EB 2012-02-06 transcript

21:38 <~scshunt> let's get started, then 21:39 <~scshunt> Anyone have any business? 21:39 < RLim> approving minutes? 21:39 <~scshunt> last week was my week of hell, so I really haven't paid much attention to anything 21:39 <~scshunt> oh right, that 21:39 <~scshunt> can you link them? 21:40 < RLim> let's see. Where do we start? 21:40 < RLim> http://wiki.pirateparty.ca/index.php/EB_2012-01-09_minutes 21:41 <~scshunt> My comments would be to watch the tenses on "move"---should probably be "moved", and I'd prefer real names rather than nicknames 21:41 <~scshunt> since nicknames can change over time, and it might not be obvious that JMcLoed is CloudQc 21:41 <~scshunt> (as an example) 21:42 < CloudQc> JMcleod - 2secs lemme go on my JMcleod PC 21:42 -!- JMcleod [jack@ppca-F503BEEB.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #exec 21:42 < JMcleod> :) 21:42 <~scshunt> no worries 21:42 <~scshunt> I don't care myself 21:42 < JMcleod> its a kvm switch 21:43 < RLim> ok 21:43 <~scshunt> other than that, I think it looks good 21:43 < RLim> http://wiki.pirateparty.ca/index.php/EB_2012-01-16_minutes 21:44 <~scshunt> watch the tenses again; the adjournment line is confusing; perhaps just get rid of it? 21:45 <~scshunt> the second one, I mean 21:45 <~scshunt> err 21:45 <~scshunt> first adjournment line 21:45 < RLim> should we say no quorum? 21:45 <~scshunt> "president moved to adjourned" 21:45 <~scshunt> I don't particularly care either way 21:46 < RLim> ok 21:46 < RLim> http://wiki.pirateparty.ca/index.php/EB_2012-01-23_minutes 21:48 <~scshunt> The minutes shouldn't include summaries of debate and the like. It's probably worth it to create a separate page for them, but they shouldn't be in the minutes 21:48 <~scshunt> because otherwise we'll get into arguments about what people said and what was worth recording, since the minutes are an official records 21:48 <~scshunt> *record 21:49 < RLim> yeah there was really no motion made in that meeting 21:50 < JMcleod> yeah 1 motion last week, thats all there was 21:50 < JMcleod> since im VP 21:51 < RLim> http://wiki.pirateparty.ca/index.php/EB_2012-01-30_minutes 21:51 < RLim> that's from last week. 21:51 <~scshunt> Same thing there, with the Enigmail line 21:52 < RLim> yeah. done 21:53 <~scshunt> The 23rd minutes should include time of adjournment 21:53 < RLim> so 23rd I was in the U.S. so did not have time when it starts and ends. So removing the debates. Just have a line for meeting adjourned. 21:53 <~scshunt> ah ok 21:53 < RLim> http://wiki.pirateparty.ca/index.php/EB_2012-01-23_minutes 21:53 <~scshunt> does anyone have those handy? 21:53 <~scshunt> ah, adjourned at 23:38 21:53 <~scshunt> start time isn't in my scrollback 21:54 < RLim> okI got the start time 21:54 < RLim> done 21:54 <~scshunt> cool 21:54 <~scshunt> Any more corrections to these four sets of minutes? 21:56 < JMcleod> nope 21:56 < RLim> I'll remove the pending approval lines 21:57 <~scshunt> Ok, they stand approved as is 21:57 <~scshunt> RLim: are you able to lock them from editing? 21:58 < RLim> I can set edit to admin only 21:59 <~scshunt> ok, good 21:59 <~scshunt> Now, any other business? 21:59 < RLim> agenda 21:59 <~scshunt> agenda? 21:59 < RLim> for General Meeting 22:00 < JMcleod> well 22:00 <~scshunt> We have another meeting before the GM, and we don't set the agenda anyway 22:00 <~scshunt> although we probably want to remind the Toronto-Danforth candidate to show up 22:00 <~scshunt> RLim: Please be sure to include notice of the PC election and of Wilson's motion as well 22:01 < RLim> ok. I am just posting an announcement now 22:01 <~scshunt> I believe candidacy also requires notice, so it's important that we figure out whether or not that is going to be brought up 22:01 < RLim> then probably want to sent out e-mail notice this week 22:01 <~scshunt> I can't think of anything else requiring notice? 22:01 < RLim> so PC it's nomination to be followed by election 22:02 <~scshunt> the election will take place by party-wide vote 22:02 <~scshunt> I want to talk with Nuitari and psema4 about the voting system to make sure it's ready 22:04 <~scshunt> Oh right, I did have an item of business 22:05 < JMcleod> It was suggested by a member that we host a Diaspora pod. Would need to speak with IT dep about feasability, but cost-wise, would we be able to absorb server costs? 22:06 <~scshunt> Probably, but there are more pressing issues on the IT side, I think 22:06 <~scshunt> Oh right, we will have to do IT Director again 22:06 <~scshunt> I move that the Board adopt a special rule of order that meetings shall be held weekly on Mondays at 9:30 PM EST in #exec on irc://irc.pirateparty.ca/ 22:06 < RLim> ok so IT Director Election 22:07 < RLim> I second the motion 22:08 <~scshunt> Seconds aren't necessary in boards :) 22:08 <~scshunt> Any discussion? 22:08 < JMcleod> really^ 22:08 <~scshunt> Yeah, at least at our size anyway 22:08 <~scshunt> there's five people total 22:08 < JMcleod> good to know ;) 22:09 < JMcleod> I third the motion 22:09 <~scshunt> haha 22:09 <~scshunt> Ok, seeing no discuss, I'll put it to a vote. All in favor? 22:09 <~scshunt> aye 22:09 < JMcleod> yeah 22:09 < RLim> aye 22:10 <~scshunt> Ok, that's everybody, so I hope no one minds if I don't call for votes against :P 22:10 <~scshunt> The motion is adopted 22:10 <~scshunt> RLim: Do you think you could keep a separate page of motions still in effect and adopted rules for quick reference? 22:11 < RLim> yeah 22:11 <~scshunt> cool 22:12 < RLim> anything else to add on that page aside from this motion? 22:13 <~scshunt> The one about the membership fee from last week 22:13 < RLim> that expires next week. yeah I'll add it for now 22:14 < RLim> What are we doing that we want Toronto-Danforth guy to be present 22:14 < RLim> ? 22:14 <~scshunt> RLim: Considering him for candidacy 22:15 <~scshunt> Probably best to ask him if he would like his candidacy considered 22:15 <~scshunt> and if so, add "selection of a candidate for Toronto-Danforth" or the like to the notice 22:15 < RLim> Ok, I'll post on the forum 22:15 <~scshunt> is he a regular? might be best to email 22:16 < RLim> Here's the announcement for the General Meeting. 22:16 < RLim> https://www.pirateparty.ca/forum/index.php?topic=1782.0 22:16 < RLim> Would have to sent out an e-mail this Wednesday 22:16 <~scshunt> ok 22:17 <~scshunt> Oh, that's loki 22:17 <~scshunt> right 22:17 <~scshunt> I should fix the application process 22:17 <~scshunt> (the post, I mean) 22:17 * scshunt adds to todo 22:22 < JMcleod> so anything else? 22:27 <~scshunt> Uh, I guess not.
