IPLD bi-weekly sync

[vmx]

As the IPLD Working Groups grew a bit (with temporary and permanent members), we could make a bi-weekly call to sync up. AFAIK the current members are based in CET and PST. So what I guess PST morning would be most convenient for most.

I'm probably the least busy person meeting wise, so everyone please speak up when you've time.

I am 100% on-board with this, but I'm also out the rest of this week and next week so I will probably miss the first one :)

💯 👍🏽

Also, ping folks from #484, namely @wanderer, @hermanjunge, @jonchoi, @dryajov, @magik6k and @b5

@vmx a good way to find a time for the call is just to set up a doodle and let people vote. Definitely give more weight for the folks that are actively working on the project (i.e. that have OKRs), but also try to maximize attendance.

[daviddias]

Potentially, you could just alternate with the libp2p biweekly that happens every other monday

[Stebalien]

Alternating works best for me.

[vmx]

Alternating with another meeting sounds great. So the current proposal is meeting every other Monday at 17:30 UTC.

[dryajov]

@vmx that works for me

[vmx]

OK, so the first call will be Monday 2018-11-12 at 18:30 UTC.

Should this be a public call? Please vote:

• Thumbs up: public
• Thumbs down: private

If you don't want to vote publicly, just drop me a message through other channels.

[Stebalien]

It should definitely be public. However, it doesn't necessarily need to be recorded or streamed.

[mikeal]

I'm a +1 for public and recorded. I've found the recordings quite useful in other WG calls.

[daviddias]

+1 to public and recorded as well, specially in such a time of refreshing the org, there is a lot of resync'ing to do within the team and the community that follows IPLD for a while :)

[lanzafame]

Australians appreciate working groups that record meetings between 2-9pm UTC ;)

[vmx]

May someone either add this new bi-weekly call the community calendar or give me permission to do so?

[daviddias]

@vmx invited you and @mikeal to be able to change and create events on that calendar.

[vmx]

I've added it to the community calendar. Though I didn't know which Zoom to use (I really don't have a clue how we use Zoom for community meetings :)

[daviddias]

@vmx There is this sweet tutorial at https://github.com/ipfs/pm/blob/master/HOST_A_CALL.md

[daviddias]

@vmx where will be the notes be taken?

[vmx]

Just for everyone's information. I'm taking care of that the call actually happens and has all the infrastructure setup to actually have this public recorded talk.

[vmx]

We now have:

• Time: Monday 18:30 UTC, bi-weekly, starting 2018-11-12
