Notes¶
Discussed transitioning Zoom meetings from NumFOCUS to LF zoom
Jason is leading the Zoom transition, and will reach out to the SSC to work with subprojects on a transition plan
Experimented with how LF Zoom meetings work, how recording can work, etc. It appears we have all of the capabilities we need.
Decision: we can use zoom links that go through the LFX portal (which requires people putting in their email address and/or name, depending on the meeting settings), or we can use direct zoom links. We decided to use direct zoom links in our transition to make the switch seamless.
NumFOCUS told us we had some time to make the transition
Discussed transitioning our Google assets to our new LF Google account
Darian is leading the effort to move the Google drive documents
We moved the Jupyter Executive Council drive from NumFOCUS to LF and experimented with permission settings
NumFOCUS told us we had some time to make the transition
Discussion with LF
Followed up on a community request for a DEI contact at LF. There isn’t a specific point person for DEI efforts at LF, though there are people in various areas addressing DEI, such as events.
Discussed ongoing progress in the Jupyter Foundation fundraising outreach and establishing the new foundation. We explored the possibility of making a middle tier of foundation membership, but decided against it as it would complicate the existing efforts to move forward.

Updating Project Jupyter information in LFX Insights
