Hosting our weekly meeting
Original issue
I have been hosting our weekly calls – with some helpful substitutions – for a long time as the default host.
Let's come up with a plan where multiple people host. I'm happy to be one of a group of hosts.
@andrii-i has been documenting a guide for hosting, and I'm happy to meet with anyone who is interested in being a host. As a starting point, I would suggest every member of the @jupyterlab/jupyterlab-council consider it, but this also seems like a good way for someone who isn't yet on the council to get involved with the project.

I'm interested in co-hosting a weekly call, perhaps in a rotation. (I have access to the shared Zoom and Gmail accounts, and I've hosted calls before.)
Here's JupyterLab weekly call hosting guide draft: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18-9HQVu9MvL1l98B37VX-UMF6cEb-GW-5KqbEb-8SBs/edit?usp=sharing. Comments and feedback are welcomed. When done, the guide can be published as a new issue.
One issue we need to align on is how to provide access to Project Jupyter Zoom account for hosts. Based on discussion with @blink1073 last week, there is no apparent way to safely provide access to credentials to everyone/anyone but it's possible to do it for a defined group of people. I think it makes sense to restrict this group to JupyterLab council members and consider co-hosting for everyone else.
And I'm also interested in (co-)hosting a weekly call.
I can help with hosting, for now as a fallback and then on schedule from Q3.

I held back from a long time volunteering to host because I wanted to allow space for other people to step forward. But the call for new hosts has been out for a long time now, and it seems there is a real need for more hosts, so please feel free to add me as a volunteer host! :)
You should be able to log into Zoom now:
- [x] @JasonWeill (already had access)
- [x] @andrii-i (emailed an invitation)
- [x] @krassowski (already had access)
- [x] @gabalafou (emailed an invitation)
I updated the top-level comment of this issue and will pin it on the issues page. It has a list of upcoming meetings and I have made myself the backup host for all of them so that they are not left un-hosted but once a volunteer steps up, I may remove myself to allow someone else to be the backup.

I can host on June 28; updated the top comment.
You can put me down for the following two dates:
- 2023 08 09
- 2023 08 23
Unfortunately, my office situation makes it difficult for me to host in July.
I can host on July 19, updated the top comment accordingly
Added @tonyfast as host for July 5, by his request on the call today
do i need credentials to host the meeting?
The creds are in the 1Password; if you don't have 1Password access, someone who does have access might be able to log in and pass you the host privilege
I signed up to host next week, July 26.

Hi folks, I'm signed up to host tomorrow and two weeks after, but I think I need to back out. I recently relocated to Athens, and I'm discovering that connectivity is a bit trickier here. I have discovered that my apartment's Internet connection is not reliably fast enough; after working from home for a week, I have frequently experienced choppiness and lag in my Zoom and Google Meet calls. I recently joined a co-working space, but it closes at 7 PM Athens time, which is when the JupyterLab team call starts. I really don't want to host the call unless I have a top notch connection in a quiet space, and it's taking too much effort for me to find that in Athens, given the combination of factors that need to align.
Removed @gabalafou from the table for tomorrow and two weeks after.
Thanks, @andrii-i.
