something we do anymore. Basically, you have to be subscribed to this
mailing list, and then, if you miss the time, fish through the logs here:
https://tools.wmflabs.org/meetbot/wikimedia-office/2014/ :-) Collective
responsibility requires collective action.
The logs definitely should end up on
mediawiki.org; I strongly agree that
relying on
tools.wmflabs.org is a bad idea. It looks like MeetBot is
already generating wiki output, so having a bot post to the wiki would
probably be a small task. I'd suggest filing a task.
For a record of meetings, it looks like we already have a decent on-wiki
index of past meetings and we can always iteratively improve that. No big
deal. (This is another area where MeetBot might be able to help.)
In addition to needing to be subscribed to this list in order to receive
announcements about upcoming meetings, you also have to remember to attend
the meeting during the day and you have to do so using IRC. I find setting
an alarm on my phone and using
webchat.freenode.net mitigate these
obstacles well enough for me. Is it perfect? No, but c'est la vie.
