Hi David,

I wouldn't mind a synchronous option (regular TCC meeting) and an
asynchronous option. Has the group ever tried using a Sakai discussion
board, or OAE, or Piazza or something to see how well that would work? Is
there anything that works in the Jira/Confluence ecosystem?

I'm game for trying. I don't see how it could hurt. Worst case is that
folks don't participate or find it useful and then we drop it.

Thanks,
Neal
