These agenda items are the same ones from last time. I forgot to remove the agenda label.

Do we need any further discussion on these, or on anything else?

[DerekNonGeneric]

Maybe we should reconvene after the holidays — it would give us the time for experimentation w/ the current iteration of the hooks system before we discuss chaining. I somewhat have a feeling that we are going to need one more iteration of the hooks system before we should feel confident enough in our API to incorporate chaining into the equation.

[JakobJingleheimer]

I think we don't need to re-visit these. I don't have anything new yet and won't have finished any implementations to discuss those. I'm picking up https imports today, but I doubt that'll be done by Tuesday.

I see Maël has opened a PR though (I'm looking at it this morning too).

[arcanis]

Yep I have open my PR, but given the short amount of time until the meeting I feel like it should be fine to make the first few iterations async via the PR comments, and see whether it stabilised enough to discuss the remaining bits in January?

[GeoffreyBooth]

Okay so per these comments I assume we should cancel for tomorrow?

[DerekNonGeneric]

This agenda — it looks to be very pertinent, and they are all things that I would be interested in having a conversation about — things that may be long overdue for us to discuss…

At the moment, I am a bit bogged down w/ other things. Still, I would be interested in discussing these topics in greater length, but whether I see myself jumping on a conference call tomorrow afternoon is another story. 🙃

Is anyone else planning to attend? I may be able to show up if others want to have a chat.

[JakobJingleheimer]

Mm, I think the time today might be better spent reviewing Maël's PR and implementing the other PRs.

[GeoffreyBooth]

Okay sounds like we should cancel this one. I'll remove the agenda label from those issues, please add it to anything you want to discuss next time.

[DerekNonGeneric]

Why remove agenda label? Those are all valid issues!

[GeoffreyBooth]

Why remove agenda label? Those are all valid issues!

They were all discussed at the last meeting. If you or anyone else would like to discuss them at the next meeting, just add the label back. Once an issue is discussed at a meeting, we take the label off unless folks in the meeting say that they want to continue discussing that topic at the next meeting, but that didn’t happen for any of these last time.

[DerekNonGeneric]

They were all discussed at the last meeting.

Where is that recording?

@GeoffreyBooth YouTube failed to stream with some kind of permissions issue so it got synced to the Zoom cloud again.
