<br />
Items I think we need to discuss<br />
<br />
1. Regular meetings - I suggest the first Wednesday of each month. Same<br />
time, same channel.<br />
2. Have we gotten the webpages, by-laws etc. fixed and functional? Mange<br />
ongoing maintenance?<br />
3. Develop clear USPP goals. (long term)<br />
4. Discuss cross state support for local elections such as a pirate<br />
campaign fund. (long term)<br />
... Try and not get lost in the weeds -- keep up positive activity via<br />
the mail list.<br />
<br />
*To Do list:<br />
<br />
**Social Media Strategy - Liz has been handling most of the social media, but she's resigning, however she'll be happy to continue with it. <br />
<br />
Dump Facebook vs Reach the most people<br />
<br />
Values, bylaws (possibly rewrite them?), consider adding new platforms <br />
<br />
**Maintenance of the website/wiki aka we need a new IT team asap. Wiki is down, no copy of bylaws around. (damn) <br />

<pre><br />
[21:00]<Bosun> Shall we get the moving?<br />
[21:00] <Bosun> this<br />
[21:00] <Bluestreak_> aye<br />
[21:01] <Bluestreak_> Agenda https://pnc.piratenpad.de/44<br />
[21:01] <jokeefe> sure<br />
[21:02] <Bosun> Anyone else here?<br />
[21:02] <FaerieGodfather> I plan on participating in this meeting. Viktyr Gehrig from Laramie WY.<br />
[21:03] <Bosun> State representatives - any other state representatives?<br />
[21:04] <FaerieGodfather> Point of order: I do not qualify as a state representative because the Wyoming Pirate Party only has two members.<br />
[21:05] <Bosun> Yes - we have an issue with attendance<br />
[21:05] <Bosun> that is we need to herd the cats to the next meeting?<br />
[21:05] <Bluestreak_> MAPP has officer only meetings all the time. Why can't USPP?<br />
[21:05] <mdupont> hi all i have to take care of my baby boy here so cannot chat<br />
[21:05] <FaerieGodfather> This would be a busy meeting if half the lurkers spoke up.<br />
[21:06] <Bosun> I don't mind officer only - OK this is an open executive meeting<br />
[21:06] <Bluestreak_> Can we blast annoying sounds and hope they have their speakers turned up?<br />
[21:07] <jokeefe> 1,2 can be decided by officers, 3,4 can be discussed<br />
[21:07] <jokeefe> I believe we already decided on state meetings every two weeks<br />
[21:07] <jokeefe> so if we do 1/mo, we are still doing better than we have<br />
[21:08] <FaerieGodfather> My main interest in this meeting is expanding the platform.<br />
[21:08] <Bosun> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Pipeaboard.ogg<br />
[21:08] <papegaai> Title: File:Pipeaboard.ogg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (at en.wikipedia.org)<br />
[21:08] <Bosun> ... annoying sound<br />
[21:08] <Bluestreak_> My main concern is what happened to the wiki?<br />
[21:09] <Bluestreak_> Also blog access<br />
[21:09] <Bluestreak_> There are somethings that need fixing<br />
[21:09] <Bosun> OK - do we agree on first wednesday of each month?<br />
[21:09] <Bluestreak_> No objection<br />
[21:09] <Bosun> OK let's discuss the web situation<br />
[21:10] <Bosun> wiki is broken? gone?<br />
[21:10] <jokeefe> sure, first wed of month<br />
[21:10] <jokeefe> wiki was overrun with spam and possibly compromised. Caleb took it down.<br />
[21:11] <Bosun> good - we can advertise the time and try getting more to show up<br />
[21:11] <jokeefe> We have the archives & data and are rebuilding it<br />
[21:11] <Bluestreak_> Who is "we"<br />
[21:11] <jokeefe> would be good to know who the state party contacts are for those who are active<br />
[21:11] <Bosun> Caleb I guess<br />
[21:12] <Bosun> I'll go on FB and Google+ and try finding contacts<br />
[21:12] <FaerieGodfather> The forums were also taken down for spam and misuse. I would like to see them restored with better security; IRC is a terrible medium for policy discussions.<br />
[21:12] <jokeefe> Mike is working on it<br />
[21:13] <Bosun> Estimated Time to repair?<br />
[21:13] == Jarvich [webchat@15-007-013-064.chyn.qwest.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 244 seconds]<br />
[21:13] <jokeefe> We have contact pages on the blog. Suggest putting them there<br />
[21:13] == YariValtean [webchat@46-463-958-94.dhcp.mdsn.wi.charter.com] has joined #uspp<br />
[21:13] <YariValtean> Francis Klein, Wisconsin. Sorry I'm late, what have I missed?<br />
[21:14] <Bosun> I still don't have access - at least I don't think so.<br />
[21:14] <Bosun> Your it my friend.<br />
[21:14] <Bluestreak_> Do we need to id?<br />
[21:14] <Bosun> Yes<br />
[21:14] <Bosun> Joe Klein - USPP Captain<br />
[21:15] <jokeefe> you can also use the state contact lists at https://web.archive.org/web/20150301193805/http://uspirates.org/wiki/Main_Page<br />
[21:15] <papegaai> Title: United States Pirate Party (at web.archive.org)<br />
[21:16] <Bosun> Got that I'll make it my job to try contacting everyone tomorrow<br />
[21:16] <jokeefe> James O’Keefe, Massachusetts<br />
[21:16] <Bosun> Please finish IDs<br />
[21:16] <CaptainRedBeard> Bob, Colorado<br />
[21:17] <Bluestreak_> Lucia Fiero, Mass<br />
[21:17] <Bosun> OK then ...<br />
[21:18] <Bosun> If we can get the wiki up we can partially reconstruct for the web wayback<br />
[21:19] <Bosun> Do we have a git archive location?<br />
[21:20] <jokeefe> not yet. lots of spam to remove<br />
[21:21] <Bosun> week? month?<br />
[21:22] <jokeefe> don’t know. will ask<br />
[21:22] == Johannes [~chatzilla@65.131.hp.nus] has joined #uspp<br />
[21:23] <FaerieGodfather> (Welcome, Johannes. Meeting in progress.)<br />
[21:25] <Bosun> OK - other items?<br />
[21:25] <FaerieGodfather> I need blog access to post my Pirate Interviews.<br />
[21:25] <jokeefe> so we want a schedule of blog posts?<br />
[21:26] <CaptainRedBeard> The agenda mentioned possibly needing a new IT team, does the IT team need additional resources?<br />
[21:27] <Bosun> I think we just need to manage what we have.<br />
[21:28] <jokeefe> yes, the IT needs help.<br />
[21:28] <Bosun> Do jokeefe and blue streak have access to bothe the web page and the wiki?<br />
[21:29] <Bluestreak_> Not that I know of.<br />
[21:29] <jokeefe> we have a list. I asked the 22 people on it to talk about how they wanted to help, but haven’t heard back yet<br />
[21:29] <Bluestreak_> jokeefe do you have access?<br />
[21:29] <jokeefe> I had access to the wiki.<br />
[21:29] <jokeefe> I have access to the blog<br />
[21:29] <jokeefe> Bluestreak has an account on the blog<br />
[21:30] <Bluestreak_> I proably do too then.<br />
[21:30] <Bluestreak_> I just have to rustle up my creds<br />
[21:30] <Bosun> can I be added and a password sent to my bosun@wipp.coop account?<br />
[21:30] <jokeefe> Ping me if you need to get a new password<br />
[21:30] <jokeefe> already are<br />
[21:31] <Bosun> OK<br />
[21:31] <Bluestreak_> Will do.<br />
[21:33] <Bosun> Well the two big items - regular meeting, and web/wiki are at least moving forward.<br />
[21:34] <jokeefe> cleaning out spam akismet hasn’t dealt with.<br />
[21:34] <jokeefe> some of it is almost convincing: Hi my name is Sandra and I just wanted to drop you a quick note here instead of calling you. I discovered your US Pirate Party, Lessig, and the State of US Democracy | United States Pirate Party page and noticed you could have a lot more hits. I have found that the key to running a successful website is making sure the visitors you are getting are interested in your subject matter. There i<br />
[21:34] <jokeefe> company that you can get targeted traffic from and they let you try their service for free for 7 days. I managed to get over 300 targeted visitors to day to my website. Visit them here:<br />
[21:34] <Bosun> Can FaerieGodfather give Bluestreak the interviews to post?<br />
[21:34] <FaerieGodfather> Yes, I can do that.<br />
[21:35] <jokeefe> can add FaerieGodfather as a contributor<br />
[21:35] <jokeefe> or you can<br />
[21:35] <FaerieGodfather> Either way. It's more convenient if I have an account, but I don't have a problem with sending my posts in to someone with an account.<br />
[21:36] <Bosun> jokeefe - please do<br />
[21:36] <jokeefe> ok<br />
[21:36] <Bosun> I seem challenged on getting access for some reason.<br />
[21:37] <CaptainRedBeard> jokeefe: I can pitch in and help with IT, I'm jack of all trades but good with problem solving and finding the right resources<br />
[21:38] <jokeefe> great! thank you. please email me at jokeefe at jamesokeefe do org<br />
[21:39] <jokeefe> faeriegodfather, added you. email me if you don’t get the sign up page<br />
[21:39] <FaerieGodfather> Heh. I was just emailing you.<br />
[21:39] <Bosun> So we have assignments now?<br />
[21:40] <jokeefe> ?<br />
[21:41] <CaptainRedBeard> quick question to the new board, will there be any standing committees?<br />
[21:41] <Bosun> I will work on going through the old contact info a see who I can get ahold of<br />
[21:41] <Bosun> We have made non yet other than our cranky IT<br />
[21:42] <jokeefe> besides SAB and IT, I don’t think we have the people to do it<br />
[21:42] <jokeefe> CaptainRedBeard<br />
[21:42] <Bosun> jokeefe - you are working on the spam deletion and wiki restoration?<br />
[21:43] <jokeefe> Mike has wiki restoration<br />
[21:43] <Bosun> OK<br />
[21:43] <jokeefe> Akismet seems not to be getting all the spam<br />
[21:43] <jokeefe> got half of it at least<br />
[21:43] <Bosun> Mike is working on wiki restoration<br />
[21:43] <jokeefe> tempted to move everything in pending to spam<br />
[21:44] <jokeefe> Suggest people review Swarmwise https://falkvinge.net/2013/02/14/swarmwise-the-tactical-manual-to-changing-the-world-chapter-one/<br />
[21:44] <FaerieGodfather> jokeefe: Set my password. I'm good to go.<br />
[21:44] <Bluestreak_> No but read Swarmwise, tho<br />
[21:44] <jokeefe> great FaerieGodfather<br />
[21:46] <Bosun> Am I not being swarm 'nuff?<br />
[21:46] <Bluestreak_> Trust me<br />
[21:49] <Bosun> we need a more engaged swarm<br />
[21:49] <jokeefe> yes<br />
[21:51] <Bosun> I'll pop for a github account and we should talk about doing database backups to avoid single point failure<br />
[21:51] <jokeefe> agreed<br />
[21:53] <Bosun> I am willing to give jokeefe ssh access to my humble web server for dumps.<br />
[21:53] <Bluestreak_> That's very generous of you<br />
[21:53] <Bosun> not really<br />
[21:53] <jokeefe> hopefully not needed, but thanks<br />
[21:54] <Bosun> OK<br />
[21:54] <Bosun> just ask f you need it ...<br />
[21:54] <Bosun> if<br />
[21:55] <Bosun> My typing will get worse - I'm going to try learning Dvorak keyboard.<br />
[21:55] <jokeefe> how long do you want this meeting to go?<br />
[21:55] <Bluestreak_> We keep ours to an hour<br />
[21:55] <Bosun> Shall we call it a night - or shall we discuss something else<br />
[21:56] <Bluestreak_> Keeps attendance high I think<br />
[21:56] <Bluestreak_> I am so beat<br />
[21:56] <Bluestreak_> I should be better in two weeks<br />
[21:56] <Bosun> we adjourn?<br />
[21:56] <Bluestreak_> 2nd<br />
[21:56] <Bosun> ok<br />
[21:56] <jokeefe> aye<br />
[21:57] <Bosun> I'll write up some proposals for next month and post them.<br />
[21:57] <Bosun> Soon I hope<br />
[21:57] <Bosun> aye<br />
[21:57] <Bluestreak_> I will post the minites to the pad<br />
[21:57] <YariValtean> aye<br />
[21:57] <Bosun> fantastic<br />
[21:57] <jokeefe> found four non spam posts<br />
[21:57] <Bluestreak_> Don't know how to put the date into the url like Lindsay used to<br />
[21:58] <jokeefe> 3 from 2015<br />
[21:58] <Bosun> iso dates sort<br />
[21:58] <Bosun> anything useful?<br />
[21:59] <Bosun> the post from 2015 and 14?<br />
[22:00] <jokeefe> 2015 probably<br />
[22:00] <jokeefe> bit late to reply, but a personal email might be nice<br />
[22:00] <Bosun> A warning from the guardian of time to not support Trump?<br />
