Robyn mentioned to me that the cloud sig meeting isn't at a very convenient time for many people. I'm not a big fan of Friday afternoon meetings, myself, and for the EU people giving up Friday night can't be the most pleasant.
Since I'm going to be relieving Robyn of the illustrious duty of facilitating the meeting, I thought this'd be a good time to figure out a time that might work better.
I threw up http://whenisgood.net/fedoracloudmeeting to help figure out a good time -- if you could take a few seconds to go there and send the times that generally work for you, hopefully we can figure out something better.
Thanks!

Hey, uh, I had inadvertently excluded Monday. Like some sort of cartoon cat, I am not particularly fond of Mondays (especially for meetings) but did not mean to leave it out as a possibility entirely. If you *are* around on Monday and already answered, if you feel like adding that in as a possibility please revisit. Sorry about that. :)
Preference will still be for not-Monday.
Whoo global scheduling is hard. Hopefully we can find a time which works for most people. If we arrive at a time that doesn't work out for some people, I'll make sure I can be a proxy voice for those concerns.
In the meantime, let's do the meeting tomorrow as normal.
It looks like the least-conflict-ridden times are 14:00 UTC Wednesday (10am EDT) and 20:00 UTC Tuesday (4pm EDT).
Because the later slots are popular in the meeting channel, what I'd like to propose is moving the official meeting to 14:00UTC Wednesday, and then also having a standing "semi-official" meeting in the cloud channel Tuesday at 20:00UTC.
This is less ideal than having everyone together, but the two time slots should cover everyone who responded. Sound good?
Hi Matt,
I don't think that splitting meetings is a good idea.
Please note that the issue Europe had with previous meeting time would be still not resolved when you decide to have a meeting at 8pm UTC. This means that East Europe (me, Poland) will need to join the meeting at 10pm...
So, I vote for 2pm UTC, Wednesday.

Well, it's not ideal, but we have people on the opposite side of the world from you who want to participate too. There's just not a time that *can* work for everyone.
So, I vote for 2pm UTC, Wednesday.
That's the suggestion, yes -- but also, a semi-official standing meeting at 8pm UTC Tuesday. If you have an alternate idea for including everyone for whom 2pm UTC Wednesday doesn't work, I'm definitely open to it.
Are there particular concerns with having the side meeting that need to be addressed?

Do we have people in APAC? I know you said something about the meeting channel being used on some of the days when it would be a good time, was that just #fedora-meeting or the -1 channel too?

-1 is free except for on Wednesday at 10pm UTC. But in general, I think the earlier timeslots are better for most people anyway, except for the West Coast US. And there's an open slot in #fedora-meeting for 2pm UTC Tuesday.
I don't think we have anyone from APAC represented, but now's a good time to speak up if it's you.

As someone on the US's West coast, I would be okay with a later "catch-up" meeting as long as people also communicate on the mailing list. My greatest concern is communication with release engineering, who produce Fedora's cloud images, as historically the cloud SIG meetings have been crucial for that.

Good point. I'll ping the rel eng people about the meeting time. (Meanwhile, not planning on a meeting today....)

From an Openstack perspective, it is pretty much essential that the people doing the Fedora specific work are able to attend. These are clustered in Europe. I know I talked about it with , who I think if I had to say any one person that should attend it would be pixelbeat, as he maintains majority of the the packages in Openstack. He's in Ireland, and was not able to make the Friday meetings. apevec and russellb are also on the short list, and are also both in Europe. Please take this into account when scheduling the meeting.

Yes, making it more convenient for the European contributors is the primary reason for rescheduling. Hopefully the new time will work better for everyone.

Not to dice hairs - but I am pretty sure russellb lives in North America, unless something totally wacky has happened :)
