Community Calls#
On the first Tuesday of every month, the Dataverse Project hosts a Zoom call to discuss upcoming releases, development contributions from the community, and other topics relevant to our community. All are welcome to attend! Please see our planning doc for a preview of what might be ahead. Some calls are recorded and available on DataverseTV.

Agenda
Please check the notes in the “Call Notes and Recordings” section below to see previous and scheduled topics.
For a long time the agenda has been the following:
IQSS Updates
GDCC Updates
Community Questions
That said, we are experimenting with new formats. Why not invite anyone who called in to give updates? If there’s a speaker, let them talk first. This is your call. What’s working? What isn’t? Your feedback is very welcome!
If you would like to present something or lead a discussion, please get in touch via the mailing list or chat.
Before each call, you can add your topic and your name under the “Community Discussion” section of the call’s notes document.
