Answered a lot of emails and had a lot of discussions. As for things I actually crossed off my todo list:
- Updated CiviCRM requirements document with a few more process
like the travel committee. Met with Dave Greenberg from CiviCRM. He
gave me a lot of pointers on how to get started. I'll be working on
getting CiviCRM set up for the GNOME Foundation over the next couple of
weeks.
- Sent out email about the GNOME Foundation changing advisory board fees with the support of the advisory board.
- Spoke to the Northern Colorado Linux User Group.
Gave my "Would you do it again for free?" talk and had a very
interesting and involved discussion. Someone from the first team I ever
worked on at HP held up a "I heart ObAM" sign. ObAM is the user
interface programming interface for HPUX tools. It sat on top of Motif
when I first joined the team. (I actually had to read the sign twice to
see that it said ObAM and not Obama which is a sign of how my world of
acronyms and names has changed.)
- Did all my expense reports for the last three trips. (I can't
believe people griped about the semi-automated HP/Amex system. I
personally would love to have it now.)
- Attended GNOME Board of Directors meeting.
- Worked with Rosanna to invoice a couple of advisory board members, including one that is funding a new program.
- Had a meeting with Rosanna over IRC. Trying to help balance out
her workload. (I've created a lot more work. Since I've joined we've
had a lot more events, invoicing, new programs, more Friends of GNOME,
etc.)
- Had a great GNOME Advisory Board meeting about events and
copyright assignments. The copyright assignment discussion in
particular was very dynamic.
- Published November Friends of GNOME data.
Focus for this week:
- My goals. Finishing a draft we can share so everyone can comment.
- CiviCRM. Getting it set up. Starting first with Board of Advisors information and then Friends of GNOME.
