Generate CCG Minutes

Step 1: Create the date directory

Create the date directory inside the meetings repo:

  • If adding minutes for the main CCG meeting, create a directory named yyyy-mm-dd (eg. 2020-12-01)
  • If adding minutes for a task force, add a suitable suffix to the directory name. Current suffices include:
    • vc-education
    • vchttpapi
    • traceability

Examples:

  • For a main CCG meeting occuring on 2021-06-29: 2021-06-29
  • For a VC-EDU meeting occuring on 2021-06-28: 2021-06-28-vc-education

Step 2: Fetch and clean up the log file

Go to the scribe tool and enter the date of the meeting (see screenshot)

date chooser

Check the following:

  • Ensure there's a link to the agenda ("Agenda: ...")
  • Ensure the topics are labeled ("Topic: ...")
  • Ensure the scribe is identified ("Scribe: ...")
  • Other IRC commands that are helpful when cleaning up minutes: irc_ref.html
  • Look for any find/replace suggestions in irc.log and update them ("s/../..")
  • Ensure aliases have matches (see people.json file)
  • Download the IRC log by doing the following:
    • Select and copy (you can use the copy button in the interface) the IRC log text
    • Paste into a new file on your computer using any text editor (eg. Notepad, TextEdit, Sublime Text)
    • Save it with the filename irc.log in the directory created above

Step 3: Fetch and clean audio

Option 1: For the main meetings, use the "download audio" button (see above screenshot) and save in the directory created above as audio.ogg

Note: could also add a feature to scribe-tool to support download of audio for task force meetings. For now, use the command line option (option 2)

Option 2: For main and other task force meetings, use the command line: use the download-raw-minutes tool in the w3c-ccg/meetings repository

# To download the audio for 2020-09-29 weekly meeting into 2020-09-29
./download-raw-minutes -a 2020-09-29

# To download the audio for 2020-11-02 education meeting into 2020-11-02-vc-education
./download-raw-minutes -a -m education 2020-11-02

The audio.ogg file will be placed into the correct directory automatically.

Step 4: Create the group file

Create a text file in the created directory with the filename group.txt. The contents of this file tell the email-sending script what to put in the subject line when the minutes go out.

  • For the regular weekly CCG call, it should say simply Credentials CG.
  • For task force calls use the appropriate name. Currently used options include
    • CCG Verifiable Credentials for Education Task Force
    • Verifiable Credentials HTTP API
    • Traceability Vocabulary

The automatic email sending won't happen without this.

Step 5: Commit the files

You can also update the minutes; changes to irc.log will trigger the github action and refresh the html.

What it does:

  • Emails summary to ccg email group (BROKEN)
  • Tweets with the w3c_ccg account

Step 6: Send the Email (manual workaround)

Take the contents of the email.log file that was generated and send the email to [email protected]
