This (approximately) minimises the chance that people remember the meeting day/time. > b) What about picking the best time-in-the-week for me?

Even when we started with another plan, we normally fell into this one, with a 'least bad' day/time based on the team's timezones and other commitments. (That time isn't necessarily the one you discover by doing direct polling.) > c) What about continuing with time polls for each meeting? Aka every > potential meeting attendee has to fill a poll every month (or so). The busiest people are usually the least likely to fill out the polls on time. It's also common if there's a poll that the meeting date is announced too late. And people acquire new commitments after they initially filled out the poll anyway. > d) any other idea ? Not that is better than those already mentioned. -- Moray _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list [email protected] http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
