Looks like our best time for meetings is Monday at 21:00 UTC (07:00 Tuesday AEST, 17:00 Monday EST, 14:00 Monday PST), so let’s start off with that and refine it as needed. I hope to see you all in #wordpress-core-plugins then!

Topic for the first week is scoping out the project and creating a timeline. If you have time, try out the API and get an idea of what’s already there before the meeting so we’re all on the same page. If you can’t make it to this meeting, don’t worry, as I’ll post a summary and the scope here afterwards.

If you have any topics to suggest, or any part of the scope that you can think of already, comment here and I’ll make sure we get to it in the meeting. Please feel free to post here at any time, everyone has author privileges for a reason. @markoheijnen has also mentioned that he’s looking into creating a WordCamp-related app based on the API, which is pretty awesome.

Welcome everyone to the new o2 for the REST API team! (And hello also to all of the blog followers that we somehow gained. )

As I mentioned in my email, I’d like to get weekly office hours/meetings under way soon and start reviewing the work so we can create a timeline. At the moment, I’m thinking Friday at 2100 UTC (0700 Saturday AEST, 1700 Friday EST, 1400 Friday PST), which works pretty well for me, but I’m not sure about you guys. Friday evening might be a bad time for you guys, so let me know if we can pick a better time or date. (The advantage of this one is also that it doesn’t conflict with any other meetings, such as 3.7/3.8 or the other feature teams.)
