Meeting Minutes
Annual Leadership Meeting
- Design-a-thon: Order Entry on 7 March
- Darius, Ben, Mike, Paul, Burke for design-a-thon
- Darius fly in Tuesday evening
- Topics: Code Bounties and policies around that
Organizing Features from Implementations
- We'll start fleshing out, categorizing, and prioritizing the features next Wednesday.
Code Bounties
- Paul sent out an email to the Foundations mailing list about code bounties in open source communities and the impact on volunteerism
- Paul will send shortened version to the leadership group
- Michael: The question to ask is if we want to be the management team for these transactions or not
- Organizations that have developers seconded to work on OpenMRS, we ask not to offer finances on tickets themselves or public forums. Yet, we can create a defined place to have that opportunity.
- Darius: What about a bulletin board?
- Paul: Might be better to have a neutral one that's not specifically related to OpenMRS
- Michael: We could have a link on OpenMRS that sends people to a different site for opportunities
- Darius: What about a bulletin board?
Seattle Discussion
- Andy: We have some scale-up projects that are possible using the mobile piece. Primarily Commcare and MOTECH.
- A nation-wide scale-up in Ethiopia could miss an OpenMRS integration unless we make that clear
- Andy will talk with Paul and Darius to find a way to compose a solution
- A technical meeting is also needed to define the gaps
- Some design time with Darius and Paul would be helpful to fill in these gaps
