Hi all,
I haven't been able to make it to any of the past IRC chat in any kind
of reasonable way for the past weeks and I regret it. However, I have
to say that the time of the chat is simply extremely uncool for anyone
in my part of the world doing this as a volunteer and having both a
job and a family (or I think any of both).
I have a suggestion to make.
While I do believe that the chat should be as inclusive as possible, I
am wondering if we could not schedule two different times which would
better suit some or the other participants.
This could be done on a rotation basis, for example one Friday we'd
make sure the time is convenient for X,Y and Z, while the next it
might be more convenient for A,B and C. The idea would be to ensure
that everyone can really participate at least twice a month and might
make it to the other chats but does not feel like they're missing out
every single time.
Am I the only one in this situation? Would looking for a compromise be
an idea you would consider exploring?
Best,
Delphine

Hi again
We're looking forward to our next IRC chat this Friday 17rd December at 1500 UTC.
The three items we would like to discuss this week are
1) Encouraging participation on the blog and wiki, following up from the discussion and suggestions from 3rd December. For example, should we reflect the discussion this week on internal-l sparked by the emails from Milos and Lodewijk?
2) One-on-one interviews. We've already completed more than half a dozen interviews, with more planned and scheduled. How are the interviews going, and who else shall we seek out?
3) Any housekeeping items to prepare for our meeting in person in Frankfurt at the end of January.
As usual, the meeting will be held on irc.freenode.net in #wikimedia-roles. If you don't have a favorite IRC client, by now, you can join via http://webchat.freenode.net/
Please can you let us know whether or not you will join us?
Cheers,
Arne, Austin & Jon

Hi,
Did we make any progress on the next blog post to be published, since our
last IRC meeting?
Should Jon/Arne/Austin just pick one from the ones already scheduled[1] on
the wiki? Can we help in any way?
Best regards,
Bence
