for the project. We've already taken one step to address this in proposing a specs process (<a href="https://review.openstack.org/#/c/336109/">https://review.openstack.org/#/c/336109/</a>). However, I'm thinking we could also use some higher-bandwidth communication.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

realizing some features that could help these users. I've been trying to make a point to get in contact with these downstreams and it's been pretty clear that just a small amount of communication between them and some folks who are more familiar with DIB goes
a long way. Maybe this could serve as a sort of open office hours for these downstreams to bring up potential issues / ask questions / etc?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="3" face="Times New Roman"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Something that might also work rather than decreasing frequency is making the meeting smaller than the standard hour (maybe just a 30 min max)? Obviously meeting times
are never a minimum though, so we could also just hope to regularly decide we are done early.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
