The goal is to offload collaboration/discussion onto NextCloud and DLN Forums with the meetings becoming just a way to celebrate accomplishments and pull everyone together to sharpen focus for the coming week. Optional 30 minutes tops so you won’t be missing much. 
@mudlight48 also made a good observation (aftermeeting before last) that the meetings lack bandwidth, everyone should have room to get their thoughts in without forcing 2hr+ weeklies and trawling through meeting minutes. Big changes coming!
