Dear all, You are kindly invited to the meeting: Council (Open Floor) EARLY MEETING on 2018-05-23 from 12:00:00 to 13:00:00 US/Eastern At fedora-meeting(a)irc.freenode.net The meeting will be about: The Fedora Council will hold our regular Open Floor meeting at 12:00pm US/Eastern in #fedora-meeting on irc.freenode.net. All are welcome! To convert to your local time, run: date -d 'TZ="US/Eastern" 12pm tomorrow' Open Floor meetings happen every four weeks. They do not have a preset agenda. Instead, we spend the first few minutes of the meeting deciding what topics will be discussed. If attendees — Council members and otherwise — have several topics of general interest, the primary meeting chair (usually the FPL or FCAIC) will put them in order, and after a certain amount of time discussing the first, ask if it's time to move on. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Council_Meetings#Open_Floor_Meetings Source: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/calendar/meeting/5229/

Request for Comments: Better installed-systems data would really help
by Matthew Miller 08 May '18

08 May '18

I'd like to talk about adding an randomized, rotating UUID to DNF and rpm-ostree updates which we could use to better count installed systems. The IP-based counting we currently use is deeply flawed, and we'd really benefit from getting more accurate numbers. This would * let us make better strategic decisions based on our actual base of installed systems, and * help us demostrate growth and impact to various sponsors. To be completely candid: this would be incredibly useful as I advocate for Fedora within Red Hat, but no one @redhat has directed me to ask for it. And its *not* just Red Hat — this would be useful in talking to our various hardware partners too and other potential sponsors. Long ago, we had Smolt, but this was opt-in and didn't present a very complete picture. I'd like to propose we do something similar to what openSUSE describes here: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Statistics. That is: A completely random UUID used only for this purpose, and used for counting rather than tracking. We could refresh the UUID periodically (like monthly) to ensure that long-term tracking wouldn't even be an option (while still distinguishing between short-lived cloud or test instances). And of course there would be some way to opt out. Recently Canonical has implemented a much greater amount of data collection https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2018-February/040139.html, and while maybe we might want to look at reviving an opt-in system, I don't think we need that right now. (Historically, we've had a lot of resistance to similar proposals as opt-out, and the value of opt-in is low.) Basically, all I want is that UUID plus CPU arch plus ID, VERSION_ID, and VARIANT_ID from /etc/os-release. (And, I'd also like to start using VARIANT_ID for labs, spins, docker images, etc.) What do you think? Does the suggested plan make sense? -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader

Request to populate Questionaire for community elections to FESCo, Mindshare, Council
by Jan Kurik 03 May '18

03 May '18

Hi, as part of the preparation for community elections in May 2018, I would like to ask people to populate Election Questionnaire [1] with questions people might have for nominees. The Questionnaire already contains questions from the last elections, however you might add your own, if you have any. In May 2018 we are going to elect members for these teams: * FESCo (4 seats) * Fedora Council (1 seat) * Mindshare (1 seat) You have a time till 2018-May-07 23:59:59 UTC [2] to populate the Questionnaire with your questions. Then collected questions will go to the teams when 3 top questions will be selected and will be given to each candidate to answer before voting period begins as part of campaign. [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Elections/Questionnaire [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Elections#Elections_Schedule Thanks in advance for you contribution, Jan -- Jan Kuřík JBoss EAP Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkyňova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic
