# 2023-02-13 Matt and Chris sync on EBP strategy while he's away

- German group was very confused about the many different kinds of myst
	- Which ones should they refer to etc? They don't know where to open it.
- Have three different github organizations.
- ANU money
	- Where to put ANU's money? It is "locked into ANU"
	- Aakash has JS skills but is not super reliable. Theme-related things are hard to push people on because Matt
	- Could we use it on UX / interviews / etc consultants?
	- They usually hire computer science students but could also try and hire a "Project" oriented organiser type if helpful (based at QE labs)
	- ACTION: @mmcky to estimate funds remaining and pitch some ideas for spending the ANU funds to maximise value to EBP.
	- ACTION: @mmcky to chat with Rowan about possible ways we could support mystjs development with ANU casuals etc. 

- Three main follow ups
	- Discuss the EB / Python / JS organizational split
	- How to define our values and behavioral expectations so that we police them
	- What to do with the ANU budget

- Things I suggested to mmcky
	- Work more with Rowan on the documentation side and the user experience side
	- EBP bot issue: [Document the EBP bot for publishing to PyPI · Issue #411 · executablebooks/meta · GitHub](https://github.com/executablebooks/meta/issues/411)
- Chris needs to
	- [ ] Flag a few issues for Matt M. to focus on.
	- [ ] Take another pass at the EB docs to make sure it's not too Python-specific.
- Matt needs to
    - [ ] organise an EBP documentation review to identify how EBP could more clearly identify the python and javascript stacks. 
    - [ ] See below re: EBP organisation (EBP bot etc.)

- Define some things Matt can help with on the EB project
	- Define some best-practices for administration, can Matt help lead this effort?
		- Get the EBP bot on all of our PyPI repositories. [Document the EBP bot for publishing to PyPI · Issue #411 · executablebooks/meta · GitHub](https://github.com/executablebooks/meta/issues/411)
		- Get admin access to the EBP bot to all of our steering council
	- Documenting things
	- Help rowan with `MyST.tools`
	- Help push forward specification discussions
	- Help put constraints on Chris S at least on the JS and spec side.
