Status Number Date Submitter Suggestion Comments
Action Taken 1 4 May 2009 John Plocher To make voting easier, replace the ssh based poll.os.o election system with a web based one that keys off of the member's os.o login auth info. Need to involve sch and tonic team, need to articulate needs/requirements, request consultation. MO to procure a "request template", JP to fill out. Done, website team working on UI, JW tracking.
Action Taken 2 6 May 2009 James Carlson Since the distinction between Core and non-Core Contributor is voting, you could make it a use-it-or-lose it franchise; those not voting in (say) 2 or more consecutive elections become Contributors, and need to be re-nominated for Core Contributorship. No ability to do this in the current constitution. JP Added to "new constitution" feedback.
OGB Reviewing 3 9 May 2009 Peter Tribble Need a mechanism to alert members and facilitators when membership grants are due to expire. People shouldn't have to manually poll. JP to look into y!Pipe stuff to highlight, ??? to look into how to do more active alerts, maybe use facilitators project and monthly report of new/expiring/expired grants, maybe automate in cron?
Action Taken 4 14 May 2009 Mail Man Admins/mods should moderate their mail queues and read the manual for list operation. List users should read the manual, too, and either subscribe to the lists or take the issue up with the list owners instead of wasting time with cyclical rants about how lists persecute the little people. World peace would be nice as well. JW provided a list of email list best practice areas to the website community, MO to add to website community FAQ
Action Taken 5 12 June 2009 Garrett D'Amore Should have an in memoriam page and status to recognize contributors who have passed. Complete, see http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Community+Group+ogb/In+Memoriam
