+06:52 < whot> good morning gentlemen
+06:52 <+alanc> good afternoon
+06:54 < mupuf_> hey guys :)
+06:55 -!- stukreit [~skreitma@inet-hqmc02-o.oracle.com] has joined #xf-bod
+06:56 -!- marcoz [~oftc-webi@masquerade.micron.com] has joined #xf-bod
+07:01 < marcoz> 2pm? did I miss the meeting?
+07:01 < stukreit> hello!
+07:01 < whot> marcoz: nope, just starting now
+07:02 <+alanc> we'd gotten as far as hello
+07:02 < marcoz> ah, whew, I just noticed the title
+07:02 < whot> emmes, keithp, agd5f ping
+07:02 < marcoz> pdt.doh!  
+07:02 <+egbert> i don;t think emmes will be arond today
+07:02 <+egbert> around even
+07:02 < marcoz> ok, I'm done with caffeine for the day
+07:02 < stukreit> egbert: hiya!
+07:03 < agd5f> hi
+07:03 <+egbert> hi guys!
+07:03 <+egbert> hi stukreit!
+07:03 <+alanc> oh hey, I guess I should check the election db to see who got elected
+07:03 <+alanc> egbert might be a board member now
+07:03 < stukreit> I did not see an announcement, probably buried in the email
+07:03 < marcoz> i hear it was a close race
+07:04 <+alanc> stukreit: because we all forgot to check and make one
+07:04 <+alanc> hmm, I see the vote totals, but not the count of votes
+07:05 < mupuf_> alanc: wait wait, is it already the end?
+07:05 < keithp> whot: ahoy
+07:05 <+alanc> http://www.x.org/wiki/BoardOfDirectors/Elections/2014/ says it ended Sunday, Mar. 16
+07:05 < mupuf_> keithp: Speaking czech now?
+07:05 <+alanc> which also happens to be the date I entered in the election db to stop taking votes
+07:05 < mupuf_> damn, I'm so sorry for doing such a poor job for the election!
+07:06 < keithp> mupuf_: pirate
+07:06 < mupuf_> keithp: interesting :) Didn't know English pirates greeted like that
+07:06 < keithp> mupuf_: czech pirate
+07:06 < marcoz> Czech pirates.
+07:07 <+alanc> the membership system says we have 83 active members, so 25% quorum would be 21 members
+07:07 < mupuf_> alanc: last time I checked, we were past the quorum
+07:08 < mupuf_> I added the numbers of "1st choice"
+07:08 <+alanc> looks like we had at least 35 votes
+07:09 < mupuf_> I count 37, but it doesn't matter
+07:09 <+alanc> oh, yeah, if you add down the first column, 37
+07:10 <+alanc> I'd added across each row, and multiple candidate got votes from 35 people
+07:10 <+alanc> we can make an official announcement mail, but I think it's safe to say we know the election outcome
+07:10 < mupuf_> yeah, I should send this email
+07:10 < mupuf_> I'll see if I can find last year's email
+07:11 <+alanc> step 15 in the election wiki is "Once the results have been approved by the election committee, they should be presented at a full Board of Directors for certification. If the full board approves that the election has been run properly and agrees that the results are valid, then a formal vote to certify the results can be called for and voted upon."
+07:11 <+alanc> does the board wish to certify this election and allow mupuf to announce the results to the members?
+07:11 < stukreit> +1
+07:11 < marcoz> +1
+07:11 < mupuf_> +1
+07:12 < keithp> +1
+07:12 < agd5f> +1
+07:12 <+alanc> +1
+07:13 < mupuf_> whot: ?
+07:13 < whot> +1
+07:14 < whot> vote carried, mupuf_ feel free to send the announcement
+07:14 < mupuf_> ok, I'll do it before going to bed
+07:15 <+alanc> yes, confirmed via SQL that there were 37 votes cast in this election
+07:15 < marcoz> is that up from last year?
+07:15 <+alanc> mupuf: an old example is http://foundation.x.org/pipermail/members/2006-November/000368.html
+07:16 < mupuf_> alanc: thanks, I was looking for one
+07:16 <+alanc> marcoz: slightly - last year was 34
+07:16 < marcoz> alanc: woot!  I'll take it.
+07:16 <+alanc> mupuf_: that link is in the election wiki page I had to look at to find the sql query instructions, so was already on my screen
+07:18 <+alanc> sorry for disrupting the agenda whot
+07:19 < whot> that's fine, the agenda for today was almost empty anyway bar XDC/SPI updates
+07:20 -!- alanc [~alanc@inet-hqmc07-o.oracle.com] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
+07:20 -!- alanc [~alanc@inet-hqmc07-o.oracle.com] has joined #xf-bod
+07:20 -!- mode/#xf-bod [+v alanc] by ChanServ
+07:20 < keithp> SPI has a meeting in a few weeks, Bdale is charged with writing a proposed agenda item for that
+07:20 < whot> alanc: i thought you were so sorry you committed irc seppuku :)
+07:21 < keithp> I don't think there are any other pending items there, other than working on our asset list
+07:21 <+alanc> heh, no, the joys of having to connect via http proxy from work, sometimes it drops
+07:21 < whot> keithp: ok, thanks. mupuf_ any updates worth mentioning for XDC?
+07:22 < mupuf_> whot: no updates for XDC
+07:22 < mupuf_> I can talk a little about GSoC though
+07:22 < whot> oh, right - yes please
+07:22 < mupuf_> well, not much to say except that the student application deadline is tomorrow
+07:22 < mupuf_> and so far, we have 4 candidates
+07:23 < mupuf_> well, as of yesterday, we had 4 candidates
+07:23 < mupuf_> I haven't checked today
+07:23 < mupuf_> we also have plenty of mentors who connected with the organization
+07:26 <+alanc> but do we have mentors that overlap the areas the students want to work on?
+07:27 < agd5f> so far, yes
+07:28 <+alanc> good
+07:28 < mupuf_> is there anything else one would like to know?
+07:31 <+alanc> where is MH370?
+07:31 <+alanc> or were you just offering GSoC answers?
+07:32 < mupuf_> alanc: MH370 is the plane?
+07:32 < stukreit> I got sent a picture of gilligan's island with the plane on it.
+07:32 <+alanc> yes, the missing Malaysian Airlines flight
+07:33 < mupuf_> alanc: you're supposed to be the oracle, not me ;)
+07:40 < whot> sorry, got distracted here. mupuf_ what's the wayland component of the gsocs? just out of interest
+07:41 < mupuf_> whot: good question
+07:41 < mupuf_> I saw plenty of proposals for wayland on the ML
+07:41 < mupuf_> but let me check which ones translated into a real application
+07:42 < mupuf_> none
+07:42 < mupuf_> we have 2 CL proposals
+07:42 < mupuf_> one on glamor
+07:42 < mupuf_> and one on nouveau/perf counters (same student as last year)
+07:43 < whot> ok
+07:43 < whot> alright, in that case I think we're done for today. Anyone have anything else to discuss?
+07:44 < mupuf_> not that I can think of
+07:45 < whot> ok, in that case - see you guys in two weeks
