So he will start including that info in emails he sends out. 07:34:42 that's what happens when you miss a PTG and Summit 07:34:45 nice 07:34:53 I still need to ping Heidi about it, but I might wait till the new year since everything has slowed downn a bunch. 07:35:03 mattoliverau, yeah, maybe you should stop doing that ;) 07:35:21 don't worry, no more kids for me :) 07:35:32 Lol\ 07:36:07 Still need to present the docs to the board, but I was going to wait till the board of directors individual election concludes so we can get all the new people on the same page 07:36:20 * diablo_rojo doesn't remember when that is happening off the top of her head 07:36:40 makes sense 07:36:42 mid-late Jan IIRC 07:36:57 Yeah that sounds right. 07:37:07 So as soon as that thing happens, I will get on the agenda 07:37:19 #link https://www.openstack.org/election/2019-individual-director-election/ 07:37:22 I know nominations are going on right now. 07:37:36 in the meantime, I'll try and catch up with everything I missed. 07:38:00 Oh so nominations are done. 07:38:54 mattoliverau, sounds good, you have plenty of time :) 07:39:00 diablo_rojo: yeah looks like it 07:39:03 Anything else on this topic? 07:39:44 nope 07:40:29 Alright.
