Hack session! - Thursday, 2017 April 13, 14:00 UTC

[Justin W. Flory]

Hi all,

In our IRC meeting today, we went ahead and put a hack session onto the
calendar for us to meet for an hour (maybe longer if people are around
and interested) to "hack" on some CommOps tasks.

We used to have hack sessions a fair bit, but it's been a while since
we've had one! If you have no idea what this is, you can check out more
here:

We're currently aiming for Thursday, 2017 April 13, 14:00 UTC. Converted
for your convenience:

* 09:00 US CT
* 10:00 US ET
* 16:00 CEST
* 19:30 IST

I'm trying to see if we can get a BlueJeans instance, but if not, we can
use a Hangouts. The link will probably be shared in IRC once we get
started. Meet us in #fedora-commops if you want to join in on the fun. :)

Thanks!

May I suggest an alternative - https://meet.jit.si

Using this service doesn't require a Google account and it certainly is easy to connect. All we need is a WebRTC enable browser. Moreover, Hangouts doesn't work with Firefox and I personally dislike Chrome.

Hi Dhanesh, we will be using bluejeans where i believe you can join without
an account.

Best regards,
Radka

Just to follow up too, since we were able to snag a BlueJeans instance —
we had tried using Jitsi in the past, but in our experiences, it worked
best when all participants were on the same continent. It seemed like it
was still in an early development phase and still needed to work out a
few connectivity issues.

Since tomorrow is coming up and we won't have a lot of time to
experiment before then, we can use BlueJeans and try out Jitsi again to
test a future time. :)

Huge thanks for everyone who participated and attended today! I had to
disconnect and head out, but there's a few people still working on some
tasks. :)

Since this time seemed to work out nicely, I'm going to go ahead and
schedule another one of these for next week. I'm going to go ahead and
put it into Fedocal now.

Thanks all!

Hi team,

I want to thank you all for this amazing session, I'm agreed that we
can do this as often as we can: It's really productive, also we can
meet each other even if is for a short time.

I hope we can do this again soon.

Br,
