Use old Notebook meeting slot for open "Office Hours" with the community + each other (maintainers) #237

Open ericsnekbytes opened 4 months ago

ericsnekbytes commented 4 months ago

We should use the old Notebook meeting slot (830am PST every Wednesday) to host a weekly "Office Hours", where we can provide help and support for community members and each other (core devs/maintainers), and do other work that benefits the community.

Everyone (from Jupyter novice to core dev) should feel welcome and participate as they like: You can simply listen in and offer your expertise when it's relevant, bring a problem or PR with you for feedback, or bring some other tasks and questions to the table. Some examples of activities we can do in this meeting:

Many people are already going to be attending the Lab meeting just after this slot, which should make it easier for maintainers and users to join.

Thanks @ericsnekbytes for opening the issue.

Maybe this could be moved to the team compass repo? https://github.com/jupyterlab/team-compass

For reference, there were some plans to do something like this for the Notebook 6 to 7 transition, although we never got to officially do it in the end: jupyter/notebook-team-compass#13

@jtpio noted that there were similar plans being discussed earlier (on the duplicate/old issue on the Lab repo).
