This is a question for Justin or any other mentor.
There are a couple of associated web sites that are dedicated for NuttX
event planning: nuttx2019.org and https://nuttx.events/. nuttx2019.org
now just re-directs to nuttx.events. They event planners used to use a
private channel in the NuttX Slack for communication. However, the
NuttX project can no longer host private conversations in the NuttX Slack;
nuttx.events is managed by Dave Marples.. It is fairly open but they
need to have some private discussions related to events, event planning,
sponsor relationships, etc. For example, planning is (or at least was)
underway for the NuttX2020 event in Tokyo in May. I am not sure what
they are doing now.. I hope I didn't undermine them too badly.
So the question is, after having booted event planning out into the
cold, is there some way to bring it back into the fold. There must be
other projects that host events and must have similar planning needs.
Do you know what the standard practice is for such things? I imagine
that an independent group like nuttx.events is necessary, but is there
any way to coordinate. Slack private channels worked very well for
this. I don't know what the replacement could be and would be open to
suggestions.
