Followup

  • When can we announce [infra] credits? - PSF drafting a letter to [other] contact - that they will be getting PSF infra

  • Packaging WG approving fund reallocation – Ernest & Dustin, could you project your current end dates based on that? Yes

  • Mark: Facebook & NLNet grants: see above

Bug triage

User support ticket system https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/issues/3231

  • Sumana asks: prioritize higher?

  • look for a support queue instead of GitHub issues

  • find inexpensive commercial solution and pay for out of Packaging WG funds

  • build a simple queue into Warehouse?

  • Resolution: revisit in 2 weeks when team is reassembled, see who has time to investigate

Need from Donald

  • transparent [sponsor] logo (sponsor really, Ernest can email our contact)

TODO

  • Ernest & Dustin - project end dates based on updated fund allocation

  • review part of NL Net grant “compare project with existing projects” - Mark will grab from Open Tech Fund application

  • trim NL Net grant application since we can only ask for $35,000 - SH will do, coordinate with Ernest

  • Mark needs licenses and binaries for HashiCorp from Ernest (not high priority)
