Other Items:

A note on the timing of the call, and sustainability:

This call takes place between 01:30 and 02:30 in Japan to allow North American and European participants to collaborate. However, this makes it difficult for the General Manager to attend. There is a request to action one of two things:

  1. Move the meeting to a North America / Asia schedule, complementary with the other OpenChain Monthly Specification and Education Call (Europe / Asia) on 3rd Wednesdays or
  2. A community volunteer to run the meeting on a regular basis

Issue to be discussed further.

Coming Next:

We will be following up on the activities outlined above on the mailing lists, and we will continue our regular series of calls and meetings throughout the year.
