I didn't propose video calls as a full replacement for IRC meetings. Also, I've never said to use video calls every single day. These team video calls would be good to exist for different reasons. These video calls are going to promote Gentoo, our team efforts and could be useful to our users and those who want to contribute. As I said before, it is optional, a team maybe choose not to do any video call, a team could do *only one* video call and stop or a team could do frequent video calls. It's up to the team to decide.
