As I assume it to be common sense, confcalls not beeing the way to get community wide decisions. What about building local/timezone based groups holding conf calls at a time convenient to their members? Afterwards sharing the results on the mailing lists where people can read them at any convenient moment? >Might I suggest That we move the times earlier in the day to around >1200-1400 GMT. >http://www.wheatland.com.au/sites/default/files/files/BestTimeCalling.PNG >As far as I can see this would exclude the least number of people >around the world from attending the calls. Where is the timezone nobody would be excluded? >What do others think? See above. Another fact to consider: many people are excluded simply by not beeing capable to follow nor participate a spoken english coversation at telephone but can do so writing english or persoally present. My conclusion: Conf calls can complete the daily community work but should not be a in any way main part of it. >Thanks, my pleasure :o)) Gruß/regards -- Friedrich Libreoffice-Box http://libreofficebox.org/ LibreOffice and more on CD/DVD images (german version already started) -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
