Actually I think this can be an agenda item for next week's meeting:

Oliver it's a bit last minute but I wanted to discuss some issues that have
come up with enterprise and the multi-desktop nature of the GNOME
platform...

Btw, awesome idea to have an etherpad entry for these meetings, good call.
Okay, it seems I'll have to arrange a separate meeting for this in that

Okay, so do you have any recommendations on how additional virtual events
could be added that complement these physical events?

If anyone wants to discuss this please let me know and I'll jump on to IRC

That would be great if he could join the meeting and if not we should setup
an additional meeting so we discuss this further.

Oliver,
Tentatively confirming I'll be there but I may not due to work
schedule...Also are you guys trying out the Mumble server? Look forward to
