TLDR
----
We're on schedule for the IRC classroom sessions. Please keep a look
out for any more interesting talks that we can do. If you'd like to
take a session, get in touch! If you can bribe a friend to take a
session, get in touch!
More info here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Classroomhttps://pagure.io/fedora-join/Fedora-Join/issue/23
On the *new* class room initiative that will move away from IRC to platforms more apt for teaching, we're reviewing video platforms:
* FranciscoD review "open meeting"
* linuxmodder- to review "Big blue button BBB"
* skamath write a report about "Jitsi"
* x3mboy review "ekiga"
And of course, we'll get in touch with a redhatter to get some feedback
on "BlueJeans". If you'd like to help, please get in touch with the
responsible party via email/irc. If you know other platforms useful for
teaching, please get in touch with us too - while we're looking at
video platforms at the moment, any and all software that can be used
for teaching is most welcome (eg: moodle!). More info here:
https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Fedora-Join/issue/22
We'll all blog our reviews so that they turn up on the planet, with a
heading: "$platform review for use in Fedora classroom sessions".

Hello,
Somehow, I haven't received a reminder from fedocal for today's
meeting. I wonder if anyone else got it?
Anyway, the meeting is in a few hours[1] - 1600 Europe/London according
to my calendar. (Fedocal says conflicting things.)
The agenda is the usual - open tickets.
---
In short, we've made headway on the classrooms. We now have 6 of them
lined up, but we don't want to start them off too soon with the new
release coming up in a few weeks. It makes more sense to let all the
spotlight fall on the release, and then we can use some of that to
launch the classrooms.

We had @kylerconway do the web space audit for us. We need to look at
the results and see what needs to be improved and so on.
--
Redoing the mentoring programme - we've let the ball drop on this one a
bit. We've already got quite a few ideas on this, but we need more
feedback.

My current priority, given the lack of cycles, is the classroom bit.
The others are tasks that have a much longer term scope. I'd be quite
glad if more folks worked on them bit by bit. :)
I'll see you folks at the meeting!
