[Ubuntu-be] Ubuntu-be re-activation / IRC meeting

[Matthew Deboysere]

Well, as someone who wants to really help, I have to say I can never be on
this meeting if it's that day on that hour. I'm mostly on the train that
specific hour and I can use my Mobistar Everywhere (which doesn't properly
work in Ubuntu, so I need Windows for that, but I'm working on it!), but it
will lag certainly. 

 

The problem is we can never choose a perfect moment. There will always be
people who will not be able to attend it, so maybe two sessions? Every week,
but once on for example a Wednesday, and the other times on Sunday. 

 

Matthew

Technical point : what about a jabber chat room ?
Easy to join with Pidgin and other free tools, no ?

* Ok, allow me to propose an IRC meeting time, to get the IRC meeting
time ideas flowing: how about every Sunday from 19h 'til 20h ?

* I suggest drawing some attention to this meeting on the website, and
putting a Javascript-based IRC chat window on there (ideally, only
visible during the meeting). That way, we keep the threshold to
participate as low as possible.

* In general, I think it'll always be a challenge to keep this meeting
short & focused - but it's certainly doable. Some idea's:
- Keeping direction by appointing a meeting leader & a secretary.
- Allowing people to edit the agenda for the meeting on a wiki, and
sticking to that agenda while the meeting is in progress.
- The meeting leader can put the agenda-topic in the IRC channel's topic
to keep us from side tracking.
