2025-02-05, 13:00–17:00, Puppet 2 (B.1.011)
The OpenVox community fork of Puppet is making much rapid progress. But we still have a lot of details to work out. This session is a "breakout room" of sorts from the main Puppet room and we'll discuss:
- Project Governance, such as our decision making framework. Led by Garrett Honeycutt.
- Technical Steering; how we keep the project architecture aligned with our vision and specifications from the Standards Steering Committee. Let by Nick Burgan.
- Infrastructure plans, such as our GitHub organization, CI testing, package mirroring, etc. Led by Gene Liverman.
- Other topics as we have time, such as packaging details, a Windows installer, etc.

He is a long-distance runner but isn't interested in boasting about race times; he'd rather hear how your race went for you.
