Feature request: start a monthly video "meetup" for DNSControl

[tlimoncelli]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'd like to expand the DNSControl community by having a monthly video call where we talk about DNScontrol, answer questions, etc.

Describe the solution you'd like

• AMS time: 8:00 PM – 9:00 PM

• NYC time: 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM

• Cali time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM

• T+0: meeting starts

  • Welcome
  • News: (new providers, etc)
  • Bug Triage: Review some of the oldest and newest bugs
  • Q&A

• T+55: Meeting ends!

Describe alternatives you've considered
I tried talking to myself but it didn't have the same utility.

Tom, while I'd love to join you and put some faces to names, that's unfortunately 6am for me here in eastern Australia. Maybe next time!

[tlimoncelli]

@hmoffatt Thanks for letting me know. Sadly it's difficult to find a time that works for everyone. We'll try to fix this in the future!

[tlimoncelli]

The video call is up. The meeting will start in 10 minutes.

How did it go? I meant to join up but got caught up running errands today instead.

[tlimoncelli]

Pretty good!

6 people attended. We discussed a wide variety of topics. I learned a lot about what is confusing for new users. Notes are here:

Watched the video and kept wanting to comment, then remembered it was "previously recorded." Looking forward to next month.
