A global TikiFest during the pandemic travel restrictions
Introduction
Due to health and travel regulation during the Covid-19 Pandemic, we decided that the 2021 TikiFest will be a virtual one.
To coordinate with users that have different timezone we’ll set here a first survey then move the narrowed options to a convene plugins to be effective and clear. We'll set teams of users interested to solve or improve an area and that are able to work together (timezone) and progress in parallel.
The last meeting should be a kind of conclusion (completing committing, documentation, and eventually planning other steps)... The goodbye toast. 🍻
