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/Scheduler

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?
