Hi,

I think it's pretty clear that several BoD members, me included, have misunderstood the implication of such vote. Especially 1b. So, my take is to vote on Guilhems proposal, detailed bellow. Which I support.

"rewind branches on https://git.libreoffice.org/online and for the time being deny all write
operations to the repository, be it on the git or gerrit side. It'll
freeze the state of the dashboard, notification, and other clones for
free, and if/when we decide to accept contributions again everything
will be just one switch away."

+1 from me.

+1 from me

+1, but I think the proposal misses some bits. I'll try to cope with them:

* branches will be rewinded to commit (or the commits before)
4ca4fd34169dd386c2fa57bd28650c00b23d6864 (last commit before changes by
Collabora)
* OpenGrok needs to point to the TDF git/gerrit
* revert decision 1b and (if feasible) point TDF repo on GitHub on
git/gerrit on TDF infra.

After this bits, I think this whole votes needs another round of
confirmation - to be sure that also these bits are consensual.

Hi Florian,

based on the previous discussion, putting the following to VOTE now:

Ask the marketing team to summarize the new LibreOffice Online
information website (see vote item #1 in
https://listarchives.tdf.io/i/4bCUE2Lh2ffa-M8da8zEfPF7) in the release
notes, adding a link to the full page

[Note: The content of that website is currently edited and discussed and
should be finished soon.]

  I'm really not a huge fan of the board voting in such detail on these
specific sorts of actions. I'm rather confident in our marketing team
doing what's sensible and incorporating feedback to move us in a
reasonable direction perhaps based on high-level guidance from the board.

Agreed.

  Nevertheless the above seems un-controversial =)

Glad it is - +1 also for me.

Cheers,

Yes, obviously the flood of messages that arrive in the inbox makes it difficult to follow the thread of all the conversations. Also, Guilhem's proposal is splitted into a couple o messages.
However, in the spirit of making progress on this issue and avoiding further delays, I think we could consider the vote as inclusive of what Emiliano mentions.

If the above is not shared by fellow Board members I will conduct another round of voting, or perhaps we can close with a +1 to the amendment mentioned by Emiliano. With which, by the way, I agree.

Hi all,

there were already sensible remarks from other board members, so not to bring more complexity in here, just

+1 from my side.

Thanks
Lothar

Ah sorry, too much voting in one thread - yep, +1 to that proposal!

Yep, that was implied, +1

* OpenGrok needs to point to the TDF git/gerrit

Yep, that was Guilhem's proposal, +1

* revert decision 1b and (if feasible) point TDF repo on GitHub on
git/gerrit on TDF infra.

That was the compromise I had suggested last year, to have github track
github, not the frozen gerrit. As such, -1.

+1 from me.

Apologies for being late here, which such mail flood is hard to follow up every single thread.

+1 from my side

+1 also on Emiliano's comment.

Hello,

The Board of Directors at the time of voting consists of 7 seat holders (not including deputies). In order to be quorate, the vote needs to have 1/2 or more of the Board of Directors members, which gives 4.

A total of 7 Board of Directors members have participated in the vote.

The vote is quorate.

A quorum could be reached with a simple majority of 4 votes.

Ask the marketing team to summarize the new LibreOffice Online information website (see vote item #1 in https://listarchives.tdf.io/i/4bCUE2Lh2ffa-M8da8zEfPF7) in the release notes, adding a link to the full page

Result of vote: 7 approvals, 0 abstain, 0 disapproval.
One deputy is in favor.
Decision: The proposal has been accepted.

Florian

Apologies for being late here, mail flood is hard to manage.

+1 from my side

quick vote reminder - please, everyone, give your vote on that extended vote, so we can finalize this pending decision as well.

Thanks,

Sorry, thought I already did answer in this vote, but there were some remarks from Emiliano, so:

Still +1 also for the clarification of Emiliano throughout,

because with the latest infos from Guilhem and as we then do not have another tooling / play ground in TDF for acquiring new contributors this makes sense to me.

Best Lothar

Hi Emiliano,

* revert decision 1b and (if feasible) point TDF repo on GitHub on
git/gerrit on TDF infra.

Other BoD members are already voting on this but I have trouble understanding
what that means. From https://listarchives.tdf.io/i/gVuesWC6ZI0MUequqiqJ3nrc

1b. to switch the https://github.com/libreoffice/online mirror to
instead mirror the Collabora repo, for the time being, and make sure we
catch pull requests there, e.g. via the mentoring alias on TDF side

Before that https://github.com/libreoffice/online was a read-only mirror
for https://git.libreoffice.org/online , so by “revert decision 1b” I
guess you mean to make it so again? Should both this and
https://listarchives.tdf.io/i/IbatXLjaK38BCbLBNiiw7Ned be approved, this
would mean that the tip of the master branch on both
https://git.libreoffice.org/online and https://github.com/libreoffice/online
would point to 4ca4fd34169dd386c2fa57bd28650c00b23d6864^. (As was the
case between the Oct 1 and the implementation of the aforementioned BoD
decision.)

But what do you mean by the second part of your proposal: “(if feasible)
point TDF repo on GitHub on git/gerrit on TDF infra”? I can't think of
an interpretation that's not already covered by “revert decision 1b”.

Cheers
