Hi Doug and everyone working for Doug,

In OpenSim, design is something that happens continuously and in closed loop with implementation.

We don't have scheduled meetings, because that would be pretty much impossible to set up given all other commitments that people have and time zones where people live.

In order to support continuous design/implementation, we meet "continuously" in the IRC #opensim-dev channel -- that's our large, open, perpetually on, meeting room. If you login there, chances are you will find a critical mass of us also logged in. Even when we can't participate, we will see the chat log later on, especially if our names have been mentioned, because IRC clients have visual cues when someone mentions certain keywords of interest to us. When that happens, we usually ping back. And even when we are logged off when important conversations happen, someone will copy-paste the chat when we join. So, all in all, much better than a scheduled meeting.

Having said that, the best time periods to get critical mass on any day of the week are probably 9am to 9pm PST. And if you really want to make sure certain of us are there, send those people an email or PM asking if they can make themselves available at a certain date/time.

Looking forward to seeing many more of you there, (please do join!)

Good Morning Everyone,  we believe it would be a great idea to begin holding
design review meetings with the OS developers.  I'd like to discuss with you
our development roadmap and timelines.  We have a tight schedule, and now
that we have working stats collection in place, we can begin refinement of
the simulator to enhance performance.  The PhysX module is almost ready for
prime time and we would like to go over it with you before submitting the
patch.

I am aware that you sometimes meet, but I don't know where/when at this
time.  We have 9 members of the MOSES team on this effort, would you like us
to come to you?  We could host you on the MOSES grid if you'd rather come
there.

Lots of progress is being made and we'd like to fall into a comfortable
groove so that development can continue at an efficient pace.

Looking forward to your feedback.
