Hi, gibi: I'm very sorry for respone later. A meeting around 8:00 UTC seems very appropriate to us. It is afternoon work time in East Asian when 8:00 UTC. Now my colleague, have some work on Cyborg across with Nova, passthroug device, TPM and so on. If they can join the irc meeting talking with the community , it will be much helpful.
@Sam: We discussed your request yesterday[1] and it seems that the team is not objecting against a monthly office hour in #openstack-nova around UTC 8 or UTC 9. But we did not agreed which day we should have it so I set up a poll[2]. @Team: As we discussed yesterday I opened a poll to agree on the day of the week and the exact start time for the Asia friendly office hours slot. Please vote in the poll[2] before next Tuesday. Cheers, gibi [1] http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/nova/2021/nova.2021-05-25-16.00.log.... [2] https://doodle.com/poll/svrnmrtn6nnknzqp

Hi, Nova team：
Hi Sam!
There are many asian developers for Openstack community. I found the current IRC time of Nova is not friendly to them, especially to East Asian. If they can take part in the IRC meeting, the Nova may have more developers. Of cource, Central Europe and NA West Coast is firstly considerable. If the team could schedule the meeting once per month, time suitable for asians, more people would participate in the meeting discussion.
You have a point. In the past Nova had alternating meeting time slots one for EU+NA and one for the NA+Asia timezones. Our experience was that the NA+Asia meeting time slot was mostly lacking participants. So we merged the two slots. But I can imagine that the situation has changed since and there might be need for an alternating meeting again.
We can try what you suggest and do an Asia friendly meeting once a month. The next question is what time you would like to have that meeting. Or more specifically which part of the nova team you would like to meet more?
* Do a meeting around 8:00 UTC to meet Nova devs from the EU
* Do a meeting around 0:00 UTC to meet Nova devs from North America
If we go for the 0:00 UTC time slot then I need somebody to chair that meeting as I'm from the EU.
Alternatively to having a formal meeting I can offer to hold a free style office hour each Thursday 8:00 UTC in #openstack-nova. I made the same offer when we moved the nova meeting to be a non alternating one. But honestly I don't remember ever having discussion happening specifically due to that office hour in #openstack-nova.
Cheers, gibi
