Kubernetes as a Service, continued

  • BerkeleyTime reached out to the OCF, meeting this Friday
  • How did this go? (jaw)
    • Set up cluster

Opstaff Meeting

  • Lab Decal: we can indeed use ASUC funds for this
    • Megan suggested that we instead use the Creative Lab, since they're in house, it will be easier to install with competitive prices
      • Still waiting on that contact from Megan
  • Opstaff have been notified of the Blizzard event and are working on social media graphics for it
  • kdr asked if she needs to attend a BoD meeting just to give updates
    • Yes.
  • Some opstaffers are finishing up projects, and may need new tasks, any ideas?
    • People have just shifted to working on posters, which is fine, but for the people who don't wanna work on design, it'd be nice to have some stuff
    • One possibility is asking them to help out with inventory, but only the admin account works for the inventory tool
    • Create graphic assets for OCF services

Internal Comm

  • Alumni Resume Workshop
    • baisang and sahil agreed to help out
    • Have google forms been sent out yet?

Channel reorganization for official OCF comms?

  • Existing channel names can be unintuitive for a newcomer (#henlo, #rebuild)
  • Proposed staff channels:
    • experiments - (revival) suggest new projects

    • rename #rebuild to #tech/#infra? (controversial)
      • can also repurpose #rebuild to take on #experiments' role, create new channel for general technical disucssion
    • local - near the OCF, local discussion

  • New support channels
    • support - general tech support

      • Start with #support channel, announce
    • webhosting - web hosting support

    • mailhosting - mail hosting support

    • lab - in-lab comms (use channel to communicate lab ongoings)

  • Help Desk & Entry on website directed towards the channel
  • (other items here)
