As a group, review the list of decisions we made previously on these topics

• Did we make the adjustments below?
• Is there anything else we need to do here?

Technical Council - Governance Decisions

one question has arisen: "What is the half-plus-one rule?"

Zak Burke  and Jeremy Huff  stated, the Quorum is half plus one.

Tod Olson clarifies: A quorum is how many member of the TC must vote. Jakub Skoczen : Proxies have the right to voted and therefore are counted like TC members.

• 6 or more needed for a vote.
• There is already a draft about code of conduct for meetings
• Jeremy Huff should we rename the above page to a more specific name? Tod Olson : Governance? Process?

Done! Thanks Vijay!

• Jeremy Huff open question is to whether this is really under TC's purview? TC Charter explicitly says "resourcing" is not our thing, so this feels like a bit of a gray area. Mike Gorrell but ... if not TC then who? By process of elimination, feels like TC is best suited to offer advice here. Jakub Skoczen we have also been asked to review requests for new envs. Feels like this could/should be handled by a dedicated group from devops/sysops. Maybe Peter Murray and OLF sysops group is in a place to offer good info here? Folks on TC don't look at the bills, so not the best-placed group to make decisions. Jeremy Huff we can describe usefulness of different envs, but leave decision to a group that actually deals with bills/funding. But we probably need a somewhat systematic way to keep these evals fresh so is not laborious every time we are asked for input. Tod Olson soliciting input from outside TC is likely crucial here. Jakub Skoczen to ask Peter Murray to help organize such a group.
  
  

Get an update on this if Jakub Skoczen  is present.

There was also a question about 3 expensive environments - Do we need to discuss this?

Peter: We have a annual budget cap for AWS environments + AWS credits.

Mark: Those expensive environment are for performance testing, Folijet. They can take steps to cut cost.

Zak: New environments need to go through the community process.

TC will set up an sub group to work on this, Peter Murray will lead the effort.

From Tod:

In the PC meeting yesterday, we heard that there is a need for more/better onboarding information for developers. There was a question/suggestion that maybe TC would be able to help with that, maybe identify some people who could help pull together some onboarding. Is that something we would want to take up?

Documentation and training for new developers, such as the FOLIO developers in China and Alabama. PC/CC may need to allocate resource to do this. Tod Olson will bring our discussion back to PC/CC. Radhakrishnan Gopalakrishnan will assess the current situation of technical documentation.
