[Wikimania-l] Wikimania 2008 date & first IRC public meeting

[E]

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).
