+
+- [@tisonkun](https://github.com/tisonkun/) about OpenDAL Community Growth
+- [@WenyXu](https://github.com/WenyXu/) for using OpenDAL in [GreptimeDB](https://github.com/GreptimeTeam/greptimedb)
+- [@wcy-fdu](https://github.com/wcy-fdu/) for using OpenDAL in [RisingWave](https://github.com/risingwavelabs/risingwave)
+- [@drmingdrmer](https://github.com/wcy-fdu/) for using OpenDAL in [OpenRaft](https://github.com/datafuselabs/openraft)
+- [@Xuanwo](https://github.com/Xuanwo/) about OpenDAL Core 1.0
+
+## Breakouts / Discussions
+
+The idea is that we will break into small groups for 3 x 20 minute sessions. I will ring a gong or something similar every 20 minutes and you should find a new group to discuss.
+
+Potential seed topics (but obviously feel free to discuss anything):
+
+- How do we make it easier for people to build systems on OpenDAL? What are the current barriers to community growth as you see them?
+- How do we make it easier for people to contribute back to OpenDAL? What are the current barriers to contribution
+- What features would you like to see / not see
+
+Ideally, in each session, one or more people would volunteer to write up any insights they got from the discussions, and post them to the overall ticket.
+

+
+Looking forward to meet you in this meetup!
