Most of our trustees are based in the us, there's only a few who aren't, |
| 2 |
and if we set the meetings to once a month, or every two months, I don't |
| 3 |
think it will be that expensive. While irc is nice in a lot of cases, |
| 4 |
even smaller groups like the free standards accessibility group hold |
| 5 |
regular phone conferences. Since we can't exactly go across the street |
| 6 |
and have a face to face meeting, I think that something like a phone |
| 7 |
conference would help build a better working relationship. |
