<freeside> meanwhile are we going to meet weekly or what?
<csm> weekly I think should be the minimum
<csm> freeside has proposed weekly meetings
<freeside> ok, i'd be happy to meet weekly on irc
<MarkK> me too
<csm> seconded
<grumpy> I think it should be more often, at least initially
<csm> votes?
<Julian> I propose to meet _at least_ weekly.
<csm> second proposal
<MarkK> I also believe we should be able to call inter-mediate meetings, if the need arises
<csm> I could/do/will second that one too
<csm> hold on a sec
<csm> so if I read this right
<freeside> interim meetings coul dbe called with 24 hours notice on the mailing list
<csm> we have a proposal to meet *at least* weekly
<MarkK> aye to that proposal
<Julian> freeside: seconded
<csm> and additional meetings can be called with 24 hours notice
<csm> so weekly + 24?
<grumpy> yeah, that sounds good to me.
<Julian> seconded
<MarkK> seconded
<csm> votes?
<grumpy> aye
<freeside> ayup
<Julian> yes
<csm> aye
<csm> okay
<csm> the day for the scheduled weekly
<csm> saturday or sunday?
<grumpy> Sundays actually work better for me.
<csm> I will tell you now that I often have to travel on sunday
<csm> this time otmorrow I will be en-route to NYC
<grumpy> I can do saturdays, if I plan ahead
<csm> and that's typical
<grumpy> I can also do weekdays
<grumpy> other opinions?
<Julian> We could choose Sat, and fall back on Sun if necessary.
<csm> weekdays are a problem for me... I am an instructor
<grumpy> true
<csm> and since some of you are in europe that makes it tough
<csm> we'd be late at night for those guys
<grumpy> Well, it is evening for them
<Julian> Well, the time difference between us is about 7h, right?
<grumpy> ok, saturdays, unless moved?
<Julian> grumpy: seconded
<MarkK> seconded
<freeside> at this time, particularly?
<csm> saturdays I just need to know the time
<grumpy> it would be slightly better for me for an hour earlier
<Julian> Anything between 10:00 and 22:00 UTC would be fine for me.
<csm> and for me
<freeside> okay, 2pm eastern then
<Julian> That's 19:00 UTC.
<freeside> with a note to keep julian waiting by an hour when we switch to daylight savings
<grumpy> so, 19:00 UTC Saturdays, until DST takes over, and then it is either 18:00 or 20:00?
<grumpy> Well, I think we can deal with DST when we get to that point.
<csm> okay... well I am fine with 1900 UTC
<grumpy> mostion: meetings at 19:00 UTC saturdays or with 24hr notice
<grumpy> motion even
<csm> seconded
<grumpy> votes?
<csm> aye
<MarkK> seconded
<grumpy> aye
<Julian> yes
<freeside> aye
<csm> unanimous
