Thanks, up to speed now 14:16:53 oh, actually, you can go to slack and see the hot irc channel, it does get saved there 14:17:09 in the hot slack team 14:18:37 yep, Mhairi, that's what I was trying to type last night, maybe I was too tired to make sense, but I often use the hot slack irc channel to read back, but you can also participate in irc chat via a bot from slack 14:19:38 anywho, I think we are good with agenda item 1 - previous meeting notes 14:20:00 very handy. but instead of going through the bot ..... could we not shift completely to slack? 14:20:00 #topic Discuss Current Activations 14:20:11 is there anything preventing us from doing so? 14:21:19 Actually, can we add a new item of business for AWG meetings in general, I'd like to propose a time change as well? 14:21:37 sure. i am happy to do that. 14:22:17 ok, let me add a card and we can return to this, think these next items should be fairly quick 14:22:40 i’ll add one about the use of slack 14:22:55 oh! you did it :) 14:23:20 and you're testing the slack crossover :) 14:23:40 by accident .... but yes 14:23:43 So I don't think we really have any Activations going 14:24:21 Any news regarding Haiti projects? That's the only response I know of that might have needs 14:24:28 no. there was a task set up to map the area affected by the earthquake in Aceh today 14:25:30 a 6.5 magnitude hit Pidie. think the death toll is sadly around 100 and rising 14:25:54 so the team here set up a project on the Indonesian TM instance 14:27:01 http://tasks.openstreetmap.id/project/178#instructions 14:27:20 do they want remote crowd mappers? 14:31:22 more mappers is always welcomed! 14:33:14 May I ask a question? 14:33:24 Yes, Please Ralph 14:34:02 Just how many Tasking Managers are there out there that the ordinary HOT mapper knows nothing about? 14:34:23 RAytoun, potentially a lot 14:34:53 And that is a good way to do it really 14:34:54 RAytoun, there's a list at the bottom of this page 14:34:55 http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Tasking_Manager 14:35:12 but it's not complete unfortunately 14:35:36 Ideally, the HOT OSM Tasking Manager install should be the place where globally people come to help map 14:35:47 Ok, to move along; this is basically a local lead response, HOT can support with messaging 14:35:54 Regional tasking managers are very good for regionally based mapping 14:36:44 I think that is it russdeffner 14:36:58 Ralph, does that help at all? 14:37:36 We focus on HOT TM, but there are a number of regional and specific TM's but generally things are on there because they do not need an international support mapping 14:38:48 We do not run any TM installs other than HOT, all the other ones are installed and maintained by other groups 14:39:38 Which ones are we missing pgiraud? let's add to the list https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Tasking_Manager#Operational_installations_of_the_Tasking_Manager 14:39:41 Technically, we probably run the Indonesian TM too, but that is all done locally, we do not usually put projects on it. 14:39:44 Please continue the chat, I'm just going to try and move through the AWG agenda... 14:40:03 Anything else regarding current Activations/Disaster Mapping events? 14:40:19 I think matthew gets moved to the closed list 14:41:09 done 14:41:55 #topic Opening all regions for export 14:42:12 Mhairi, and update on this? 14:42:23 *any 14:42:49 this is currently part of the ToR for overall Export Tool development 14:43:19 we're hoping to address it and other issues early next year 14:43:45 when does development start mataharimhairi ? 14:44:03 a finalised plan is still pending 14:44:18 but it looks like january and aiming to be done by spring 14:44:49 or sooner 14:45:35 great, should we keep the trello card as is? ie. do you want to return to this next month or can we archive? 14:45:51 mataharimhairi, we are planning on moving that software to a new server in the next 2 weeks 14:45:59 the existing live export tool 14:46:45 the tech working group is I should say 14:47:16 okay great. thanks for the heads up blake. 14:47:38 i think we should archive the card from the activation wg agenda since we are addressing it in development 14:48:23 harry-wood, I can't remember but I think I found other instances in the past by doing some google search 14:48:43 ok, I moved the card from our agenda list to the export tool list 14:49:08 maybe once the project is complete, then we can archive/archive that whole list 14:49:30 anything else regarding the export tool? 14:50:07 #topic HDM Data Model 14:50:49 Is the HDM also tied to Export development? 14:52:26 It is related, but I do not think they are "tied" 14:52:27 not really. since we are planning on removing it and just working with the OSM tree tag 14:52:29 hopefully not 14:52:47 ya, it needs to get fixed up so it is more relevent 14:53:56 so no, they are not tied in any way. the HDM list was just used as reference of features that might be required for export in a humanitarian response 14:56:37 ok, so basically the HDM is now only related to the Humanitarian tiles 14:56:50 ya 14:58:20 Anything needing done for HDM? 14:58:37 at this point, or what's the workflow/etc.? 14:58:51 another working group should take that over 15:00:13 I have to run, thank you all for your time 15:00:20 any ideas which WG would be best suited? 15:00:26 thank you blake! 15:00:30 we will have to figure it out mataharimhairi 15:00:50 Unless someone has urgent business, new or old, I move we adjuourn 15:01:19 There's just two cards left, I think we can do this quickly 15:01:39 Unless there is objection, let's just return to the HDM next time 15:02:10 #topic Activation Curriculum 15:02:34 The only thing I think we have going here is migrating the content to GitBooks 15:02:55 Blake, Mikel and myself have started, just need to find the time/motivation to continue 15:03:08 Anything else regarding curriculum? 15:03:59 #topic AWG Meeting Platform and Schedule 15:04:45 Mhairi suggested moving to Slack, I guess we would just create a new channel for the AWG? 15:05:32 Any objections to that? 15:06:21 Ok 15:06:48 no objections. 15:06:59 but that might also be because we are the only two here .... 15:07:05 I would like to move the time back one hour to 1500 UTC, does that not work for anyone? 15:07:22 it makes it very late for me 15:07:57 our time difference makes it difficult 15:08:09 i am flexible though depending on who chairs 15:08:09 yes, we'll always have that problem 15:08:27 if you would like to chair/lead then please make the time more suitable for yourself 15:08:49 otherwise i would appreciate it being a little earlier as I start to 'fail' the later is gets 15:08:50 I guess we've been doing very late for you, I can put up with very early for me for a while 15:08:55 *not a night worker 15:09:26 ok, let's keep as is then 15:09:26 thanks russell. we can switch it back again later. 15:09:41 timechange will keep it even 15:09:41 perhaps switching it back and forth is the best option 15:09:42 Unless someone has urgent business, new or old, I move we adjuourn 15:10:03 :) 15:10:07 nothing else urgent blake 15:10:16 thank you everyone! 15:10:27 Yes, thanks! 15:10:43 #endmeeting
