> 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!
