## Minutes
* How did the hack week go?
* Pretty well, for first year! Good `__init__` for the hack week.
* Hack time was not what was expected. Discussion seemed to fizzle out near the end sometimes.
* Less actual coding than expected.
* Not much volunteering for
* Maybe devote a day to a package. Morning presentations/tutorials and afternoon activities.
* Maybe make it more like a research software engineering summer school (git/GitHub, using Python, docs in Python, testing in Python)
* Limited in what to achieve with a virtual meeting
* Are we trying to replace PlasmaPy workshops with Hack Weeks?
* We don't have capacity to do both right now
* Astro Hack Week is separate from Astropy
* Time zones...
* We're posting videos, at least
* Selective sessions that are for time zones that are on different continents
* Nick should make simulation working group one of the biggest priorities for the rest of the year
* Attempting to use ZenHub for `plasmapy.dispersion`
