If I were to try to pull some conclusions out of this thread it would be that an IRC meeting is effective when we have the following ingredients: 1. We are looking for real time, highly interactive discussion 2. with a focus on decision making 3. on a topic that has had pre-meeting discussion on the mailing lists 4. and the right set of people are able to attend 5. with a writeup, summarized for human beings, after.
Did I miss an ingredient?

+1 with a slight variation to #5... published widely to include at least -project ML + news.o.o. to get more people aware and potentially interested in joining in on the conversations.

Excellent Alan's conclusions + Bryen's proposal to publish it widely (project ML+news.o.o)
I think sometimes we miss #2 and #3 and consequently the meeting get a weak for attending or participation.
If we are able to focus on the specific task we are goig to achive more (disregards what's the area or level).

I guess it's just a matter of marketing and time. The first one can be changed to a better solution, the second one would be difficult. marketing - We announce the meeting over the calendar. I guess far too many people don't note that item or just oversee it. So, an article with a log of the meeting *and* the date for the _next_ meeting would help to motivate more people to attend IMHO. -- Kim Leyendecker, openSUSE Wiki Team GPG Key: 664265369547B825 | leyendecker@opensuse.org http://www.opensuse.org - Linux for open minds -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
