[Standards] highlights and doodle (still not frozen)

[Piotr Banski]

Dear all,

I'm tempted to give the current poll one more day -- I should have sent 
a reminder early on Wednesday but I spent nearly the entire day at a 
conference and then trying to catch up with stuff, and failing.

https://doodle.com/poll/ebidkknp4yk9etg2

At this point, the winner is Wednesday, the 9th of December, 11 am - 12 
pm, with 5 voters. If that is not optimal to you, please take action, 
and I'll do my best to announce the final date towards today's evening. 
At which point I will post the next doodle, for January.

What we're planning for the December meeting is a short roundup of our 
tasks, whether ongoing or done, and some of these tasks I have made a 
bit more explicit in the spreadsheet, and some others dearly await a 
helping hand...

But before I name the names and call for help more explicitly, let me 
offer a brief summary of the highlights of the past meeting.

1. Timing of the deliverable currently on our workbench:

* starting in late January 2021,
* working releases every three months, with a flashy release every CAC

2. Working toward the deliverable

* the spreadsheet got enhanced with extra info, a.o. on who is 
responsible for which part (across the certified centres only)
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MEK-RAqK3eCXb6g8pztB1WI7atzbp3KUZ455izdSJj4/edit
* I have added myself, but also -- without asking the members in 
question, but (a) you knew it was coming and (b) you know that this is a 
suggestion/request rather than obligation -- Charly (KM), Tomaž (TE), 
Jussi (JP) and Fahad (FK); I've also added Dieter (DVU), in places where 
Dieter earlier added himself in a comment.
* given that Francesca needs to step down as a representative of France 
and given that Christian needs to concentrate on other tasks for a 
while, their columns are up for the taking. As are those without any 
initials -- please feel very welcome to add yourself/ves

3. We need more active members
* but with an explicit warning that we are a task-forcey-like committee, 
where hands need to get dirty from time to time
* as 'advertised' in our presentation space at clarin.eu (Jan and me 
will take care of the first suggestion)
* ... so we'll postpone the recruitment till after January 2021, to 
actually have something concrete to point at;
* before then, I was tasked with making sure that all our current 
members still intend to be on the committee.

For more details, please turn to the minutes -- which we owe to Hanna 
(and thank you so much for your work on this, Hanna!):

And despite the verbosity of this message, please keep in mind what it 
started with: the current poll :-)

Thanks and best regards,

    Piotr
