Thanks everyone, we're looking to do a 4 hours kick off meeting coming back from labor day weekend, most likely on the 4th of September (not set in stone yet). From that point on, we should expect punctual interactions and weekly 2h long meetings.
I will start a separate thread with the interested folks to coordinate. We'll keep the community posted as we move forward.
