WG recurring meetings: 1st & 3rd Wednesdays at 19:00 GMT

[lloydchang]

Do you agree with @JaimeMagiera's suggestion?

@JaimeMagiera suggests:

Would it be better to make GitOps Working Group meetings "every first and third Wednesday"? (or second and fourth)

[lloydchang]

From #wg-gitops Slack 🧵

@phillamb168 asked:

The working group meeting says 'every other wednesday' but doesn't say starting from when - is the next one next week, or the following week?

@JaimeMagiera suggests:

@christianh814 and @scottrigby suggest discussing in GitHub

@lloydchang replied:

With 20/20 hindsight, we can laugh at ourselves 🙂 For light-hearted humor… 😆

does someone want to put this on the agenda google doc for the next meeting?

Done. Asynchronously, I put this on the agenda for Nov 10, 2021 - WG Fortnightly via Suggesting access because I don't have Editing access at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hxifmCdOV5_FbKloDJRWZQHq0ge-trXJKF-BgV4wHVk/edit#heading=h.pauqxhcsoepf

@lloydchang would you please dm me the email address you use for Google docs? Will add you as an editor ✍️

[scottrigby]

Accepted in agenda 👍

I am +1 on this. My instinct is to have it the 1st and 3rd Wed of every month.

This, implicitly, means that we'll have less meetings. I'm not saying it's good or bad, but it's something to consider.

[JaimeMagiera]

Agree on 1st and 3rd.

[lloydchang]

Related, I suggested changes to meeting notes headers:

I am keen to join this on a regular basis but I am based in NZ.
Will make it work thanks @lloydchang

@chris-short asked:

should we have a doc for the places the meeting is listed?

No. This discussion web page is sufficient (instead of a doc), and here are 10 places that I am aware of where the meeting is listed:

1. https://www.cncf.io/calendar/
2. https://tockify.com/cncf.public.events/detail/376/1638385200000
3. https://tockify.com/cncf.public.events/detail/377/1639594800000
4. https://opengitops.dev/get-involved
5. https://github.com/cncf/tag-app-delivery/tree/main/gitops-wg#meetings
6. https://github.com/gitops-working-group/gitops-working-group#meetings
7. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hxifmCdOV5_FbKloDJRWZQHq0ge-trXJKF-BgV4wHVk/edit
8. WG recurring meetings: 1st & 3rd Wednesdays at 19:00 GMT #33

10. https://cloud-native.slack.com/archives/C01G9DEE88M/p1638384382231100

In the above:
• 2. and 3. tockify.com are embedded in 1. cncf.io
• 6. github.com/gitops-working-group will disappear after its content is merged into 5. github.com/tag-app-delivery/tree/main/gitops-wg
