Hey,
2 meetings would be fine with one at an alternate time.
Thanks, Samuel

Hi RhinosF1,
The Café previously has been held on weekday mornings (US Pacific time). The schedule was moved to its current time after a suggestion that more people from India would attend at the new time. The average attendance has been significantly higher at the new time slot, so I think that the current time is likely to remain constant. (The majority of the participants have been from Europe and North America, and we have had some participants from Africa and Asia, primarily India.) I've suggested having an additional time slot for the Café that is offset by 12 hours from the current time slot so that people from other time zones can more participate and so that there would be two Café meetups per month.
So far we are having one meetup per month, and I would want Bluerasberry to agree to to two meetups per month before moving ahead with that. Two possibilities are that Bluerasberry and I would not both attend every Café session but at least one of us would be present for each Café, and/or we would find someone who is experienced with the Café's format to host a meetup without us. How does that sound to you?

Maybe on a weekday morning?

Hello,
I am writing to invite anyone to join the next online meeting of
Wikimedia
Café on Saturday 25 April 2020 4:30 PM UTC. Details for joining are at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Caf%C3%A9 ----> (video room open at that time)
https://virginia.zoom.us/my/wikilgbt
The agenda for this month includes discussing maps on Wikipedia and Wikimedia community fundraising outside the Wikimedia Foundation.
Wikimedia Café is a modest, one-hour, monthly online meeting which for
the
past few months has had fewer than 10 attendees. At these meetings
anyone
can propose to discuss any topic of broad Wikimedia community
interest, as
if we all were able to meet in person over coffee. The meetings
themselves
are an experiment in small group Wikimedia community conversation with video chat, phone access options, and online shared notetaking. Please
see
WikiProject Remote Event Participation for more information about this general style of online event. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiProject_remote_event_participation
- Anyone interested in joining may do so.
- Anyone interested in reading notes of past meetings can find them
on
the meta page.
- If there is anyone who wants to get their ideas published in the
wiki
world, consider looking at how this Café works, because voice chat
with
notetaking could be a way to organize your own wiki community.
Thanks Pine for performing as host in this and thanks to anyone who
submits
topics for discussion or who is able to join.
