All:
There has been some discussion lately of dropping the weekly status/sync
meeting on Wednesdays in favor of a less formal set of IRC office hour
sessions.
The current suggestion is that these office hours will be held for set
half-hour periods, moderated by a rotation of community members.
Discussions should be open, answering all questions and discussing any
cross-team/community-wide issues as needed.
Tentatively, these would be held twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Probably one set for an optimal West Asia/Europe time slot, and another
more suited for North and South America. Ideally, a potential third
meeting time would help cover East Asia and Australia.
Thoughts on this are welcome... we would like to move forward with the
new format in May.
Peace,
Brian
