In my experience, it works the other way round: scheduled meetings help
create the critical mass necessary to make it worthwhile for people to
hang out on IRC... I know of a channel that was pretty active while they
had weekly meetings, and pretty much died once they stopped.

Of course this only works if you actually have an agenda of things to
discuss at the meetings :-)

I'll try to be there, just not this Tuesday.

Hmm, no overwhelming interest.

Short-term: let's just make a conscious effort to idle on IRC more
often.  Go to:
  http://lilypond.org/contact.html
scroll down, pick an irc name, then join the chat.  It's all in
your web browser.


If there's some number of developers hanging around IRC (and maybe
even chatting), then I'll try to organize a specific time.

Cheers,

I'd like to.  Let's find a window of time for this.

I'd go for typing only.

I'd be in, although 19:00UTC on a weekday does not really work for me.

developer IRC or skype chat

2011-06-07 Thread Graham Percival
Anybody interested in setting up a weekly chat?  Either IRC or
skype or some other chat protocol.

The idea is that we'd pick some time (say, 19:00 UTC on Tuesdays),
then whoever wanted to hang out could come by.  Or, if there's
enough interested (particularly from people in time zones which
don't work well with 19:00 UTC), we could have two chats at
different times.


I have a bias against voice chat since I'm much better at typing
than speaking, but if there's more interest in the "human touch"
of speech, I'm still game.

Cheers,
- Graham
