Kashyap Conversation

0[10:27] <marcin> Kashyap, who are you? [10:27] <kashyap> marcin, Sorry, I didn't introduce myself. [10:28] <kashyap> I'm Kashyap, I work for Red Hat as an open source software engineer working on Virtualization and Cloud related software and plenty other Linux related things [10:28] <kashyap> I'm mainly lurking around here. [10:28] == jonathan___ [601afcb8@gateway/web/freenode/ip.96.26.252.184] has joined #opensourceecology [10:28] == jonathan___ has changed nick to Guest88338 [10:29] <kashyap> marcin, I think only little thing I did is to help bring a tiny IRC meeting bot (you can see "zodbot" in the channel, thanks to Fedora Project who did it) in the channel so, people can conduct IRC meetings here, and the summary will be automatically collected and posted to a URL on the internet [10:31] <kashyap> How to use it for text chat based meetings, instructions are here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Zodbot#Meeting_Functions [10:33] <kashyap> If anyone needs help to use it, I'd be glad to be walk through. [10:34] <kashyap> (s/to be/to) [10:39] == Guest88338 [601afcb8@gateway/web/freenode/ip.96.26.252.184] has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds] [10:47] == andreas_ [53fe9c78@gateway/web/freenode/ip.83.254.156.120] has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds] [10:49] <marcin> Kashyap - where do I find the summary? How do I activate zodbot? [10:49] <kashyap> marcin, We can do a quick trial run here if you prefer? [10:50] <marcin> yes [10:50] <kashyap> Currently they're hosted on Fedora Project's website, (the bot pushes it there) [10:50] <marcin> Please start it. [10:50] <kashyap> Okay. [10:50] <marcin> How do you start? [10:50] <kashyap> #startmeeting TestMeetingForMarcin [10:50] <zodbot> Meeting started Mon Sep 15 15:50:57 2014 UTC. The chair is kashyap. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. [10:50] <zodbot> Useful Commands: #action #agreed #halp #info #idea #link #topic. [10:50] <kashyap> #meetingname TestMeetingForMarcin [10:50] <zodbot> The meeting name has been set to 'testmeetingformarcin' [10:51] <kashyap> #topic Test topic [10:51] <kashyap> marcin, So, here folks can discuss topics, as it's evident from the name. [10:51] <kashyap> If there happened to be any actions, one can note them explicitly like this: [10:52] <kashyap> #action Kashyap said he'd demonstrate Zodbot [10:52] <kashyap> #info Demonstration in progress [10:52] <kashyap> So on and so forth. [10:52] <kashyap> If people want to change to a different topic, rinse, repeat [10:52] <kashyap> #topic Topic2 [10:52] <kashyap> Discussion about Topic2. [10:53] <kashyap> The meeting admin (me in this case) can also add #chair so that who ever is added to that can also run some of these commands [10:53] <kashyap> #chair marcin [10:53] <zodbot> Current chairs: kashyap marcin [10:54] <kashyap> marcin, Does this make sense? It just needs a bit of getting used for a couple of runs, then it'll become smooth [10:54] <kashyap> #info Running #commands will provide a full list of commands available [10:54] <kashyap> #commands [10:54] <zodbot> Available commands: #accept #accepted #action #agree #agreed #chair #commands #endmeeting #halp #help #idea #info #link #lurk #meetingname #meetingtopic #nick #rejected #restrictlogs #save #startmeeting #topic #unchair #undo #unlurk [10:56] <kashyap> marcin, Summary of a previous meeting that was conducted here: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/opensourceecology/2014-07-30/repomanagement.2014-07-30-18.22.html [10:57] <kashyap> You can click on 'full logs' at the top, to see the small conversation about Task Delegation started by gwelkind. [11:01] <kashyap> marcin, Do you have questions? If not, we (you) can end this meeting (with a command "#endmeeting" - without quotes) so that the logs can be uploaded somewhere. [11:05] == sjkelly [~sjkelly@greentown03.g.subnet.rcn.com] has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds] [11:14] <marcin> Wow, that's a little confusing if others new to IRC are getting on. [11:15] <kashyap> marcin, Well, yes it's true. [11:15] == sjkelly [~sjkelly@greentown03.g.subnet.rcn.com] has joined #opensourceecology [11:15] <kashyap> marcin, Not all commands are necessary to run. [11:16] <kashyap> In fact, new people can just do #startmeeting, discuss a lot (knowing this discussion will be on the internet), and hit #endmeeting [11:16] <kashyap> So, at-least there's some record of it. [11:17] <kashyap> marcin, And, slowly people can start using commands like above so that you can end up with more structured meeting notes. [11:18] <kashyap> This will be a bit more clear if we end this test meeting & see the final result in a browser, it's much more readable. [11:22] * kashyap has to step out for a little bit, so will end the meeting here, if you have more questions, please type in this channel, I'll read in a while. [11:22] <kashyap> Going to end the meeting in 3 seconds. [11:22] <kashyap> 3. . . [11:22] <kashyap> 2. . . [11:22] <kashyap> 1. . .
