Time zone
I got the offsets for everyone (I think everyone 
)
Kathmandu, Nepal - Standard time zone: UTC/GMT +5:45 hours
Adelaide, Australia - Standard time zone: UTC/GMT +9:30 hours
Hartford, USA - Current time zone offset: UTC/GMT -4 hours
Bangalore, India - Standard time zone: UTC/GMT +5:30 hours
Metairie, Louisiana, USA - Current time zone offset: UTC/GMT -5 hours
So, 3.55PM GMT/UTC/Zulu time on friday, it'd be -
Kathmandu - 9pm friday
Adelaide - 1.25am saturday
Hartford - 11.55am friday
Metairie - 10.55am friday
Bangalore - 8.45pm friday
If there is anyone's timezone I've missed, just drop a note into /Discussion
Agenda
We need to set an agenda... otherwise meetings will tend to go offtopic and also helps member be better prepared before hand.
How many meetings/month?
Two sounds good?
Yes, we've agreed on 2 every month - First and Third Friday of every month
Need for meeting
Below is a conversation on IRC that took between r11t and nepbabu.
| nepbabu | it's hard to avoid situations like that sometimes | |
| r11t | will be good as long as everyone reaches a common agreement | |
| nepbabu | yup | |
| r11t | nepbabu will be a bit tricky for us setting good time | |
| r11t | since we are scattered in terms of time zone | |
| r11t | also I like the idea having an agenda before the meeting so that everyone is prepared and has thought about their stance on something | |
| nepbabu | yes | |
| nepbabu | agenda is necessary |
A meeting should be organised over IRC to organise various events with proper agenda so that members are at least prepared well before the meeting takes place.
