We are streaming engineers, transport nerds, codec people and curious newcomers building a real community around Media Over QUIC: sharing knowledge, showing what people are building, arguing about the market, and chasing the unsolved problems.

MoQ is the starting point, not the whole scope. Encoding, packaging, ABR, ad insertion, playback and QoE all get airtime too.

Volunteer-run and free. Venues are donated by Bay Area companies that care about the protocol. Not a users' group, not a standards committee. Just a good tech group.

What we are here to do

Build the community

Get the people working on MoQ in the same room on a regular cadence.

Share what we know

Deep dives on transport, packaging, latency and codecs, with the real details.

Cover the whole stack

Encoding, packaging, ABR, ads, playback and QoE, not just the transport layer.

Show what you are building

Demos over decks. Prototypes and half-finished experiments welcome.

Talk about the market

Where MoQ wins, who is adopting it, and what nobody has built yet.

Name the hard problems

Interop gaps, missing tooling, spec ambiguities, operational pain.

Find the solutions

Turn those into experiments and patches, then report back next meetup.

House rules

Working code beats slideware

Something runs on screen every night, even when it fails live.

Show your work

Talk about what you built and how it broke.

Beginners are the point

Explain the acronym the first time you use it.

Everything gets shared

Slides, repos and notes go out after each night.
