Well, as someone who wants to really help, I have to say I can never be on this meeting if it's that day on that hour. I'm mostly on the train that specific hour and I can use my Mobistar Everywhere (which doesn't properly work in Ubuntu, so I need Windows for that, but I'm working on it!), but it will lag certainly.
The problem is we can never choose a perfect moment. There will always be people who will not be able to attend it, so maybe two sessions? Every week, but once on for example a Wednesday, and the other times on Sunday.

Some idea's: - Keeping direction by appointing a meeting leader & a secretary. - Allowing people to edit the agenda for the meeting on a wiki, and sticking to that agenda while the meeting is in progress. - The meeting leader can put the agenda-topic in the IRC channel's topic to keep us from side tracking. > Some ideas: > -organize a national Ubuntu-day on or around the release of Windows 7(profit > the media attention for operating systems) > -start an ubuntu-be help forum and news pages.(because the dutch forum is > becoming a fight-arena) > > gd > > Op zaterdag 14 maart 2009 23:03, schreef Jan Claeys: > > Hello all, > > > > It seems like Ubuntu-be has fallen asleep a bit... > > > > > > I would like to see a bit more activity on this list and inside > > ubuntu-be as a community in general: > > > > * More reporting on what happens locally (also things that happen > > inside LUGs etc.).
