Just a reminder about today's office hours with Sue Gardner.  Just as a
note, we're planning alternating the Friday 22:30 UTC office hours with
Thursday 16:00 UTC, which is much easier on our European participants.

As a result of the success of the Strategy planning office hours and the
recent meet the board presentation on the #wikimedia channel on IRC,
we've decided to do regular office hours featuring a Wikimedia
Foundation staff member.

And to kick things off, this Friday, September 25, 2009, between 15:30
and 16:30 PDT (UTC 22:30 to 23:30), Sue Gardner, the Wikimedia
Foundation's Executive Director, will be online to answer your questions
and talk about her role in the Foundation and plans for the future.

The IRC channel that will be hosting Sue's conversation, and all future
WMF staff office hours, will be #wikimedia-office on the Freenode
network.  If you do not have an IRC client, you can always access
Freenode by going to http://webchat.freenode.net/, typing in the
nickname of your choice and choosing wikimedia-office as the channel.
You may be prompted to click through a security warning. It's fine.

2009-09-25 Thread effe iets anders
Thanks for considering Europeans too. However, isn't something like
1800/1900 UTC not more convenient? (since at 1600 UTC, especially during
winter, lots of people will be at work/school?) I guess that also works
better for staff, with regards to getting up early ;-)

Best,

Lodewijk

I agree. Early evening is probably the most convenient time, in any time zone.
