Sorry for my words that may make you uncomfortable... Yes, I mean in-person because it's more efficient. I thought you have many discussions and meetings about the design, roadmap or planning. But different time zones are really an obstacle. Having discussions face to face is not quite realistic.
Maybe we can start another thread to discuss the interaction of the Impala community, e.g. regular meetings (via Slack or WeChat), roadmap and planning discussion, etc. Thanks for all your efforts to make the community grow!
