Hi everyone! I’m posting our agenda for the Office Hour tomorrow at 11 AM Pacific. If you have a specific question about something you are actively working on or trying to solve, please ask it in #airbyte-help: that’s your best bet for getting not just CAT but the whole community to help you out. Agenda for 01 March 2023: • Monorepo Update: ◦ code freeze was extended by one day, but it’s all good to go as of 1 March ◦ Changes to how platform PRs are handled including the new mirror functionality • Community Team Updates: ◦ Mal Hancock started on Monday – we’ll have her on in the next couple of weeks to introduce her to the community and vice versa ◦ @Karen (Airbyte) is on leave starting next week; who’s her backup, and how do you follow up while she’s out • Application and Development Changes: ◦ Sunset of Kustomize and the decision to go with Helm ◦ Other questions around these sorts of changes Got a question you want to ask ahead of time, or something you want more information on? Feel free to leave a threaded comment on this post, and we’ll do our best to answer it. As a reminder, we want as many people as possible to be able to ask questions and communicate with us about what’s happening with the Community, with Open Source, and with the Community Assistance Team. If you’re looking for an update on a PR or an Issue you’ve filed, this is a good place and time to ask about those, to keep them separate from the Help channel! We’re trying to assist as many people as possible as quickly as possible, and that sometimes means that individual responses can be delayed. If you have a specific question about something you are actively working on or trying to solve, please ask it in #airbyte-help: that’s your best bet for getting not just CAT but the whole community to help you out.

Hi can’t join, will it be recorded ? Some interesting topics

I’ll see what I can do! I don’t think Huddle defaults to recording, but I will see if we can find another solution.

Hey Jerri, I have read that airbyte acquired grouparoo project from previous year so any updates about that? Will airbyte do reverse ETL beside its ETL soon?

We talked a little about this with @Carolina Buckler but basically we brought the grouparoo folks in last year to help us build our team — team growth was the focus of 2022 — so that this year we would have an engineering org ready and able to take on reverse ETL as a priority. Reverse ETL is definitely on our roadmap, and we want to make sure it gets done well and is reliable for any connector that needs or wants to take advantage of the functionality. The grouparoo team has become an integral part of our current Engineering, Product, and Design group and has helped us become the team that’s ready to take on the challenges that will make us an industry-leading company. TL;DR: grouparoo? We don’t know them. Airbyte is going to crush Reverse ETL in 2023.

And what are the news regarding schema evolution feature ? Didn’t see any communication about this

Let me check with the EPD team about this, and get back to you @lucien. Thanks.
