<p class="MsoNormal">I think this is a great idea (or should I say - set of ideas) which goes beyond making the weekly meeting work for us APAC peeps. I think with this approach we will likely achieve better responsiveness and flexibility overall. I look forward
to trying this out. Thank you Julia. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Last week the discussion came up of splitting the ironic meeting to<br>
alternate time zones as we have increasing numbers of contributors in<br>
the Asia/Pacific areas of the world[0]. With that discussion, an<br>
additional interesting question came up posing the question of<br>
shifting to the mailing list instead of our present IRC meeting[1]?<br>
<br>
It is definitely an interesting idea, one that I'm personally keen on<br>
because of time zones and daylight savings time.<br>
<br>
I think before we do this, we should collect thoughts and also try to<br>
determine how we would pull this off so we don't forget the weekly<br>
checkpoint that the meeting serves. I think we need to do something,<br>
so I guess now is a good time to provide input into what everyone<br>
thinks would be best for the project and facilitating the weekly<br>
check-in.<br>
<br>
What I think might work:<br>
<br>
By EOD UTC Monday:<br>
<br>
* Listed primary effort participants will be expected to update the<br>
whiteboard[2] weekly before EOD Monday UTC<br>
* Contributors propose patches to the whiteboard that they believe<br>
would be important for reviewers to examine this coming week.<br>
* PTL or designee sends weekly email to the mailing list to start an<br>
update thread shortly after EOD Monday UTC or early Tuesday UTC.<br>
** Additional updates, questions, and topical discussion (new<br>
features, RFEs) would ideally be wrapped up by EOD UTC Tuesday.<br>
<br>
With that, I think we would also need to go ahead and begin having<br>
"office hours" as during the week we generally know some ironic<br>
contributors will be in IRC and able to respond to questions. I think<br>
this would initially consist of our meeting time and perhaps the other<br>
time that seems to be most friendly to the contributors int he<br>
Asia/Pacific area[3].<br>
<br>
Thoughts/ideas/suggestions welcome!<br>
