Today we had a first community team chat for Asia/Pasific/everyone! 🌏🌎🌍🙌 @kenshino did great facilitator, Thanks a lot! Let me share the summary:

Monthly Stats

Frequency of meetings

  • Backgroud: @kenshino proposed. Currently we do monthly meeting. A lot of the deputiesProgram Supporter Community Program Supporters (formerly Deputies) are a team of people worldwide who review WordCamp and Meetup applications, interview lead organizers, and keep things moving at WordCamp Central. Find more about program supporters in our Program Supporter Handbook. are volunteers who only can help a couple hours per week, so we won’t use much energy for frequent meeting.
    On the other hand, Asia is a growing region and some people have always felt that missing monthly meetings meant not getting even eyes on issues that needed to be discussed.
  • Needs opinion: How often should we have meeting?
    Please add comment on this post 📝
    • once a week
    • one every two weeks

  • Background: @mayukojpn proposed this topic originally. Recently we saw a opinion about event name (city name vs country name) in Europe, but how in Asia? Do you have opinion or issue with event name? (at least we discussed in Japanese community sometimes)
  • Decision: nothing at that time.
  • note: This time we actually talked about URLURL A specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a website’s URL www.wordpress.org structure (2017.city.wordcamp.org) not event name. It happened because I didn’t explain what I expected when we start this topic (sorry!). So Mayo will propose this topic again at next meeting with preparing my question. About URL structure if anyone have better idea, let’s suggest!
