Discussion

• Discussed Zoom requiring authentication with LF to join versus link being open to public guests... if anybody had trouble joining, please comment on this thread to let us know
• Discussed Charter and some of the open questions around the Aggregation Proof of Concept #29 POC to make it clearer what the implications of executing on the charter would be
• Concern raised on whether we collect only events about DevRel or all events which DevRel may participate, expectation is the latter
• Concern raised about the feasibility of collecting data, but acknowledged that is the point of resource aggregation is to aggregate the resources
• Concern raised about scaling the data which could be thousands of events; suggestion is that we are relying on good samaritans who are building devrel programs to share event data they are aggregating through tooling in order for the initiative to be successful
• Concern raised about review process; suggestion is that the data repository has a review process, but the review is not done by an individual but a team requiring at least one approver and that after each contribution and acceptance of contribution guidelines, the team expands to include that person -- so effectively all contributors become future reviewers and only a second vote is necessary to accept new data (so long as it validates)

Next Steps

• no meeting scheduled until charter is approved by steering committee in Full Charter Draft Review #42
