The time and choice of time, occasionally the method to choose the time (aka votes), seem to have created some turmoil in the past.Now, let me introduce a new take on that: Recurring Drop-in. Recurring: A fixed, recurring schedule. Drop-in: You are free to show up or not. So, it happens at a fixed schedule, but you can attend as you see fit.This isn't too worse than status quo: we already, practically, attend at will and by chance.
Recurring: sure, that's we kinda ended up on.
As for the schedule, I suggest we have it biweekly, one at a far negative time zones friendly time, one at a far positive time zones friendly time, so people at both zone ranges could have equal chance, and effectively have a monthly meeting, except for those who are enthusiastic enough to show up on both ends. (For people near +0, hi! I hope it doesn't annoy you too much. If it does, please speak up.)Not sure about two meets in diff timezones. I agree that this is a pain, however I agree that this will lead to people missing info.
If more meetings shall happen I would like someone else to be organizing them; I am more busy these days and won't be as active for forky.
best, werdahias
