The big topic today has been on the Ceph project Governance, especifically, Ceph Steering Committee (CSC) changes in the context of the ongoing Ceph Executive Council (CEC) renewal. Please check this email thread and this etherpad for more details.
Additionally:
We reviewed the new candidates proposed to the CSC (removals have been deferred),
Discussed about the CSC vs. CLT naming (decision to continue with CSC),
Proposed an alternating CSC/CLT meeting (+12h) to facilitate everyone around the Globe to join (e.g: APAC).
Proposed to limit the max number of CSC members (deferred).
The first ballot is now open and will run until next Monday.
