Thanks to everyone who participated today. It was a great discussion & we were psyched to have Culadasa join the call! There is a summary below, including the attendees, main topics discussed & practice resources people shared.
As a note, we had some connection issues with the videolink2.me platform. We then transitioned to Google Hangouts, but there was not space on there for everyone to join, which was very unfortunate. I will be looking to sign up for Zoom for next month, which is supposed to be a really good tool for large video chats. Also, I will attempt to record the next chat for anyone who can't make it. To do this we just need to get explicit permission from everyone on the call, before we start recording.
Attendees (apologies if I left anyone off):
Culadasa
Nathan
Barine
Anthony
Elizabeth
Matt
Denholm
Geoff
