What remains critical to me is: - wherever you run the meeting, make it publicly reachable, accessible, visible. - if you run the meeting outside of IRC, take and share notes on public channels. In general: decisions shouldn't not be taken during meetings, but rather on Gerrit or Mailing-lists. Otherwise you're fragmenting the community between those who can attend the meeting and those who can't. My 2 cents, -- Emilien Macchi
