## Actions/Decisions
ac2dcb
Decision: Board is OK with giving out some accounts to get things started right away for the Cloud SIG.
ac2dcb
Consensus is “sounds good” to do a CentOS partner-like summit.
ac2dcb
Action:  Board needs to generate list of 6 projects we want to work with by next meeting, so we can get this moving quickly.

## Notes:
ac2dcb
### Statement around provenance of source
ac2dcb
Some risk in how we state things, want to make sure we take the right angle so we are positioning the project correctly as “made of RHEL source but not closer to RHEL.”
ac2dcb
What is the problem we are trying to solve here? What audience do we want to address?
ac2dcb
Seems to be a social issue rather than a technical one - technical interaction is going well.
ac2dcb
SL leadership want statements about the provenance of the source, which is something we want to be careful about so we don’t bring up the lack of SRPMs.
ac2dcb
This could be something as straightforward as Karsten or Carl writing a wiki article (after we write it completely) as a statement ‘from RH’.
ac2dcb
### Cloud SIG
ac2dcb
Bootstrap with Euca & RDO, may not be clear if CloudStack has anything to do initially.
ac2dcb

ac2dcb
About a month until this is ready to raise to the Board.
ac2dcb
15 Sep is a bit tight to launch by.
ac2dcb
HSS has two Java developers who are working on setting up Jenkins for internal.
ac2dcb
KB to talk with them next week, see how we can work together.
ac2dcb
Lower barrier to entry, more willing to run CI that doesn’t get fixed for a long time, not sending a community message.
ac2dcb
Overlap in that they’ll do nightly, dailies, dev branches, where we might only pick up e.g. stable nightlies.
ac2dcb
