| Treasurer Report |
| - Not much to say: In a good position, not much activity this month. No one had |
| any questions. |
| |
| Board Re-election: Application, seats, timeline |
| - Current board elections expire on August 12. We should re-elect the new board |
| before then. |
| - Legally, if the board doesn’t get it done by then, then the existing board |
| carries over until whenever the new one is voted in. |
| - The aim is to elect them in our August 8 meeting with an effective date of |
| August 12. |
| - Discussion about the actual application form and what is important to capture, |
| to increase transparency, more discussion will move to email. |
| - Goal is to send out application on July 13, provide a two week application |
| period and make time to review applicants. |
| |
| Developer meeting |
| - 88 applications so far. |
| - Tanya wants to change some things up in the format to improve it. |
| - Biggest complaints last year was the usefulness of the hackers lab, Tanya is |
| brainstorming ways to improve it by adding more structure, and getting people |
| to sign up to lead discussions ahead of time. |
| - Discussing adding a “research track” of talks, or a research BOF, to increase |
| student participation and academic discussion. |
| - 10 year anniversary of the developer meeting, thinking about doing some sort |
| of video that is fun to commemorate it during the reception, looking for ideas |
| on what to do. Maybe some sort of Razzie awards? |
| |
| Code of conduct |
| - It landed. |
| - Chandler is going to have some discussions with people about how to form the |
| advisory committee. |
| - At this point, the process isn’t decided, and the next steps aren’t clear. |
| The goal is for this to get worked out by next month. |
| - It is critical to figure this out before the developer meeting. |
| |
| LLVM Licensing |
| - No progress at all since last board meeting. Next meeting to discuss this is |
| Thursday July 14. |
| |
| Infrastructure |
| - Hosting APT on AWS is live, on track for being about 3TB a month. |
| - Concerned about it being abusive, Tanya and Anton will reach out to the Travis |
| people to see if they are using the right caching, etc. |
| - Anton talking to CDN providers that have discounts for open source projects. |
| - Anton and Tanya are evaluating different options and will continue discussing this. |

| Respectfully submitted, |
