Notes for August 3 2017 meeting:
Alison: 1) Worked on further refining support wiki. Wrote a blog post about the support wiki that Steph will publish sometime next week. The post makes it clear that the support wiki is a dynamic document that will get better with more feedback, and I'm hoping to get feedback in the post comments that we can incorporate into the wiki during our support wiki sprint on August 11. 2) Onboarded Steph about Tor/FOSS culture and history. When I get some time I'm going to clean up my notes and turn that document into an actual onboarding doc. Feedback would be great! 3) Worked on the code of conduct draft some. Now wondering what's up with the membership guidelines? 4) Spoke about onion services for archives at the Society of American Archivists Conference last week. 5) Began organizing the Tor Speakers Bureau. Almost 30 people have signed up! 6) Worked on some grant stuff with the comms team. 7) Worked on some Tor Meeting planning stuff. Next week's Vegas meeting will be all about planning the Tor Meeting schedule.
Georg: 1) Who should go to the OTF Summit? (Discussed for a while. Isabela will reach out to teams and individuals, aiming to reply to OTF RSN)
Mike: 0) Working to get Prop247 (hidden service guard selection) performance experiments running. Will need to coordinate with Karsten for running a few onionperf instances. 1) Goal is to get both Prop247 and Prop254 implementations working well enough for experiments to run while I am on vacation. Going to be ignoring most other non-critical things.
Nick: 0) Nothing seems to be on fire with us. 1) Didn't get hs-ng merged for defcon, but it *is* working. Code still under review. Hoping we'll merge by the 0.3.2 deadline (15 Sep.) 2) Had to push back 0.3.1 stable, since it wasn't ready for the start of august. Hoping for start of september. Not currently planning corresponding delays in 0.3.2 stable deadlines. 3) I'm trying to push the privcount work forward. 0.3.2 merge for some in-tor trial component seems doable, pending prompt replies from nrl folks. 4) Got useful feedback from mcs et al on usability features in progress reporting for Tor Launcher.
Karsten: 1) Double-checked Tor Browser initial download numbers without finding anything unusual. iwakeh might continue this analysis next week.
Isabela: 0) worked with Tommy and Metrics folks on OTF response 1) Worked with Erin, Tommy and Steph on 'onboarding wiki' - https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/org/onboarding (we organized the information people brainstormed into sections and started populating those but there are still lots of work to do on this page) 2) Got deliverables reports out - getting july reports ready to be send before i go on vacation 3) great progress with tor launcher ui changes - now working on dependencies and copy / also lots of progress overall with ux work, did an update no all our projects at this week meeting (you can see on meetings notes to ux list) 4) did some prep work for sponsor8 5) worked on a proposal for a collaborative way to build tor meeting schedule
Steph: 1) Still working with Giant Rabbit on getting the newsletter setup. Slowly making process. Also working with them to move press contacts/orgs into Civi. Starting to move contacts in there now 2) Maintaining blog calendar and working with authors + Tommy on posts - lined up: MOSS award, Canada events, Orfox, Support Wiki, Onion Survey, Browser download metrics 3) Getting in more of a flow with press inquiries. We answered a couple questions for TheQuestion.ru, they'll be on the English site as well. Connected Arthur with a presentation. Will coordinate promotion of Colin's podcast 4) Have made a little headway with templates. Need to make odf versions. We'll have as a resource in media.tp
