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.
