Seems like we need a bit added to this process which makes sure big tent projects have their primary IRC channel identified, and a list of core reviewer and meeting chair IRC nicks to ping when something urgent comes up. This isn't just useful for elections, but is probably something the VMT would appreciate as well, and likely anyone else who has an urgent need to make contact with a team. I think it might also be useful if we could make the meeting bot remind teams of any pending actions they need to take such as elections upon #startmeeting. Seems like all of that could be automated. __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
