Hi Techboard members,

It would be great if we could get the meeting notes in a more timely manner.

Can we also get a link to the full IRC log of the meeting as part of the meeting notes, please?

Can we also get a calendar invite posted to dev@dpdk.org a few days before each techboard meeting together with the agenda, so that interested folks can join?

Thanks,
Cristian

Sorry, we are not good at making reports, but we try to improve.

The meetings are not private but the way we talk together is not intended
to be published verbatim.

The meetings are every 2 weeks on Wednesday at 3pm UTC.
The date and agenda are updated here:
