## Nominated issues
### "Do not video/audio record council meetings" leadership-council#102
- **Link:** https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/pull/102
- **Labels:** T-leadership-council, proposed-final-comment-period, disposition-merge, I-council-nominated
TC: We have a proposed FCP for changing the policy to not record these meetings. I nominate this for our visibility and, addressing an outstanding concern, to confirm that we're comfortable with how we've stated our reasons for this change.
I'd expect this discussion to take 5 minutes.
### "Schedule time for project director elections 2024" leadership-council#101
- **Link:** https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/issues/101
- **Labels:** I-council-nominated
TC: We need to schedule a time to do our project director elections for 2024.
We'd like to have our directors seated by the meeting on 12 November, and we'd like to give any new directors a couple of weeks to be able to prepare and hit the ground running.
Some members of the council who would like to be part of this discussion will not be present for the meeting on the 2024-10-25, so we may want to pick a different time.
I'd expect this discussion to take 5 minutes.
### "Council budget planning 2024Q4" leadership-council#103
- **Link:** https://github.com/rust-lang/leadership-council/issues/103
- **Labels:** I-council-nominated
TC: Eric Holk notes that:
> The Leadership Council has a significant budget from the Foundation that we need to decide how to spend. The main open questions are around:
>
> * Petty cash
> * Swag
> * Compiler+project ops hire
And Eric Huss nominates for us:
> I'd like to discuss spending some of this year's reserved funding for project grants.
>
> Time: ~15 minutes
