## HELP PICK A MEETING TIME
(Z "Zulu" time refers to UTC; [check where you are](http://www.timeanddate.com/time/map/), but the meeting is tied to civil time, not UTC, so when the various countries all switch to/from DST, the meeting's UTC time changes)

The first half of the meeting is "Nuts and Bolts" (engineering!): bug triage, discussion of current development efforts, branch and patch review, etc. After a short break, we switch to "Tesla Coils and Corpses" (science!): brainstorming of new features, analysis of other projects, and other forward-looking explorations.
## Upcoming
## Agenda for next meeting (26-Jul-2016)
### the next *Tesla Coils and Corpses* meeting
* topic 1
* topic 2
URL: <https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/gukzavzcreefp74y5s2q2f4eq4a>
## Other Stuff
Agenda: Programming language design -- conditions and restarts in Common Lisp
We switch chat tools every few months, in an attempt to overcome performance problems. Tools we've used:
This will be a *"TESLA COILS AND CORPSES"* meeting — it is about science, big new features, writing papers about our work, etc.
* Google Hangouts
* <https://appear.in/tahoe-lafs>
* <https://talky.io/tahoe-lafs>
* <https://vline.com/>
* <https://chat.skyway.io/>
* <https://opentokrtc.com/>
If you're more into engineering, debugging, documentation, making stable releases, etc. then stay tuned for a future meeting about *"NUTS AND BOLTS"*.
Most require a browser extension to enable screensharing.
### the next *Nuts and Bolts* meeting
We frequently keep notes on an etherpad, the URL for which is posted at the start of the meeting. Patrick [McDonald](McDonald) turns these notes into the Tahoe Weekly News.
URL: TBA

## WebRTC (not in use)
WebRTC seems to require Google !Chrome/Chromium or a FireFox ≥ v28 or so.
* recommended WebRTC chat rooms:
- <https://opentokrtc.com/hot.peach.hurt.halloween.rib> — This one claims to be fully Open Source.
- <https://talky.io/hot.peach.hurt.halloween.rib> — This one claims to be only partially Open Source, but it supports screen-sharing (although only with Google !Chrome/Chromium) and opentokrtc.com doesn't seem to.
* other WebRTC chat rooms:
- <https://vline.com/>
- <https://appear.in/>
- <https://chat.skyway.io/>
