I wont attend these meetings, as I have nothing to say, but I'm in the channel anyway.

How's that table so difficult to understand? I thought it's quite intuitive.

I took me all of five seconds to figure out that GMT is 7 hours ahead
of California and therefore only 4 hours ahead of us East Coasters.
So the meeting times are either noon EST, or 5 PM EST, or 8 PM EST.

We'll wait until we have thirty votes to finalize a time (on each Saturday).

I assume that, if we do have a meeting, it will be during the weekend.
I think 16 GMT is fairly reasonable. I'm currently thinking of Great
Britain and Ukraine and the times seem good for both countries to me.
However the US is another problem. So ideal would be something like 19
GMT then?

19 GMT is right around lunch time for us West Coasters in the States, so it's not great.
I still prefer 21 GMT, and it looks like this time is getting most of the votes anyway.

i will eventually get IRC. so probably british standard time. ususally only at weekends because i spend four hours a day on the weekdays playing CSS unless i go out.
so after 21:00 on the weekends and holidays seem good, when i get irc!

Thanksgiving isn't until Nov. 24, unless you celebrate another kind of thanks and givings.

Just a reminder. The first official SnarkPit IRC chat fest is
later on today. Come crash the party if you're near your computer
at 21:00 GMT.
