[gentoo-soc] Gentoo Council App

[Joachim]

Hello,
I'm interested in creating Council web application.

I was reading log of the last council meeting and... if voting will be
held outside meetings maybe it's better to hold meeting on IRC. There
would be a bot that would log meeting ( and feed data about meeting to
web app). Web app would help with everything except meeting ( preparing
agenda, voting, preparing summaries, ...).

And now explaining with a little more detail.

1. Preparing agenda

Any developer could create a pending agenda item. Any developer may add
comments ( links, attachments, ...) and manage ( edit, remove...) stuff
[s]he added.

Council members may moderate discussion ( remove, make it council-only,
...). Council members may add created items to agenda for scheduled meeting.

After putting item on agenda it'd be possible to give some more info
about it ( voting possibilities, how long council wants to discuss it...).

Also there should be a list of regular agenda items ( decide when next
meeting will be held).

2. Meetings
If meetings were held on IRC channel bot would:
- Log meetings.
- Publish logs.

Also I think that it should be able to simply ( for members) tell bot
what happens ( eg. what topic is being discussed now). Then it'd be
possible to attach relevant part of logs to agenda items.

3. After meetings
App should:
- Publish ( raw) logs.
- Allow editing logs.
- Allow voting for specified time ( if developers decide that council
should vote after the meetings).
- After voting is finished prepare stub summary.

What do you think about it?

Have a good evening,
Joachim
