Discussions

- With NZ conf organising committee to progress - need to take ownership swiftly to stay ahead of budget timeline
Candidate election - NZ seat
- Nominations opened, closing 21 June

Speaker selection proposal
- A proposal was received that DS might crowdsource topics of interest to community, then assign topics to speakers
- Interesting proposal but similar has been tried in the past and wasn't successful - insufficient engagement
- This is something the community can self-organise if it wishes
- Agreed this was not a task for the DS steering committee
- Consider implementing via eg Melbourne meetup?
