22:00<Julian>freeside: ping
22:01<Julian>Where was freeside's calendar again?
22:02<Julian>If it's not supposed to be private, I guess I'm going to put a link to it up on the Council Thingy.
22:02<grumpy>http://ical.mac.com/WebObjects/iCal.woa/wa/default?d=1& u=mengwong&v=1&y=2004&m=11&n=fsConferences.ics
22:03<grumpy>I have it bookmarked under "Where in the world is Freeside San Diego"
22:03*grumpy leaves to see his kids for the evening
22:04<Julian>grumpy: Thanks for the link.
22:04<MarkK>good luck!
22:04<Julian>"good luck"?
22:04<csm-laptop>well if it matters cheerful carefree csm is in Columbia, Maryland this week
22:06<Julian>How secret is the HSARPA proposal supposed to be?
22:06<csm-laptop>he sent it private... is that enoug of a sign?
22:07<Julian>During the last council meeting, Meng said some things about it here (i.e. publicly) and I'm not sure how much of that may be repeated with a clear conscience.
22:07<MarkK>"good luck" to grumpy spending quality time with his kids. :)
22:07<MarkK>I think he was quite adamant about this being a secret
22:07<MarkK>and it needing to be
22:08<Julian>Usually, if something gets said on #spf-council, I take it as being public. But I'm trying to be cautious, so...
22:10<Julian>Well, I'll keep it terse for the meeting minutes.
23:49<MarkK>(just sent you guys some mail; spf-private could not do the verify, for some reason)
23:56<Julian>MarkK: Thanks for your latest message, I think it has some very valid points.
23:56<Julian>Why haven't _I_ thought of that?
23:57<MarkK>yeah, I should have thought of that earlier, too; but you know how it goes: busy, busy, busy...
23:59<MarkK>I mean, we're takking about BIG bucks here
23:59<Julian>And about democratic grey hats.
--- Wed Dec 15 00:00:29 UTC 2004 ---
00:00<Julian>Well, ok, I can deal with the latter.
00:00<MarkK>grey hats?
00:00<Julian>white hats, black hats, don't you know those?
00:01<MarkK>no, not really :)
00:01<Julian>Terms from the spam fighting world.
00:01<Julian>SpamCop = white hat, for instance.
00:01<Julian>Spammers and spam supporting ISPs = black hats.
00:01<MarkK>Ok, now I can place it
00:01<MarkK>thanks
00:02<Julian>Working for HSA is fine for me if it means fighting e-mail spam/forgery.
00:02<Julian>Working for them doesn't automatically imply selling one's soul. ;-)
00:03<MarkK>Nope; I just relized I never really thought about the actual consequences/liabiliuty issue beforehand; which I should have.
00:03<Julian>But you have a very good point when asking about "what sort of liability exists for us".
00:05<MarkK>Meng will know
00:15<freeside>mooo.
00:15*freeside makes something up
00:57<Julian>csm-laptop: When you suggested that a press release should be authored by the ED and the Chair, did you mean Chair or Secretary? I'm asking because the meeting agenda said "Executive Director / Secretary".
01:02<csm-laptop>Well... originally I had thought it should be the ED/Secretary but as I recall Meng suggested I do it or something anyway... I am more than willing to do it... I should probably have something drafted by end of day thursday unless someone wants to step up and beat me to it
01:03<csm-laptop>the key is getting it into the press but I think I can make this happpen through my company or through a few other means I have available
01:03<Julian>Ok.
01:03<freeside>purl, 12 * 14
01:04<Julian>I asked with regard to the meeting minutes which I'll post in about 2 minutes.
01:09<Julian>Alright, the meeting minutes got quite lengthy this time: http://spf.mehnle.net/Council_Meeting/2004-12-11
