+Video [Recording](https://youtu.be/W3cWHSrQnEQ)
+
+Meeting start: 11:02 a.m. EDT (UTC-4)
+
+#### Quick Recap
+The Podman Community Meeting covered updates and demos related to recent Podman releases and LFX internships. Paul demonstrated improvements in port forwarding for custom networks in Podman 6.1 RC1, showing how source IP addresses are now correctly preserved. The group discussed the upcoming final release of Podman 6.1, noting it mostly included bug fixes and a few new features. Tom and Ashley provided information about the LFX internships, emphasizing that prior contributions were not required for applicants and addressing questions about the application process, design portfolios, and cover letters. Several participants, including Kartik and Pratik, asked for clarification on internship expectations and project proposals. The conversation ended with a reminder for topic submissions for the next meeting and thanks to the presenters and attendees.
+
+#### Next Steps
+  * Tom: Review the number of applications received for the LFX internships.
+  * Kartik: Check the CNCF/monitoring repo issue for the broken text on the LFX portal and consider creating an issue or PR if not already done.
+  * All interested applicants: Apply for the LFX internships before the closing date of August 18th.
+  * All interested applicants: Prepare a design portfolio for the website UX project, including descriptions of contributions, and a cover letter outlining relevant experience and project approach.
+  * All interested applicants for the automation project: Consider including some code samples or contributions (personal, school, or open-source) in the application, though it is not strictly required.
+  * All attendees: Submit topics for the next Podman Community Meeting (October 6, 2026).
+
+### Topics
+#### Pasta Forwarding Demo - Paul Holzinger  ([01:29](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3cWHSrQnEQ&t=89s) in the video)
+
+Paul demonstrated new port forwarding functionality in Podman 6 and 6.1 that addresses a long-standing issue with incorrect source IP addresses in custom networks. The demonstration showed how the previous standard poster mode worked with default networks but failed with custom networks, causing remote connections to appear with incorrect IP addresses in web server logs. Paul explained that they added a new port forwarding mode in Podman 6.0 and made further improvements in 6.1, including support for IPv6 connections in dual-stack networks.
+
+Paul demonstrated new features in Podman 6.1 RC1, which was released on Friday. He explained that final releases typically occur in the second week of August, and the next RC is planned for next week unless major issues are reported. Paul noted that this release depends on a recent version of the pasta package and mentioned that there aren't many new features in this release due to the delayed Podman 6.0 release.
+
+#### Podman 6.1 RC1 update - Paul Holzinger, Tom Sweeney - ([08:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3cWHSrQnEQ&t=527s) in the video)
+
+Tom and Paul discussed the recent release, which focused mainly on bug fixes and included new features like Podman volume rename and Podman machine restart. It was released on Friday July 29, 2026.  They confirmed plans for the final release next week and the next major release, 6.2, in November. Tom also announced updates to the container tools, including new versions of Buildah (1.45) and Skopeo (1.24),
+
+#### LFX Internships for Podman - Ashley Cui, Paul Holzinger, Tom Sweeney - ([12:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3cWHSrQnEQ&t=759s) in the video)
+
+Two interns for September through November of 2026, applications close in a few weeks on August 18.

+ 
+##### Application Deadlines and Requirements:
+The team discussed application deadlines, with Kartik confirming the applications close on August 18th. Paul mentioned receiving many applications to review, noting that only one candidate can be selected. Kartik raised questions about the website UX project, including broken text on the LFX portal and requirements for the design portfolio and cover letter. Ashley clarified that the design portfolio should showcase separate work rather than the website itself, and should include descriptions of what was designed and contributed.
+
+##### Project Expectations and Contributions Discussion:
+The team discussed expectations for an upcoming project, with Tom suggesting that mentees should provide quick examples of their previous work, including school projects, work-related tasks, and personal projects, highlighting what they specifically contributed. Paul clarified that while pre-contribution to Podman is not required, having some previous contribution, such as open-source work or a GitHub presence, would be beneficial. 
+
+##### Internship Application Discussion:
+Kartik asked if he should include his implemented features in his cover letter, such as fixing RSS feeds and auto-detecting OS systems, and Tom advised that anything pertinent to the internship would be appropriate to include. Miloslav added that while they don't want the internship to begin before selecting a candidate, demonstrating competence is welcome. The conversation ended with Tom thanking participants and announcing the next meeting on October 6th.
+
+The next meeting is scheduled for October 6th, with hopes to have more demonstrations ready, particularly given that version 6.1 will be finalized by then.

+
+```
+10
+00:10:52.070 --> 00:10:58.269
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Thanks all for… Coming to the Podman Community Meeting, today is August 4th.
+
+11
+00:10:58.620 --> 00:11:00.210
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): 2026 film.
+
+12
+00:11:00.400 --> 00:11:12.729
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): We don't have a ton of topics for today… well, I should go through the welcoming first. So we meet on the first Tuesday of even number of months. Timing might be moved to make it friendlier for folks in Asia Pacific.
+
+13
+00:11:12.940 --> 00:11:19.489
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Topics are driven from prior meetings, or requests are made. This time, we didn't have a whole lot of topics, so it might be a shortish meeting, we'll see.
+
+14
+00:11:20.330 --> 00:11:28.629
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Discussions are accepted for Podman, Builder, Skopeo, or any other related container projects, or any of your projects that use any of those containers, tools.
+
+15
+00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:41.069
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And we have the meeting notes that I'll try to keep up with listed here, and they were in the meeting invite today as well. So if you see me writing down something, or if I ask you to add a link, if you could do so there, that would be great.
+
+16
+00:11:41.860 --> 00:11:46.650
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And today we have a demo from Paul, and I didn't put that into…
+
+17
+00:11:47.010 --> 00:11:51.509
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): The agenda here very well, and that's going to be a pasta forwarding demo.
+
+18
+00:11:51.640 --> 00:11:58.030
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And then we'll talk about what's happening with Podman 6.1RC1, And then the LFX internships.
+
+19
+00:11:58.700 --> 00:12:09.660
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And then, if you have any open questions, we'll have a section time for that as well. And then we… and then, yeah, I'm not speaking well at all today, I'm sorry.
+
+20
+00:12:09.920 --> 00:12:17.770
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Topics for our next meeting will be gratefully accepted at the end of the meeting, and our next meeting for that is October 6, 2026, and…
+
+21
+00:12:18.050 --> 00:12:23.250
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Then we'll wrap up, and with that, I'm going to stop sharing and hand it over to Paul.
+
+22
+00:12:27.790 --> 00:12:31.399
+Paul Holzinger: Okay, let me start sharing my screen.
+
+23
+00:12:40.580 --> 00:12:42.470
+Paul Holzinger: Okay, you should see something.
+
+24
+00:12:43.250 --> 00:12:44.839
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yep, looks good.
+
+25
+00:12:45.500 --> 00:12:54.440
+Paul Holzinger: Alright, so this was a demo about some work we wanted to do for a long time, but never really got to it around, and…
+
+26
+00:12:54.810 --> 00:12:59.400
+Paul Holzinger: Now, with port.6, we finally, managed to do that.
+
+27
+00:13:00.100 --> 00:13:08.060
+Paul Holzinger: And with 4.6.1, we also made some more improvements for that, so I just want to show what this is about. So this is for the…
+
+28
+00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:13.270
+Paul Holzinger: Pasta forwarding. So, in short, what it actually means for you is…
+
+29
+00:13:13.670 --> 00:13:22.900
+Paul Holzinger: you can keep the correct source IP, when forwarding on the rootless network. So with a custom network.
+
+30
+00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:31.210
+Paul Holzinger: There's a long open issue for many years, where basically all the remote connections appear.
+
+31
+00:13:31.590 --> 00:13:35.770
+Paul Holzinger: with an incorrect IP address, so if you look at web server locks, so…
+
+32
+00:13:36.890 --> 00:13:44.430
+Paul Holzinger: This, previously worked only with the normal default poster mode, so let me just show you.
+
+33
+00:13:44.580 --> 00:13:50.059
+Paul Holzinger: So if I start the basic NGINX, container here.
+
+34
+00:13:50.630 --> 00:14:01.519
+Paul Holzinger: And then, if you connect, so I… since, obviously, if I want to connect from another system, to show you the actual IP address. So the IP address here from that system.
+
+35
+00:14:01.760 --> 00:14:11.309
+Paul Holzinger: Now you see it, like, in the… 192, 168, 122, 100.
+
+36
+00:14:11.920 --> 00:14:18.759
+Paul Holzinger: So now if I, make a web request… And then we do…
+
+37
+00:14:25.450 --> 00:14:27.119
+Paul Holzinger: So, entry. Next.
+
+38
+00:14:28.410 --> 00:14:44.439
+Paul Holzinger: And you see the correct source IP address. So this is the standard pasta, which has been integrated sometime in port.4 or something, which, worked. But one… but the thing that didn't work was when using a custom network, so let's,
+
+39
+00:14:45.820 --> 00:14:49.769
+Paul Holzinger: Let's remove the container and basically…
+
+40
+00:14:49.880 --> 00:14:56.929
+Paul Holzinger: And the custom networks are quite common, because you need those to allow the inter-container communication.
+
+41
+00:14:57.380 --> 00:15:00.900
+Paul Holzinger: The direct one, so let's just call it Network 1.
+
+42
+00:15:01.710 --> 00:15:08.740
+Paul Holzinger: And then we use the same command again, and say… And that's fair.
+
+43
+00:15:09.270 --> 00:15:17.950
+Paul Holzinger: 1… So, now if I do this again… so we still get the website, client-side all fine.
+
+44
+00:15:18.870 --> 00:15:21.309
+Paul Holzinger: But if you pull the locks out now…
+
+45
+00:15:21.660 --> 00:15:27.549
+Paul Holzinger: You see a different IP address, which is not correct, and this is basically what the program is all about.
+
+46
+00:15:28.050 --> 00:15:32.669
+Paul Holzinger: And, yeah, one other thing to show, so if I do…
+
+47
+00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:39.680
+Paul Holzinger: a local IPv6 connection, so previously, that also works here fine.
+
+48
+00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:49.300
+Paul Holzinger: And… So now, what we did to fix this is we added a new port forwarding mode.
+
+49
+00:15:49.540 --> 00:15:58.769
+Paul Holzinger: That is currently opt-in, that is not the default, so there's one containers.conf switch. Rootersport forwarder equals pasta.
+
+50
+00:15:59.140 --> 00:16:01.650
+Paul Holzinger: So you just checked that in your file.
+
+51
+00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:11.020
+Paul Holzinger: And… now we do the same again, exact same Podman command, just as one config setting.
+
+52
+00:16:12.150 --> 00:16:16.009
+Paul Holzinger: And if I did it right, so the client worked.
+
+53
+00:16:16.420 --> 00:16:21.320
+Paul Holzinger: That's correct, locks off that container, and again, now we get the…
+
+54
+00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:24.679
+Paul Holzinger: Correct source IP, which is what we want.
+
+55
+00:16:25.190 --> 00:16:27.149
+Paul Holzinger: And now it's finally working.
+
+56
+00:16:27.750 --> 00:16:29.230
+Paul Holzinger: And…
+
+57
+00:16:29.690 --> 00:16:39.809
+Paul Holzinger: So that worked with Podman 6.0, but there were some problems. So, for example, now, there's some changes in behavior between these, port forwarding modes.
+
+58
+00:16:40.070 --> 00:16:44.780
+Paul Holzinger: So if I do the IPv6 now… That will fail.
+
+59
+00:16:45.020 --> 00:16:53.279
+Paul Holzinger: And that is, for a very obvious reason, if you've… Because… We inspect the network.
+
+60
+00:16:59.800 --> 00:17:03.730
+Paul Holzinger: So basically, the subnets…
+
+61
+00:17:03.950 --> 00:17:16.060
+Paul Holzinger: Well, we don't even have IPv6 on the network, so that shouldn't have worked to begin with, even in the old version, because the old version always truncated the IP information, or, like, basically lost it.
+
+62
+00:17:16.260 --> 00:17:22.769
+Paul Holzinger: And converted that always to IPv4, that's why it worked previously, but that is not how it's supposed to work.
+
+63
+00:17:23.890 --> 00:17:28.480
+Paul Holzinger: And so the new version does it right, so what that means is…
+
+64
+00:17:28.730 --> 00:17:32.000
+Paul Holzinger: Okay, move the container again, we can create…
+
+65
+00:17:32.540 --> 00:17:41.309
+Paul Holzinger: A network, a dual-stack network… So, IP… we have IPv6.
+
+66
+00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:44.709
+Paul Holzinger: I, let's just call it, V6.
+
+67
+00:17:46.690 --> 00:17:53.099
+Paul Holzinger: And then, again, let's start the container with the other network, with the tool stack.
+
+68
+00:17:53.460 --> 00:17:58.480
+Paul Holzinger: So now, from this VM, I only have IPv4 connection here, but… so this still works.
+
+69
+00:17:58.930 --> 00:18:04.770
+Paul Holzinger: And now if I use this, it also works, because I enabled IPv6 on the network.
+
+70
+00:18:05.670 --> 00:18:12.279
+Paul Holzinger: And this specifically here is, new with, podman 6.1.
+
+71
+00:18:13.510 --> 00:18:18.699
+Paul Holzinger: And let's just check the locks to be sure that we are not doing anything, wrong.
+
+72
+00:18:19.840 --> 00:18:24.350
+Paul Holzinger: So this, iPv4 remote is there.
+
+73
+00:18:24.690 --> 00:18:29.850
+Paul Holzinger: And the IPv6 remote address right now is, set to,
+
+74
+00:18:30.890 --> 00:18:33.870
+Paul Holzinger: Hard-coded one, if you connect from the host, because…
+
+75
+00:18:33.980 --> 00:18:42.400
+Paul Holzinger: One thing to keep in mind is that local host on the host is different than local host in the machine, so, like, obviously, if you…
+
+76
+00:18:42.510 --> 00:18:50.239
+Paul Holzinger: connect from the host into the container. It cannot show you that that connection as local host, because localhost and the container are something different.
+
+77
+00:18:51.150 --> 00:18:52.470
+Paul Holzinger: And…
+
+78
+00:18:53.110 --> 00:19:05.049
+Paul Holzinger: But if you… I don't have an IPv6 connection here right now to show that if I would use an external, like, public IPv6 connection, it would show the actual right IP address, so that also works.
+
+79
+00:19:05.910 --> 00:19:10.130
+Paul Holzinger: And this is basically… All of this is about.
+
+80
+00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:16.189
+Paul Holzinger: Yeah, a bit of an unscripted demo. I think I showed everything I wanted to show.
+
+81
+00:19:17.700 --> 00:19:24.799
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Considering that I bent around, like, 6 minutes ago, Paul, I think it was a great demo. Thank you for jumping in and hopping in and showing us that.
+
+82
+00:19:24.930 --> 00:19:28.040
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Does anybody have any questions for Paul about this?
+
+83
+00:19:35.590 --> 00:19:37.260
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Okay, not hearing a whole bunch.
+
+84
+00:19:37.550 --> 00:19:46.880
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Paul, I'm gonna put you under the… throw you under the bus a little bit, again, right here. We're talking about, Podman 6.1, we just released RC1.
+
+85
+00:19:47.100 --> 00:19:57.469
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And normally, Matt would be talking about this, and do you have any more details about when the next RC is coming out, when we're planning to do the final release, and what new goodies might be in there besides this?
+
+86
+00:20:00.420 --> 00:20:08.159
+Paul Holzinger: Sure. So, we released Podman 6.1 RC1 on Friday, I believe.
+
+87
+00:20:08.420 --> 00:20:09.080
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yes.
+
+88
+00:20:09.080 --> 00:20:10.270
+Paul Holzinger: And…
+
+89
+00:20:10.530 --> 00:20:19.559
+Paul Holzinger: So the RC ones that we are doing, we are doing them a couple of weeks before our final release date, which is usually second week.
+
+90
+00:20:19.900 --> 00:20:22.529
+Paul Holzinger: of August, or, like, every 3 months, it's…
+
+91
+00:20:23.610 --> 00:20:30.500
+Paul Holzinger: And… this time we were a bit slow, because we were rating for the work I was just demoing. That took some…
+
+92
+00:20:31.250 --> 00:20:37.299
+Paul Holzinger: time to lend, oh, one thing I should note there, this is also dependent on the…
+
+93
+00:20:37.500 --> 00:20:41.839
+Paul Holzinger: Pasta package, so you need a recent version of that as well, and…
+
+94
+00:20:42.060 --> 00:20:44.650
+Paul Holzinger: Such we all needed to align that.
+
+95
+00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:47.050
+Paul Holzinger: You're mister.
+
+96
+00:20:47.540 --> 00:20:52.120
+Paul Holzinger: we missed one week, or… the RC is one week late, basically, and…
+
+97
+00:20:52.490 --> 00:21:00.609
+Paul Holzinger: No, we are just aiming for the final next week, unless somebody reports major issues, it's basically the exact same.
+
+98
+00:21:01.210 --> 00:21:03.350
+Paul Holzinger: content as RC1.
+
+99
+00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:08.839
+Paul Holzinger: And… Yeah, I guess that should happen sometime,
+
+100
+00:21:09.320 --> 00:21:16.059
+Paul Holzinger: next week there. As for features, the one I demoed, of course, I think…
+
+101
+00:21:16.310 --> 00:21:19.919
+Paul Holzinger: Besides the rest, I haven't really looked at closely, it's not…
+
+102
+00:21:20.470 --> 00:21:28.719
+Paul Holzinger: Not a lot this time around, because the Podman 6.0 release was quite… Quite late.
+
+103
+00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:32.869
+Paul Holzinger: Compared to the… so we didn't have the full 3 months we usually do.
+
+104
+00:21:34.010 --> 00:21:38.649
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): I think it was mostly bug fixes this time around, and not a big chunk of them at that.
+
+105
+00:21:39.810 --> 00:21:51.580
+Paul Holzinger: Yeah, there's always… every release comes with a huge set of bug fixes, more or less, or, like, the minor releases anyway. The patch releases are, of course, a lot smaller.
+
+106
+00:21:54.120 --> 00:21:58.529
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): just looking We did, Podman… Podman volume rename.
+
+107
+00:21:58.850 --> 00:22:00.940
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And Podman machine restart have been added.
+
+108
+00:22:01.280 --> 00:22:03.750
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Some manifest push work as well.
+
+109
+00:22:04.040 --> 00:22:08.069
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And some QuadLit, units now supported new key image volumes.
+
+110
+00:22:08.910 --> 00:22:14.580
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Podman GenerateQ now includes support for generating container health checks.
+
+111
+00:22:16.140 --> 00:22:20.079
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): So a few, few nuggets in there, less than normal bugs. Throw the,
+
+112
+00:22:20.310 --> 00:22:23.000
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): release announcement note, I can find the chat.
+
+113
+00:22:25.760 --> 00:22:30.340
+Paul Holzinger: Yeah, so, I guess, final release next week.
+
+114
+00:22:30.980 --> 00:22:34.340
+Paul Holzinger: And then we are working towards,
+
+115
+00:22:34.460 --> 00:22:40.900
+Paul Holzinger: The normal schedule, hopefully, which means, 6.2 in… Malemba, I believe.
+
+116
+00:22:43.280 --> 00:22:46.080
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yeah, that's the plans, as far as I know it, right now.
+
+117
+00:22:48.500 --> 00:22:49.870
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Okay, thank you.
+
+118
+00:22:50.510 --> 00:22:52.269
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Any questions on any of this?
+
+119
+00:22:57.660 --> 00:23:09.779
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And then, also going along with it, we also have, new Buildah and new Skopeo, so Buildah is now at 145, 1.45, and Skopeo's now at 1.24, and there are a lot of changes to the storage image.
+
+120
+00:23:09.870 --> 00:23:18.229
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): and common libraries that all three of those depend upon, Podman Builder and Skopeo, so they all went out in tandem for this August release.
+
+121
+00:23:19.280 --> 00:23:22.019
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): I think that's about it for there. Any other questions?
+
+122
+00:23:27.020 --> 00:23:33.939
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Great, so the last thing I had on the agenda for today was the LFX internships, which we've gone ahead and posted.
+
+123
+00:23:34.260 --> 00:23:36.100
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Out on the,
+
+124
+00:23:36.920 --> 00:23:41.799
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): website at LFX. If you're interested in more information, I'll post it in the chat. It's also
+
+125
+00:23:42.330 --> 00:23:53.080
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): a variety of other places as well. I know that we've had a lot of interest and a lot of submissions already, and thanks for those, for both the Podman I.O. and also the CI flakes. I think,
+
+126
+00:23:53.290 --> 00:24:11.439
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): for those who have submitted and not getting a response very quickly, we're hoping that you can give us a little time, because it's been overwhelming, to say the least, for the number of fixed… number of PRs that are coming in, and at least for the Podman.io, which Ashley is leaning on. We generally get a couple of PRs every two months, and
+
+127
+00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:17.080
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): You know, coming in after a weekend and finding 20-something was a little… Intimidating, I would say.
+
+128
+00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:21.730
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Ashley or Paul or anybody else, do you have any further things to add about that?
+
+129
+00:24:25.810 --> 00:24:27.469
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): Yeah,
+
+130
+00:24:28.330 --> 00:24:52.470
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): your… I think both the applications are open, please apply on the LFX website. Note that, like, while we do welcome contributions, and we like seeing contributions, it is not a pre-requirement, so if you're panicking about getting something in before applying, you don't need to. We mostly look at your application, and while it's great to contribute,
+
+131
+00:24:52.470 --> 00:24:57.469
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): It's not the main focus of, How we select candidates.
+
+132
+00:25:02.790 --> 00:25:10.930
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yep, and so as far as I recall, I don't recall the date, actually. Is it August 29th? Or is it a little sooner that the closing for the applications is happening?
+
+133
+00:25:10.930 --> 00:25:16.480
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): I don't remember off the top of my head, but I think you have a few weeks.
+
+134
+00:25:16.840 --> 00:25:17.620
+Paul Holzinger: It's…
+
+135
+00:25:17.620 --> 00:25:19.140
+Kartik Yadav: It is on 18.
+
+136
+00:25:19.740 --> 00:25:21.250
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): 18th? Okay.
+
+137
+00:25:22.110 --> 00:25:23.010
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Thank you.
+
+138
+00:25:28.220 --> 00:25:31.769
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Okay, any questions or comments about that? Oh, go ahead, Paul.
+
+139
+00:25:32.120 --> 00:25:36.340
+Paul Holzinger: Yeah, have you looked at the application count, Tom, on yours?
+
+140
+00:25:38.870 --> 00:25:41.560
+Paul Holzinger: We, we got a lot, so we're gonna…
+
+141
+00:25:41.830 --> 00:25:43.789
+Paul Holzinger: Have a lot to choose from.
+
+142
+00:25:43.790 --> 00:25:45.159
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Oh, okay.
+
+143
+00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:49.140
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Now, I will have to go ahead and do that, then.
+
+144
+00:25:49.910 --> 00:25:55.909
+Paul Holzinger: Yeah, and I mean, sorry in advance, but in the end, it can only be won. Yeah.
+
+145
+00:25:56.120 --> 00:26:00.260
+Paul Holzinger: I know there will be many good applications,
+
+146
+00:26:03.130 --> 00:26:11.620
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yeah, I've honestly been very surprised and very happy to see all the applications that we have gotten so far, and then also the PR submissions as well.
+
+147
+00:26:17.670 --> 00:26:19.960
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Any other questions or comments on that?
+
+148
+00:26:24.460 --> 00:26:28.620
+Kartik Yadav: I actually do have some questions, if I'm…
+
+149
+00:26:28.910 --> 00:26:29.360
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Sure.
+
+150
+00:26:29.360 --> 00:26:30.759
+Kartik Yadav: I'm allowed to speak.
+
+151
+00:26:31.260 --> 00:26:34.960
+Kartik Yadav: It is regarding the website UX project.
+
+152
+00:26:35.430 --> 00:26:45.150
+Kartik Yadav: So, I was recently checking on the LFX portal, and I found that some of the text is broken on the portal.
+
+153
+00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:46.800
+Kartik Yadav: I mean, for the project.
+
+154
+00:26:47.150 --> 00:26:49.009
+Kartik Yadav: So maybe you can look into that.
+
+155
+00:26:49.930 --> 00:26:52.610
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Did you create an issue or a PR?
+
+156
+00:26:52.980 --> 00:27:00.629
+Kartik Yadav: No, I mean, I fomented it under the NCNCF slash monitoring repo within the issue.
+
+157
+00:27:00.930 --> 00:27:04.919
+Kartik Yadav: So yeah, you might check, I mean…
+
+158
+00:27:06.320 --> 00:27:09.740
+Kartik Yadav: Also, I had one more question, like…
+
+159
+00:27:09.800 --> 00:27:28.799
+Kartik Yadav: in the design portfolio, you… you are asking for means, do I have to paste just these screenshots, or do I also have to explain exactly, like, where I contributed within the design? And also, is it… should it be related to the projects which I have
+
+160
+00:27:28.800 --> 00:27:36.409
+Kartik Yadav: contributed to some other company on, like, my pet projects. And regarding the cover letter, I wanted to ask that
+
+161
+00:27:36.410 --> 00:27:51.229
+Kartik Yadav: means it is… is it advisable? Should I… it means add a working plan on how I plan to complete the project? I mean, I hope it doesn't count it… count something as something negative, right? Because
+
+162
+00:27:51.260 --> 00:27:53.949
+Kartik Yadav: I might add something, and you might…
+
+163
+00:27:54.440 --> 00:27:59.809
+Kartik Yadav: think that it's too much or something, so I wanted to ask all these questions.
+
+164
+00:28:01.650 --> 00:28:04.269
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Ashley, have you thought through this yet?
+
+165
+00:28:04.940 --> 00:28:29.360
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): I haven't thought much about the cover letter yet, but I know for the design portfolio, it doesn't have to do with any… like, you don't have to talk about, our website at all, like, I actually would prefer it if it's something that you design separate from the website, just, like, if it's just screenshots, great, if you could, describe, what exactly you did, what parts you touched, and, what
+
+166
+00:28:29.360 --> 00:28:50.009
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): parts you design, like, just a sentence or two saying, like, I designed this part, that would be great too. It could be, you know, from previous projects, it could be from school, it could be from anything. And, I think the biggest focus is that you've designed it, not just… you don't have to have implemented it. I think our focus here is, seeing, like.
+
+167
+00:28:50.270 --> 00:28:52.320
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): How you approach, design.
+
+168
+00:28:52.520 --> 00:28:56.150
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): As for a cover letter, I am not…
+
+169
+00:28:56.500 --> 00:29:04.040
+Ashley Cui (Red Hat LLC): entirely sure what we're looking for. I haven't thought about it yet, but Tom, if you have anything that you want to see out of it…
+
+170
+00:29:04.550 --> 00:29:23.339
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yeah, I think a lot of just, you know, real quick bursts of what you've done, where it's been done, you know, and again, doesn't matter if it's school projects, or work-related, or just, you know, fun and games, if you will, and what parts of it you, as Ashley was saying, as well, what parts you specifically added, and what
+
+171
+00:29:23.340 --> 00:29:25.740
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): things you did for it, and I think that'd be great.
+
+172
+00:29:29.560 --> 00:29:32.770
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): I hope we answered your question. It went on for a little bit, if not, you know…
+
+173
+00:29:33.080 --> 00:29:33.879
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Put us again.
+
+174
+00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:36.130
+Kartik Yadav: Yeah, thank you.
+
+175
+00:29:36.790 --> 00:29:37.330
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Okay.
+
+176
+00:29:38.140 --> 00:29:40.199
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Any other questions, comments on this?
+
+177
+00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:41.700
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): On my internship.
+
+178
+00:29:42.710 --> 00:29:45.749
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): We're excited to have some new folks come in and contribute with us.
+
+179
+00:29:49.630 --> 00:30:00.580
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): All right, given that, I will close that topic out, and we'll move on to the open forum questions, which is comments or questions for anything. Does anybody have any open topics or questions they'd like to ask?
+
+180
+00:30:04.610 --> 00:30:07.040
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And now we're thinking about that, I'll just…
+
+181
+00:30:07.170 --> 00:30:14.279
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): also put in a plug for topics… Oh, yep, I'm not sure who said something, but go ahead.
+
+182
+00:30:14.280 --> 00:30:17.959
+Pratik Patil: Oh, yes, I also headed out.
+
+183
+00:30:18.570 --> 00:30:19.870
+Pratik Patil: Captain Arun?
+
+184
+00:30:20.690 --> 00:30:21.520
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Sure.
+
+185
+00:30:22.090 --> 00:30:25.310
+Pratik Patil: It was about the second project.
+
+186
+00:30:25.770 --> 00:30:34.090
+Pratik Patil: It was about… Making automation regarding Yeah, lots… Family?
+
+187
+00:30:34.300 --> 00:30:37.330
+Pratik Patil: So, I had this same doubt.
+
+188
+00:30:37.800 --> 00:30:42.920
+Pratik Patil: Like, do I need to pre-contribute In the report.
+
+189
+00:30:43.250 --> 00:30:48.959
+Pratik Patil: Or should I just focus on implementation and the proposal part?
+
+190
+00:30:51.100 --> 00:30:58.960
+Pratik Patil: Like, what are the expectations of you as a mentor? Like, what would you like to see?
+
+191
+00:31:00.840 --> 00:31:06.270
+Paul Holzinger: You don't need to have a contribution, and Podman. I…
+
+192
+00:31:07.050 --> 00:31:15.429
+Paul Holzinger: Personally, I think it would be good if you have some contribution to show that can also be a personal project, just some, like, some…
+
+193
+00:31:15.820 --> 00:31:22.599
+Paul Holzinger: open source repositories, or something, or, like, a school project, or I don't know, some code, I guess.
+
+194
+00:31:22.900 --> 00:31:28.409
+Paul Holzinger: Can be anything, just something small, it's fine.
+
+195
+00:31:28.560 --> 00:31:39.519
+Paul Holzinger: If you have contributed some Podman PRs, that's… that's also fine. If you, like, if you have your GitHub name in the… in your resume, then I can… can look at that.
+
+196
+00:31:40.100 --> 00:31:53.530
+Paul Holzinger: And, yeah, besides, some… Some implementation ideas or, designs for the… For the project,
+
+197
+00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:57.270
+Paul Holzinger: That… that could help too, but that's… it's not required.
+
+198
+00:32:04.690 --> 00:32:05.480
+Pratik Patil: Okay.
+
+199
+00:32:06.050 --> 00:32:07.580
+Pratik Patil: Thank you, thank you both.
+
+200
+00:32:08.970 --> 00:32:12.239
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And Paul, you're one of the mentees for that section, correct?
+
+201
+00:32:14.020 --> 00:32:16.049
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yes. For the mentor, brother.
+
+202
+00:32:16.470 --> 00:32:18.669
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Help Roll reverse there.
+
+203
+00:32:18.810 --> 00:32:29.119
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Okay, great. So, just going forward a little bit, if you have topics for the next meeting, let me know at any point in time. If you have something you want to throw out now, great. And if…
+
+204
+00:32:29.280 --> 00:32:36.360
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Our next meeting, again, will be on October 6th. Hope to have a few more things to demo, especially now that 6-1 will be finalized by then.
+
+205
+00:32:36.820 --> 00:32:41.749
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): And one last call for any questions or comments. Otherwise, I think we will close this up.
+
+206
+00:32:43.020 --> 00:32:45.399
+Kartik Yadav: Actually, I had one more doubt.
+
+207
+00:32:45.470 --> 00:33:03.590
+Kartik Yadav: Sure. I hope I'm not consuming your time. So, I wanted to ask that I'm, means I… what I'm doing is I have created a means of feature branch, and whatever I think would be good for the project submission, like, is to effectively demonstrate, like, how
+
+208
+00:33:03.650 --> 00:33:17.760
+Kartik Yadav: I can… I will implement the project. For example, I have fixed some of the things in that branch, like fixing RSS feeds, and also, like, you mentioned, like, how to auto-detect the OS system so that user can directly download it.
+
+209
+00:33:17.760 --> 00:33:25.209
+Kartik Yadav: So I have implemented it in my branch, so is it advisable to add that within my cover letter?
+
+210
+00:33:25.460 --> 00:33:30.649
+Kartik Yadav: I mean, I hope that it wouldn't count as something, like, it would…
+
+211
+00:33:30.990 --> 00:33:35.410
+Kartik Yadav: effectively downgrade my husband's proposal, I mean, we're saving.
+
+212
+00:33:35.770 --> 00:33:43.129
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Yeah, I think anything that you feel is pertinent to the internship would be great in your cover letter and or resume.
+
+213
+00:33:44.840 --> 00:33:45.270
+Kartik Yadav: Thank you.
+
+214
+00:33:45.430 --> 00:33:46.669
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Something to chew on?
+
+215
+00:33:47.180 --> 00:33:48.849
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Sounds all very reasonable to me.
+
+216
+00:33:50.570 --> 00:33:58.049
+Miloslav Trmac (Red Hat LLC): I think maybe one way to think about this is that we don't want the internship to happen before actually selecting a candidate.
+
+217
+00:33:58.230 --> 00:34:04.030
+Miloslav Trmac (Red Hat LLC): We don't have… want to have 20 submissions instead of an internship.
+
+218
+00:34:04.250 --> 00:34:08.139
+Miloslav Trmac (Red Hat LLC): But, obviously, anything that shows your competence is always well.
+
+219
+00:34:09.600 --> 00:34:11.259
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Excellent point, Miloslav.
+
+220
+00:34:15.909 --> 00:34:28.580
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): Right, I'm not hearing a whole lot of other topics or anything, so with that, I'm going to thank Paul once again for letting me twist his arm, and Ashley for putting her on the spot as well during the meeting today, and for everybody who's been here and contributing.
+
+221
+00:34:28.699 --> 00:34:34.569
+Tom Sweeney (Red Hat LLC): We hope to see many of you here again on October 6th, in just a couple months.
+
