= Board Meeting Monday 2022-08-29 13:00 CEST = * Present: Gerald, Gertjan, Mau, Neal * Guests: Luna, Lubos, Marcel R, ddemaio, Emily * Excused: Axel, Attila, Syds == URL of the public board meeting room not on Wiki. Intentional? == * Lubos noted https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_meetings does not refer to the Jitsi meeting room? * Is this intentional? No, it's not. * Gertjan added the URL to en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board during the meeting == openSUSE sponsored mirrors == * Someone running an openSUSE mirror reached out to ddemaio about openSUSE offering some sort of sponsorship to help with expenses for the mirror. * The discussion regarding this topic is considered contrary to the purpose of sponsoring the project. The view is that paying for infrastructure for the project sets a bad precedent and is counter to the volunteerism of the project. * ddemaio: Requester has been notified. == openSUSE Foundation Update == * As promised, Gerald followed up to Patrick's summary with detailed comments/questions. * That was the last action in that thread in those last two weeks. Is there even interest? Meeting closed at 13:13 CEST
