Web Components F2F Spring 2019

[rniwa]

We had a pretty productive meeting last spring in Tokyo. I solicited some interests and there appears to be a strong interest in having another F2F this spring around April.

Update: This F2F will take place on Thursday, April 25th and Friday, April 26th at Mozilla's Toronto office. Start time is 9AM both days.

Agenda : #802.

Minutes: raw minutes are available: https://www.w3.org/2019/04/25-components-irc

Ugh... creating forms is too hard. Why don't we vote for dates here instead.

My availability with preferred.

• Last week of March (3/25 - 3/29)
• First week of April (4/1 - 4/5)
• Second week of April (4/8 - 4/12)
• Third week of April (4/15 - 4/19)
• Fourth week of April (4/22 - 4/26)
• Last week of April & first week of May (4/29 - 5/3)
• Second week of May (5/6 - 5/10)

Of the above weeks, I'm good for almost all of them excepting Second week of April (my kids' spring break).

[annevk]

I can do second week of April and onward. (And once we have a week I can check with Mozilla's Toronto office about hosting.)

[smaug----]

Not first week of April.
And I'd prefer not May.

[JanMiksovsky]

Me:

• Last week of March (3/25 - 3/29)
• First week of April (4/1 - 4/5)
• Second week of April (4/8 - 4/12)
• Third week of April (4/15 - 4/19)
• Fourth week of April (4/22 - 4/26)
• Last week of April & first week of May (4/29 - 5/3)
• Second week of May (5/6 - 5/10)

(@rniwa: the dates for 2nd week of May should be 5/6–10, not 5/8–12.)

[rniwa]

Looks like the fourth week of April (4/22 - 4/26) is the winner right now.

[hayatoito]

Me:

• Last week of March (3/25 - 3/29)
• First week of April (4/1 - 4/5)
• Second week of April (4/8 - 4/12) (This week, we have BlinkOn10 conference)
• Third week of April (4/15 - 4/19)
• Fourth week of April (4/22 - 4/26)
• Last week of April & first week of May (4/29 - 5/3)
• Second week of May (5/6 - 5/10)

Last week of March (3/25 - 3/29) conflicts with TC39 (New York).
Fourth week of April (4/22 - 4/26) sounds good. Salesforce can host it on Vancouver or Paris if needed. /cc @diervo

[rniwa]

@caridy Thanks for the host offer. It would be great if you can host us in Vancouver. Maybe we should start polling. @justinfagnani offered that Google may be able to host us in Waterloo as well. And @annevk said Mozilla might be able to host us in Toronto.

If anyone else is willing to offer a location to host us, please do so now.

Given the forth week of April seems like the week that works for most people, why don't we figure out the exact date & location. Could everyone who offered to potentially host us check to see if that's a viable option for these days?

Let's start collecting the preferred number of days to meet, preferred dates, & locations. Here's mine:

Preferred number of days to meet: 2 days

Preferred dates:

• Mon, 4/22
• Mon, 4/23
• Mon, 4/24
• Mon, 4/25
• Mon, 4/26

Preferred Locations:

• Paris
• Toronto
• Vancouver
• Waterloo

[diervo]

I can confirm that Salesforce can happily host in Vancouver.
The early we can confirm the better.

[annevk]

It seems in principle Mozilla could host in Toronto (I've tentatively reserved a large room). Vancouver seems rather far to me for a two-day meeting. Avoiding Wednesday would make hosting easier, but it's not necessarily a deal-breaker. I'm flexible on days myself. My strong preference would be Paris by the way.

(Do we know how many people will attend?)

[rniwa]

Probably 15-20 people? Maybe @hayatoito would remember how many people attended it last year?

[chaals]

Last year about 25

[annevk]

(Neither of those numbers should present a problem for Mozilla Toronto as I understand it.)
