping is when it creeps back into a relaxed change after an impulse way too slowly
+[22:22:12] <robclark> underdamped is when it isn't damped enough ;-)
+[22:22:24] * danvet not going to attempt asciiart in irc
+[22:22:29] <robclark> heheh
+[22:22:31] <marcoz> what about when it grows larger and larger?
+[22:22:35] <danvet> ok, sounds like besides silliness nothing else to discuss
+[22:22:39] <robclark> underdamped is when it bounces too long ;-)
+[22:22:48] <danvet> marcoz, robclark, egbert thx and goodnight!
