I still have an issue about the scheduling. This is a of course a meeting supposed to span over several time zones, in China it will be 9pm, 10pm in Japan, 11pm in Australia and even Saturday 1am in New Zealand. Friday night is the night that many people use to enjoy themselves after a hard weeks work, going to bars and restaurants, meeting with family and friends. A lot of others, who live and work apart from their families during the week, are on the road to travel home. Hence, I think it's tough for those in the APAC timezones to attend a bi-weekly meeting on Friday night. Oh. I guess I never thought of that :-) (for me, enjoying myself with friends is, uhm, being at the computer on IRC or IM). Yes indeed, IRC or IM are great ways to communicate with people all over the globe, however for me it's far away from being a method to socialize, as I can not see the faces nor hear the voices of my friends. Would Thursday (or some other day earlier in the week) be better for you and others in the region? Yes, Thursday is much better, earlier in the week would be a problem for both of us, as we do frequently join calls at some TCs at OASIS. In general it should be considered, that communication over several time zones is worst for people living in the APAC area by default. I do not like it, but still can manage it, as I'm an expat. For locals who have kids, it's certainly much harder. We shouldn't put contributers into situations, where they have to decide between family and OOo, as OOo will surely lose this choice in most cases.
