Details are posted in the #announcements channel at meeting time for the link. During the weekly meeting chat along live on the #meetings channel. All meetings are available afterwards on YouTube for viewing.
Current Channels #announcements This is a one way only channel for announcements. It's a way to get a quick update on current issues, meeting announcements, ideas/issues up for consideration. This is NOT a discussion channel. #announcements-discuss THIS is where you can join in on any discussion of issues in the anouncements channel. The discussion is kept separate so the announcements channel can remain a quick reference without posts getting buried in long discussions. #meetings The live chat channel for use during google hangouts only #general: #random: off-topic place to share items of interest that are either amusing or not directly relevant to the platform development #updates: automated postings from integrated systems such as pr integrations on github etc.
