[cosmos-dev] Proposal: swap Architecture Call and Community Call meetings
|
As you all know, we currently have the
architecture call scheduled for Wednesdays at 10AM and the community call
for Thursdays at 10AM. On today's arch. call, I inadvertently brought
up status issues that were best suited for the community call. But
it is also easy to see why this could happen. On Wednesdays, that
is our first opportunity in 6 days to get together as a community, and
also the first following the weekly integration build. It is natural
to have a backlog of status and procedural topics that require immediate
attention. Given that it's also natural to discuss what we've done
before we discuss what we're going to do, I think it would be more efficient
and logical to have the community calls on Wednesdays and the architecture
calls on Thursdays.
Architecture calls are often concerning
long-term technical issues in thinking ahead, often to the next iteration.
Community calls typically are discussing short-term or immediate
concerns. For this reason, I don't think we risk the opposite problem
of architecture topics creeping into the community calls if they were held
on Wednesdays.
Of course the one thing this might cause
a problem for is if the DC/DV teams couldn't also move their meetings to
Thursdays, since the Wednesday meeting block is currently 2 hours. But
I don't see why we couldn't continue having DC/DV topics at 11am on Wednesdays,
and architecture calls on Thursdays would be blocked off for 1 hour.
I know we've moved things around quite
a bit in the past. But given our new weekly process with the timing
of integration builds, and just the general sequential flow of how we work,
making the change seems to make a lot of sense.
To summarize the proposal, in "This
Week in COSMOS" format:
Tuesdays, 9:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. ET (1 hour) - SDD
Call
Tuesdays, 9:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m. ET (1 hour) - Release
Engineering Call
Tuesdays, 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. ET (1 hour) - Resource
Modeling Call
Wednesdays, 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. ET (1 hour) - Community
Call
Wednesdays or Thursdays (whichever is best), 11:00 a.m.
- 12:00 p.m. ET (1 hours) - Data
Collection and Data
Visualization Call
Thursdays, 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. ET (1 hour) - Architecture
Thoughts? Concerns? Agree/disagree?
Thanks,
David
