[00:15] <AlanBell> czajkowski: I rejoined the other channel
[03:50] <pleia2> k, sent out mail about meeting times
[03:55] <IdleOne> mail received
[03:56] <pleia2> syn
[04:00] <IdleOne> anybody else notice that 8PM is missing on the poll?
[04:00] <pleia2> do you realize how hard 00:00 UTC meetings are?
[04:00] <pleia2> no one knows what day they are on
[04:00] <pleia2> it's really terrible
[04:00] <pleia2> for instance, IdleOne didn't show up for his membership board meeting
[04:00] <IdleOne> lol
[04:00] <pleia2> :)
[04:01] <IdleOne> right, I forgot :P
[04:01] <pleia2> it's sad, since 00:00 UTC is 5PM for me, such *perfect* meeting time for me!
[04:02] <IdleOne> yeah it works out to be a good time for me also
[04:02] <IdleOne> if I can figure out what day it is
[04:02] <pleia2> heheh
[04:03] <IdleOne> so anyway poll filled out by me
[04:03] <pleia2> yay thanks
[04:10] <nhandler> pleia2: You should have changed that time to 23:59 like we did for the RMB
[04:11] <pleia2> nhandler: not actually worth the trouble, I doubt our meeting time will land that late anyway
[04:12] <elky> pleia2, it helps if someone puts out a timeanddate.com link, rather than just a time.
[04:13] <pleia2> elky: not really
[04:13] <pleia2> that RMB meeting we had was very specific, included time and date link, a note that said "this is thursday evening!" and everything
[04:13] <pleia2> still half the potential members got it wrong
[04:13] <elky> :(
[04:13] <elky> Imagine if you /hadn't/
[04:14] <pleia2> I just came to the conclusion that humans are bad at time zones :)
[04:14] <elky> We could just revert to the old way of dealing with time, and update our watches every km east or west we go.
[04:14] <pleia2> lol
[04:15] <elky> Everyone talking exclusively in Local Time; what could possibly go wrong?
[04:15] <pleia2> meetings are better if we show up at different times anyway
[04:16] <elky> Much quicker!
[04:16] <pleia2> I ended up putting 3 time zones in my xfce panel, local, UTC and US Eastern (where my boss is)
[04:17] <elky> Yeah, I have several times in gnome calendar clocky thingie
[04:17] <pleia2> it's easy to *say* my boss is 3 hours ahead, but for some reason simple math frequently fails me
[04:17] <elky> Local, UTC and NZ where the majority of the company is.
[04:17]  * pleia2 nods
[04:18] <elky> Anyway, someone's just brought food smells in and my stomach has convinced itself my throat's been cut.
[04:19]  * pleia2 should figure out about dinner soon
[04:33] <maco> IdleOne: the rmb is now set for 23:59 UTC ;-)
[04:34] <IdleOne> maco: Been there, done that. :)
[04:35] <maco> pleia2: i have 3 too. local, britain, and most-of-europe
[18:35] <pleia2> just a reminder, if anyone has anything to add, please do: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/ReportingPage

[19:02] <czajkowski> pleia2: reports are going to kick ass this month
[19:04] <pleia2> czajkowski: I hope so :)
[20:06] <czajkowski> oh I just ate too much
[20:06] <czajkowski> ugh
