How should we structure the AsyncAPI design meetings?

Hi 👋

A few weeks ago, I messaged the #12_design channel and asked if those in the community would join a regularly-scheduled design meeting where we can discuss happenings in the area of design. While a lot of you have voted in favor for these, I began to ask myself what way would be best to structure these meetings so they become productive for the community goals?

I need your help 😄 I have a few ideas for the style of these meetings, but would love to know your thoughts/ideas as well:

1. Presentation-style: ideas/designs will be presented via a slideshow as more of a "design showcase" type of meeting where we can collaborate in real time and give feedback on current projects
2. Live collaboration: we will sprint through design ideas together in a live session
3. Unstructured: there is no structure to the meeting, we will all just show up to the meeting and speak naturally on various design topics within AsyncAPI
4. Mixture of the above: we interchange the meeting styles above as needed

Personally, I CRAVE structure. So the idea of an unstructured meeting on a live stream just gives me an immense amount of anxiety 😆 However, it's not all about me, so I would love to hear what everyone thinks about these ideas and if there is anything else we could add to them.

Hi @mcturco, I love the structure in general, too 😅. I think that perhaps a mix of the options is the most versatile. This way, the meetings can be adapted to the interests and needs that could arise 🙃
