Although that did bring me to the concern Ed raised on meta: why bother
with IRC anyway if the meeting are becoming almost asynchronous?
Although I do see the merits of the Sunday time: Lodewijk can only do
Sunday, and since it's in the middle / right after a London meetup it might
be a more
As we (Bristol) have no voice on IRC chat channel now – we have a question
Do you require us to attend tomorrow night’s judging session? If there is one,

We will have a meeting tomorrow, but you're not required to attend. You

I know that I'm not bidding this year, so this may be none of my business,
but we encountered a similar problem when we bid all the way back for 2009.
Might I suggest that a presentation model which requires people from
many timezones to be present at one time might no longer be a suitable
method
Hence the suggestion that this shall be the last time Wikimania bids happen
this way. Next year, not just the way of organising synchronous meetings,
but the entire method of choosing a location and organising team should be
changed.
IRC isn't the only thing that's become a bit too retro.

Perhaps we can think outside of the box, and have the bidding teams
announce the time that they'll have the presentation, and then it's up to
the jury to come along if they can make it ;-)
The way we do things probably makes sense for an organisation like the
International Olympic Committee or
How would you like to see the method changed? There are certainly a lot of
options we could look at. We should remember that any process as benefits
and limitations.
