Hello,

There is a Technical Committee meeting scheduled for Saturday, May 12th, 2018, at 7:00 PM Central Time (May 13th, 2018, 12:00 AM UTC). We will be discussing requirements for the membership pane; requirements before switching to Pleroma from Mastodon; a means of sharing information publicly about meetings, minutes, and agenda items; and matters related to sharing scheduling information.

All members or prospective members are invited to attend the meeting on IRC.

Hello,

At tonight's meeting, we discussed hosting arrangements, scheduled TC meetings, made an emergency amendment to the bylaws, and proposed to schedule an EC meeting to discuss further Code of Conduct. A reminder has been sent out for the TC meeting.

The new Code of Conduct is available at http://interlinked.me/Bylaws.pdf ; the amendment was made to Article XIII Section 2, which was was amended to clarify discretion of penalties for violations.

Q3 and EC meeting dates TBD.

Hello,

This is a reminder about the Q2 FY2018 meeting this evening at 7:30 PM Central Time (12:30 AM UTC).

Current topics of discussion include hosting arrangements, retention of counsel, discussion of coordination platforms, and an amendment to the CoC and procedures manual relating to suicide threats.

Contact @luciferMysticus or lstarnes on IRC with further proposals.

All foundation members (or prospective members) are invited to attend on IRC at irc.interlinked.me #interlinked-foundation.

Hi, we have resolved the earlier certificate expiry issue (the reason for downtime yesterday and SSL errors across Interlinked Foundation stuff).

We messed up and forgot to renew. But we're good until 2020 now, when we will doubtless do this again :P. (Hopefully not)

Sorry for that!

It appears all weirdness with the instance has been resolved; we were having sidekiq crashes that we appear to have fixed.

Right now we are doing a media cleanup, status counter cache rebuild, and purging dead accounts.

We apologise for recent downtime; we have now upgraded to 2.3.1. There is no FTS enabled on this instance; we apologise, but we don't have the resources to run it, and the feature is very controversial.

We now have a Matrix server available for your enjoyment at matrix.interlinked.me.

The code for mst3k's changes is now available here: https://code.foxkit.us/interlinked/mst3k-mastodon/commits/master

Apologies for intermittency, we had some issues on the frontend HTTP server that have now been resolved.

Hopefully any issues that anyone has been having with mst3k should be fixed. OpenVSwitch had to be restarted.

We apologise for any shakiness with the migration — we're working out the kinks. Bear with us!

ATTENTION MST3K USERS:

We are now off of Scalingo and on our own infrastructure. We have also upgraded to 2.2.0 in the process.

Thank you for your patience!

Executive Committee meeting on IRC today at 8:45 PM Central Time to discuss the format and nature of our programs for 2018.
