Brian, Thanks for putting this together and for the summary. Look forward to seeing you all later this month. :-) Jay On 7/10/2020 11:11 AM, Brian Rosmaita wrote:

For those who didn't see the poll, this is what it was about:
We're considering holding the Cinder weekly meeting as a video conference once each month. It will be the last meeting of each month and will take place at the regularly scheduled meeting time (1400 UTC for 60 minutes).
Video Meeting Rules: * Everyone will keep IRC open during the meeting. * We'll take notes in IRC to leave a record similar to what we have for our regular IRC meetings. * Some people are more comfortable communicating in written English. So at any point, any attendee may request that the discussion of the current topic be conducted entirely in IRC.
The results: Do it? - 50% in favor, 33% in strong favor, 17% don't care, no one opposed. Record? - 50% yes, 50% don't care Conferencing software? - Bluejeans: first choice of 70% of respondents Comments - Let's work hard to write what we speak! - people who don't want to be recorded can turn their camera off - video conference plus IRC is for sure better than IRC only - Zoom is shady and possibly not appropriate for an open source project that wants to welcome contributors from all countries. I think we're better off avoiding it.
Conclusion: We'll hold the Cinder weekly meeting for 29 July in BlueJeans *and* IRC following the ground rules laid out above, and continue doing the same for the last meeting of each month through the end of the Victoria cycle. The meetings will be recorded.
