[Foundation-l] Fwd: IRC meeting to discuss fundraiser

From: Philippe Beaudette <pbeaudette(a)wikimedia.org> Date: August 9, 2010 8:22:49 PM PDT To: Wikimedia Foundation Mailing List <foundation-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org Subject: IRC meeting to discuss fundraiser Hi all, I'd like to have a meeting on IRC this week to discuss the 2010-2011 annual appeal/fundraiser. This will be an "anyone is welcome" type meeting, open to the broad community. During this, Zack Exley and I will take you through our inital thoughts about the fundraiser and its organization, and ask you to join us in a discussion about the (massive) role of volunteers and chapters in this year's fundraiser. Because of the vagaries of time zones, scheduling live meetings is hard. So, we'll have a couple of potential times, and we'll log and post the meeting for anyone who wasn't able to make it. The meetings will be held Thursday, 12 August at 23:00 UTC (16:00 PDT) and Friday, 13 August at 16:30 UTC (09:30 PDT) in the #wikimedia-fundraising channel on the freenode network on IRC (irc://irc.freenode.net/wikimedia-fundraising ). You can access this using freenode's webclient, which is available at http://webchat.freenode.net/ or by using your favorite IRC client. Hope to see you there!
