[EMOXG] phone meeting: an exercise in squaring circles...!

Dear all,

thanks to the 12 people who have filled in their availability in the 
Doodle form:
http://www.doodle.ch/fi2xcczexsmiakf6

As expected, there is no single date/time where everybody is available; 
and, also as expected, there is a clear discrepancy between European and 
non-European participants. Basically the 06:00 UTC slot is out of the 
question for people in Europe; the 15:00 UTC slot is out of the question 
for people outside Europe. The 07:00 UTC slot is acceptable to people 
outside Europe but only to some of the people in Europe (the early 
risers, I guess :-)

The most suitable day apparently is Wednesday.

So I suggest we follow an alternating scheme in the future: 15:00 UTC in 
December, 07:00 UTC in January, 15:00 UTC in February, 07:00 UTC in 
March, etc. This way, people have the chance to be present at least in 
every other meeting.

Consequence: people must read the minutes, and the minutes therefore 
must be written well.


So I would like to schedule the first phone meeting of this new group for
 *Wednesday, 19 December, 15:00 UTC*
Contact details and an agenda will follow.


Best wishes,
Marc
