Re: Apache Cassandra Virtual meetings

[sankalp kohli]

Thank you all for the feedback. It has been a week since last last feedback
so we will move forward with these meeting. We plan to start them post
NGCC. If anyone feedback is not addressed, please let me know.

Also feedback on this will always be welcomed even when meetings are
ongoing as I am assuming shape of this meeting will keeping changing over
time based on feedback.

[Dinesh Joshi]

It would be great to have a calendar of these events if we're scheduling them 
on a regular cadence. We could use a shared Google Calendar or $tool to publish 
it.

 We use a simple format that could help e.g.
 
 1. Review long term vision/ roadmap.
 2. Review next release / features that are in progress.
 3. Discuss issues in general and make a game plan for the next quarter.
 
 Nothing too complicated, but at least some structure so that we are
 timeboxed on what we are doing.

This. I adore simple gcal additions and use quite a few. Thanks for the 
suggestion!


I would also, selfishly, love to get some folks actively posting things 
to #cassandra-dev during NGCC/ApacheCon, since I cannot attend. I'll be 
offshore with no internet access for several days, but just want a way 
to keep up with conversations and presentations.
