- Channel strategy: Town Hall for regular sessions, CoP channel for technical discussions - Message templates following Caroline's book club patterns - Timing: Monday announcements, day-before reminders - Flexible attendance messaging throughout - Edge case handling: cancellations, topic changes, guest speakers - Success metrics: attendance, problem submissions, channel activity - Ready for team review and executive input Action item from 2026-06-18 working session
- Remove references to individuals (Caroline -> book club) - Change emoji from :a11y: to ♿ (exists in Slack) - Simplify Practice Channels section (remove examples and practice list) - Expand Regular Announcement template: - Add async participation details - Note problem submitters should attend if able - Add global calendar info - Remove 'just lurk' language - Day-before reminder now minimal thread reply - Session follow-up immediate, focused on action items (matches actual usage) - Remove Problem Submission Encouragement section (included in regular announcement) - Remove Artifact Release section (can be in regular announcement) - Update timing section to reflect changes
- Restructure async participation into sub-bullets (clearer separate ideas) - Update day-before example: Wednesday/Thursday (matches actual session day) - Remove 'Session Goes Long' section (not needed) - Remove 'Approval and Iteration' section (belongs in PR, not doc)
