Thanks @glvx. Wish I could have made it! Couldn’t do the early wake up today.

It might be a good idea to reschedule these to a different time, but that also may be self-serving. Serkan suggested some time instead of Friday, too.

Yea, summer is hard for meetings. Everybody is panicking that the summer will be over soon. At least me and the guy in the mirror.

I don’t want to say that talks are useless, but I guess it is not popular, because we don’t have metrics, and as a result, there is no traction, no feeling that we’ve accomplished anything. For people on a payroll it is not a problem, but for me it becomes a little bit depressive.

I love the way you expressed this, I feel the same way too.

@abbycabs Are you able to make this event on a regular basis?

@coni2k Are you OK rescheduling?

I won’t make it this Friday.

It’s OK for me to reschedule.

What do we think about these two options :point_down:

Option 1 - UTC 10:00 ~ 11:00 on Fridays:

Option 2 - UTC 20:00 ~ 21:00 on Thursdays:

I think an hour before Option 2 would also work! I like that one.

Sounds good to me!

Then, let’s do today’s (September 20) meeting at the usual time and schedule the next one with this new option. So, October 3, UTC 19:00 ~ 20:00

What do you think, people?

I think I need to resubscribe Google Calendar. Not sure it will be updated automatically.

I’ll be there today! Looking forward to discussing rescheduling.

@abbycabs @gvlx and Huen joined the yesterday’s call. About rescheduling the calls, everyone agreed to the Thursday 19:00 UTC option.

If this is good enough, can we adjust the meeting request? I can update the doc and share the news on social media accounts & Discord.
