Notes for September 15 2016 meeting:
Roger: 1) Back online but single-mindedly focusing on NSF (SponsorM) site visit, send me a fresh mail if you need anything.
Nick: 1) Tons of deliverables between now and end-of-oct. Going to be busy. Adding extra work is deprecated. 2) Timeline for hiring? A: Grant manager asap, then techies once next big grant approved. 3) To do (or discuss at meeting): we need somebody directing our infosec. How? Budget? 4) Topic for meeting: project-wide software security policy. 5) Topic for meeting: we need to brainstorm stuff in advance for future proposals. 6) annual/biannual reviews?
Kate: 1) Trying to get a reporter to film herself starting a Tor middle relay 2) More blog posts on the way--For instance, will publish the one that Nathan and I and others wrote about being safe while using mobile 3) Blogged about Rule41 (which will allow FBI hacking unless Congress acts) and am using social media to raise awareness of issue and get ppl to call their Senators (will roll out plan for non-US people soon but for now: retweet! retweet!) 4) Last night I linked a subplot on Mr. Robot (Elliot hacks the FBI) to the fact that the FBI is about to hack us—got lots of people to call their US Senators, lots of attention to the Stop Mass Hacking Act, 300,000 Twitter impressions, 450 retweets, and 65 new Twitter followers. --Will follow up with what you can do if you are not from the USA 5) Will be in SF for the week after the dev meting and am lining up meetings with policy folks and reporters. Let me know if there’s someone you think I should meet—am also going to stop by NOiseBridge. 6) We have PhotoShop and Illustrator—all hail Shari and Jon and Erin - Thank you!
Alison: 1) Tor meeting agenda planning continues -- lots of ideas from meeting attendees. Will share summary with the group after gunner, Shari, and I meet on Monday. 2) Nima finally has all info for the public hack days and is making a flyer for outreach. We're only sending it out digitally -- Twitter and email -- because we don't have a ton of capacity for this, especially on Saturday and Sunday. 3) We need some people to act as point persons on the Saturday and Sunday hackdays. I'm trying to figure out who these people could be. I can do it Friday, but then I leave Seattle. 4) Community team is working on the "metrics for relay ops" project and on improving communication with relay ops generally. 5) Colin is nearly finished the support manual and will have a blog post ready for review soon. Other support stuff being worked on: glossary, FAQ, and platform for support.torproject.org. We'll have some things to share at the meeting. 6) I didn't get enough people to commit to doing the Tor event at Aaron Swartz Day (in SF in November) so I emailed Lisa Rein to say we should probably give that time to someone else. -- wait, maybe we can actually be there. I will circle back with Lisa about this.
Isabela: 1) Prep for dev meeting - organizing team meetings; organize Linda's onboard -> will email the ux list today announcing her, got a quote from her too. Should i fwd to tor internal as well? 2) Guidelines are out -- working on collecting feedback from the community and preparing for dev meeting session 3) working on wireframes for metrics and something for orfox project too (ISC above) so when FE dev comes in we can speed up process 4) Interviewed ppl for the services admin position from ford foundation grant 5) replying to giant rabbit requests - review design, get server set up etc
Georg: 1) Was in Berlin for the meetup. I think it was a success on many levels 2) Dealt with release preparations and trying to get as much stuff into the upcoming alpha as possible 3) We should think about possible talks for 33c3
Karsten: 1) Helped organize and attended the Berlin meetup. Discussed many things, including ExoneraTor with Sebastian, webstats with GeKo and boklm, and metrics plans with iwakeh and others. 2) Helped with job interviews for a service admin position. 3) Set up a new visualization (https://tor-metrics.shinyapps.io/webstats/) using Shiny, which is "an open source [...] web framework for building web applications using R". This is one possible future of the Tor Metrics website, but we're not there yet.
Mike: 1) Updated my android work to the new release of copperhead based on Android Nougat. Seems mostly working still. Some minor annoying snags remain, though.
Shari: 1) Getting ready for Tor meeting. 2) Getting ready for two board meetings at the Tor meeting. 3) Working with Giant Rabbit on getting our donation database ready for end-of-year fundraising.
