Those changes still makes it 1am for myself here in Brisbane, Australia (AEST - UTC+10). I am part of the online team so I really would like to attend.
Although my IRC client will be idling throughout the meeting in both Wikimania channels, I'd still like to be there as events unfold.
Is there any more possible changes to times? I'd be able to attend up to 11.30pm (AEST - UTC+10), where I would be forced to sleep (due to work on the same day).

IDear all,
It is going to be pretty late in the night for most of the Asians. ( 11:30 PM IST ) Wouldn't it be possible to come to a consensus via discussion so that most of us would be able to comfortably attend the meeting? Just a thought.
We held the last bidding meeting at 15:00 UTC, which seemed to work for almost everyone in the world. I think it would suck for Alaska, Hawaii and Fiji--but the rest...
It's not so hot for Australia; nor even for Japan & San Francisco. SJ
Not so hot but manageable for all of them. Yes, it's early for San Francisco...we'll have to learn to wake up real early :)

Yes, this is true -- 15:00UTC might be better than 16:00 UTC:
- 11pm Taipei
- 5:00 pm Cairo
- 7:00 am SF
- 10:00 am Boston
- 4:00 pm Frankfurt
- 3:00 pm London
- 8:30 pm Dehli
- midnight Tokyo
- 6:00 am Anchorage ;)
As for getting up early for IRC meetings -- welcome to the west coast! ;)
