• Recommendation to organise sprints outside the academic period (Luis)
• OGC help envagelise OGC API Standards (Mahidhar); start with blog posts (connect with CDPG).
• Daniel: is STA in its current form the right Standard to address Time Series? Which Standard would be best suited to address vector data time series?
• Ricardo developed a tool for easing compliance assessment.
• Joao, Luis (and other people) have started a DGGS software that supports multiple grids: contributors are welcome
• Node coordination: adapting to the timezone, by starting a bit later; it was a bit difficult in the beginning, to orient, but it was a learning experience for future sprints.
• Record tutorials and provide a stream during the entire code sprint; provide more learning resources;
• Use the specialised channels to provide more specific information (even if it is a bot) , could trigger more engagement
• The number of meetings is fine, but people can create ad-hoc meetings to discuss specific topics.
