NPPS Leadership Team

[Torre Wenaus <wenaus AT gmail.com>]

My intent not being to manufacture unnecessary meetings, especially ones I host, I will have morning coffees two days a week on Mon and Wed.

We effectively have a leadership team coffee after the NPPS meeting. More coffee can be had by the leadership team members coming to the group coffees.

I am eager to flatten the curve too (typed on a day with 7 hours of meetings).

DUNE has Slack (dunescience.slack.com) with a couple dozen channels.
Maybe ironically, the channels I'm in have generally gone rather quiet
since WFH.

I made an "EDG" Mattermost team which is open so you should be able to
join if you want.  We only have a handful of members.  We could make a
"DUNE" channel there if there is a need.  I've already made a
"Wire-Cell" channel there.

In NPPS Mattermost I made a "neutrinos" channels which could be
interpreted as "DUNE".  It's just me and Maxim there, not chatting.
Join us in our silence!

Given the somewhat low adoption of Mattermost I feel like even these
additional channels may already be too fragmenting.

Yes, I've noticed this too.  Flatten the curve!
