So hold off on reviewing the draft (whoever is going to do it) for a couple of days. I want to make some changes to it. 17:03:12 okay sure 17:03:16 do we have a plan for who will review it? 17:03:21 probably good to know who intends to 17:03:28 or who you need to review it 17:04:29 (i also would be interested in reading it. is it possible to read it? :) 17:05:33 kat5 ^^ 17:05:47 flexlibris: I don't know who wrote it so I don't know who should reveew it. 17:06:00 originally a lot of the input came from maggie, arthur, and me 17:06:05 and i think pili also wrote some 17:06:09 Samdney: it can't be public until we give it to the sponsor and they say okay. 17:06:19 ok :/ 17:06:36 okay cool, so once you make some changes i'll be ready to review it with those others 17:06:42 as for other stuff from the october roadmap 17:06:50 let's just quickly go over items that aren't crossed off yet 17:06:54 and then we will look at November 17:07:13 I moved Gus's sponsor9 remaining stuff to November already 17:07:26 Phoul: have you started running the relay operator IRC meetups again? 17:07:57 That is on my plan for this week, going to send the email to start running those again. 17:08:04 okay cool 17:08:08 so let's move that to november too 17:08:50 emmapeel what about this localization stuff? any updates? 17:08:58 flexlibris: i was thinking when are we going to move the tb-manual to lektor 17:09:09 about localization... welll 17:09:38 emmapeel hang on let me find the emails where we talked about that timeline 17:09:38 not sure what to put on the roadmap 17:09:46 ok 17:10:24 i fr one side want to have a weblate instance running but then there is the linguine prject, and maybe sharing with other projects is better 17:10:45 but it is not happening yet 17:10:49 so i am not sure about the roadmap 17:10:51 the last updates i have about moving the manual to lektor was sept 20 and it was from hiro 17:11:00 oh yeah about the lektor stuff 17:11:09 she made a skeleton here https://gitweb.torproject.org/project/web/manual.git/ 17:11:09 well there is a lready a first version of the manual in lektor 17:11:27 but now to replace the current one with it, i dont know. i gues some sysadmin work needs to be done 17:11:39 okay so let me follow up on this thread and ask 17:11:47 yess, the content is already tehre and it can be run in local without problems 17:12:01 wayward can do it too, we arranged that in mexico 17:12:12 yes I remember that 17:12:16 let me make sure she's on this thread 17:12:51 i dont know who can put it up now instead of tb-manual.torproject.org 17:13:05 i am following up on this thread and we will find out 17:13:09 i will also note this on the november roadmap 17:13:42 how about the other localization stuff on the october roadmap? 17:13:51 and then also you started saying something else too 17:14:31 the other stuff is ok, still i havent finished all the screenshots (weeps) 17:14:58 don't cry 17:15:07 <3 17:15:20 okay anything else we should talk about from October? otherwise we move on to November 17:16:41 cool November it is then 17:16:55 flexlibris: general question regarding the roadmap... I noticed that the Oct 2018 - July 2019 roadmap pad doesn't seem to have community events like the prior pad; should I add the Aaron Swartz Day one (Nov 11) there? 17:17:12 sure you can add it 17:17:37 is that under Outreach/sponsor9, or a new section? 17:17:53 I wonder if we should add those things in the shared Tor calendar also... 17:17:56 if they're not already there 17:18:03 okay so regarding community/support portal stuff, one thing we really need is to find someone to work on the TBA support docs 17:18:14 I was hoping Cy would be here because she wanted to find something new to work on 17:18:17 dmr sure outreach 17:18:31 pili what calendar are you thinking of? events calendar on the website? 17:18:38 the one on storm: https://storm.torproject.org/grain/H6dQejgGAizq6MYMawwPzq 17:18:43 we don't generally put community events there. eventually the community portal will have community events 17:18:45 sorry, I should have been more specific :) 17:19:00 ah yeah, hmm 17:20:33 the main thing is that that calendar is really not publicized outside of people who attend team meetings 17:21:11 I don't even have access. (Probably don't need it.) 17:21:21 i think it's something we should hold off on because we will be setting this up on the community portal 17:21:26 there will be a way for people to submit community events 17:21:51 okay so moving along 17:21:55 LFI stuff is all ongoing, I will update 17:22:33 i just closed the survey for the next tor meeting and so i am working with jon now on finalizing the date and location 17:22:47 all of the dates/locations besides tbilisi were about equally popular 17:23:49 okay on to outreach stuff... 17:24:05 i am going to follow back up with the sponsor9 group in another week or so after jon confirms the tor meeting dates to me 17:24:08 oh i liked tbilisi 17:24:09 so we can finalize our travel plans 17:24:18 emmapeel me too, but there were concerns that it was not LGBT friendly 17:24:31 oh i see 17:26:10 most of the other outreach stuff is Gus and so he can give us an update next week 17:26:17 sponsor19 kat already updated 17:26:30 volunteer tasks are all wayward so we'll hear about those next week 17:26:38 Phoul anything you want to share about the relay tasks here? 17:27:14 Sure! 17:28:49 The LongCon / BSides Winnipeg happened over the weekend. I did not end up doing large amounts of advertising for it, as the conference was sold out and they overbooked their space due to having vendors this year. However, I did hold multiple mini meetups during the con and spoke with lots of people who were super excited to become relay operators. I think we will be seeing a few more pop up in Canada 17:28:55 shortly. I also met with a couple current relay operators, who were really excited to get swag and talk with others. I'm planning to hold a better advertised meetup with a lot of these people at the local college in the next month or so. 17:30:00 For the obfs4proxy instructions, I also worked with a few people running Free/OpenBSD to work out a easy guide for them to follow. I'm going to send that to gman999 today to look over to see if there is anything missing. 17:30:43 * flexlibris reads 17:31:05 cool thanks for all that 17:31:14 hows it going with that big company that wants to run relays? 17:31:55 Great! They sent me their first relay over the weekend to look over, gooing to do that after the meeting and get back to them. They are just looking to make sure the first one was done right before deploying others, so should see more this week. 17:32:51 awesome 17:33:06 and the burst of OVH relays last week was definitely not them. 17:33:29 who was it? 17:33:39 Not sure, but this company said they only launched the 1. 17:33:47 weird 17:33:54 did you follow up about the OVH ones? 17:34:59 I looked into the relays, however they dont define any contactinfo and never responded on list. I dont think we have another way to connect with this operator. 17:35:10 hmm. that sounds sketchy. 17:35:20 really sketchy 17:35:21 how do we handle that when a bunch of relays come onlne with no contact info? 17:35:31 cause those sound like bad relays to me 17:35:56 I'll check the badrelays list and see if someone sent them there already. There are a *lot* of relays without contactinfo, so that alone probably wouldnt get them rejected. 17:36:36 but the fact that they brought a bunch online. how many? 17:36:37 it's perhaps more the sudden spike that adds suspicion 17:36:46 right 17:37:47 There were 17 (was finding the email), I believe this also got sent to bad-relays but will dig for that. 17:37:49 in the past we submitted a ticket to ovh to ask them to ask their customer to contact us 17:37:59 also i think dgoulet knows some ovh people 17:38:10 cool. colin can you follow up with ovh? 17:38:29 Definitely. 17:38:36 Will send them an email today 17:38:37 awesome thanks 17:38:44 anyone else have something to update for the november roadmap? 17:38:45 phoul: dgoulet knows details of how we contacted them last time 17:38:57 things you need help with or stuff you want to share? 17:39:10 arma1: Thank you, I will contact him :) 17:39:54 I added the sponsor 9 phase 1 report to the roadmap for november :) 17:40:05 pili i saw, and i added gus to help with that :) 17:40:10 great, thanks! 17:40:11 so let's follow up about when you want to work on it 17:40:31 asap, but I need to do my homework about it first... :/ 17:40:35 sure 17:40:59 okay anything else people? 17:41:08 * dmr raises hand 17:41:23 go ahead dmr 17:41:30 haven't made a Community Team meeting in a while =\ (sorry!).

(I think the answer there is *yes*, so only correct me if I'm wrong) 17:45:04 yes 17:45:35 ok, I'll try to pop in/out later today to hear from stephw about the relay flyers 17:45:47 okay anything else? 17:45:50 Phoul: if you know of the location for those, also feel free to message me 17:46:01 flexlibris: general LFP question 17:46:05 ok 17:46:12 I saw Toronto Public Library is doing a Tor Browser pilot: https://www.torontopubliclibrary.ca/using-the-library/computer-services/tor-browser-pilot/ 17:46:16 yep 17:46:22 'tis awesome! 17:46:25 what involvement did the LFP have in getting this initiated? any main lessons learned in relations with the library? (I'd be fine to talk post-meeting if that's handier) 17:46:25 dmr: I'm not actually sure, I have a stack of them here but I just realized I'm not sure where they are online. If I dont see stephw respond, I will follow-up and get back to you. 17:46:29 yes and those faqs are good ones 17:46:40 dmr LFP and other Tor people worked on it a lot 17:46:52 but it's a longer discussion 17:46:57 naturally :) 17:47:27 we can follow up later 17:47:32 anyone else have anything for this meeting? 17:47:35 flexlibris: sounds good! 17:47:41 Phoul: thanks :) 17:47:44 nope 17:47:51 * Samdney has to go ... 17:48:00 not me 17:48:03 * antonela ! 17:48:07 okay cool, i will kill the bot then 17:48:10 thanks everyone 17:48:15 #endmeeting
