The sub would have to surface? 12:21:53 Cant believe i thought that out.. 12:32:15 Node on a plane should work 12:33:24 And NFC monero is like a hiccup away imo 12:35:00 Wish i could do proxy vote for coordinator css proposal. 12:37:14 Just needs a wallet to recognize an NFC tap > launch into the send screen with the fields non-editable > show a confirm button and transmit to the netwirk 12:37:14 Harder 12:37:14 Show a transmit button and re-tap the NFC which would transmit the tx from your phone to the terminal and from the terminal to the node that the terminal is connected to 12:37:20 DanIsnotthemanBr: What to you mean by this 12:37:33 By "proxy vote" 12:37:55 I can down vote it for you dan, no problem 12:37:59 The meeting do you vote on the proposals? 12:38:09 Yes, youre free to join. 12:38:10 plowsof: No up 12:38:34 > <@plowsof:matrix.org> I can down vote it for you dan, no problem 12:38:34 * No up vote 12:38:39 I gotta go make 3 ALTs, brb 12:39:49 ofrnxmr[m]: I cant attend.

[[monero-bash v2.0.0]](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/333) 16:05:52 it was decided that this proposal wouldnt go to funding because there wasn't enough interest / doubts about it being useful enough. the request is to hold-off and keep this open. what do we think? leave it open? 16:06:34 yes, I'd like to focus on gupax for now but I still want to work on monero-bash afterwards if possible 16:07:14 I'm in favor if leaving open - or closing and reopening once gupax is completed 16:07:14 IMHO, leave it open, but make it so it doesn't appear on the Ideas page for now 16:07:30 I don't think anyone has something against letting it sit there for a bit 16:07:45 s/there for a bit/unmerged/ 16:07:57 s/there/unmerged/ 16:08:05 ok we can agree on this then ^ 16:08:14 ofrnxmr[m]: agreed! 16:09:18 lets talk about moneromoon again - note : i have not attempted to contact him personally about this meeting since the comment on his proposal idea 1 month ago. he has since been active on twitter/reddit account 16:09:23 b. [The-Monero-Moon-CCS-Proposal-August2022-John-Foss](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/336) 16:09:29 Rucknium: is there a way to hide it without deleting the proposal itself? 16:10:13 eudaimon36[m]: I agree with this 16:11:36 what shold we do with moon? hold off? talk about a decision yes/no? 16:11:40 Im against Moon's proposal. Requested view keys to see how much money he makes from donations on the site. I feel news outlets should be finding other sources if income post-startup. Moon seems to have unreported revenue steams. 16:11:40 Quality of the newsletter is mostly an aggregator. Not often if ever breaking news 16:11:46 hinto: I think so, but I don't remember how to 16:12:28 i'll make sure luigi knows we want to 'hide' it 16:12:43 Anyone else have input in moneromoon ? 16:12:43 Rates are extremely high for literally linking to observer in some cases 16:12:59 Yea, I lean that way as well 16:14:10 my main issue was the lack of proof reading - so if moon corrected the typos in his ccs proposal and said 'he would make sure to proof read / put more effort into it ' then i would reconsider (i just doubt that he can compete with monero observer in terms of literacy skills) 16:14:11 The fact that hebsays moon dies without ccs makes me feel like doesnt really care to try. 16:14:11 He buys twitter followers though, Lol. 🤔 16:14:54 Proof reading isnt necessary when youre just reading observer while you write your newsletter 16:14:59 i think we need to let him respond to everything and hold off? 16:15:19 Observer literally makes really high quality monthly roundups for everything that's going on 16:15:33 Can someone ping him 16:16:20 He didnt respond to my request for view keys on GitLab (twice) 16:16:25 So I'm not sure how useful a weekly newsletter that can't sustain itself is when we already have observer and the one by rotten 16:16:28 johnfoss68: johnfoss68 - i have not put any effort to make sure he was aware / here for this meeting (other than publicly posting this here/reddit) 16:17:05 Newsletter writer should kinda figure out when there's a community meeting 🤔 16:17:14 Hahahaha 16:17:30 They will find out after they read observer 16:17:30 is it fair for him to put out a statement first - and then we must decide Yes/No ? 16:17:36 Kek 16:17:59 plowsof: Give it a deadline of EOY 16:18:00 His statement was basically fund me or gbye moon. 16:18:15 EOD 16:18:16 Isn't the proposal itself his statement? 16:18:34 It really is isn't it 16:18:59 Id say close pending an update before EOD 16:19:17 hide it and wait for response? 16:19:20 No word from him, close it. Makes a good arguement we can push back to next meeting... ? 16:19:48 he could literally say ' im taking creative writing classes now and im going to proof read everything ' and i'd support 16:20:02 Like afganistan ccs, no interest from proposer 16:20:13 plowsof: He can open a new ccs when he can do journalism 16:20:49 his fans are not here at the moment but he has them, so we must give hima chance still 16:21:09 But thats my vote. 16:21:10 Close EOD 16:21:11 hide - final decision pending some kind of hail mary statement before EOY? 16:21:25 Im voting end of day 16:21:43 The newsletter is weekly. Not waiting months for a response 16:22:08 who wants to close it now? 16:22:25 close it 16:22:28 Me 16:22:53 i just think its a 'highly contested' proposal and we should give one more chance ( i vote to close it now though) 16:22:56 Might as well 16:23:13 I think allowing for a response before final decision is fair 16:23:30 i just know for a fact that he has supporters who are not here right now and we must be fair 16:24:02 hinto @hinto.janaiyo:matrix.org: are you ok with end of day? End of week? 16:24:02 I dont think waiting any longer makes sense. 16:24:25 Hey everyone - just a quick update on SolOptXMR: I'm pretty close to finishing Milestone 2, and mj has already completed most of his work for M3+M4 already, so after that it's pretty much just my part of M3+M4 left. Unfortunately there have been some delays on my part (had some personal stuff to deal with in the last few months), so I doubt that I'll be able to finish my part in time for the original deadline, but rest assured that I (we) intend to 16:24:25 complete the project in full 16:24:27 hiding it - requesting hail mary statement before EOY seems fair - imagine there where an equal amount of people calling for it to be funded right now - we must compromise 16:24:35 He's a journalist he should know about this conversation ASAP. Lol 16:24:59 thank you endor00 16:25:27 shall we touch on the next one 16:25:34 Thanks endor 👍 16:25:41 Wait 16:26:01 Consensus is close pending response by... end of week? 7 days from now 16:26:04 Or end of day? 16:26:49 i know atleast 3 people who would say put it to funding 16:27:20 4* if he lowers his rates 16:27:46 so i will do my best to contact him after this meeting 16:28:28 for sure hiding it though 16:28:46 Ok well seems meeting consensus is close. These other people need to come forward at some point 16:29:14 a week/month seems like a fair amount of time 16:29:54 hinto[m]: agreed 16:29:54 yes its a nice compromise 16:29:55 ready to move on? 16:29:57 I vote week 16:30:16 Yes 16:30:23 ill do my best in contacting him 16:30:24 c. [Forgotsudo monero marketplace](https://repo.getmonero.org/monero-project/ccs-proposals/-/merge_requests/340) 16:30:48 the last meeting we seemed to agree on letting them resubmit wiht only 1 milestone Web of trust 16:31:08 theyve commented on their proposal that theyre considering it, so i think we can agree to leave this up 16:31:53 ill follow up/contact them too 16:32:15 I missed last meeting so ill abstain 16:32:16 I initially voted against, but if splitting into other ccs, close 16:32:37 they have been thumbed down but there are several people who support the proposal fully too (for promoting circular economy and such) 16:32:51 Rebmsubmit the new ccs as a new proposal, no? 16:32:51 milestone 1 WoT only seems to be the path of least resistance (as we don;t know the team very well) 16:33:23 editing it would be fine 16:33:44 Leave it up 16:33:44 yes 16:34:02 I remember this one, I had an idea for a better oath forward - this was the one I messages you about that I forgot the name of 16:34:03 Next? 16:34:21 d.

Talented people are more likely to just not bother 16:40:19 its a new 'role' and we're getting 'plowsofs' other contribs. too (site ~ gui/cli/rpc testing / liaison to core and such) so needs opinions 16:41:19 the status of the proposal is : presented it to reddit asking 20 hours a week ~ got called a money grabbing scammer ~ rbrunner suggested to cut the effort in half and double the time frame which i have done 16:41:27 So this is more than ccs manager now? 16:41:56 fancy "Secretary" that generally helps core be more efficient? 16:42:01 It includes all things plowsof 16:42:25 Agreed, yes, change it to 3 months 16:42:45 Plowsof is my favorite secretary 16:42:54 yes (and also working on site / gui PRs) 16:43:19 its literally 'plowsof to exist' as normal 16:43:36 I’m in favor of changing it to 3 months 16:43:37 I spoke with selsta and selsta would like to see 3/69 as well with increased gui work 16:43:47 I said before i wouldn't comment bcs potential "conflict of interest" with magic but this is a different role now and i fully support it 16:44:27 except put more effort into the ccs process before / during / after - jberman suggests looking into getting 'hard problems' funded (for this i would need to work closely with MRL members) 16:44:38 +1 plowsof has already been doing this role for free for a while, I'm also in favor of increasing rate/shortening timespan 16:45:05 there's so much to do with the gui and a second person to help me with testing would be awesome 16:45:16 whatever changes are decided for the plowsof CCS, other than not supporting it, I support the CCS 16:45:28 the spirit of selsta has arrived \o/ 16:45:41 There are very few "the buck stops here" roles in Monero, which causes things to slip through cracks continuously. This CCS would close a lot of those cracks. 16:45:45 so 6 -> 3 months and increasing / restructuring hours? 16:45:48 Ok so that plowsof doesn't have to say it: change to 3 months and move forward to funding 16:46:04 Yes please 16:46:11 Move to funding 16:46:30 nioc: hi :P 16:46:30 yes 16:46:53 Selsta made it :D 16:46:56 ive included a untimely death clause - but i am in good health , do not worry 16:47:26 lol, Jesus... 16:47:37 what about timely death? 16:47:49 haha 16:47:55 till death do us part 16:48:39 Just over 10 mins left.

It's not for production use. There are possibly bugs and poor error handling. But we will rewrite it. 17:39:40 just for testing 17:39:58 would support a CCS for full development though 17:40:09 I hate having to unblock JS for payments 17:40:09 Glad to hear that 17:42:27 We use Refresh HTTP headers as of now, but you can also achieve an auto refresh with meta tags 17:43:16 I guess people who require JS for payment processors spent exactly 0 hours reading HTTP/HTML standards 17:44:03 We will in the future support turning this feature off so the merchant can choose to support JS themselves and refresh using JS 17:44:14 But by default it's no JS 17:55:19 I may or may not have known a refresh header existed but very cool 22:23:06 curious does the the meeting minutes get recorded so if someone later wants to see what was said or brung up? 22:24:48 yes, we always upload the logs on the /meta repository (usually in the 'closed' area) https://github.com/monero-project/meta/issues/742 22:25:15 issues* (closed / open)
