Re: moving forward—with a plan

Hi Ruben

Ugh, you missed the irony here, sorry :). I'm just worried that a call 
actually will force anyone to do anything.
While we can spent time on calls/mailing lists, unless any of these ends up 
with a list of tasks assigned for individual members, it just won't work. 
There are several important threads on the forum and from github graphs I 
can't see to much of that activity recently. The biggest movement was around 
July 2014.

Indeed, call is more direct, especially when there are only few participants 
(for more than 10 I don't expect it to work from my experience), but it's 
not the way we communicate is the issue. The outcome of such communication 
is an issue - there is none.

Ok, lets try make minutes from calls/thread discussions, convert them to 
tasks, let each member interested get one and lets just move on.

Regards

Karol

A call is a (bi-)weekly meeting,
which forces one to have something done.
It really helps improve commitment.
Plus higher bandwidth and more nuance.

It's like going to the weight watchers every week;
much easier to stay committed and on track,
than if we all try it on ourselves.

Regarding this, I want to emphasize:

I wouldn't suggest in any way to exclude anybody;
and minutes would be the way to go.

Best,

Ruben
