**May 21, 2018**

All @PMC members were present.

- Mission and values - [https://github.com/opendatakit/governance](https://github.com/opendatakit/governance)
  - Officially adopted

- Website proposal - [Should renaming come before the website launch?](https://forum.getodk.org/t/13192)
  - Richard: Suggestion of launch on Friday, May 25, 2018.
  - Carl: Launch of Friday OK.
  - Waylon: I agree that sooner than June 15th, we have had a long process already seeking website feedback and don’t want to restart that. However, we should give a week (29th) so people can clarify any wording, help to decrease confusion, or bring up other concerns.
  - Yaw: OK with 29th.

- Naming
  - Yaw: Will start a thread for PMC to post suggestions to start.
  - Waylon: Suggest post a process to the forum, invite the community to give suggestions. One strawman of the process is to post a survey to gather suggestions, PMC consults with ODK 1 TSC and ODK 2 devs to produce a small list with a few options. Finally, post the remaining options for the community to chose.
  - Richard: Gather suggestions, PMC discusses, set of options go back out the community. Concern that discussion re: process prevents starting.
    - Propose separate thread

  - Waylon: Will post to start the process thread asking some questions and go from there.

- Next steps
  - Yaw: Post date on the forum. Same review and merge process as before.
    - If Yaw/Waylon don’t agree. Require tie-breaker from a member of the PMC.
    - Richard/Carl will be around for tie-breaking (hopefully not needed).

  - Waylon: Post starts the process thread. Will invite others.
