linux-riscv Patchwork Sync-Up Meeting

[Palmer Dabbelt]

Carlos (from glibc) and I were talking at Plumbers about the patchwork 
sync up meeting they have [1].  This seemed like a generally good idea 
to me at the time, I've been meaning to go to figure out exactly how it 
works but it's at 6am Monday mornings for me so I've yet to make one.  
My original plan was to wait until I'd learned how that works before 
doing a linux-riscv sync meeting, but we were just talking on IRC 
earlier today and I figured let's just go ahead and schedule one as a 
forcing function to make something happen.

The general idea is to get some time blocked off to make sure that the 
patchwork instance stays sufficiently clean to remain useful.  That 
means we're not going to try and actually get the patches reviewed 
during the meeting (that will stay on the lists), but we'll just try to 
make sure that there's enough time blocked off to get the patches 
triaged each week and make sure nothing is slipping through the cracks.  
I'm sure there'll inevitably be discussion on the contents of some 
patches, but as everyone can't participate we'll just need to be sure to 
reflect everything to the mailing lists like we try to do for every 
off-list discussion.

The meeting is open to anyone, I've made a Google Calendar for it that 
should be public [2] but I'm pasting the details here as well:

    linux-riscv Patchwork Sync

Happy to move to something aside from Google Meet, but it's the most 
reliable setup for me these days as it's what we use at work.  If folks 
prefer something else that's fine with me, just say so and I'll try to 
figure out how to sort it out (as long as it runs on a Chromebook, which 
is what I use for video calls).  IIUC the glibc folks also have IRC open 
during the syncs for text, that seems reasonable to me (#riscv on libera 
looks like the best bet to me).

It doesn't start next week as my internet is down at home and I'm 
getting the service swapped over next Wednesday morning, so it'll start 
the week after.  The plan is to have it every week on Wednesday 
mornings, as that'll give us enough time to make sure any critical RC 
patches that get called out can still get reviewed in time for that 
week's PR.
