Ok, here's a proposal since last week's attendance while low (we got
far)
Do we rotate between 15:00 and 18:00 UTC on a weekly basis? As the
project grows, this will enable *more* people from around the world to
attend. I don't expect everyone to attend every meeting, but with a
varying timescale, it can be better
Thoughts?
And to not confuse folk, we could publish a calendar (webcal), and you
can import it into your favourite webcal application (Evolution has good
support for this; there are a few webcalendar things, kiko?, and i think
iCal defintely supports it if you use OS X, and if you're using Windows,
I'm sure there are solutions, like Sunbird (cross-platform) :P)

Having a rotating schedule like that might create a little confusion,
but the best way to find out would be to try it for a while. If it
works, we keep it, if it fails, we find an alternative. I'm sure it
won't do any harm to give it a shot.
Either way, creating a calendar doesn't seem like a bad idea. There is
already a calendar at
http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/schedule/fedora-project.ics. Can
we append to that? The FESCO and FDSCO meetings are already on it.

Heh. Since I can never figure out where that is...
You should be able to add to that by checking out the web module in CVS.
I think.

Mid afternoons, say 3pm (Eastern US). Any day but Thursday.

I agree with the idea of rotating times, or at least trying it. Perhaps
we could also rotate days? Perhaps we could have one meeting time be
held on Thursdays, as it is now, and the other on, say, Mondays? This
would create an uneven amount of time between meetings, but I don't see
that as being a big problem. With the split in times, we could almost
classify the two meeting times differently, thereby making it more like
we have two marketing meetings, each held once every other week. Just a
thought. Any other opinions or ideas?

We could have timezone-based working groups.
With the alternating days, there are going to be people who never make
one or the other of the alternating meetings. There will be some who
make all the meetings, regardless of the time.
Rather than having most of the group always be one week out of the loop,
we could divide the group by timezones, and group task assignments by
those individuals.
The floaters, who go to both meetings, can carry useful threads across
the two meetings.
I've no idea if this is a good idea, I'm just putting it out there as it
occurred to me. :)
