WOLFcon will tentatively be in Chicago August 22-24.
PC:
PO recruitment: Khalilah Gambrell spoke about the needs and a success story from the WOLFcon drive, defining clear expectations is key. There is a need to make the role appealing, so benefits to individuals and institutions are apparent.
Council updates
Support SIG: how move bugs forward when there is no longer a development team? Khalilah is thinking about a proposal.
How to accommodate when an institution reaches out with developers? Video from 2017 is out of date. Likely involves lead PO. (But this seems like lumping more work onto one person.) Noted that TC has a bullet about onboarding in draft charter. (See resulting TC Slack conversation.)
Conversation about how funding decisions are made in the CC, and what role the TC plays in that decision making process, if any at all.
If the TC perceives a need for specific resources, how is that conveyed to the CC?

From slack:
Mike Gorrell Hello. Another WOLFcon is being planned (tentatively August 22-24 in Chicago), and we want the FOLIO community to be ready. In order to achieve this we need Volunteers to help plan WOLFcon. Please consider chipping in and join the#folio-wolfcon-planning-group
Take a look at the decision log, migrated decisions
Are any adjustments required?
Do any of these require additional discussion?
Next steps?
Communication about the consolidated decision log? Where? When? Who will do this?

WOLFcon Hot Topics
All
An overview was provided of the "hot topics" at WOLFcon. It seems clear that the TC ought to be involved in these discussions/efforts; what is the best way to participate?
This was brought to my attention earlier today... https://blog.nlnetlabs.nl/open-source-software-vs-the-cyber-resilience-act/ While it's still just a proposal, I think FOLIO should keep an eye on, and maybe even try to get ahead of in anticipation of this. I will add it to the agenda for next week's meeting. This is a short read that does a decent job of laying it all out. Please take a look prior to next Wednesday. Thanks!
Have folks had a chance to read through any of this?
What, if anything do we think the TC should do about this?
Raise awareness among other councils?
Seek legal advice in anticipation of this being passed?
Is there anything else we want to do to be more prepared for this in the event it does get passed?
Primary task the Tc would take on by making FOLIO easier to get up and running. Would also reduce AWS costs so that the money coming from Membership groups can be flowed to other aspects of FOLIO. Tc is the best equipped group to decide on how to make installing and deploying Folio easier and cheaper.
Craig McNally - Brainstorming open ended session with Ian Walls and then discuss further before or after WOLFcon depending on the brainstorming session. Ian Walls and Tod Olson to frame the topics of discussion for the brainstorming.
Today:
Probably defer, but keep on the agenda so we don't lose track of this...
Ian Walls - should be best discussed in cross council meeting possibly at WOLFcon. Idea to was bring this up at a high community level not necessarily the Pc or TC. Doesn't need to be on TC agenda next week. Aspects to be discussed at WOLFcon.
