JOTI evaluation.
A part of the evaluation has been done by email.
Considering what happened just prior to JOTI it went brilliant.
Bot services should end at 24 hours local time. Due to some misunderstanding Anamartha did have some problems with that. Bots were gone before JOTI ended there. This is something for next year to remember.
Maybe when Bot Team gets requests for bots they should ask when they should be there.
U.S.A. need more ( irc ) ops for next year. But that will be difficult like always.
A to do list for next JOTI is a very good idea!
Roger-UK volunteers to de JOTI co for next year with a helping team. The current JOTI co did not say he wants to stop, but there has not been much communication from him despite email. He also has not been online much during JOTI. Of course he is welcome to help next JOTI.
Roger-UK would like to get a team together with representatives from all other teams, like Bot team, Tech team etc. and organise it that way.
The one major event Scoutlink has needs to be sorted.
There are still channels on Scoutlink which are not supposed to be there. Can there be a clean up please?
Council has voted for Roger-UK to be JOTI co next year. Carried with one abstention.
Elections CC/RC ( Dougly 01-11-2006 and Tinge 01-01-2006 )
It is election time for Dougly ( CC Canada ) and Tinge ( RC Scandinavia ). We need 2 volunteers to arrange the elections for Canada and Scandinavia. AK-Eagle will do Canada and Juham will do Scandinavia. Part of the job also is to find out how many regulars a country/region has.
#Polish Bot ( HarcBot; they want to use that permanently ).
The Polish channel has several events connected with the Polish Scout Association ZHP every year. They invite some important instructors from their HQ and they are creating a good care taken chat environment, that requires HarcBot every time. Statistics they would like to have as well. Also HarcBot provides some internal features for Polish users and Polish ops. It is helpful for all. It will be running under the supervision of Wojo.
Statistics will be anonymous. All data will be kept confidential.
Council has voted for the use of the Bot. carried with one abstention.
Update list of all operators by CC/RC and operators changes.
An update list is required and maybe it is a good idea to put ops changes at agenda every month, because nobody emails that to the team list.
It has been proposed to make a list on the Scoutlink website which we can edit and see. That list can de used to ( cross ) check all other lists. CC/RC should be on there as well.
Council voted for that and it has been carried.
CC/RC will be responsible for the list.
Megalive will ask Webrat to be the link between Web Team and Tech Team.
Any Other Business.
Jabiru wants to know if there is going to be a rewrite of irc and or services? Yes there will be send a complete plan to Council and also Council will be consulted about this.
Megalive says Boomer came with the idea to run email lists for users for every country. This item is too long for aob so Roger-UK asks Megalive to send an email with proposals to Council list. Megalive also says that tech Team ticket system will be of wider use. He wants to explain it all, but he will do that by email as this is too long for aob as well.
Radar ( secretary ) wants to point out that it is the third time Nanoman has not been attended to Council meeting. Council asks radar to mail Nanoman about this. She will do that.
Meeting closed at 15.11 hours GMT.
Roger-UK thanks everyone to be here.
