09:23:33 From Julien EL KHIATI to Everyone:
hi, is it possible to have the roadmap of the community meeting before the meeting ? and is it possible to ask question that we want to ask before the open office meeting somewhere so you can invite the accurate dev that can answer these questions ?
09:23:38 From lukas.vlcek to Everyone:
Great to see Segment replication is getting in. A few questions: 1) What is the typical use case that this new replication strategy would fit better than document replication. 2) Are there any benchmark results available?
09:23:38 From GSmith to Everyone:
January 17th is a public holiday here in the US (ML King day). Not suggesting or pushing to move it...not universally offered as day off in the US....just mentioning it for awareness.
09:24:01 From Nate B. to Everyone:
A good call out IMO.

09:28:19 From Terry Q to Everyone:
Hi, are there support EOL dates for the current OpenSearch versions - as asked on https://discuss.opendistrocommunity.dev/t/opensearch-eol/7029 ?
09:28:46 From Julien EL KHIATI to Everyone:
ok thanks for the community agenda ! didn't know that
09:28:57 From Alexander Schories to Everyone:
Me neither, tanks!
09:29:56 From lukas.vlcek to Everyone:
Questions about 3rd-party plugins. How much is https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-plugins open to host 3rd party plugins? Perhaps this would mean enabling external developers to maintain repos under https://github.com/opensearch-project
09:30:28 From Sokratis Papadopoulos to Everyone:
For Q&A: Just wanted to ping on https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch-Dashboards/issues/695 being an issue that was discussed in the past and had/have to move towards a decision.
09:37:55 From Hasan Asfoor to Everyone:
what is the expected lifespan of an OpenSearch version? 2 years for example?
09:39:27 From Terry Q to Everyone:
Thanks, that answers my question
09:42:47 From Daniel Doubrovkine to Everyone:
https://github.com/opensearch-project/opensearch-plugin-template-java is owned by a non Amazonian
09:44:57 From Sokratis Papadopoulos to Everyone:
thanks :)
09:47:18 From Hasan Asfoor to Everyone:
what about the support for opendistro?
09:47:33 From Ryan Paras to Everyone:
Is there a better way to track (and promote) the status of opensearch client libraries?
There are links to some of libraries here: https://opensearch.org/blog/community/2021/08/community-clients/

Example - opensearch-ruby hit 1.0.0 release and some folks whom should be in the know were not aware
09:47:44 From Alexander Schories to Everyone:
Appreciate the LTS idea, thanks.
