Hi Team,
A very welcome from the DebConf'21!
The BoF for the Android team is scheduled for Friday, August 27, 2021, from 15:00 UTC to 15:45 UTC. [1]
Since both the teams have similar work areas and face similar blockers at
the time, it will be wise for all of us to meet once, hopefully, in person
next year! :D
And, as many of you have heard kotlin is in new, it would be nice to have a conversation. ;)
Please feel free to add agendas and suggestions for the BoF. [2]
Please reply to this thread to those who will be joining us, I'll send you
the link to jitsi room. Also, you can always find me and cdesai on the #debian-android-tools channel, and get a link from there! o/
I hope to see you all on August 27th :D
Thanks,
Samyak Jain
