continued from global stewardship circle meeting - 14th August 2024
Agenda items:
- Nick: Ahmed is willing to wait for his pay rise but wants to be kept up to date on timing. I propose that I tell him we still can’t increase him to 22euros but will give him monthly updates and increase his rate as soon as we are able. Is this OK?
- Nick: We have had a couple of server outages/deployment issues in the UK. The UK team are asking for the regular global maintenance payments to be used partly to pay someone in the EU time zone to be available to help with server/deployment issues. Can I draft a JD for this?
- Nick: Jo in the UK team would like to get involved with the strategy review that Kirsten’s colleague is planning. Please can we put them in touch with each other?
- Nick: For the sake of transparency should we be using the#global-governance slack channel for planning these meetings? Shall we clear that out of people who are no longer involved then make it a private channel with just us as members?
- (Nick) Do we want to discuss this DM I had from Petros or shall I just reassure him that we value him and if he would like to observe the stewardship meetings he is welcome?
- (Nick) Do we want to review actions from last time?
