So I have now realized a serious flaw in my previously posted plan that 2 people liked and no one objected to:
... handle ticket assignment to sub-groups of 2-4 people a few days to a week ahead of our meeting, and then use the group teleconference to report on difficulties, successes, ask questions, etc.
Who creates the sub-groups of 2-4 people? Me? I feel a bit uncomfortable in that role, but being as it I have (unwisely) left this to the last minute, I don't see any other way. So, three groups of 4 each, selected alphabetically by first name (in part because that keeps mentees Alejandro and Sarah with their mentors James and Syd): 1. Ticket 125 (https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/issues/125): * Alejandro Bia * Elli Mylonas * Hugh Cayless * James Cummings 2. Ticket 138 (https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/issues/138): * Lou Burnard * Magdalena Turska * Martin Holmes * Martina Scholger 3. Ticket 136 (https://github.com/TEIC/Stylesheets/issues/136): * Peter Stadler * Raffaele Viglianti * Sarah Stanley * Syd Bauman The goal would be to have at least an e-mail discussion, if not a conference call, about the ticket and make some progress, keeping notes of where the hangups and problems occur for discussion w/ the group. You should feel free, if not outright compelled, to participate in the discussion even if you won't make it to the group conference call.
Anyway, we are planning to meet this coming Tue 01 May 18 at 13:00Z. That's * 06:00 PDT (Martin) * 09:00 EDT (Syd, Elisa, Elli, Raff, Sarah, Hugh) * 14:00 BST (James) * 15:00 CEST (Lou, Peter, Martina, Magdalena?)
