* May 15, 2021 meeting
+- Next actions from last time
+ - People-based:
+ - zaeph:
+ - bandali:
+ - Listing the specs for the non-FH servers (very quick)
+ - Done!
+ - Wipe the private-repo
+ - Will be done shorty; although we might want to keep it around for working on WIP stuff
+
+- Check-ins:
+ - zaeph:
+ - Got his vaccine!
+ - bandali:
+ - Will get his vaccine in a couple of weeks
+ - sachac:
+ - Taking care of kiddo today.
+ - mplsCorwin:
+ - It’s been a while!
+ - Voluntereed for Worg maintenance.
+
+- bandali & zaeph: BBB update report
+ - bandali successfully managed to update our BBB instance on bbb (the server)
+ - The update was supposed to only include security stuff; somehow, something still managed to break
+ - Debian and Ubuntu usually are pretty strict about security updates not breaking anything; if manual intervention is required, they print a popup
+ - The explanation here might be that it’s coming from a 3rd-party provider, which probably has less polish
+ - The FSF’s BBB instance is running on two servers which are managed via ansible
+ - However, we had a problem with the echo server dying on us, and we only noticed when Emacs-SF needed to go live
+ - The fix was to reset nginx, since something had been updated
+ - Fix for the future:
+ - When we update the server, we need to check if everything is still working
+ - If we set up auto-updates on a cron, we might want to have it fire on Sundays so that an orgas can check if everything still works
+
+- Recordings from the FSF’s BBB
+ - zaeph downloaded the old recordings from the FSF’s server
+ - They’re stored on his server
+
+- Emacs-SF [2021-05-13 Thu]: Getting recording from FSF’s BBB
+ - Recording is not available on the [[https://testgreenlight.fsf.org/leo-hh9-v49][room]]
+ - bandali is going to check
+
+- Podcast
+ - bandali started working on the website
+ - We can push the discussion to next week
+
+- EmacsConf Improvement Meeting
+ - Sending an email on [2021-06-05 Sat] (3 weeks from now) to share conclusions from our debriefs
+ - This would provide some guidance for the discussion, and give people a month of prep if they want to participate
+ - The announcement is nice and important, but we should provide details on the bulletpoints that we’d be talking about (with like 2-3 lines to give food-for-thought to the people)
+ - bandali is
+
+- Demantling the private repo
+ - bandali was thinking of wiping/shreding all the git history, and only keep the simple files going forward (i.e. without VCS)
+ - Typically, we don’t need to track most of the changes in those files.
