Hello everyone,

The [OSRF Project Committee for Infrastructure](http://discourse.ros.org/t/announcing-the-osrf-project-committee-for-infrastructure/30679) is holding our first community meeting at 2023-05-17T15:00:00Z.

Our first meeting will have the following agenda, featuring @cottsay presenting on how changes in python packaging standards like [PEP 518](https://peps.python.org/pep-0518/) and related PEPs affect building python packages using colcon.

1. News and updates from the Infrastructure project (Infrastructure Project committers)
2. Standards-based Python packaging and colcon (Scott Logan, Infrastructure Project committer)
3. Q & A on the presentation and office hours

Hi,  
Can anyone attend? If yes, do we just show up or something needs to do in advance?

Fantastic questions! This, and future community meetings, will be open to everyone! There’s no need to RSVP.

There’s a participant limit in Google Meet of 100 people. If we ever actually hit that, we’ll figure out what to do for RSVPs after I’ve recovered from the shock.

Thanks @Katherine_Scott for posting the recording and thanks @cottsay for the excellent presentation.  
For those interested, the presentation itself begins at 04:22 and then it and the following discussion continues through the end of the meeting.

We’re going to start out doing Infrastructure community meetings every other month. The next meeting will be in mid-July.
