I can make it, but I just want to be sure more people will be around.

Noone has confirmated to be available and I just doesn't want to
stay and we end up not having a meeting, you see?

Both time doesn't work for me. If we have the meeting I'll then stay
to attendee to it. It would be nice if more people really confirm that
they'll be available so I stay here for a useful meeting.

If you're not around at any of these moments, we can also postpone that

But the meeting is proposed for April 20th, still. I mean Monday.

My proposal was to have the meeting hour slip by 1h from 20:00 to
21:00 *in case it would make it easier for you to attend*.

Sorry but I just recall that I'll have a trip with my family at April 20th.
It is quite near here but I'm unsure if I can make the time to be around.

It works for me.

 We could also decide by advance what the maximum meeting duration
 would be. 1h30 seems to be appropriate for me. If we have very
 specific stuff that need longer discussions, we can still plan special
 meetigns for it.

So, if we adopt this, the next meeting should be on Monday April 20th,
ie next Monday.

Would that be OK for everybody ?

So, meeting every 1st and 3rd Monday of the month at 20:00UTC?

Having regular meetings allow us to have short ones; I think 1h30min is
enough. Specially after  those that we're doing to organize things I do
believe they'll be able to be shorter.

Agreed. I use the "very other " rule atwork very often (I'm a
geat user of regular meetings, actually, my scheduler isfull of such
beasts), but we have a common Agenda software to handle this.

What about "Every 1st and 3rd Monday of each month" ? This will

I think having regular meetings is not a bad idea, even if the’re going
to be really quick some of the times because there may not be much to
discuss. Though it should be worth mentioning what the expected duration
is going to be.

Anyway, my point is that if you’re going to hold regular meetings, the
best you can do (for hopefully obvious reasons) is coming up with a rule
that let’s you immediately know when the next meeting is, without having
to know when the previous one was. The typical “the first Thursday of
each month” people use. I’ll note Your proposed “every other Monday”
does not meet the rule, unless you’d be geeky and say “Mondays when
`date +%V` is even”.

Folks, I have to apologize.

Due to a very infortunate sequence of events related to my
stepfather's health (no worries finally, he's doing well), I couldn't
attend the meeting and even not warn attendees on #debian-boot.

I really apologize for this. I read #debian-boot backlog and see that
Otavio and Luk tried to hold an informal meeting anyway, mostly
talking about d-i updates for the stable point release.

We could maybe record the logs of this discussion and hint them as the
April 11th meeting log, do you think?

Apart from this, I propose rescheduling another team meetign (indeed
I'd like to keep a good pace in team meetings that are obviously our
only chance to get everybody aroundassuming that I don't fail
attending and we choose a better day for schedule.

April 11th was indeed a mistake as the original intent was *Monday*
April 13th, but a mix in dates made me announce April 11th.

I'd like to keep Mondays with a two weeks rhythm, which would make us
plan a meeting either on April 20th (if we consider that this meeting
was postponed) or on April 27th (if we consider that this meeting
happened).

My personal preference would be for Monday April 20th. Would that suit
you?


Again, apologies for missing that meeting and being such a jerk...

Proposed topics:

- finish going through the release goals list (followup for March 30th

- status of development and early plans for a release?
- work methods improvement: proposal for regular short team meetings

(the last two topics come out of my mind, please feel free to amend/comment)
