Agenda:

  • Job channel
    • pennae: We want to do it mostly for employees than employers.
    • pennae: We should maybe make it the other way around and let people post they're looking for jobs.
    • kate: it would prove difficult for companies to actually operate with this due to the whole bias.
    • kate: having employers post ads as long as they behave in our code of conduct.
    • let's shelve this topic as there might not be enough demands to justify the costs of doing it right, at least, after lixcon.
    • @piegames own the fact of starting a draft on sponsorship policy.
  • Inactive core team members
    • Merge https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix-website/pulls/70 and https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix-website/pulls/69
    • Qyriad: what about the proposal for alumni/emeritus section?
    • Kate: thinks this would be good to be able to list historical core team members to permit core team members to use this for hiring decisions.
    • pennae: wouldn't archive.org satisfy this objective too?
    • Kate: a hiring manager would not bother with that.
    • No objection to merge these two PRs.
