Hi Charlie:
I'm a bit confused about the time (Your table of cities got split in the
message). Is it UTC 14:00?
Perhaps you could use the timeanddate.com website:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=7&day=30&year=2010&hour=14&min=0&sec=0&p1=0
Other OSGeo meetings are sometimes scheduled with the help of the online
meeting planner: www.doodle.com . This helps to synchronize a time slot
for everyone.
Looking forward to next Friday,
Micha
