Squeak Oversight Board minutes – 8/20/12

Attending: Chris Muller, Colin Putney, Chris Cunnington, Bert 
Freudenberg, Randal Schwartz

- details about Softlayer being Squeak's next host are being worked 
through, mostly by the lawyers on both sides (it's great to have the 
Software Freedom Conservancy look out after us)

- a review of the teams system is underway with an aim to update the 
teams, close mailing lists for discontinued teams: Release team (while 
there is a release manager we discuss releases on the main dev list, not 
a separate one), modules (should be discussed on squeak-dev, too), 
possibly the News team (which could be merged with the Web team), and 
invite new people

- documentation was discussed a good deal at this meeting: ideas about 
what to do with the Squeak wiki, whether to use a new wiki, putting 
documentation on websites, or having it in the image as comments or 
searchable text were explored

- Squeak By Example [1] was discussed as a good book that could be 
updated. As sources are on GitHub [2], forking them and updating them 
looks like a good idea, which would make contributing really easy

- Colin suggested hosting open Google+ hangouts for members of the 
community during the weeks the Squeak Oversight Board does not meet. 
Anybody could come, ask questions, share ideas, etc.
