Dear community, Below are the meeting minutes from our last Board meeting. = Board Meeting Monday 2023-01-02 13:00 CET = * Present: Attila, Doug, Gerald, Neal, Syds * Excused: Maurizio * Missed: Gertjan == First Meeting as new Board == * Neal created new Telegram group for the 2023 board. * New board co-opts Syds as Treasurer again * Doug, as new board member, to follow https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_best_practices#Joining_the_Board and complete that page. * Agreement (for now) to retain time slot for this meeting. == OBS blacklist/reporting == * Doug brought up a concern about how to do this for inappropriate content on OBS * Neal suggests that the OBS frontend should be extended to add a "report abuse" form to privately report things to the OBS admins (should require being logged in). Fedora COPR does this to reduce spam and ensure that COPR admins are aware and can take action when they administrate the instance. == FOSDEM == * Booth accepted Meeting closed at 13:53 CET v/r Doug

Workshop Report from Week 2 (Jan. 10)
by ddemaio 11 Jan '23

11 Jan '23

Hi all, I wanted to send off a report from yesterday’s Google Summer of Code Workshop we did. We had 20+ attendees show up throughout the hour-long session. We had a few new projects added to 101.opensuse.org. We also discussed some items to help increase awareness for the projects we can offer should openSUSE be selected as a mentoring organization. Furthermore, we plan to have a meeting on Feb. 7 at 15:30 UTC to finalize the projects we will include in our application for GSoC. The submission deadline for the GSoC application is at 18:00 UTC on the same date, but all mentoring projects should be listed quickly as evaluations begin after 18:00 UTC on the same day. If you are interested in being a mentor, please create an issue at https://github.com/openSUSE/mentoring/issues and with all the details and label it with a tag as either a large-size (350 hrs) or medium-size (175 hrs) project. The submitter of the issue will be listed as one of the mentors. Two mentorings (1 primary, 1 backup) are recommended for a project. We encourage anyone in the community to participate who is willing to mentor as it can help with the specific projects/packages you may be focusing on and serves as a great avenue to bring people into open-source development as well as the project. If you have any ideas for cross collaboration with other organizations/project, we welcome that. Please email ddemaio(a)opensuse.org if you have any questions about GSoC. I’ll be serving as the admin and be submitting the application for our participation. Have a lot of fun! v/r Doug

Hi all, The community meeting that normally takes place on Tuesdays at 15:30 UTC will be replaced this week with the following workshop: Tomorrow we will be having a workshop to collect project ideas for Google Summer of Code mentoring and will also have students who want to be mentored. I'll be sending in the GSOC application soon, so knowing how many people are willing to mentor will really help with our application. If you are interested in mentoring, please join us. It's a great way to bring people into whatever project you are working on. More details are at https://news.opensuse.org/2022/12/14/project-plans-workshop-to-grow-mentors… Add your projects at https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/GSoC2023WS Thursday community meeting will take place at 20:00 UTC.
