Check for Agenda Additions 18:33:52 Not here. 18:34:07 jeoff? 18:34:11 no additions here 18:34:17 #topic 2. Current Topics 18:34:53 Next month we will have Dwain. That seems to be under control, so no reason to go over it. Besides maybe send out an announcement to the list 18:36:05 #topic 3. Future Topics 18:36:14 Saying that that message that we sent you last month, and then sent out a correction, and then sent out another correction, and then....??? 18:36:40 bdmc: something like that 18:36:58 I think people now know we are focusing on next meeting 18:37:31 jeoff: You are committed ( or should be committed B-) ) for April? 18:37:35 yeah 18:37:44 So May. 18:38:14 I had suggested, sort of in passing, some kind of round table or group discussion, or something. 18:38:51 Did we have that sort of with the WFH stuff? 18:39:06 bdmc: Sure. When? And, topic? 18:39:25 I still want (one of us) to reach out to Dr. Jasper to see if he is game to talk 18:39:43 I have suggested a revisiting of "The History of Linux," or "How We Came To Be," or, for that matter, other topics. 18:40:16 There are certainly people in the group who have personal knowledge of some of the "Ancient History of Unix." 18:40:52 Ok. Also remember we got a list of topics people are interested on 18:41:00 We might also see if anybody wants to participate in "Odd Computing Platforms That We Have Used." 18:41:25 I didn't see much in your latest conversation, but maybe I missed it. 18:41:45 That was an email to the list. I will compile and post to steering 18:42:03 Anything interesting in particular? 18:42:57 I will have to look, Incidentally, https://steering.trilug.org/wiki/index.php/UpcomingMeetings is now current 18:43:10 I was hoping that something had caught your eye, but I guess not. 18:43:35 I need to write it down or I will not remember 18:44:45 I was wondering whether round tables or the like might not be more appealing to participants than formal presentations. 18:45:48 bdmc: based on January's meeting, we seem to get a lot of people in those round tables. Sometimes it becomes a two-people-talk-and-the-rest-listen but that is more of a catherding issue 18:46:44 I --- Darn - recruiter phone call 18:46:57 With that said, I think people were asking for stuff that can become projects the can do and then use them as something they can use to help job hunting 18:55:10 I will put the list on the steering list later on today. I will ask all of you to put any thoughts you have so we can decide how we will handle them 18:55:17 indeed 18:55:42 #topic 4. Tech Items 18:55:44 we can strategically use the next few meetings to get refine the ideas we have for future informal presentations 18:55:55 jeoff: Good idea 18:56:16 Also, use the mailing list instead of waiting an entire week to talk about it 18:56:30 yeah, I'm not great about that 18:56:43 I will skip the Moya stuff because Matt is not here 18:58:02 raub: I plan to send an email to the steering list Wednesday soliciting a planning meeting so we can be very clear on the body of work before we touch anything 18:58:19 Sounds like a plan 19:00:02 Anything else we want to cover? 19:00:25 nope 19:01:08 I will assume bdmc is also done for today 19:01:19 So, thanks for showing up 19:01:23 #endmeeting
