Day of meeting

1. Send out a reminder Matrix message a bit before the meeting to the #devel:fedoraproject.org Matrix room.

2. Generate a text file from the following template: 

!startmeeting FESCO (2024-12-31)
!meetingname fesco
Chairs: @conan_kudo:matrix.org, @ngompa:fedora.im, @nirik:matrix.scrye.com, @humaton:fedora.im, @zbyszek:fedora.im, @sgallagh:fedora.im, @jistone:fedora.im, @dcantrell:fedora.im, @decathorpe:fedora.im, @salimma:fedora.im

!topic #NNNN TICKET TITLE
!fesco NNNN
!agreed DECISION (+X, Y, -Z)
...
!topic Next week's chair
!action NAME will chair next meeting
!topic Open Floor
!endmeeting

You can copy and paste in lines from this file as the meeting progresses.

Meeting time

1. Use the lines up to 'init process' to start the meeting.

2. Wait a few for people to show up. Confirm there are at least (5) voting members present for Quorum. If not, cancel meeting.

3. Go through each topic. Watch time on each and if 15 minutes are reached, one of the following actions may be taken:

  • If there is a vote to continue, then discussion continues for an additional 15 minutes.
  • If there is no vote to continue the discussion after the initial 15 minutes, ask those members who are discussing the issue to clearly write up their thoughts and position on a wiki page for consideration at the next meeting. Each view point can list their thoughts as a separate proposal, or work off-line with others, to come up with a single proposal acceptable to them all. The wiki page is used in the next meeting to guide discussions and voting.

Post meeting

1. When !endmeeting runs it displays links for the logs. Use the .txt and then .log.txt files to send an e-mail as a reply to the meeting schedule e-mail. The subject should be: 

Summary/Minutes from today's FESCo Meeting (2024-12-31)

Send the e-mail right after the meeting to not forget it.

2. Process through tickets comment/close them as appropriate.
