Every month the PyMC developers meet virtually to talk about a recent or particularly interesting article. Threads tagged under this category or meant for discussion about the upcoming topic/paper. We thought we would open the discussions to the wider PyMC3 community of users – and people generally interested in modeling, probabilistic programming, and all things Bayesian.

- A thread should be made to decide on the paper for the following month, and when to have the call.

- Each month a new thread should be made for preliminary discussion and conversation about next months paper.
