### Agenda

- Creative Freedom Inktober
    - From chat: I also had a follow up thought about inktober that we can discuss next week- what if we use the generic inktober prompts that get released and mostly focus on getting folks to tag their art with #creativefreedom and #freesoftware and whatever tool they're using like #inkscape or #krita for example... that way it exemplifies that you can create "regular" art with free software the same as you would with the adobe suite or whatever else
        - lower barrier to entry
        - up side is it saves us from coming up with our own list 
        - the down side is this means we would need to create things in October and not in advance
        - the main effort would be making art, and promoting the use of the hashtags
        - Discussion:
            - People like the idea of limiting our work and using the general list
            - Madeline points out that Inktober has copyrighted the "Inktober" name
            - Emma points out that this is against the idea of free licensing
            - idea for the hashtag #freetober
            - Nikita points out that we could also show off process ([record in Krita](https://docs.krita.org/en/reference_manual/dockers/recorder_docker.html)) to help people learn to use free software
        - Next step for prompt list:
            - Take prompts that have been voted on and add them to the "official" ask for review in chat
            - Aim to post prompts and promotions first week of september
    - Logo idea came up
        - Use the summit branding
            - Take one of the characters and redraw it in an inky style & pair it with "freetober"
            - Nikita to work on this
    -  Communications
        - Inktober HackMD for ideas/guidelines: https://hackmd.io/xqW0HOm_S_CG0XqVjK9tPA?edit
            - Marie to finish that up
        - Inktober communications plan: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1q23MBnlbSsVihu2_VjSjo_S5TjFn-d833wNTs0P1-3A/edit#gid=1981626659&range=A1
            - Tweets/mastodon posts
            - Emma to work on that
            - What should the cadence be?
                - Madeline says daily might be nice
                - Marie points out that is a lot of effort
                - Social post for:
                    - when the blog post goes live
                    - a couple days before freetober starts
                    - the day it starts
                    - weekly until it ends
                    - fedora mastodon/twitter - when the blog post goes live
                    - fedora mastodon/twitter - halfway through freetober

                - Add in text & logo (can copy from Madelines design)
                - Move the buildings down a bit, center the spotlight in the composition,

        - Once the videos are done being edited, I'd like to upload to the Fedora Youtube as a playlist for additional visibility and Fedora YT followers
        - Promo video to go on Red Hat platforms
    - Social Media Promotion
        - We want to wait until the videos are done being edited but ideas here are:
            - Promoting individual session recordings? One general promotion? 
                - One post with the whole playlist, not sure about doing individual posts for each session
                - Could promote videos by day or by program
                - Angle: Good to promote the most up to date tips and tricks
            - I think pointing to Peertube is nicer than Youtube
    - Community Blog post
        - linking to videos
        - providing some basic stats
        - quote some of the feedback in the channel?
        - talk about our platform setup
        - plans for the upcoming year/next event
        - link to Mo's post
        - Promote these posts once published

- Observations
    - What went well?
        - The chat was really nice and interactive- we should try to keep this spirit going for next year
            - lets be selective if we do a cfp
            - mix up the program, what do we want this to look like?
        - Things were cordial, no CoC issues, friendly & light
        - 
    - What could be improved?
        - An intro / orientation video explaining platform with demo of how it should look (Aleksandra's idea)
        - Would we want to look at different platform solutions?
            - Joseph brings up oncast, could make it more approachable
            - Could we make this more approachable
        - 
    - Here's our general feedback and questions doc:
        - https://hackmd.io/N_j36bIpSLCPXpYyXEb8MQ?edit
        - Needs some light editing but do we want to add the Q&A to the peertube/YT descriptions?

- FOSDEM Presentation
    - What info do we want to include
        - meet next monday at the same time to do a practice session 

- What's next?
    - Some people in the chat mentioned doing socials, art challenges, or interim demos/mini events- do we want to do something like that?
        - Martin is really good at that sort of thing- runs an Inkscape splash screen contest. 
        - Time something in for Fedora 39 wallpaper related
        - Time something around virtual Release Parties?
        - Invite two artists create, competition? 
            - using the same tool, and swap files 
        - Pair creation (like pair coding) sessions 
            - Could do it with the wallpaper
            - Could do it with illustration or different tools
            - Could just be showing someone make art 
        - First one could be at the beginning of April
    - I think it would be cool to present at the next Release Party about how it went (we can adapt the FOSDEM preso for this)
    - When to kick off for next year
        - We started meeting/planning for the 2023 event in October of 2022. 
            - start end of august/beginning of september
        - If we want to do a CfP I think we might want to start a bit earlier
        - I think we should have a CfP *and* invite some folks to join 
            -

        - Try moving the heads around to make the marker feel less stubby
        - Play with the sizing of the words to fit in with the graphic objects
        - could also do a diff type treatment on the freedom, eg if you do a tilt on 'freedom' it emphases the freedom bit (which is what makes our event different) and kind fo feels like  a flag flyin
        - also feelng maybe trying faces on the characters... even if just small eyes to suggest
        - Could try "hats" 
        - https://escuelastem.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/CoLab1024-1024x504.jpg

        - The wings could be reminiscient of vectors, or wireframes
        - Utensils concept
            - brush could be curvier 
            - is "summit" utensil smaller
            - tangent of brush touching isn't a great feel, separate that
            - i wonder about square usage... like for the peertube channel avatar, would it read well or would we have a different version that could work square (maybe shorter tools with no text?)
                - make stubbier short versions 
                - initials (CrFrSu)
                - out of the end of each tool, add lines coming out and create some shape (could be translated to slides/webpage/peertube banner as a design element)
            - i love how it feels like moving up / progressing... like the outreachy logo :) also reminds me of the LGM logo, it's always had three squares in a similar kind of step pattern
 

- Review platform email from Mo
    - Comments? Questions?
    - Peertube is really excited and on board!
        - Might want to have a plan B just in case?
        - Plan B: Just stream live to youtube through Jitsi would be plan B
            - Would it make sense to Fedora YouTube (yes!)
        - Plan C: google meet with OBS stream? bluejeans? discord? 
        - Plan Z: Hopin
    - Element 
        - They are gonna give Mo some best practices stuff

### Agenda

- Format logistics (LinuxRocks PeerTube)
    - Can we monitor how many people are watching the stream?
        - Yes! Not who they are, but how many, yes. It has a comment feature, not chat. Shows how long people watch, some other stats
    - Is there a permanent address for the stream or is it unique for the stream once it starts?
        - There are options. We should send people to the channel, not a stream URL.
    - Should we allow "attendees" to be a part of the Jitsi session?
        - No, this should just be for speakers/hosts.
    - Should we train another person on how to do this so it isn't reliant on Mo
        - Madeline knows how to do, Mo can also train someone else. 
    - To DO:
        - Start a new channel for Creative Freedom Summit (Mo)

- Schedule
    - Next step is to draft a schedule and send to speakers for confirmation of availability (Marie volunteers to do this!)
        - Should we keep it to 3 days or stretch it out over 4?
        - 3 days it is!

- Sustain OS Design Podcast episode

    - 

- Promotion
    - Spreadsheet needs more love. Any more communities, contacts, etc
