Hi all, I think we cannot simply move to IRC-only meetings without adapting our ways-of-working in some respect. When looking at communities which use IRC-only meetings, there is also a stronger use of complementary tools to facilitate a reviewing process of a proposal, for example specs get reviewed in detail on Gerrit and (optionally) brought to IRC meetings once the majority of questions have been discussed. I find it hard to discuss complex issues on IRC only and in an ad-hoc fashion without such a round of asynchronous in-depth reviews (my personal opinion).
I this context, I very much like Manuel's proposal to use such a mechanism for reviewing (project) proposals in addition to the voice calls we have today. Also, recordings are no efficient replacement for written notes. I don't mind recording the meetings to make sure we really capture everything, but it is not a good means of documenting results.

I have been part of forums with IRC only meetings that were very effective however they were more technical meetings and problem focused. I don’t think that IRC only (no audio) works well for the type of planning, review, strategy and other discussion topics we cover in the TSC. It seems to me that some time ago our TSC meeting notes were very effective and efficient … this was when notes were mostly captured by IRC with the bulk of the responsibility for this on the PM (Ray at the time) and with the TSC members providing supplemental comments, additional notes and corrections. Presentations and other rich media were posted on the Wiki with the agenda for that meeting so always easy to find. Losing our PM caused the burden for meeting notes to shift to TSC members. IMO taking notes is within the scope of what we can reasonably expect from the PM role. Recording IMO is not effective … in my experience few if any go back to review a recording, invariably they just ask their questions to somebody who was at the meeting which is far more efficient from their perspective. I also think that recording negatively impacts quality of other notes and meeting artifacts including links, presentations etc. since its assumed that everything is available in the recording. /Trevor From: opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org <opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org> On Behalf Of Manuel Buil Sent: Wednesday, October 9, 2019 6:00 AM To: opnfv-tech-discuss@lists.opnfv.org; mbei...@vmware.com Cc: opnfv-...@lists.opnfv.org Subject: Re: [opnfv-tech-discuss] [opnfv-tsc] TSC Meeting Artifacts Hello, If we move to IRC-only meetings we will not able able to present slides or share documents and talk about them, right?. Would there be a way to fill this gap? If we post the recording, does that mean that there will not be any MoMs anymore (in written format)?

There has been some discussion about improving the accuracy of how we capture discussions in the TSC meeting. Right now the only official record is the IRC meetbot logs, which requires that there is a note taker who can effectively transcribe all that discussions from the audio portion of the Zoom bridge into IRC. In addition to that, any presentations must also be posted via #link, and if they are not yet available, that information might be lost. I think now is a time to open the discussion about how we as a community want to share the full content of our TSC meetings. Some options are listed below: * Record the Zoom meeting and post the recording as part of the official record * Remove the Zoom portion and move to a pure IRC only meeting There are advantages as disadvantages to both, so please reply with your comments. Also, should this discussion be expanded to include the whole community to ensure we are meeting their requests for transparency?
