Notes for December 1 2016 meeting:

Nick: 1) The team has done well with me totally distracted by finishing the Guard stuff for Sponsor U. I finished it yesterday, and I think it went well. 2) Not too much to add. Coding is a fun and rewarding activity. 3) I think we should put out 0.2.8/0.2.9 releases some time soon-ish? 4) I want a roadmap. I should make one.

Georg: 1) We wrapped up SponsorU items; it seems we get all required things into the next alpha release. 2) I've been distracted by the chemspill releases for the SVG 0-day exploit. 3) I provided feedback for the DRL proposal. 4) I started with planning for the coming weeks (post-SponsorU-time).

Alison: 1) Global South outreach: South America, India, getting funding for the folks who want to do this 2) Support desk: TB manual is up on transifex, Colin is steadily chipping away at tasks for support.torproject.org 3) I will have a blog post ready soon to promote some of our training materials 4) November was an incredibly busy month for me with LFP stuff, but now that it's December I can focus more on Tor, especially working on community docs, building outreach capacity, working on Rapid Response and OONI connection, and building the support portal. 5) Do you want full LFP updates on here too? Looks like the answer is yes! I will start adding LFP updates for the next meeting.

Kate: 1) Counseling Tor people about media interactions 2) SVG 0-day exploit press coordination - Thanks for everyone's responsiveness! 3) Isabela and Erin are tweeting now from @torproject--hope others will be able to soon. 4) Excited that at least some Tor press clips will appear in press room of Tor website soon--we have many many, including lots of non-English ones. 5) Participated in Mozilla's MOSS tweet chat, which Mozilla was pleased by :) 6) Dealing with various other reporter requests 7) Edited multiple blog posts (Mission Improbable, etc.) 8) Wrote and distributed short press release about Mission Improbable Android Tor phone prototype; made some press calls; garnered some media attention (didn't go full-force because it's an early prototype and there was concern about overpromising) Ars Technica, CNNews.ru, Портал Naked Science, CURVED (Germany), FredZone (France), Programmez! (France), Next INpact (France), Svět Androida, Numerama (French), TooLinix (French), etc. (I should list this stuff more often--oh well)

Roger: 1) We need to have a shared vision for handling blog post comments in December 2) I'm going to Seattle on Wednesday 3) I talked to our NSF program manager 4) I'm buried in logistics stuff still 5) I'm mostly back from my surgery

Mike: 1) Finished up the mission improbable post with help from Katie - talked to some reporters; fixed bugs, merged patches (yay!) * The plan seems to have more or less worked in terms of getting developer attention 2) Working on "Technology in the Darkest Timeline" post for guidance for tech companies * Struggling a bit with structure. Have 9-10 General Principles, and an outline of specific suggestions for Google, Apple, and Mozilla * Not sure if this should be one post, two posts, or four * Could use some review of the general principals * Our mail situation makes me sad. Many places think my mail is spam when I use @torproject.org (but not my personal mail). * (SPF and DKIM on my own domains has fixed my problems for them, but not for @torproject.org) * I may have to stop using @torproject.org as my email address.
