In the past, MariaDB Developer meetings have been open invitation and pre-announced, e.g.: - https://mariadb.org/en/developer-meetings/ - http://planet.mysql.com/entry/?id=30418 - http://monty-says.blogspot.com/2011/02/come-to-lisbon-and-meet-mariadb.html - http://monty-says.blogspot.com/2011/11/mariadb-developer-meeting-in-athens.h... And this was even included in Monty's presentation as recently as a couple weeks ago: http://www.slideshare.net/skysql/mariadb-100-skysql-paris-meetup-171220113
From Slide 47: "Open source development: Anyone can be part of the development at all stages. Developer meetings are public!"
Yet, I've heard from a casual mention on IRC that there is such a meeting next week in Barcelona, and I haven't seen any mention of it on this list or elsewhere: <montywi> prohaska7: we will have a mariadb developers meeting in Barcelona next week Are the meetings still public/open? If so, what happened here? Is this a policy change? (I've also seen no private invitation, in case that were in question.) Regards, Jeremy
