Remember to come prepared. This meeting is about making decisions, not about discussions.

[Hyronymus]

Would it be an option to make this a moderated meeting, Hellfire? If people refuse to obey the meeting rules you can mute them. Although I can't make it tonight I like to urge everyone to come prepared. I know Hellfire asked that already but I figured a double request counts 4x for 1 person (according to a dutch saying).

[Hellfire]

Something has come up in my personal life. .

I must take care of some things tonight, or else really bad things might happen. This means I won't be at the meeting.

Please make decisions tonight. Try to keep discussions at a minimum.

Also, a personal note: don't discuss triangles vs. squares at the meeting. The discussion on the forum isn't over yet.

[ChrisCF]

I won't be there - combination of putting together a radio show, and preparing the house for a prospective buyer visit tomorrow. If you're still around at 11.30(UK time), I'd recommend listening in

[PJayTycy]

I won't be at the meeting tonight. I came back from holiday this morning, slept this afternoon, didn't read any discussion in the developpers forum and I'm visiting my girlfriend this evening.

I might drop in around 21:15 UTC though, when I'm home again.


I'm sorry to miss this meeting -again-, but the decisions in the previous meetings all seem good to me.

[Hyronymus]

Maybe we should cancel the meeting and have it being held next week. I honestly think better decissions will be made then.

Take care of your problems, Hellfire. Don't rush things if you don't have to.

[Zuu]

I can be there, and I can take the chair.

If at least 3 other people show up we can hold the meeting I think. Our meeting rules does not take up a minimum, but the last meeting was aborted when there was only 3 people left. So 4 would be the minimum I think.

But I have no objections aginst canceling it.

[Steve]

I don't think it's fair to make decisions when 4 of the big guys are away. But i don't want to delay the meeting. I suggest that we have it, and record decisions in the meetings and then see if anyone has major problems with such decisions.

Oh, and decide here when the next meeting will be, lets choose a more successful time!

[Zuu]

I don't think it's fair to make decisions when 4 of the big guys are away.

I agree.

But i don't want to delay the meeting.

Agree.
