As discussed in meeting we have enough budget for this.
+1 from me to move forward.

Subject: Re: [SAC] [MOTION] Grant sysadmin contract to Martin Spott
I'd like to put this vote on hold for a day or two until I can get a report from the Treasurer making sure we actually have the amount for this within our current budget. Hopefully I'll have those numbers before the meeting tomorrow.
More responses below...inline.

I'm in favor of the proposal. However we only have 11 tickets marked
higher than "normal", (not all are actually that hard of tasks). So I
think we need to clarify the main topics of interest, SSL and LDAP
seem to be 2 of the bigs things, followed by system configuration
issues like download disk space, retiring osgeo4, containers or
virtualization on osgeo6.
My idea is we'd all help setting those priorities in tickets, Martin
included (he would file tickets for proposals).
For sure SSL is a fundamental topic (it's preventing people from using
the services).
Sounds like an agenda/task item for the meeting is to get more people to go through tickets, and see if we can resolve and correctly mark priority.
We should also clarify if we want the hours to go as fast as possible
or have some expectation of a time window under which it will be
done.
I would expect between 1 and 2 months of elapsed time to complete the
hours.
Ok, I'd like the contract to be flexible so I suggest we put a deadline of spending the hours within 2 months. Looks like your previous contract only had it at 1 month.
Also should time spent on normal management and monitoring be
excluded, system updates, backups etc?
I don't think so, why should them ? If any volunteer is already doing
this it can be announced on this list so the task is taken off
Martin's plate.
I was thinking of tasks Martin currently does under volunteered hours.
Thanks,
Alex

This is an official motion to grant a contract for 50 hours of
sysadmin work on OSGeo machines to Martin Spott (via his employer)
for a total of 5000 EUR.
The work will consist in going through trac tickets in priority
order and close as many as possible while documenting proceedings
and suggesting more actions as they are found useful.
Will start with my +1
