Thanks for adding me to the list.  The meetings sound like a great 
idea.

That will be 4am for me, so I won't be able to attend live.

A meeting that starts any time between 12am-8.30am or between 
6.30pm-12am any day (UTC-4) should work for me.  The windows will 
shift to the left by one hour when we enter daylight saving in 
early October and another hour in early November when you stop 
saving daylight.

Alternatively if there are discussions on any IRC channel during 
the meetings I can also send scheduled messages, which is how I 
handle the licensing meetings which also take place while I'm 
asleep.

I can certainly send scheduled messages to report how things are 
going.
