Let me restate the question a bit as I think I'm hearing two different<br>
responses that may be getting conflated.<br>
<br>
Option 1: There's a single Ops Midcycle that shifts around and we<br>
look at ways to increase remote participation. (obviously this doesn't<br>
preclude other meetups)<br>
<br>
Option 2: There are multiple Ops Meetups around midcycle (presumably<br>
starting with North America, Asia, and Europe) and we look at ways of<br>
coordinationg those re reduce duplication of effort any synthesis of<br>
results.<br>
<br>
I was advocating option 1 mostly because I think synthesis of option 2<br>
is harder than stepping up preparation of etherpads before sessions<br>
and review of them afterward is which is motly the level of remote<br>
participation I'd envision in the first case (possibly also running<br>
some email threads on any reccommendations that come out and seem<br>
controvertial for any reason)<br>
<br>
So far though seems the tide is runiing toward option 2, multiple<br>
meet-ups. Though wee're still at a very small sample size.<br>
