We can try if this will help and if we can manage that. Bastian -- But Captain -- the engines can't take this much longer!

So I guess the next steps are: - propose some dates for the first meeting and a proposed recurrence (ideally weekly) - put together an initial agenda of items to look at I come back to this in the next few days.

Of course we may also have agenda times that don't fit into any of those categories.

So this sounds like a good idea. > We can try if this will help and if we can manage that. So here goes the first proposal. Lets meet for the first time on Wed, 29th May, at 21:00 CEST (19:00 UTC). I propose to do it on #debian-kernel@OFTC with MeetBot recording the meeting and conclusions (has any of you experience running meetings with MeetBot? If I'm intended to chair the meeting then I would appreciate some help with that). The first agenda could cover: - finding agreement on recurrence of meeting and timeslots, fixed days etc ... - discussion on recent filled and important open issues - review open merge requests - if not already covered: pending updates/work needed for kernel-team packages (e.g. firmware-nonfree rebase, linux move to 6.9.y, preparation for 6.10~rcX in experimental) - other things requiring syncup with the team. Thanks all and looking forward to get some movement in the kernel-team :) Regards, Salvatore
