Meeting setup automation [working PoC]

[naugtur]

Inspired by #96

@joshgav If you could add to the list of things you do to host a meeting, we could automate that a bit or at least anybody could take over without thinking if they didn't miss anything if we had the list documented.

Meeting prep:

1. gather agenda items: https://github.com/search?l=&q=org%3Anodejs+state%3Aopen+label%3Adiag-agenda&ref=advsearch&type=Issues&utf8=%E2%9C%93
2. prepare the doc from template
3. create entries for agenda items in the doc
4. host a hangout (not much to automate there)

I would look into automating some of it.

one other common thing is to create a google doc for the meeting minutes.

I have this project that could be used to upload the doc once created: https://www.npmjs.com/package/google-drive-wrapper

In terms of hosting the hangout, it would be good to create the hangout in advance so that it is visible, also those links needs to go into the item/minutes doc so would be good to automate creation of that as well

[mhdawson]

Its been mentioned a few times that automating the generation of meeting artifacts would be a great help, its just that nobody has had time to get to it yet.

I should have said, not specific to diagnostics but across all of the WG/teams.

Sounds like something I could do one summer weekend.

You would make a lot of people happy :)

@mhdawson is it mandatory to use google docs? could it be hackmd.io instead?

[naugtur]

I published v1 of the script with minimal functionality of creating the markdown for agenda and minutes.
It also creates an issue like this: naugtur/wg-meeting-cli#1

https://github.com/naugtur/wg-meeting-cli

Questions:

• how do I add all nodejs/diagnostics as contributors to the repo?
• any rules about posting an issue for the meeting?

Is there anything left to be done here? /cc @naugtur @mhdawson @mike-kaufman

[mike-kaufman]

@mhdawson has meeting auto-scheduling working (using github.com/mhdawson/create-node-meeting-artifacts/) so I think this can be closed.

[mmarchini]

Closing. Feel free to reopen if you feel there's anything left to be discussed
