08/16/2022, 8:23 PMTo clarify, is it a retro about the last month of Pants development/community? Not a retro of the meeting itselfpeople can choose to discuss anything related to Pants, but my expectation is that it would be mostly the first thing… there will likely be less meta discussion.

08/16/2022, 8:23 PMBut I wonder how useful it is to do a retro about a single meetup that took place 30-60 days ago.@busy-vase-39202: the retro is not for the meeting itself: rather “for the work going on in the community since the previous retro”

08/16/2022, 8:26 PMKeep in mind it’s a meetup, not a meeting. It’s meant to develop morale and team cohesiveness as much as inform. It’s not strictly intended to be business.imo, structured discussion in the shape of a retro goes a long way toward understanding one another’s feelings about things and building cohesiveness. arguably more than presentations on various topics (that’s more of a meeting in my mind)

08/16/2022, 8:28 PMI like that it invites many people to contribute, not only the presentersyea, i think that this is important. while a fixed agenda is definitely also important, some amount of space for more free form discussion to build cohesiveness is sortof exactly what it sounds like this meeting is for.
