Calling all Lurkers !

[robert_weir@us.ibm.com]

At our last TC call the question of
meeting times came up.  We currently have our ODF TC calls on Mondays
at 10am EDT (1400 GMT).  This time is good for me in Boston, and the
Sun StarOffice team in Hamburg, but is inconvenient for Google calling
in from California (7am) and the teams calling in from Beijing (10pm).
 And it has been noted that for Australia and New Zealand, where ODF
is popular, our meeting time corresponds to 2am.  That probably explains
why no one from that region us on our calls.

If there is sufficient interest, we're
willing to change the meeting time, or even adopt a schedule where we alternate
meeting times to accommodate a wider range of participants.   But
before we commit to anything, we'd like to get a better sense of of whether
there is anyone who would like to participate on the ODF TC calls, but
is unable currently because of the meeting time.  

So, if you would likely join the TC
call, if held at a different time, please respond to this note, or send
an email to me directly.

Thanks!

-Rob
