 I'm happy to try and join. I've considered having VC-available "office
 hours" that people could use to get help on patches, debugging,
 whatever. If there's interest in that I can try and pick a time.

Great, glad there's interest.

How would Thursday at 10am PST / 1pm EST  / 6pm UTC work? This is
early enough for London to join, but not too early that California
won't. Friday mornings are less desirable (because that's Friday
evening in London) but Monday and Tuesday morning could work as well.

+1. Individual office hours are a great idea in their own right.

Sure, I'll start a wiki page so it could be sent to non-list-readers.

 One thing that was suggested in the last group get-together was to 
 establish a regular time for community members to “hang out” on VC if 
 they're available, and discuss any technical topics or proposals that come 
 up. The goal is for this to be informal, replicating the sprint atmosphere 
 as much as possible, so there'd be no need for a strict agenda (though we 
 could create one if there's sufficient demand for topics). If nobody ends 
 up wanting to talk about anything (a remote scenario, perhaps :) we can 
 always end early.

 These video chat sessions should hopefully fill a niche that's poorly 
 satisfied by IRC or e-mail today: discussing topics in-depth at high 
 bandwidth before patches hit the mailing list.

 Does this sound like something people would want to participate in? If so, 
 we should hash out a good time (spitballing: Friday mornings? One problem

this has worked pretty well. It'd be great to do even more here.

One thing that was suggested in the last group get-together was to establish a 
regular time for community members to “hang out” on VC if they're available, 
and discuss any technical topics or proposals that come up. The goal is for 
this to be informal, replicating the sprint atmosphere as much as possible, so 
there'd be no need for a strict agenda (though we could create one if there's 
sufficient demand for topics). If nobody ends up wanting to talk about anything 
(a remote scenario, perhaps :) we can always end early.

These video chat sessions should hopefully fill a niche that's poorly satisfied 
by IRC or e-mail today: discussing topics in-depth at high bandwidth before 
patches hit the mailing list.

Does this sound like something people would want to participate in? If so, we should hash out a good 
time (spitballing: Friday mornings? One problem is between US, Europe, and Japan, you can only ever 
pick satisfactory times for two of the three), frequency (fortnightly?), and videochat platform (Augie 
and I have used

  before and it seems to work well).


I'm happy to try and join. I've considered having VC-available "office
hours" that people could use to get help on patches, debugging,
whatever. If there's interest in that I can try and pick a time.

Also happy to just casually hang out on VC once every couple of weeks.


I'm all for it.  I think it would help keep things unblocked and the 
sprint discussions tend to motivate people so perhaps regular 
discussions would help keep the motivation flowing.


We have plenty of topics going around these days:

- phabricator
- sparse
- obsstore
- upstreaming other extensions

to name a few

Feel free to think there were no Japan. VC wouldn't work for me (and maybe
Foozy?) on weekdays.

It'll be great if someone takes notes and send them to the list.
