pine, i find the lack of feedback a pity, so let me give at least my personal impression. "activities and metrics" sounded bureaucratic, and it sounded like work, not rewarding. the opposite of fun. not sure if a regular meetup would work better? a hangout? same time all the time. no matter how many persons are there, maybe once a month? one would need to think a little about the fun though.

Hi all,
Given the lack of interest and lack of suggestions, I'm going to cancel the meeting. However, if other people would like to be bold in organizing a meeting like this, they are welcome to do so.
I would like to encourage interpersonal and social connections among good-faith Wikimedia content contributors and grassroots project organizers, and I'd be glad to see suggestions and initiatives which do this.

Hi all,
The number of people who have participated in the Doodle poll is very
low.
Before I give up on the idea of having a community metrics and activities meeting, would anyone like to make a suggestion about how a meeting like this could be more interesting or useful?

I am attempting this one more time, with more advance notice and some alterations to the agenda.
Here is a Doodle poll with options for scheduling: https://doodle.com/poll/iycrgia2wqune63g.
I have created a page on Meta where people who want to include an agenda item can do so: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wik i/Community_Metrics_and_Activities_Meeting
This is an experiment. I hope that a meeting like this can facilitate
and
nurture international connections, and I hope that people will be interested enough to participate.
The meeting platform will be Zoom https://www.zoom.us/.
