Dec 15 14:00:08 Roll call Dec 15 14:00:34 dabbott, SwifT quantumsummers|c Dec 15 14:00:36 I'm logging too, present Dec 15 14:00:50 SwifT, said he may not make it Dec 15 14:00:51 make it just in time Dec 15 14:00:52 hello Dec 15 14:00:52 SwifT: said he is on the road Dec 15 14:01:01 just have to take my coat off Dec 15 14:01:09 sorry SwifT hello :) Dec 15 14:01:13 np Dec 15 14:01:23 We have a quorum - lets start Dec 15 14:01:24 and I still drove within the limits :p Dec 15 14:01:30 * quantumsummers|c may have to run off to manage kids from time to time Dec 15 14:02:00 hi quantumsummers|c Betelgeuse o/ Dec 15 14:02:14 Foundation Activity Tracker - looks like everything is up to date Dec 15 14:02:48 dabbott, Quarterly Financial Statements ... Dec 15 14:03:17 I put together that wiki page for review, is this what we want to do? Dec 15 14:03:41 if it is just need the numbers to proceed Dec 15 14:03:57 dabbott, looks good to me. Do yo intend to bigrate the history? Dec 15 14:04:07 working on packaging them now dabbott Dec 15 14:04:09 migrate* Dec 15 14:04:09 yes Dec 15 14:04:27 quantumsummers|c: sounds good :) Dec 15 14:05:09 quantumsummers|c, your turn ... Treasurer Report (I missed that) Dec 15 14:06:47 * SwifT guesses one of his kids ran off ;) Dec 15 14:07:24 if he says we have $15M, I change my mind about that desk ;) Dec 15 14:07:26 looks lke quantumsummers|c is rounding up children ... Swift your turn Gentoo Trademark License Agreement Dec 15 14:07:33 well we dont have that Dec 15 14:07:46 quantumsummers|c: the floor is yours Dec 15 14:08:23 gonna have to come back .. runs Dec 15 14:08:34 ok, i'll do a bit on the trademark license then Dec 15 14:08:45 I wrote up a new text based on the django one and sent it to you guys Dec 15 14:08:46 hes outnumbered :) Dec 15 14:09:01 i have a few things I'm not certain about, mentioned as notes in the document Dec 15 14:09:35 the most important one is to know if the new license has at least the same things are the current one Dec 15 14:10:02 if it does, then there is no issue with people/orgnizations that based the name/logo usage on the previous (well, current ;-) license Dec 15 14:10:03 SwifT, I only have some trivia ... but I'm nervous about the council representing Gentoo Dec 15 14:10:28 I could drop that part; Django had something like that so I just copied ;) Dec 15 14:11:13 We can say that existing licenced activities are not affcted Dec 15 14:11:57 so keep the current one (albeit with a marking that it is no longer applicable to new applications) and refer to it for the previous applications (that predate the new license) Dec 15 14:12:28 should we incorporate some timing in the license? Like ask applicants to check on a yearly basis if there are updates to it? Dec 15 14:12:30 It saves having to validate that old and new are compatible Dec 15 14:13:56 a second question I have is if we should discuss the license on -nfp or -project before going live? Dec 15 14:14:19 That souns overy onourous - wolud we really expect licencees to change? Users should consult the licence at each use Dec 15 14:15:11 it would help us that we don't need to keep older licenses at hand for eternity Dec 15 14:15:13 Discuss on -nfp and post an announce on -project Dec 15 14:16:02 Are we really going to say "you can't do that any more" ? Dec 15 14:16:08 most licenses are time-bound, but that is not that common in the free software world (more in propriatary one) Dec 15 14:16:28 How oten is the licence likely to change? Dec 15 14:16:34 it's more to handle misinterpretations better Dec 15 14:16:45 agreed Dec 15 14:16:46 at the pace we do it, it'll be somewhere in 2038 when Unix time changes ;) Dec 15 14:17:12 otoh, we do already have an "interpretation" clause in it Dec 15 14:17:23 "The Gentoo Foundation reserves the right to determine if a usage of the Gentoo trademark meets the requirements and standards of this license. " Dec 15 14:17:51 If it came to the "you can't do that any more" we would probably offer an exception anyway, which is just another licence Dec 15 14:18:02 yep Dec 15 14:18:29 so, to deal with the few notes I had: Dec 15 14:18:44 dabbott, Betelgeuse your thoughts ? Dec 15 14:18:51 (1.) Gentoo-related software projects: does this apply to us? Dec 15 14:19:03 You may use the Gentoo name in the form "Gentoo-foo" or "foo-Gentoo" in any software project that can be used to augment or extend the capabilities of official Gentoo project software, provided that: Dec 15 14:19:06 looks fine to me Dec 15 14:19:07 The project is distributed under the terms of an OSI-approved open source license; Dec 15 14:19:10 The website for the project does not imply that it is official or otherwise endorsed by the Gentoo Foundation, or by the Gentoo Council as representatives of the Gentoo project. Dec 15 14:19:24 no objections to keep it in? Dec 15 14:20:07 or by the Gentoo Council as representatives of the Gentoo project. is not good as the council has no legal stats Dec 15 14:20:12 status. Dec 15 14:20:23 yes, i'll drop the references to the council in the document Dec 15 14:20:32 thanks Dec 15 14:20:36 (2.) Other commercial activity: You may not use the Gentoo name in the registered name of any company that offers Gentoo project related services. Dec 15 14:20:39 You may not incorporate the Gentoo name or logo into the name of any product to be sold by a commercial entity when that product or entity is Gentoo project related. Dec 15 14:21:13 ok to keep that in? Dec 15 14:21:33 The Gentoo Foundation is properly called The Gentoo Foundation Inc. Dec 15 14:21:49 wfm Dec 15 14:21:49 ok, will add the "Inc" part to it Dec 15 14:22:00 is it "The Gentoo Foundation Inc." or "The Gentoo Foundation, Inc." ? Dec 15 14:22:13 the former Dec 15 14:22:44 ok Dec 15 14:23:26 yep GENTOO FOUNDATION, INC thats in NM Dec 15 14:23:57 https://portal.sos.state.nm.us/corps/Corplookup/Lookdn.aspx Dec 15 14:23:58 I did not do a proper compare with the old terms of use, but I did not see any clashes Dec 15 14:24:02 ok then, i'll update the document and first send it to trustees@gentoo.org and after a few days, if there are no further remarks, see if the community has any feedback on the gentoo-nfp@g.o mailinglist. Dec 15 14:24:09 SwifT: can we get a link to your draft for the logs Dec 15 14:24:16 sure: http://dev.gentoo.org/~swift/tmp/gentoo-trademark.xml Dec 15 14:24:52 after gentoo-nfp discussion we'll see by mail if we can move it to the site immediately, or if it needs another discussion on IRC, k? Dec 15 14:25:10 dabbott: do hey always shout there? ;) Dec 15 14:25:12 sounds good thanks SwifT Dec 15 14:25:28 yep Dec 15 14:25:33 As quantumsummers|c is still MIA, lets move onto bugs Dec 15 14:25:34 SwifT: sounds like a good plan Dec 15 14:25:59 SwifT: when posting to the ml, let's list clearly the motivation too Dec 15 14:26:17 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=492386 Dec 15 14:26:28 Betelgeuse: k, i'll send it to trustees@g.o to make sure I have it in ;) Dec 15 14:26:36 bug 492386 Dec 15 14:26:37 NeddySeagoon: https://bugs.gentoo.org/492386 "Fund the setup of an opensource chocolate to use at conventions"; Gentoo Foundation, Proposals; CONF; dabbott:trustees Dec 15 14:27:12 I vote No - its not a good use of funds Dec 15 14:27:16 i don't think chocolate is a good PR investment for us Dec 15 14:27:30 dabbott, Betelgeuse Dec 15 14:27:31 I vote no, stickers, dvd's, t-shirts even but no to food Dec 15 14:28:07 I would go for funding a dinner Dec 15 14:28:07 Thats 3 Nos ...

Dec 15 14:35:33 sec, fire alarm Dec 15 14:35:55 SwifT: I hope infra archives trustees like it does for many aliases Dec 15 14:36:03 SwifT, yes. Personal information Dec 15 14:36:19 still bugzilla is beneficial for future trustees Dec 15 14:36:22 Betelgeuse, it does Dec 15 14:36:22 so they can search back Dec 15 14:37:45 * NeddySeagoon posts SwifTs mobile number in a public bug :) Dec 15 14:38:17 I was going to add to the document, send the request to trustees@gentoo and then we can make the bug Dec 15 14:38:38 yes, that works Dec 15 14:38:53 we don't have to require them to do the bug also Dec 15 14:39:03 Bug 477374 Is this closed now?
