Agenda:

GM Printer jonguan ASUC Elections Xavie SM Alumni EECS Disk Array Allocation

Opening:

Quorum not met!

GM:

Printer Printer is broken Fullmer did the paperwork mattfong: we have to schedule a pickup w/TSW

jkit: put the duplexer back in the printer so it will be fixed at the same
    time.  Get the iMac fixed too.

dima: the fuser's broken too

mattfong: we're not going to have enough money authorized to fix all
    that stuff, we'll need to reauthorize with a higher limit.

    After they do a diagnosis they'll call us with the cost?

A new printer costs ~$5000

jonguan For a job application, said he was OCF staff and did research for OCF from 2001 until now...and he has not. He did apply for sudo, but was denied.

jkit: why should we lie for this guy?
aoshi: just say he joined staff in 2001 and his list of accomplishments
    is ... (silence)

No one's seen him in forever.

dwc said he's approved more accounts than jhs

if he doesn't hold office hours, he's not technically on OCF staff.

ASUC Elections Morning hours: 5am until no later than 9am Afternoon hours: between 4-8pm? Angel never told Frank. Evening Hours: until ~11pm

Be reachable.  We'll probably end up sitting around ASUC.

SM:

Alumni.EECS Their mailserver went down, and we're supposedly their MX backup Backup mail--we only store it when they go down jjlin objects: it's a one way relationship, they don't back us up.
postmaster has to read all the spam we'll need a new postmaster. new postmaster should decide? CSUA will back us up, dima needs to talk to them. alumni already removed us they didn't know we were backing them up if we get CSUA do we need alumni.eeecs? as of now, it's a non-issue unless someone brings it up

Disk array

Mail spool's on disk array now.
    Dima + Akop did it

Keep mail separate
    Dima: 100 mb for mail

Who Decides?
    Aoshi: There's nothing in our official docs about who decides
        quotas. Up to SM discretion?

Merging
    Merge home and service?
    there were objections to combine mail and home
Current Situation:
    Currently users get 320mb total
    Right now:
        death is @ 172 gigs, using 60-something percent
        services @ 105 gigs, using 85%

What are good quota sizes?
    Maildir size:
        Current usage is 7%
        limit on mail to cut down spam?
        Dima suggests 100mb
        yury: crontab to kill spam?
    1 Gigabyte for each user?
        Aoshi: There's no technical argument against 1 gig
        Need?
            Mattfong: There's no practical reason for having a gig
            Dima: Groups need a gig
            Frank: Why does it matter why they need it?
        jkit: a gig with a disclaimer?
        1 gig soft, 1.1gig hard?
    Hozing?
        Raising space will lead to hozing?
        How hard is it to monitor hozing?
            vague mention of bandwidth logs
        Aoshi: if anybody hozes, squish them.
        Trust users vs. distrust users?
        You can lower users' quotas if they violate.
        If your over quota time expires you get sorried.
        bac: you don't have to police it yourself, but if someone
            asks you to take illegal content down you have to take
            it down

General agreement upon:
    1 gigabyte (done in base 2, so 1024 mb)
    Merge home and services
