DCAT might have an image/branding issue when the goal is to involve new people or beginning repository managers here. As a solution, this "type" of DCAT call can be communicated/marketed as "Community Forum" calls. Could still be mentioned as "DCAT" presents, but it should be clear that you shouldn't consider yourself an "advisor" in order to attend/benefit from this..

Tim Donohue suggested that this group could create a collection of brief videos on topics of interest.  These videos could be used as training materials and to spark discussion among community members.
