• Plan to set up a meeting with Aimee B from Pangeo Forge / DevSeed after our Tuesday tech/infra/architecture meeting.
  • Aimee said the timing is really good, as they’re starting up major development efforts and trying to understand how the project can better serve NASA needs.

Upcoming technical all-hands meeting

• Prepare for tomorrow’s meeting to make best use of Matt J’s time; only half hour!
• Planning doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MnFYpR5pZj09zUsNCoEWibzS2amjMEcfYW9LjgtTQvk/edit#heading=h.sx02wqjuczm3
• Rushiraj: ”gut check” if these questions are important to ask Matt J, or if someone can answer to make a better use of Matt’s 30 minutes.

Place to put our work

• Set up a repository? Notes, architecture diagrams, decisions, etc. in repo; discussions in “Discussions”; ???
• Matt F, Trey: start a new QGreenland-Net org, repo, discussions, etc.
• Give everyone “owner” privileges in the org.
• Transfer today’s meeting notes there
• Transfer discussions from QGreenland repo -> new org
• Start discussion threads for longer-running less-urgent architecture discussions. Does async work well for Matt J’s limited time?
• Add high-level diagram to repo and iterate together
• Create decision record space: https://github.com/QGreenland-Net/qgreenland-net.github.io/pull/2
  • Decision: Adopted Mermaid
