If we decide on text chat, IRC might actually be the most sensible option, since that's where most Wikimedia text chats are held. On Apr 9, 2012 2:04 AM, "Butch Bustria" butch@wikimedia.org.ph wrote:
Hello All,
As an offshoot of the other email thread, I recommend we start the ball rolling by having a common meeting. Relying on Wikimania and other conferences may not be good enough.
So lets start this discussion.
Who (Chapters) will participate? You can bring as much participants as you want in a room per chapter. When is the most common date and time? Saturday maybe a good choice and afternoon of UTC+8 is common amongst us. Date can be discussed further . What mode of live communication (no physical meeting)? Phone? Phone+Web? Skype? WebEx? TextChat like chatroll.com? What set of topics to discuss ? Since its the first wide "getting to know you" conference we will setup, as much as possible we should discuss our chapter's strengths, challenges, projects in the pipeline as well as common projects we can cooperate like say Wikidata Infobox, Professionalization, etc. Lets minimize or no politics. How long? Where ? In our own common areas like a rented conference room or classroom or possibly a garage.
