[ubuntu-za] Meetings

[Hugh Jacobs]

I'm sorry, but if you guys are gonna be planning meetings like this
I'm gonna have to drop out of the team. I dont want to, but i do feel
that announcing a meeting on the day of the meeting is unreasonable,
there should be at least one week notice.

Furthermore, better times need to be set. 90% of the working
population will be stuck in traffic at 4pm, myself included. try to
make an effort so that a team can actually be there for a meeting, not
just yourself and one of your friends. if we are gonna have an
effective team, we need to start working as a team. that includes fair
warnings of meetings and reasonable meeting times. weekday meetings
should be left till after business hours, and should be announced a
week in advance.

obviously, not everyone can make it to all the meetings, but setting
bizaar times along with no fore-warning will cause there to be a
dismal appearance. so yeah, i cant make it to this meeting, but will
try to make it to the other ones.

i've made this point before, which it obviously fell on deaf ears. so
make an effort, otherwise people wont make the effort. i really want
to be a part of this team and get things off the ground, but this will
not happen until we start acting like a team, and organising such
events as a team.

Yours sincerely,
Hugh Jacobs
