[OOTB-hive] Connecting (more) the community + OOTBee challenge

[Francesco Corti]

Hi Younes,

All good!

Just to clarify:
The (new) Office Hours will not be dedicated to the "new" OOTBee
initiative, but it will be a place where to meet and ask. From this point
of view the OH is an opportunity.
The attendance is not mandatory every week (not realistic). Me and/or
Kristen we will be there and if anyone will show up, we have tons of topics
to discuss (we usually meet more than one hour per week to discuss
initiatives). The goal here is to give a place for newbies to meet
Alfrescans and get in touch with the community all.
The goal is to kick the lack of transparency and openness; of course we
cannot solve the gaps me and Kristen (for example on contributions, JIRA
tickets, etc.) but we can be a first point of contact and "hear" the
external ecosystem.

Cheers,

-F
