How's everyone liking the bi-monthly PMC?

  - bi-weekly async email chain?

  - GitHub radar/issue?

 

Standup is ok.

GitHub radar: repository for FDX PMC – get an activity overview. can use Jira API to extract information.

Very interesting. We've been doing a lot of work on metrics.github.org; getting this information on markdown would be very useful. but there are no current issues this addresses. allows you to have conversations, discussions, updates,...

More interesting GitHub fork: start using GitHub issues as a framework where we have discussions. more accessible for Brian bc right now there's issues with accessing and moderating google groups. the more we get Brian engaged, the more help we'll get. we can also test this and then eventually expand it to other PMCs. 

GitHub issues seems easier than email/Google Groups/wiki. Allows to report out of existing task management. 

Sounds good but there's already many channels we're using. Would try not to create too much infrastructure. Let's try & if it doesn't work we'll change

Whatever you create, please link it back to the PMC wiki so that we have a trail for people who come in through another system. should be a private repo where only PMCs have access to edit but the public has access to reading.

Can it be set up so that only team members can create issues?

@Jamie Jones

FDX migration to github. Discussion about moving individual programs to the FINOS repo on GitHub. Would like to do this for FDX to start out. Create group/ permissions/ .... to figure out rough edges

Rationale: FDX does not have a lot of activity so it looks like a safe place to try.

Participation statistics. Significant drop in activity within financial institutions. 2017 vs. 2018 stats; figuring out which year was an outlier. Cleaning up data and making sure that all of the relevant data is included.

FINOS state of Open Source report. Factsheets. Tables. Stats.
