We currently do 2-3 on Wednesday.

2-3 US east coast time, if that's not clear. As in the meeting just ended.
10 AM in US east cost might be better for those in IST. Can someone kindly start posting the irc logs for the meetings too?

An important consideration is the official meeting channel schedule[1]. If we want to continue to have the meetings in #fedora-meeting, we should be mindful of this.
Else, we could pick any time and have the meetings on a different channel. Preferably GimpNet, since it seems most of the desktop hackers are on #fedora-desktop there and forget to join #fedora-meeting for this meeting.

I would be up for using a different channel just because it would be easier to post irc logs. right now, getting the logs means sifting through all the other meetings so I never volunteer when mether asks for them.

Having all the meetings in one channel was done so people who wanted to stay informed of multiple parts of fedora could log one channel to see what was going on. This helps to spread your message outside of your particular group to the larger community.

+1 I sit in #fedora-meeting to monitor for certain keywords on purpose.

If we're in the position where we need to make a call between letting more people participate vs. letting more people lurk, I'm going to vote to move our meetings to a different channel.
The prime #fedora-meeting spots have been largely taken, which makes it harder to work around schedules.

That's definitely one valid point. A counter is that people who are working together will find ways of communicating with each other outside of meetings whereas people who are more peripheral to the decision making need the focus of a meeting to be able to know where to go to see what's being discussed by whom.

You need to be careful of that, though. It also means that people who may have wanted to participate are unable to because they're already in another meeting.
That said, maybe it is time to have a #fedora-meeting2.

It's a problem, but something that we're going to have to face at some point anyway as Fedora grows.
I merely brought up the channel thing because the existing time was chosen as it best fit many people's schedules within the constraints. Changing the time might mean changing the constraints and moving to a different channel.

One thing that might be interesting would be if #fedora-meeting could have a bot that does logging automatically and puts them up somewhere.
I've seen irc meetings before where they do things like
docbot start meeting docbot stop meeting
and it automatically posts logs somewhere. If we had that kind of bot, then everyone who used #fedora-meeting could benefit from it.

Absolutely. People have been mentioning this possibility since the channel was created but so far no one has implemented it.

Maybe we can just steal i18nbot from #eng-i18n

I hacked on such a bot awhile ago. Let me see if I can revive it and make it useful.
