## Monthly updates
We have decided we'll try to do monthly progress updates. These will be published on the Co-op Cloud blog. It's a pretty loose format and we're basically just copy/pasta'ing things to a public pad during the month: ["This month in Co-op Cloud"](https://pad.autonomic.zone/YHKn4vHORmS6wjN1t2zi5A?both). Feel free to add your items to the monthly agenda and they will be included! All the previous posts can be seen [here](https://coopcloud.tech/blog/).
## Kite Flying Hours
The "Kite Flying Hour" is a weekly public moment where anyone can "drop by" into a Jitsi call and ask/do/propose whatever and meet some people who are currently working on the project. We haven't worked it all out but our process for now is the following.
Someone from Autonomic will volunteer to be present and talk about the project for an hour weekly from 15:00 CEST - 16:00 CEST. We announce the hour via our socials: A [pinned toot](https://social.coop/web/statuses/106528094828958420) on [`@coopcloud@social.coop`](https://social.coop/@coopcloud) and a post to the `#coopcloud:autonomic.zone` room.
Here is some invitation boilerplate which you can use:
> Hey folks, you're all warmly invited to the Co-op Cloud Kite Flying Hour at `$X_TIME` `$Y_TZ` `$Z_DATE` over in [meet.jit.si/CoopCloudKiteFlyingHour](https://meet.jit.si/CoopCloudKiteFlyingHour)!
>
> Inspired by exquisite childhood memories of [flying kites, eating popsicles and looking at clouds](https://norwichhistory.org/norwich-a-z-j-is-for-jigsaw/), it's an open hour to come hang out online and discuss/co-work/lurk/etc. around the [Co-op Cloud](https://coopcloud.tech/) project.

> There are no "stupid questions"! It's a space to inquire, be curious and have a good time and get to know each other.

> We take notes and doodle on [this collaboratively editable pad](https://pad.autonomic.zone/VtyrLUl9RWaJGgEDrncQUw?view). If you don't have time to attend, feel free to drop your questions and some contact details also, so we can get in touch. This is only the first Kite Flying Hour in a recurring series of Kite Flying Hours.

There are a number of "roles" such as "operator", "maintainer", "organiser" which we've tried to come up with to make it more clear how you can relate to the project and how you can find ways to be involved which suit your interests. If you don't fit one of these roles, that is fine.
We have [an irregular online check-in](/federation/organisers/#kite-flying-hours) for contributors of this project to let each other know what we're working on, how much time we've spent on it and how to coordinate further work.

# Kite-flying
The "Kite Flying Hour" is a weekly public moment where anyone can "drop by" into a Jitsi call and ask/do/propose whatever and meet some people who are currently working on the project.
We meet on Thursdays, alternating between 12 and 19 UTC each week. You can find out when the next call is by adding [our shared calendar](https://coopcloud.tech/ics/kite-flying.ics) to your calendar application, or look out for an announcement via [`@coopcloud@social.coop`](https://social.coop/@coopcloud) and a post to the `#coopcloud:autonomic.zone` room.
Participation in kite-flying can be compensated at €20/hour; see Co-op Cloud Federation [Resolution 024](/federation/resolutions/passed/024) for details.
We take notes and doodle on [this collaboratively editable pad](https://pad.autonomic.zone/VtyrLUl9RWaJGgEDrncQUw?view). If you don't have time to attend, feel free to drop your questions and some contact details also, so we can get in touch.
