The oldest issues were migrated last, which means they are now "on top" of the issue queue as the most-recently updated. - We need issue summary templates. Let’s make issues and add merge requests for templates that we need like the standard one and ones for a meeting. :four: :one: https://coder.ddev.com is maturing and will still be mostly aimed at mentoring situations. I'll be publishing more information about the details, but for mentoring: https://start.coder.ddev.com now supports contrib issues as well as core. Your feedback is welcome, https://github.com/ddev/coder-ddev We finally have authorization control. Previously, anybody with a GitHub account could create workspaces. Now, members of sponsor orgs at the $100/month+ level automatically have access, and other folks need to request access with an issue at https://github.com/coder-ddev-com/access-requests/issues - It would have been nice to keep this wide open, but of course the bitcoin miners and all their friends would have discovered it eventually. It's amazing that they didn't. For camps and DrupalCons, we can give an organizer privileges on that organization so they can add mentees and such quickly and easily (but they need github usernames) :four: :two: Matt Radcliffe did you manage to test anything at Midcamp? :five: That's it for now! Continue the conversation in the threads above or below and in issues. Remember to post in the meeting issue or in the roll call thread! And volunteer!!!! ```
