Folks,
just to throw in another idea: "distributed meeting".
I.e. to meet in parallel continent-wise to reduce travel distances to
a minimum, to get directors together in chunks, and to connect
the group via electronic communication media.
Concretely (modifications according to travel schedule):
* Section Europe:
* Arnulf Christl
* Ari Jolma
* Markus Neteler
* Section India:
* Ravi Kumar (perhaps Ravi coming to Europe for this?)
* Section Northern America
* Howard Butler
* Frank Warmerdam
* Chris Schmidt
* Geoff Zeiss
* Jeff McKenna
We would get enough overlap to have hours of joint video
conferencing and leave the ours out-of-sync for local
discussions. Would also reduce our CO2 impact.
Why? It would definitely be more productive for me to be in
a dedicated place with some other directors than doing
skype conf'ing from my office or being surrounded by my kids :)
YAI (yet another idea),
Markus
