| fungi | did you want me to chair? | 14:08 |
| spotz[m] | Ack sorry I posted on the tc channel and got distracted! | 14:11 |
| fungi | no worries, it's probably just us again anyway | 14:12 |
| spotz[m] | Still getting used to just using Element, Limechat has a memory leak:( | 14:12 |
| spotz[m] | Probably | 14:12 |

| spotz[m] | #topic Summit recap | 14:14 |
| spotz[m] | Overall I think Summit went well, Allison mentioned forgetting to mention the new CoC during the keynotes as she had attended but she did mention the survey and our meeting | 14:15 |
| spotz[m] | attended=intended | 14:15 |
| spotz[m] | s/attended/intended/ | 14:15 |
| spotz[m] | Ha we'll see how the ability to edit in Element affects the log:) | 14:15 |
| spotz[m] | I was pleased with the number of folks we had at Speed Mentoring. I'd say 95% of the folks were there to be mentored or to mentor with just a few extra there for pancakes and if needed | 14:16 |
| fungi | sounded like we again had more mentors than mentees? | 14:18 |
| spotz[m] | Nope more mentees then mentors:) We had about 38 people I'd say 15ish mentors and the rest mentees | 14:19 |
| fungi | oh, excellent. so 2-3 mentees per mentor | 14:19 |
| fungi | er, i misread. so a little over 1 mentee per mentor | 14:20 |
| spotz[m] | The original numbers I had from Jimmy were all mentors but once I kept getting an updated spreadsheet I wasn't seeing that | 14:20 |
| fungi | cool, that explains my earlier misunderstanding | 14:20 |
| spotz[m] | I think there were some tables that were more 1:1 but others were 1:2-3, depended on the topic | 14:21 |
| fungi | any feel for what the mentees were mostly interested in? career development? code contribution? other activities? | 14:22 |
| spotz[m] | Career was probably the most popular, then tech and community where close to each other | 14:22 |
| fungi | i can't remember if we survey them in the sign-up form | 14:22 |
| fungi | i guess we must | 14:22 |
| spotz[m] | We do and originally I had no career mentors so put out a request for folks to swap and they did | 14:23 |
| fungi | oh that's awesome | 14:24 |
| spotz[m] | That's one of the main reasons to ask, so we know we have mentors in place | 14:24 |
| fungi | makes sense | 14:24 |
| spotz[m] | The way it's been going and the room setups it's been easier to have a multiple mentors at the table with the mentees and no one swapping until towards the end if someone wants to try something new | 14:26 |
| spotz[m] | The diversity lunch I felt had organizational issues, there wasn't really anyone there to run it. I'd asked a few times if there was anything they needed our help with and was told no but I still felt the need to get up and thank our sponsor | 14:29 |
| fungi | yeah, that was... confusing | 14:30 |
| fungi | according to allison, it turns out that bloomberg (who volunteered to sponsor and set up the event) didn't know we had a diversity and inclusion working group | 14:31 |
| spotz[m] | bangs head on desk | 14:31 |
| spotz[m] | I'm not sure how we can promote ourselves more. I send emails to every email list, I offered our help as we didn't have a direct contact name | 14:34 |
| fungi | yeah, it's possible aprice[m] has suggestions on how to better get sponsors on the same page as (and in contact with) the community next time | 14:37 |
| spotz[m] | In the past there's generally been someone from the sponsor in the group or like when we changed to Diversity Lunch from Women of OpenStack lunch we had a go between from the Foundation talking to Red Hat. | 14:39 |
| fungi | yep. in particular, if bloomberg as an org is interested in helping with the diversity of our communities then it would be great for someone there to get involved in the wg | 14:41 |
| spotz[m] | Only person I know for sure from Bloomberg is Chris Morgan and he wasn't at Summit that I saw | 14:42 |
| spotz[m] | I think every other initiative or ask we had went well that I saw | 14:44 |
| fungi | yes, all in all i think we got what we wanted | 14:50 |
| fungi | any idea what sort of response volume we're looking at for the updated survey so far? | 14:50 |
| spotz[m] | I was actually looking for that earlier hang on | 14:51 |
| fungi | i set a personal goal for this quarter of trying to ramp up diversity survey response volume, but knowing where we're starting from would be helpful | 14:52 |
| spotz[m] | I had a link looking | 14:52 |
| spotz[m] | 4 | 14:53 |
| fungi | that's... one more than we had when we checked during summit week i guess | 14:53 |
| fungi | unless i'm misremembering | 14:53 |
| spotz[m] | Yeah I think so. We'll need to keep pushing it publicly | 14:53 |
| spotz[m] | You have anything else? I think we hit on everything | 14:57 |
| fungi | nope, guess we have a couple of minutes to prepare for the tc call | 14:57 |
| spotz[m] | That's later I have 2 meetings before that:) | 14:57 |

| fungi | oh, right, it's an internal foundation staff call i have now | 14:58 |
| fungi | and this is why i should look at my schedule rather than trusting my memory | 14:58 |
| spotz[m] | hehe | 15:13 |
