Haiku Admin Meeting 2007-05-28: <ul> <li>Discussion about new "Admin organizer" internal-use website for managing tasks, admin votes, etc.</li> <li>Some discussion took place about possibly organizing a physical "admin gathering" somewhere.</li> <li>Michael Lotz has volunteered, and is currently a primary candidate for "Project management" type tasks.</li> <li>Mention of the need to assign/complete the Haiku, Inc. 2006 financial publication.</li> <li>Discussed Haiku Compatible Badges:</li> It appears many are currently in favor of Stephan's designs.

Mention of possible "Haiku powered" or "Haiku inside" on a badge.

Should open-vote be used similar to the icon sets? Further discussion about decision will be moved to Admin mailing list.

Currently collecting all the "entries" from the <a href="/community/ml#haiku">General Mailing List</a>.

<li>Some WalterCon scheduling options discussed:</li> Discussed what types of content should be provided for attendees.

Reminder of <a href="http://www.my3q.com/view/viewSummary.phtml?questid=168689">survey results</a>. (Ed note: Survey should now be closed as of June 1, 2007) Note that most attendees could fall into "User" and "Application Developer" categories.

Possibly an audio driver API presentation? <li>Discussion about Haiku Compatibility List:</li> Should it remain as an external site - or try to move it to the official site? If hosted internally, should it still be primarily a community-driven effort? This would probably ensure it remains up-to-date.

Karl should be contacted to discuss options.

<li>Discussed possibility of opening a "bounties" section on the official site:</li> Bounties should be reasonable.

Could both Haiku-sponsored bounties and community-initiated bounties be supported? If yes, they should be clearly separated to avoid confusion about sponsorship.

</ul> That wraps it up for the May 28, 2007 meeting. I would like to remind readers that any official discussion about the decisions made by the Haiku Admins should be directed to the <a href="/community/ml#haiku">General Mailing List</a>. Any mistakes in this summary may be posted in the comments if desired or you may use my <a href="/user/12/contact">contact page</a>.
