# Emacs Research Group, Season Zero: What we did together with Emacs in 2 hours a week for a year

The four of us met at EmacsConf 2020, and joined together around a
common interest in Emacs and research.  Since then, we have convened as
the Emacs Research Group for weekly meetings.  During these meetings, we
took notes collaboratively, using a ‘conflict-free replicated data type’
package (crdt.el); at the end of each session, we debriefed using a
template that we call a Project Action Review (PAR).  As as a
meta-review of our sessions, every six weeks we prepared a Causal
Layered Analysis (CLA), which gave us a different perspective on what we
had done.  We reflected further on our experiences and methods, linking
our CLA to plans and design patterns.  As a formal research output, we
contributed a write-up of these matters to a joint paper which we
presented at the Pattern Languages of Programs Conference (PLoP 2021).
The paper included an interactive workshop, in which we explored roles
in real-time problem solving and collaboration.

In our short talk we share information about these methods, making a
case for other people getting together and creating their own small
research communities similar to ours.
