Summary by Michael Schönitzer (WMDE)

We have a second time slot now and we'll see how this works out.

For me this meeting starts at 3am. Could you please move the time or create a second meeting at a time that is more convenient to Asia and Oceania?

Hi @Gryllida, thanks for your interest in this meeting! We are going to discuss the options to offer a second meeting and will let you know (it might take us a bit, though). - best, Birgit

Hi Birgit. Thanks. Look forward to your suggestions. 5AM my time would already be OK, I wake up early some days. And please check DST (wouldn't want to see it 5AM, then DST happens and it moves to 3AM again). :-)

Hi @Gryllida, not yet, it will take us a while to discuss this, sorry! We only can offer a second meeting if we're 100% sure we have the resources/time to do that regularly. Moving the current time of the meeting most likely isn't an option, as it works pretty well for some regions including our own (Europe, Africa, South America, parts of Asia ...) (but of course not for all). But if you have anything urgent, you could also ask at , some of the hosts of the Technical Advice IRC Meeting are answering there as well :-). I won't be around in the next 2 weeks, but I'll continue discussing this with the team when I'm back!

To make it easier for you, we could make the additional meeting monthly rather than weekly - which is at a timezone that is more comfortable for people who live in Asia and Oceania.

Hi @Gryllida, sorry that it took us quite a while! We will start with an additional meeting on a monthly basis on August 1st - the time is 23:00 UTC! Hope to see you there :-)
