<BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Hi Ralf,<BR><BR>The CTCNet conference ends on the afternoon of the 13th, so that morning <BR>Seattle time, (ie late afternoon Berlin time), would make the most sense. <BR>CTCNet has kindly offered to let us use their PC lab to participate in a <BR>virtual meeting that morning; we would simply have to supply the platform <BR>and any necessary media capture devices (namely a microphone and/or PC <BR>video camera). I'm also exploring the possibility of holding an informal <BR>"birds of a feather" meeting at CTCNet that saturday afternoon as well. <BR>So I don't think we should necessarily try to each stream our entire <BR>meetings; rather, we should set aside a particular time with a structured <BR>list of issues/topics to discuss over the course of an hour or so.<BR><BR>We've just started talking with Derrick Cogburn about virtual <BR>collaboration tools for holding the meeting;

I thought of a brief exchange<BR>of reports on both conferences. Maybe we can also get someone from the<BR>Wizards of OS conference to report on their outcomes. Let's keep in<BR>touch.<BR><BR>Best,
