Membership
- we'll update the documentation about becoming a member to match the simplified rules
- we'll make sure non-technical contributions (for example helping at openSUSE conferences or helping with translations) are included as examples
- membership for proven active contributors:
- we (ideally someone from the membership commitee) will reach out to groups like forum admins and remind them that they can easily become a member for what they are doing
- we won't send out such reminders to individual persons
oSC18 review / post mortem
- we decided to dedicate the next meeting complete for the conference
- AI everybody (board and community): send feedback about oSC18 - what did you like, what should we improve?
