Hi again, So the poll results are in, and the winning date is: Saturday, November 16 @ 18:00 UTC Actually, on paper the poll has a tie, with the other time being Tuesday, November 12 @ 19:30 UTC. However, there are two reasons for Saturday to win anyway: - The original set of poll options were based on times that both Patty and I knew we could make it; since then, Patty has had a standing conflict come up at work, so she can no longer make the Tuesday time slot. She would be able to do 20:00 UTC instead, so if there's consensus that this would work we could switch to this time after November, but I didn't want to reset the poll after a bunch of people had already voted. - For this month in particular, I've been called up for jury duty on November 12, so there's no way I could make it either. While I'm all in favor of the DebConf team depending on the two of us as little as possible ;), I guess it might be best to not have both of us completely out of the loop for the meetings. We can discuss at the meeting whether those in attendance would prefer the Tuesday @ 20:00 slot going forward from December.
