Let's continue with today's meeting (It is a standard timeslot for The Good Docs Project). I don't think we can find a timeslot of Africa/Europe/Americas/India/Australia that will work for all. Once Nelson has been introduced to the OSGeoLive team, I can imagine him attending the standard OSGeoLive meeting timeslot (which is 5am for me at the moment and I likely won't attend). Nelson, for your information, Vicky has been a dynamo contributor to docs (and translation) in the past and is a good person to know and team up with.
