Subject: Sched Ext slack channel / office hours

Hello everyone,

The first RFC patch set [0] for sched_ext was sent to the upstream list
almost one year ago, with three more revisions of the series having been
sent upstream since. In that time, a number of individuals, companies,
and organizations have begun to use and experiment with sched_ext. We
want to make it easier to collaborate, so we’ve decided to set up a
weekly office hours call, and create a Slack channel [1] that folks can
join to ask questions, discuss features, etc.

[0]: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/
[1]: https://join.slack.com/t/schedextworkspace/shared_invite/zt-24c4on3sk-sHlozdLfCZBODfwU6t6dbw

The Slack channel can be joined via the link in [1]. For office hours,
we’ll start with 10:00 PDT / 17:00 UTC on Mondays (likely starting the
week of 10/30), but we can change the time if it’s inconvenient for too
many folks. The calls will likely take place through Slack, so you’ll
have to join the Slack channel if you want to participate in the office
hours calls. As a friendly reminder, you can access the sched_ext
repository at [2].

Thanks,
David

I just have to state that there's a significant amount of people on this
list (myself included) that will not use slack (I don't have it installed
on any of my machines, and will not install it). Perhaps an open source
platform (matrix) or simply an IRC channel would work for us. Although that
still would not guarantee that anyone would show up.

That said, I do host a Linux schedule monthly meeting on Google meets if
you would like to join that.

Hi Steven,

Yes, it could be beneficial to attend your meeting as well. Please feel
free to send us an invitation to any instance of your meeting that is
related to sched_ext.

Thanks,
David

It's a very informal meeting and the agenda is usually created at the
meeting. So there will never be a "we are going to talk about sched_ext".
If that topic comes up, it will be because the people there want to talk
about it. The people that usually attend are:

Myself
Juri Lelli
Daniel Bristot
Joel Fernandes
Vineeth Pillai
Youssef Esmat

But it's open to anyone that wants to attend. I should send out more
invites to others that participate in the scheduler work. I sent an invite
to Peter, but he's never accepted.

And sometimes we get a few others. It's mostly just to discuss latest
trends of the scheduler.

Sounds good, please send me an invitation and I'll join whenever I'm
available.

In Europe, we just changed to winter time. I don't know if it is the same
in the US. What time will the meeting be?

Hello Julia,

The meeting will start in ~3 hours from now at UTC 17:00. This can be
adjusted for future sessions if it turns out to be inconvenient for
folks.

For now, we'll be conducting the meeting over Zoom. I'll post details of
the meeting into Slack. Anyone who would like to join the meeting but is
not on Slack may ping me privately, and I'll send them the Zoom meeting
information.

Thanks,
David
