Perhaps a weekly "meeting" is too often.
Perhaps it would be good to have all of...

- A regular "meeting", maybe biweekly or even monthly
- A more frequent (weekly?) time slot when core developers are encouraged
  to be around, to bounce ideas off of each other and respond to questions
  and ideas from others.
- Developers and especially gatekeepers hanging around on a fairly regular
  basis, whenever they're available (we already have this).
