## Summary

## Items discussed

[[!format txt """
ITEM: gsoc
 * First evaluation period is on the 11th of June. Both students have been doing
   great.
 * Martin is waiting for students to write blogs posts so he can write an article
   about their work.
ACTIONS: Martin to remind students of their responsibility to blog about their
         work.
STATUS: Pending

ITEM: evoc
 * Rob updated SummerOfCode project page and pinged dcback about mesa build related
   projects.
 * Looks like projects not requiring particular HW are popular. The perception
   is that projects requiring HW poses a greater difficulty to students.
 * After talking about a potential HW sponsorship the conclusion is that it's
   not currently an issue. If it comes up we can look at it on case-by-case
   basis.
ACTIONS: Rob to follow up again about potential mesa build related projects
STATUS: Pending

ITEM: credential management
 * Bryce sent patch to handle credential management. The board agrees to move
   forward with his patch.
