<br>
This week, during the weekly meeting, we seemed to reach consensus that<br>
we would try taking a break from meetings[0] and moving to orienting<br>
around using the mailing list[1] and our etherpad "whiteboard" [2].<br>
With this, we're going to want to re-evaluate in about a month.<br>
I suspect it would be a good time for us to have a "mid-cycle" style<br>
set of topical calls. I've gone ahead and created a poll to try and<br>
identify a couple days that might be ideal for contributors[3].<br>
<br>
But in the mean time, we want to ensure that we have some times for<br>
office hours. The suggestion was also made during this week's meeting<br>
that we may want to make the office hours window a little larger to<br>
enable more discussion.<br>
<br>
So when will we have office hours?<br>
----------------------------------<br>
<br>
Ideally we'll start with two time windows. One to provide coverage<br>
to US and Europe friendly time zones, and another for APAC contributors.<br>
<br>
* I think 2-4 PM UTC on Mondays would be ideal. This translates to<br>
7-9 AM US-Pacific or 10 AM to 12 PM US-Eastern.<br>
* We need to determine a time window that would be ideal for APAC<br>
contributors. I've created a poll to help facilitate discussion[4].<br>
<br>
So what is Office Hours?<br>
------------------------<br>
<br>
Office hours are a time window when we expect some contributors to be<br>
on IRC and able to partake in higher bandwidth discussions.<br>
These times are not absolute. They can change and evolve,<br>
and that is the most important thing for us to keep in mind.<br>
<br>

<br>
If there are any questions, Please let me know!<br>
Otherwise I'll send a summary email out on next Monday.<br>
<br>
