Running a virtual developer meeting presents a new set of challenges and
a chance to engage a larger audience. As always, we will collect topics on
the wiki at https://www.openembedded.org/OEDVM_2021. For each topic, we expect at
least three people to agree to be moderators for the discussion. About two
weeks before the meeting (early May), the OpenEmbedded board and technical
steering committee will select 6 topics for discussion.
To increase global participation, we strongly encourage moderators to
prerecord 10-15 minutes opening statement describing the topic and current
state of solutions. These will be posted to the OpenEmbedded youtube channel
so people can view them at a convenient time. We would like to collect
feedback as youtube comments (???) (maybe wiki?) We do not expect perfect
videos, this can be done by recording a zoom meeting of the moderators.
The idea is reach the global community across all time zones and allow
them to provide aynchronous input without losing sleep. The remaining 45
minutes are for reviewing comments and further discussion.
For the actual developer meeting, there will be six one hour timeslots for
each topic. The moderators have the option of opening with the video or
doing something else if the online discussions warrants a change. The
moderators should summarize the online comments and then moderate a
discussion with the online live audience. We hope that by presenting
the topic early, people have a chance to think out concrete solutions
for discussion.

Location and Time

Co-located with the Yocto Project Summit held on May 25-26, 2021. Exact times are TBD. Since this will be a virtual meeting we are going to change the format around to try and make it easier to get input from the global community and still maintain an in person portion.

Running a virtual developer meeting presents a new set of challenges and a chance to engage a larger audience. As always, we will collect topics on the wiki at https://www.openembedded.org/OEDVM_2021. For each topic, we expect at least three people to agree to be moderators for the discussion. About two weeks before the meeting (early May), the OpenEmbedded board and technical steering committee will select 6 topics for discussion.

To increase global participation, we strongly encourage moderators to prerecord 10-15 minutes opening statement describing the topic and current state of solutions. These will be posted to the OpenEmbedded youtube channel so people can view them at a convenient time. We would like to collect feedback as youtube comments (???) (maybe wiki?) We do not expect perfect videos, this can be done by recording a zoom meeting of the moderators. The idea is reach the global community across all time zones and allow them to provide aynchronous input without losing sleep. The remaining 45 minutes are for reviewing comments and further discussion.

For the actual developer meeting, there will be six one hour timeslots for each topic. The moderators have the option of opening with the video or doing something else if the online discussions warrants a change. The moderators should summarize the online comments and then moderate a discussion with the online live audience. We hope that by presenting the topic early, people have a chance to think out concrete solutions for discussion.
