Research direction

Start with the linked HackMD document for the agenda, meeting notes, and call link, then read the linked EOSS award blog post for context. This issue announces recurring community meetings but names no file, test, or requested repository change, so it has no concrete completion condition to verify.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Community

With the array API standard development having stabilized after several releases, with more and more different projects either having implemented the standard or working on adopting its usage, and with the focus shifting to that adopting, we feel that it's time for regular public community meetings. So we're happy to start those this week!

We're also happy to announce that CZI awarded a 2 year grant as part of its EOSS program in support of work on the array API standard.🎉 That support also makes it easier to support the organising of public meetings (and whatever else seems valuable for community engagement). This new blog post has more details: https://data-apis.org/blog/eoss6_award/

These meetings will be held as Zoom calls at 6pm UTC every other Thursday, starting on 14 November. The agenda, meeting notes and call link can be found in this HackMD document. If you have a topic to discuss, please feel free to add to the agenda.
