[tools-pmc] Proposed Meeting times ...

[David M Williams <david_williams@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Doug, 

Looks like we are settling on Second
Wednesdays, 11 AM (Eastern) ... unless John objects (and we have to start
over :) 
That'd make our first meeting December
11.  

In the mean time, I've asked the Eclipse
Foundation for a "dedicated Asterisk number".

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=422882
I'm assuming that's accessible for everyone
and adequate for our needs. 

If we don't hear from John soon, I'll
go ahead and "send" a meeting invite, using everyone's email
used to reply to these notes (if you have another email address, that's
better for "calendar events") let me know. [I don't even know
how my calendar invites work as well as they do ... guess its sends in
ics file or something]. 

Thanks again,

I have a running conflict with Thursdays
at 11 (pain for arch council too). Wednesdays at 11 are great for me.

That's easy. I updated the "worksheet"
at
https://wiki.eclipse.org/Tools_PMC_Meeting_TimesWorksheet

Looks like we are "tied" for 

Second Wednesdays, 11 AM (Eastern) 
Second Thursdays, 11 AM (Eastern) 

and just waiting for John and Doug to weigh-in. 

With any luck, we won't need any of those newfangled doodle tools :) 

Thanks,

Its official! 

The EMO has given final approval and added our new members to their database,
see
http://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools/developers

So welcome to Andrew Clement, Alexander Kurtakov, Eric Clayberg and Greg
Watson to the Tools PMC. Thanks for agreeing to take on this role. 

(And, belatedly, thanks Anthony for your many years of service). 

As a first order of business ... new members, make sure you are subscribed
to "tools-pmc" list (I don't know if its automatic, or not, or
perhaps you already were). 

Second order of business ... let's plan some meetings! We (me, John and
Doug) thought best to have regularly scheduled meetings for several months
(such as once per month) ... and then perhaps shift back to the "if
no agenda, no meeting" mode. But to get things started, get acquainted,
transfer knowledge, answer questions, etc., probably best to have some
scheduled whether there is a specific agenda or not. 

Now the hard part ... when? I think we span a wide time zone range (Pacific
time, UTC-8?, to EET time UTC+2?) so we will do what we can. 
I will throw out some suggestions, and then let others state preferences
and/or make other suggestions. 

First, I suggest we find a "day of the month" that is relatively
open for most of us ... say "Second Tuesday" or "Third Thursday"?
(those both work for me, many others would too, depending on the time of
day we meet). 

As for what time of day to meet, I think 11 PM (Eastern) sort of "splits
the difference" in time zones ... but, please correct me if I am wrong
or offer a counter suggestion if another time would be better for majority.
(If impossible to find a good time for all, we can always alternate, where
one month its 9 AM, and next month its 3 PM; or something, just so its
more or less convenient for everyone at some point in time. I know on other
projects,  some in "far away" time zones preferred later,
so as to not interfere with their family dinner! :) So, feel free to make
what ever suggestions work best for you). 

I suggest we try to have first meeting in December, but realize that's
a busy month, with deadlines and holidays, so fine if our first one is
in January. 

I'll leave it at that, for now, except to say I look forward to working
with you all. 

Welcome! 

P.S. BTW, if you do have specific questions, there's no need to wait for
a meeting ... feel free to ask here on this tools-pmc list (or email, if
appropriate).
