Maybe you misunderstood my proposal, I totally agree with you about |
28 |
IRC meetings. I didn't propose video calls as a full replacement for |
29 |
IRC meetings. Also, I've never said to use video calls every single |
30 |
day. |
31 |
These team video calls would be good to exist for different reasons. |
32 |
These video calls are going to promote Gentoo, our team efforts and |
33 |
could be useful to our users and those who want to contribute. As I |
34 |
said before, it is optional, a team maybe choose not to do any video |
35 |
call, a team could do *only one* video call and stop or a team could |
36 |
do frequent video calls. It's up to the team to decide. |
