<tt>Hi Gavin,<br>
<br>
I understand that you have had this scheduled for a while and are
expecting a good turnout.<br>
If the earlier time compromised that I completely agree that
something else would need<br>
to be considered. (IMHO I think the late scheduling change aspect
could be<br>
handled, there is plenty of last minute on and off about calls on
this list.)<br>
<br>
It could be useful to identify a spillover time slot, if the team
needs it, during the week.<br>
There is a lot to talk about and it's hard to watch contention
caused by trying<br>
to fit everything into one hour. That 8amMT slot is a decent
candidate since the METAFOR<br>
calls were at that time and just recently ended, freeing up some
people who used to attend<br>
both. I know it's hardest on the W Coasters.<br>
<br>
Could we set up a doodle and make sure that the people who want to
see the p2p<br>
demo could do it at the 8amMT time? And maybe use the opportunity
to check other<br>
days of the week for options when talking can happen if talking
needs to be more<br>
than an hour? Might be good to use it for other go-essp matters
as well.<br>
<br>
That said, I'm not sure who makes the final decisions on the
schedule but will not<br>
be offended by being overruled...<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Cecelia<br>

Cecilia, <br>
<br>
I would like us to keep the usual scheduled time of 8-9am PDT for
demonstrating the P2P system.<br>
This would avoid confusion and ensure that we get the appropriate
audience. The matrix discussion can be scheduled for another
time. Both these topics are important and should be addressed
when everyone can be present. Moving the time <i>at this late
date</i> may introduce inadvertent confusion.<br>
<br>
Not to be contrary, however, I think it is important to stick to
the usual time. The 8-9PDT hour is and has been the best <i>compromise</i>
to optimize attendance considering the disparate time zones.
Perhaps we can schedule the other meeting for the following
Tuesday, January 31st at 8-9PDT?<br>
<br>
Thanks. <br>

<pre wrap="">Hi Stephen, I should have put MT on the times for our local time. My
intent was to propose
the hour before, 8-9MT/7-8PT, for the p2p, and the usual hour
9-10MT/8-9PT for the matrix.
That order would make sense too for the discussion.
Best, Cecelia
