Thanks for initiating this conversation Sankalp. On the ASF front, I think we 
need to ensure that non-Pacific time participants can also participate in the 
discussions. So posting the notes and opening up discussions after the meet up 
to dev@ would be a great way of making sure everyone can participate and gets 
visibility. Additionally, we should consider scheduling this meetup in 
different timezones as far as logistics allow it.
