Let's do it.

We should definitely plan around the committed few, and then invite
those interested based on the optimal time for the core group.
We did a scheduling exercise a while back using a time grid on the
wiki. Should we use that technique again?
If yes, I'll set up the page.
I was playing with Google Calendar and wanted to use this resource in
the future. John helpfully tried setting up a conflict resolver there,
but once we get more than a couple people involved it could look really
ugly, and since the calendar is set up to notify fedora-docs-list, that
could *really* be a hoot. So I set up this page instead, based on
Toshio's template:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/SteeringCommittee/Meetings/Sche...
Here's what I would suggest:
* Mark your initials (JB, PWF, etc.) in any box where you CAN'T attend.
* Remember this is UTC!
* Once everyone's done, we try and pick a box where key contributors CAN
attend (i.e. their initials don't appear in the box), and as few other
initials appear as possible.
Kosher?
