Restarting meetings and dev sessions: when is everyone returning from holidays #46

Closed sanjayankur31 closed 3 years ago

sanjayankur31 commented 3 years ago

Hi @OCNS/software-wg : could everyone please comment to note when they're going away on the mid-term holidays, and when they'll be back available for meetings and dev sessions please? Especially parents who will have their hands full during the school holidays?

The idea is to restart meetings and dev sessions after the mid-term break, perhaps at the end of August/starting of September. If everyone can note when they'll be ready for these, we can start pencilling in dates.

Thanks very much,

I will be away from July 21 to 27, and then possibly around end-August to mid-September.... (highly dependent on how Covid situation progresses in the coming months!). But I should be able to attend short sessions/events during the latter period.

I'll be away July 22-25 as well as September 16-24. I'll probably have my laptop with me in September and may be able to attend.

Not an issue for me.

Hi everyone, I won't be available pretty much all the summer. Will be back in office September 6th.

sanjayankur31 commented 3 years ago

I'll be away next week, but then should be at work throughout other than a few days here and there where I may take leave.

brenthuisman commented 3 years ago

I leave next week, then spend nearly all of august in a course. I guess september will be the first month most of us are going to be back.

juhuntenburg commented 3 years ago

Hi, I'm new (see intro in discussions) and would be curious to join the next meeting after the break. I will be away August 9-27

tnowotny commented 3 years ago

Everything is up in the air with the covid situation but it is fair to say I will probably be either away or busy with family during the school vacations 26 July - 5 September.

Hi all,

I find that these meetings tend to be scheduled in the dead of night in my time zone (Sydney, Australia). Am I the only one who has this problem or are others effected too? I am just curious.

Obviously there will always be winners and losers. Australia often loses to America and Europe (for good reason) because they have the majority of delegates.

Hi Stewart, I'm in the same boat (Tokyo). With the critical mass of this group centered around Europe, I think it's only fair that the meeting times swing around from Europe/Americas to Europe/Asia/Pacific, as they have done. Some clashing is unavoidable given our distribution across the planet.

stewart-heitmann commented 3 years ago

OK. Thanks Felix. That’s good to know. It seems that we are the only two.

PS: I hope your Bash tutorial went well.

I am on vacation now, but will be back and available in a week or so, and should be available the rest of the summer.

sanjayankur31 commented 3 years ago

Let's wait for everyone to return. So, we can start planning bits for end of September or the start of October. I'll write a short blog post noting that we're all on vacation and will return then.
