Monday

Weekly CommArch call-in
Dropped Jono an email to find out how we can help with CLS (Mako doesn't know either.)
Got swag donated for POSSE! O'Reilly rocks!
Chatted with Sebastian to make sure we are set with the Edu SIG and POSSE spin.
- Both those pages have been overhauled pretty substantially. I plan to use them as examples of good - or at least becoming-good - wiki pages later.
- The spin has also been blogged.
- And announced on the POSSE list for feedback.
- Also, can I say again that Sebastian is awesome?
responded to all the RH intern feedback on POSSE. Yay more leads!
- Does anyone have access to a paper called A managerial overview of open source software by Sandeep Krishnamurty? It was recommended by the MBA interns.
took a quick pass/listen through what's happening with Fedora docs/marketing to get context for website work.
read Karsten's and Greg's book (outlines) over lunch. Next pass will contain commentary.

edits to Greg's edu strategy slides
fold this and this into notes on this - proceeding slowly as I learn my way around.
followed up with Marsee on POSSE swag. Yay O'Reilly! (Yes, I'm doing a lot of rejoicing. I have a lot of happiness. Get used to it. ;)
inbox zero! inbox zero! ahahaha! (This will last... about 2 minutes.)
lunch with Mo; talk Fedora website - see notes here and here
and then introduced myself to the website team, and otherwise joined it (except for group membership, which I will request as soon as I have actually Done Something Real.) (Update: actually, I think I'm moving fast enough to ask for this. Done.)
started edu sig spin production work with Sebastian. (oi, I want momentum to build faster here...)
made some wiki shortcuts to get around easier, shared them
got the edu sig's pages into (what I think is) wiki standard goodness, see Talk:SIGs/Education#Following_wiki_standards - asking ianweller to take a look and see if it's done right, also sent to edu sig and wiki team.

Greg's slides, again
pwn POSSE task list once again (speakers and swag especially)
Karsten/Greg book-readin': now with commentatin' action.
learn how to do expense reports (hooray)
do that for July flights, too
Follow-up with Kara on POSSE press
Follow-up with Marsee
package edu spin bookmarks in order to (1) learn packaging and (2) prod edu sig members to jump in
draft that websites game plan!
play piano like a maniac - first jam session of the summer!
