tl;dr: **Q “Why don’t we have a dedicated quill stream, and power through these issues in a focussed session?”** * * * Towards the end of a busy [live stream](https://www.youtube.com/live/5CbKCpCRdAg) today, a question popped up that I think we were all a little to spaced out to dive into, so I figured I’d bring it up here! Context: The live stream slot on Thursday at 20:00 UK / 3 PM ET / 12 PM PT has been used recently to process some of the issues tagged ‘needs discussion’ on our repos. This has worked well, and resulted in some great explanations, discussions, actions, conclusions and even the odd nerd-snipe. 🏹 When we have time left at the end of planned discussion, we break things up with a roll of the virtual dice and pick a semi-random issue or pr to discuss or triage. When a [quill](https://github.com/anchore/quill) issue came up, a few of us collectively had our own 💡 moment. We’d all seen a quill issue or pr that needed some eyeballs or TLC. **Q “Why don’t we have a dedicated quill stream, and power through these issues in a focussed session?”** Personally, I’d love to, especially if I can help test things on my M-series Mac that others on the team can’t easily replicate with their setups. There’s at least a couple of options here, and I’m fine with whatever the team wants. 1. Put up guard rails on the existing stream, and dedicate it to quill or whichever tool we think needs focus. 2. Do a separate stream dedicated to a tool. Either is fine by me, if we can find an agreeable time. I’m always up for a chat, stream and learning session. 😃 _(in moderation)_ I do appreciate most of the users and potential audience are probably more interested in Syft & Grype discussions. So maybe a focus session on that instead, or as well as. Obviously we need to be mindful of everyone’s other tasks, and balance things. ⚖ It’s also a chunk of time to be permanently sat at the desk. It’s also work that needs to be done at some point. 🤷‍♂️ ---

I think it would be interesting to tweak the format into: - discuss any discussion-needed issue from any repo - then focus on one repo and enter a triage session (instead of from all repos)… changing the repo we are triaging week by week. We might not have enough issues in all repos to be able to do this (we might move back to the core syft and grype repos). ---

I agree with @wagoodman – we should probably continue to start with `needs-discussion` issues/PRs. We should make sure to spread the love around the various projects, though, so making sure to focus on `scan-action`, `sbom-action`, `quill`, etc. for one week during any remaining time seems to make sense ---

Great plan. I guess it’s worth mentioning the ‘rotation’ of which project we’re going to do in any ‘spare’ time in the announcement, so people know in advance and can prepare if they need to 👍 Thanks for the suggestions. I love that we’re slowly refining this. Obviously I’m always happy to do one-off random streams if the need takes anyone 😃
