New Agenda Items

• (KO) Should we create GH teams in conda orgs for the CoC committee members? Allowing others to @ us?
  • We already have the @conda-conduct bot account for posting messages from the committee
  • Create a conda/infrastructure requesting team to be created
• (MCS) Nvidia is feeling pain around need to hotfix run_exports. We would like to see about fixing it, but we want to know where it left off. Seems like Jaime got at least most of the way in https://github.com/conda/conda-index/issues/102
• (DG/Travis) Conda office hours, should we do it? Previously discussed here: https://github.com/conda/governance/issues/113 - please share your thoughts on the issue
  • we should make it easy to find current meetings
  • issues mentioned about communication channels
    • CEP by Dave https://github.com/conda/ceps/issues/36
    • conversation about changing community chat https://github.com/conda/communications/issues/29
• (DG/Travis) Alternating conda community meeting times to accomodate for members in other timezones. Travis proposed the following: Conda community sync meetings should alternate between the following two times (UTC): 14:00 UTC (e.g. 16:00 CET; 7:00 PST), 17:00 UTC (e.g. 19:00 CET; 10:00 PST)
  • concern is that changing meeting time will decrease the attendance even more
  • we can't really get everyones input on what time works for them, maybe create a poll?
• (WV) CEPs accepted
  • jinja in recipes
  • recipe rendering
  • sharded repodata
  • still out for vote: test "rendering"
• (WV) Status of sharded repodata implementation?
• Open votes:

  • conda-dot-org to conda github org: https://github.com/conda-incubator/conda-dot-org/issues/110
    • some discussion around voting process, voting inertia.
• (WV) New blog post: https://prefix.dev/blog/pixi_wasm
