# Clojure Community Check-In
A space to share how we’re doing
The world is going through changes: in programming, technology, work, and in specific countries and regions, each with its own form of trouble, hope, or confusion.
People in Clojure communities, like elsewhere, are finding their way through it, sometimes with questions and sometimes with a sense of being alone in it.
We’d like to create a space for people to simply show up and share what’s on their mind.
## Date and Time
- Saturday, April 25th
- a few time slots during the day
Edit: here are the two time slots:
[https://v2.clojureverse.org/t/clojure-community-check-in-part-i/](https://v2.clojureverse.org/t/clojure-community-check-in-part-i/)
[https://v2.clojureverse.org/t/clojure-community-check-in-part-ii/](https://v2.clojureverse.org/t/clojure-community-check-in-part-ii/)
## Format
We’ll have a few self-contained ~~1-hour~~ (edit:) 90-minute sessions across different time zones. Each session will have 5 short stories by participants (5 minutes each), followed by an open conversation. Stories are informal – no slides required.
## Participating
**Zoom** : [Link](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86038773965?pwd=N1paYmJpQ3B5eHpTOTlycUN2VXFDdz09)
**Chat** : [#community-check-in](https://clojurians.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/585014-community-check-in) at the [Zulip chat](https://scicloj.github.io/docs/community/chat/) (requires login)
## Speaking
Please reach out: [contact](https://scicloj.github.io/docs/community/contact/).
We want to hear from you: who are you, what are you working on, and what’s on your mind lately?
Any voice is welcome – whether you’re part of an online group, a local meetup, a consultancy, a startup, an active chat channel, or just here as yourself. We’d appreciate talking not only about technical stuff, but also about how life looks on your end nowadays.
## Recording
Some parts of the meetings will be recorded and shared internally in the Zulip chat. We may share some parts publicly on YouTube if speakers choose to.

_The point is mostly to not be alone – and maybe to find some ways to support each other._

Thanks for organizing this, I’m really curious to hear the stories people will bring and find out what they are experiencing at this time.

Hello! @timothypratley @syungb and I are working on preparing this event.
We created [a registration form](https://forms.gle/kP1i33k2K92gASs47) with two time slots, hoping to cover wide range of timezones. Please sign up 🙏 🍇

For those who are joining the event and planning to share their perspective, @syungb is suggesting a few guiding questions here, in case you find that useful:

Everyone who wants to attend either session should register? It’s not just for people who want to share a story?
And how folks who want to share a story indicate that, so you can schedule the limited presentation slots?
I’m interested to hear people’s stories etc, so I registered for Saturday (and hopefully I will actually be available at that time).

Hello @seancorfield!
Many thanks for these clarifying questions.
No need to register, you can simply join through the Zoom link. If anyone wishes to share anything, they can reach out: [contact](https://scicloj.github.io/docs/community/contact/) . But for this time, the schedule is relatively full, so we may not have time for everybody.
See you 🙏
