I think this is most likely a chicken-and-egg thing. Have more sessions that aren't in the middle of the night in these timezones (which, by the way, cover more than East Asia), and you'll find more participants from those places. But to do that, they have to sign up, which they don't, because these sessions are usually at horribly inconvenient times for all of us, which could be fixed by having it in the early evening, which won't happen unless people sign up, which won't happen unless people don't think it's a US & EU thing, which won't happen unless... *sigh* Cheers, Craig (who is aware that occasionally a session that's somewhat handy for Australia or Asia has been held, but would like to see a lot more of them so that people in this part of the world don't continue to be left out and overlooked) _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l
