well that time slot is not too convenient for the APAC area. 1:00 AM in
China, 2:00 AM in Japan, 3:00 AM in East-Australia and 5:00 AM in New
Zealand.
well, we had a public vote at
http://www.doodle.com/participation.html?pollId=5p52mbss52maguib
and not so many people from this area voted. It's not easy to fit all
needs, but at least people need to vote and show their interest.
Well among 13 people who voted there are 2 living in China (Dong
Xiaohong and me), 1 in Japan (Kobayashi-san) and Graham is AFAIR from
New Zealand. That' about 30%. Well, Graham doesn't seem to care about
making calls in the middle of the night. Voting for majorities always
poses the risk to exclude minorities. Due to the large number of time
zones from U.S. West Coast to New Zealand a global phone conference will
never work. Maybe it's better to have some regional sub-conferences.
It's the same with Alexandro mentioning dialing in from several
countries is not possible, therefore we need free dialin numbers
worldwide. Apart from the money question, if I don't hear anything
from these people, it's hard to take them into consideration :|
I can recommend Jajah (http://jajah.com/) a Internet calling service. To
join such a conference I would e.g. dial in to the German access point
for less than 3 Euro-cent per minute.
So, please spread the word and make everyone who might be interested
aware!
There's indeed a large number of long-term contributers on the addressed
mailing lists. Would be interesting to get some of their points why they
do not consider attending the phone conference.
How can one attend when its country is not listed? :)
Kind regards
Sophie
